About this property
Private 3+Acre Compound with 2.5 Homes, Unlike any other!
One booking, two homes, and loft apartment, zero compromises. Our private 3.2-acre compound brings the Roadhouse, the Farmhouse, and the Hideaway bunkhouse together under one reservation — room for up to 20 guests to spread out, gather, and actually enjoy each other.
The Roadhouse offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a loft master with freestanding tub, a screened porch, and an outdoor kitchen. The Farmhouse brings 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a sunroom. The Hideaway, tucked above the detached garage, adds a king bed, a queen bed, a futon, a full bath, and its own kitchen — perfect for teens or couples wanting a little privacy.
Days here are yours to shape: wander the herb and vegetable gardens, pick blackberries in season, challenge the group to horseshoes or badminton, or paddle the cove in our kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards (life jackets included). Evenings gather everyone around the grill and the outdoor spaces — string lights, picnic tables, and room for the whole crew at the table.
A few honest notes: lake levels vary with Texas weather, so we'll give you a straight answer on current water conditions before you arrive. Our fire-pit area is available whenever local burn restrictions allow.
We're minutes from Cedar Creek Lake boat ramps and an easy day trip from Canton First Monday Trade Days. Families, reunions, friend groups, and retreat groups all fit here ...events and large gatherings are welcome with advance discussion.
Prefer just one house? The Farmhouse (VRBO #1365079) and the Roadhouse (VRBO #1361577) each rent separately.

Thank you so much for the wonderful 10/10 review! We’re so happy to hear the property was a great fit for your group and that everyone had plenty of space to relax and enjoy the weekend together.
It was truly a pleasure hosting you and your friends, and we appreciate you choosing Cedar Creek Getaways for your gathering. We hope to welcome you back again for another lake weekend soon!
We had the most amazing time! This home was just amazing and couldn’t have asked for a better place to have my husband’s birthday! The houses were very family friendly and what we needed for our group of adults and young children. Lucinda and her husband Rob were fantastic and very communicative! We will definitely be back!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! It makes us so happy to know Cedar Creek Getaways was part of such a special birthday celebration for your husband. We love that the homes gave your family the space and comfort you needed to celebrate together, especially with both adults and little ones in the group. We truly enjoyed hosting you, and we would be delighted to welcome your family back for another special getaway! 💛
We had a group of 12 stay on this property this weekend for a 50th birthday gathering. The property was perfect for our group! With 2.5 houses, we had plenty of space for everyone to have their own space, cook with friends, and enjoy the views of the lake. We had rain all weekend, and it was perfect! The Roadhouse became our main location to hang out, cook, eat, watch the cove start to fill with water as it rained all day. All three houses were well stocked with everything we needed and more! The beds were all very comfortable and bathrooms were well-stocked as well. Lucinda was a great host and very responsive with any questions we had over the weekend. We will definitely be back as each of our crew asked if we could make this an annual getaway! Thanks Lucinda and team!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We loved having your group at Cedar Creek Getaways for such a special 50th birthday celebration.
I have to say, after how dry it has been, hearing that you sat at the Roadhouse and watched the cove begin to fill with water during the rain made me smile. I’m so glad the weather didn’t slow your group down and that the houses gave everyone the perfect mix of time together and space to relax.
Thank you also for the kind words about the homes and our team. We work hard to make sure everything feels comfortable and well stocked, so that means a lot.
And I absolutely love that everyone is already talking about making it an annual getaway. We would be thrilled to welcome your crew back!
Cheers to beautiful sunsets, rainy weekends, and many more birthdays together!
Beautiful property and perfect for our large family. The lake was pretty low which was unfortunate but not owners fault. We made it work. Everything was clean and we had a good time.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re so happy to hear the property was a great fit for your large family and that everyone had a wonderful time together. We love that families can spread out, relax, enjoy the outdoor spaces, and make memories together around the property.
While the lake level has definitely been unusually low lately, we’re so glad you were still able to enjoy your stay and all the other amenities the property has to offer. We also appreciate you mentioning the cleanliness; our team works very hard to make sure everything is welcoming and comfortable for every guest.
Thank you again for choosing Cedar Creek Getaways, we’d love to welcome your family back again soon!
We had a family reunion here and it was great place for it. Plenty of indoor, outdoor spaces for our family to gather to eat, play and talk.

I am so glad that you chose our properties for your family reunion. We love when our guests enjoy the homes and the 3 plus acres just as much as we do. You were here just before the blackberries were at their juiciest and right after we added the swim/tanning deck down by the water. Come back soon and see what new amenities we have, we are always adding something.
All three properties were clean and well stocked with everything we needed for a fun weekend. The swimming cove was perfect for families with young children.

It was so nice to host your group this summer! Would love for you to come back when the cove has a nice sandy beach. Thank you for taking the time and giving us a 5 Star review! We love hearing how our guests loved the property.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the amenities and found the property in excellent condition. We put a lot of care into making sure everything is just right for our guests, and it means a lot to know it made a difference. We’d love to have you back anytime. Each season brings something new to enjoy at Cedar Creek Lake.
A very well stocked property! Beautiful view of the lake and very cozy.

Thank you! We think mother-daughter weekends should be a required annual event. We're so glad you enjoyed the lake views, cozy atmosphere, and all the little extras. Thanks for choosing Cedar Creek Getaways, and we hope to see you both back for another getaway soon!
What a beautiful property! Our family had a wonderful time and the amenities are fantastic! We had everything we needed to make meals and enjoy a great family vacation on Cedar Creek lake! The Roadhouse, Farmhouse and Hideaway provided cozy environments to relax and sleep soundly. We will definitely return to enjoy more time in this serene and conveniently located property!
This was a perfect location for our small family reunion. Enough space to all be together, but not feel cramped. We really enjoyed the water access right on the property and all the amenities.

Thank you for your five-star review! I’m so glad our place was the perfect spot for your family reunion. It sounds like you had just the right amount of space to enjoy each other’s company without feeling like sardines!
I’m thrilled you loved the water access—we like to think of it as our very own “family fun zone.” And the amenities? We aim to make sure you have everything you need, so you can focus on the important stuff: swimming, snacking, and avoiding those trips to the store.
We’d love to have you back for future gatherings. Give me a call.
This property is beautiful! The houses are fully stocked with everything you need! 5 stars for sure
Beautiful, property. Perfect for any occasion.

Thank you for taking the time to post your review. I also loved reading the beautiful words that you wrote in our onsite book. It was heartwarming along with the lovely thank you card. Can't wait for you to come back!
We held a family reunion here - 14 people. The property is beautiful and the homes are large and well maintained. We are already planning our next trip back.
With three separate locations there was plenty of space for gathering and privacy
Excellent

I so appreciate your "Excellent" review. I think you nailed the best part of our property, which is the many separate areas for people to be together and still have alone time and privacy. Please come back so you can truly enjoy the water and maybe have a bonfire.
The place is amazing! Cove was fantastic for little ones to swim, not too deep and sandy bottom. Perfect for a large gathering/celebration. Houses are all close together and so nicely decorated. Owner was wonderful to work with, gave us great recommendations for so many things, made our reunion a very memorable one!♥️

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the cove to be perfect for little ones with its sandy bottom and shallow depth. It’s great to know that our space worked well for your gathering and that the decorations added to your experience.
We strive to provide exceptional service, so we’re especially glad you found our recommendations helpful. Your kind words about our efforts mean the world to us. That's why we do what we do.
We hope to welcome you and your family back for another memorable reunion in the future!
Our group had the greatest time here! We loved being on the water, relaxing on the shore, the space to spread out in the houses and the opportunity to get away from it all together. The spaces were clean and so well maintained. We just loved it and highly recommend!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We love hearing that your group was able to enjoy everything that makes Cedar Creek Getaways special, from relaxing by the water and spending time on the shore to having plenty of space to spread out and enjoy each other's company.
One of our favorite things about the property is that it feels like you're away from it all while still having all the comforts of home, so we're thrilled that you experienced that. Thank you as well for noticing the care that goes into maintaining the homes and grounds.
We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope we have the opportunity to host another friends getaway for your group in the future!
I cannot say enough positive things about this property and our stay! Lucinda has thought of everything for each home - from extensive spice options, to plenty of blankets, to “to go” containers for leftovers - it was amazing! Very comfortable beds and sofas, many many outdoor seating options, and plenty of kayaks for our large family reunion. LOVED this property! Thank you Lucinda!

Wow, thank you so much for such a thoughtful and generous review! Reading comments like this truly means the world to us. We put a lot of heart into making the homes feel comfortable, welcoming, and fully stocked with the little extras that help guests relax and enjoy their time together, so it makes us incredibly happy that your family reunion was such a success.
We’re especially glad everyone was able to enjoy the outdoor spaces, kayaks, and cozy gathering areas. Thank you again for choosing Cedar Creek Getaways and for taking the time to share your experience. We would absolutely love to host your family again in the future!
The property is amazing. We've stayed at many different VRBOs and they are not always stocked well with basics but this property was stocked with everything you would possibly need. The place is amazing and the whole stay went flawless!!!!

Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear your stay was "flawless"—I guess we must be doing something right! We aim to stock the place better than a squirrel in a nut factory, so it’s great to know you found everything you needed. Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience.
What wonderful homes and location! We enjoyed all the special attention to details, from all the kitchen items to the outdoor games and access to kayaks and the hammock was a favorite place for sure! We enjoyed most evenings by a fire making s’mores. Thanks so much for everything; we all loved it

Thank you so much for choosing The Roadhouse for your Thanksgiving getaway. We are so happy your people loved the hammock and some quality time around the cozy bonfire. Please think of us again and try the atmosphere of a different season. The blackberries in spring are yummy.
Sadly the lake was very low so we didn't have a cove to swim in, rather we walked out closer to the lake and it was mucky and smelly. We didn't realize the lake was low until a couple days before check in. The other issue we had was the master shower was plugged for a few days but once the plumber arrived it was taken care of.The property is beautiful, private and very relaxing for a large family gathering. We had 17 including children and had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the privacy of the space to ourselves.The hosts are lovely people and very responsive when in need of anything. There was PLENTY of firewood, the paper towels and T.P. was GOOD :) sometimes this lacks and the house was stocked with plenty of towels, soaps, spices, dishes, games, etc. etc. etc. Oh and the beds were super comfy. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely return in the future.Thank you Lucinda for sharing your beautiful homes with us!Jodi

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. It was a pleasure hosting your family, and we're so glad the property gave everyone plenty of room to spread out, relax, and enjoy time together.
We appreciate your patience with the shower issue. we got a plumber out to the property as soon as he was able on the holiday weekend, and we're happy it was resolved so you could get back to enjoying your stay.
The lake was definitely experiencing one of its lower seasons during your visit, which can change the experience from year to year. The good news is the water is already back up to our dock, proving just how quickly things can change on the lake!
It means so much to hear that you enjoyed the privacy, comfortable beds, stocked amenities, firewood, games, and all the little details. We truly want families to arrive and have everything they need to make memories together without having to worry about the small stuff.
Thank you again for choosing Cedar Creek Getaways. We loved having your family and would be honored to welcome you back for another gathering in the future. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram at Cedar Creek Getaways, to keep up to date on what's changing each season.

What makes this property unique
There’s no other spot on the lake quite like this—seriously, it’s the unicorn of lake properties. You’ll have space everywhere: indoors, outdoors, and even in-between. The grounds are like a nature-lover’s dream, complete with a raised bed garden, fruit trees, and blackberry bushes. We have parking for over 10 cars, too. Want to stargaze, chat, or play games late into the night while someone else is already in bed dreaming of s’mores? No problem. There’s enough space here to spread out, relax, and not whisper like you're in a library. Come stretch out, breathe in the fresh air, and enjoy the kind of peace where nature puts on a show, and you’ve got front row seats.
