About the host
Hosted by Pam Tolbert
My husband and I bought this lake house to enjoy with our family and friends. We decided to make it available to others, as we do not live there full time.
We want our property to be a place for making memories and enjoying a relaxing getaway. We hope that our renters will value the property and treat it as if it were their home while visiting.
The large spacious home with guest house provides plenty of room for large family gatherings to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions.
Why they chose this property
When we started looking for lake property, we viewed a lot of different locations on Cedar Creek Lake. When we drove into the driveway of this house, I remember thinking "this is it"! The view of the water and the layout of the property was exactly what we had been looking for.
We wanted to be in an area that was easily accessible from the DFW Metroplex, Houston area and Austin/San Antonio areas. Close enough to allow for a weekend visit, and far enough away to provide a break from the daily routine.
Our neighborhood has several full-time residents giving stability and a sense of home to the area.
What makes this property unique
Our house is located on a quiet cove, perfect for water play with less boat traffic than other areas of the lake. The view across our cove is undisturbed nature and provides the perfect backdrop for morning sunrises and nighttime star gazing.
