We had our Thanksgiving reunion with my family, families of my two brothers and my dad. We all enjoyed the spacious house, pool table, lots of puzzles, fully equipped kitchen, and the kayaks. The beds are decent enough. Clean bathrooms with quick hot water. They provided firewood, starters so we enjoyed wood burning fireplace and smores. To summarize, this is a lovely home to stay with a large group of family and friends. Would happily stay again!

Cedar Creek Trip

It was a great place for our group of 12 adults. The new appliances were fabulous in the kitchen. We enjoyed the fire pit, the deck, and the lily pad. Lots of room to spread out, but plenty or room in the common areas to be together. Our visit to Triple N Winery was an added bonus,

About the host

Hosted by Karl-Henry M

Host profile image
I am originally from Sweden, and have been living in the United States for 22 years now. Our family enjoys our time at the lake, usually during the off-season. I am a software developer who I work hard and I play hard. I travel a lot, both to go home to visit family in the summers and for work reasons at other times. I rent the lake house when I am away so that others can enjoy it when I can't.

Why they chose this property

We have been renting vacation rentals for many years ourselves and this property gives us so much of what we love about vacation rentals - the views, the sounds and the character of the home.

What makes this property unique

The 180+ degree views of the water! The gorgeous large kitchen and the water views really captured us, but overall this home has so much to offer our family.
