About this property

Lakefront 4 bedroom retreat w/ boatdock/party deck, kayaks and outdoor bar.

A traditional Texas lake house with a touch of the Virgin Islands awaits you just one short hour southeast of downtown Dallas. The Cruzan Confusion is appropriately named after a traditional drink of the Virgin islands meant to temporarily "confuse" your mind from your everyday worries. Come pull up a barstool at the outdoor bar area that we have dubbed "Soggy Dollar North". Relax in a hammock, sit by the outdoor firepit, or grab a seat at one of our many seating areas on our expansive outside deck which is shaded by a canopy of beautiful trees. If you feel like being a little more active, take a paddle on one of the 2 provided kayaks, have a swim off the boat dock, or toss in a line. At the boat dock you will find mooring whips to keep your boat secured for your stay, a slide for the kids and a waverunner lift to easily launch the kayaks or store your own waverunners. The boat dock has a boat lift as well which may be available for use for an extra fee. Make sure to take in the amazing 360 degree views from the large party deck above the boat dock, especially at sunset. If you wish to enjoy the game while remaining outside, pull it up on the 50" 4K smart tv behind the Soggy Dollar North bar. Oh yeah, the property does come with a 4 bedroom house as well if you want to take a break from the outdoors. The kitchen and main living areas have been recently renovated and decorated with a light nautical/coastal theme which is carried throughout all 4 bedrooms. The house sleeps 11 with a queen in bedroom 1, another queen in bedroom 2, a queen and twin in bedroom 3 and a full over full bunk in bedroom 4. When it is time to eat, throw some food on the propane grill at the outside bar, or prep it in the kitchen on the new granite countertops. Enjoy plenty of seating at meal time including a farmhouse dining table that expands to seat 10-12 people. Views are in no short supply from inside the house as the entire wall facing the lake consists sliding glass doors. So get away from troubles and hustle and bustle of everyday life and come get "confused" at Cruzan Confusion! ***please note that WiFi has been unreliable. There is only one provider in the area and they have been impossible to deal with. We have antenna television, dvd with tons of movies, and the tv apps can run off of phone hotspots if the internet is not working properly. If reliable internet is a must I recommend a different rental.
