About this property

Newly Remodeled - Dream Lake Home on Cedar Creek Reservoir 60 mins from Dallas!

Note - this property has been off the VRBO market for the past year for remodeling and is just now coming available. The previous listing review: Wonderful! 4.8/5

This home is the perfect getaway spot for your family!

We understand the need get away and take a break in a safe, serene setting with your family. Now, all you need to do is come and relax, sit back with your feet up, and take in the beautiful lake views. Let the kids run in the fenced lakeside yard, fish off the dock, and for the hearty, enjoy a splash in the water.

You can swim in the lake right from the yard or fish from the dock. Cedar Creek Lake fishing guides believe fishing under at our dock to be one of the best places to fish on the lake. Boating and jet skiing make for good times in our protected waters.

Our lake home has 3 private bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, plus 2 additional sleeping areas:
- The are 2 master bedrooms that each have their own private bathroom, a king-sized bed, and private access to the deck with a lake view. One of these has bedrooms has an extra-long twin bed.
- The third bedroom has a king-sized bed and an extra-long twin bed.
- The third shared bathroom has been recently remodeled and has a tub / shower.
- The enclosed front entry has a queen futon. The house has 4 doors to the outside. So, if our guests use the enclosed porch for sleeping, they can have their privacy as there are 3 other doors to the deck!
- The loft offers sleeping for 4 and access is by ladder for the young at heart.

We have rental watercraft available at our lake home. Rental is arranged separately:
Sit-on-top Kayak (Two Person)
Sit-in Kayak (One Person)
Standup Paddle Board
Paddles and Life Vests
MAKE REQUESTS DIRECTLY WITH OWNER with payment arranged separately for these items.

We have a huge 50' covered deck looking out over the water allowing you to eat and play comfortably during any season or weather. You will be able to enjoy your family and friends with all the sights and sounds of deep water right in your back yard! The grill is new and has a spare LP tank. In the Fall and Winter, you have the warmth of the fireplace, or you can roast marshmallows over a fire in the fire pit.

The kitchen and family room were designed for entertaining! The large open area has tons of seating and many say the experience is like being on a boat with floor to ceiling views of the lake. There are two dishwashers, two washing machines, and two dryers to keep up with your needs!

We are located on the south end of Cedar Creek Lake where we enjoy deep, deep water. The water is typically 9 feet deep. The lake was down 5 feet during the 2022 summer drought, and we still had 4 to 5 feet of water under the dock!

The Pinnacle Golf Club is less than 1 mile away and is open to the public.

There is a boat ramp in our subdivision for launching watercraft and several large public boat ramps nearby.

Perfect Lake House

I loved staying at this house. The views were great. It had the best stocked kitchen I've ever seen in a vrbo and the hosts were responsive. I'd love to come back in the warmer months and experience the lake.

2024 Family Christmas

My family and I had a wonderful and relaxing holiday at this beautiful lakefront property. The house was extremely clean (even the back deck area), the kitchen was very well stocked and the rooms were all inviting and comfortable. The view from the living room is breathtaking and there are small amenities (games, movies, and a hammock on the back deck) that make this property even that much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this property, whether you are looking for a nice peaceful getaway for adults or a place for families with children.

Phenomenal stay!

This was by far the most beautiful lake house we have stayed at. It was extremely well stocked with anything you could need. Plenty of sitting spots outside and in to take in the lake views. The fenced in yard is great for bringing your dog! The steps into the lake allowed our dog to easily going in and out of the lake with us. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Great place for a family or group getaway

This is a great place to relax both inside and outside with a large porch that stretches across the entire back of the house. There are plenty of chairs and the view of the lake is great! We even got to see a few fireworks. We enjoyed most of our time reading, relaxing, playing games, working a jigsaw puzzle we brought and taking in the view of the lake. We ate all our meals on site and even took advantage of the grill. Plenty of pots and pans and utensils available. The owners have thought of many little details to make your stay like being at home. Great place and great weekend!

Great fishing day!

Weekend stay at the lake house with kids, grandparents and friends! Fishing and kayaking took up most of the day. We caught quite a few fish right off the boat dock, too. The house was perfect for a large group with a nice open floor plan. Mornings by the lake with a nice cup of hot coffee are my favorite way to relax. It was just beautiful!

Son's 30th Birthday!

When my son and I pulled up to the property the first thing that caught our eye was the view through the kitchen window. We could see the lake!! When we got inside...The home is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. The view is breathtaking!! My son came to me and said, "Mom, I love it. It's perfect." It had plenty of seating inside and out. Fenced in yard, which was perfect for his dog. Propane grill, which was the best! The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and well stocked. My son loved the master shower with the additional overhead shower head. :) The kitchen was welled stocked and SUPER user friendly. Overall... we truly enjoyed our stay there!! Thank you so very much John and Shelley!

Just perfect

Our family of 6 plus the dog thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The lake house was clean, well stocked (I mean REALLY well stocked) and so comfortable! I have been in other VRBOs where the furniture had no springs and we had to provide our own toilet paper. This was NOT the case. We had everything we could possibly need, even bitters and cherries for cocktails! The views of the sunsets were spectacular. My husband was the only one getting up early enough for the sunrise. I’ll trust his word that they were beautiful too. We spent our evenings roasting marshmallows around the fire pit with not a video game or cell phone in sight. The men took the kayaks out and caught catfish. Nice walks through the East Texas arboretum in Athens where the dogwoods were all in bloom. We girls hit Tara Vineyard for our final afternoon there for some mother daughter time. Our host was so responsive and helpful. We didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!!!
