Family Cabin on the Lake - 30 Minutes from Omaha, Nebraska

The Cedar Creek Cabin is a family friendly, waterfront property located on Lake 2 at the Village of Cedar Creek, Nebraska. It was remodeled in 2020 and updated with new furnishings in May 2023. The home sits on approximately 1.5 acres of serene beachfront property that embraces all the water recreation of a private no wake lake. The Mid-Century split entry home has 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 car garage, an open floor plan on both upper and lower level. Main level includes the master bed & bath, 2nd bedroom, 3rd bedroom/laundry room, main bath, and no walls hold back this kitchen, dining, and great room. The finished lower level includes the 4th bedroom, bath, and a family room walk out. Plenty of windows to embrace the lake views, not to mention taking in all the wildlife. If outdoor living is your family’s desire, then this is your place.

The property was designed for large families or groups by comfortably sleeping 10 adults if some don’t mind sharing a room. Then up to 16 if you have a family or group with a combination of adults and kids. We feel it is ideal for multiple families wanting to spend their vacation together chilling. Or if Grandma and Grandpa want to host a family getaway with their big and little kiddos. Why not leave the kids behind for a great couples retreat or girls weekend to just sit, relax, and catch up.

We do allow small family or group events on a case by case basis. Out of respect for our neighbors the gathering would need to be “family friendly” and “PG rated” in nature. Any event would need approval through written confirmation between the “financially in charge” guest and us. Details can be discussed through the message CONTACT US on this site prior to booking. Failure to have confirmation on this site INBOX may result in guests being asked to leave property without refund.

Seating for dining with your family or group on the property:
*two outdoor 8 foot wood picnic tables
*one outdoor metal dining with 6 chairs
*kitchen table with 12 chairs
*kitchen counter with 4 chairs
*basement game table with 5 chairs

Management has installed a video doorbell located at the street side front door of the property. This device also has two way audio and motion capabilities that we hope will provide our guests a sense of security as well as help us manage check ins/outs and scheduled maintenance or delivery. We do ask that this device be free from tampering or obstructions during your stay to prevent security checks to the property.

If there is a day your family or group is looking for lunch, dinner, or a drink then head to the Cedar Creek Inn, also known to the locals as CCI. They are a welcoming community, just tell them your name and you’ll end up with a new friend.
