About this property

Family Friendly Lakehouse Cedar Creek Lake

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful lakehouse. Come and play at Cedar Creek Lake. Great lake house for families and friends to get away from city life. Located about 90 mins from Dallas. Enjoy the lake on the boat dock, or take a swim or paddle on the kayaks. When not enjoying the water, play in the yard or the wooden fort swing set for the kids & basketball goal. 2 of the upstairs bedrooms open up onto the upstairs balcony with a great view of the lake for additional relaxation space

We have 4 bedrooms. The Master has a king bed. 2 of the upstairs bedrooms have queen beds and the 3rd upstairs bedroom has 2 twins. The living room has a pull-out bed (queen) and the love seat (twin) has a pull-out bed.
3 people can sleep in the living room on the couch and loveseat.
The pull-out beds are best for kids but adults can use them too.
