About the host

Hosted by Ryan Russell

Host profile image
We're a local family who loves spending weekends on Cedar Creek Lake, and we've furnished and maintained this home the way we would want a vacation rental for our own family. We take pride in providing an exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-equipped space where guests can slow down, enjoy the water, and make lasting memories. Whether you're fishing from the dock, paddling the kayak, or watching the sunset from the patio, we hope you'll feel right at home.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the wide-open views and peaceful atmosphere that are becoming harder to find on the lake. Unlike many coves, this location offers unforgettable sunsets and easy access to fishing, boating, and kayaking while still feeling quiet and relaxing. It's close enough to restaurants, grocery stores, and local attractions to be convenient, yet far enough away to truly unwind.

What makes this property unique

This thoughtfully updated lake house is designed specifically for families and small groups looking for a premium lake getaway.

Highlights include:

• Open-water views from the living room and patio

• Private fishing dock with complimentary kayak

• Fully updated kitchen stocked for family meals

• Comfortable king suite, queen guest room, and dedicated bunk room with two Queen-over-Twin XL bunks

• Fast Wi-Fi, smart TVs, and inviting indoor and outdoor gathering spaces

• Exceptionally clean accommodations with attentive local owners

Rather than maximizing occupancy, we've focused on creating a relaxing place where guests can disconnect, spend time together, and enjoy everything Cedar Creek Lake has to offer.
