Property was clean, had everything we needed, great outdoor space. Check in and out processes were super easy and homeowner was super helpful and communicative. We would definitely stay here again. Also, AC works amazing!!
My husband, I, and our dog had a great stay. The property was the perfect lake getaway. Having step in entry to the water was perfect, especially for the dog. The fenced in yard was also amazing. We rented a boat as well and they delivered it right to our dock. Made the trip very convenient. Deanna was amazing and was there immediately if we needed anything!

From the owner: "You all were great guests! Thank you so much for the generous review. I am so happy you enjoyed the property."
What a little gem of a place. The host had absolutely everything you needed and the place could not have been more perfect. I would absolutely recommend this place and we will be back again for another little lake getaway.
This was our second time staying here. Property is on open water with a great lot and a 2 story newer boat dock. Our kids loved it a second time. We will be going back for sure. We have stayed a couple of places at Cedar Creek, one was a nicer house but the location wasn’t great. This properties location and lot are what you are staying for!
Loved having morning coffee on the back covered porch, with a beautiful view of the water. Beds were very comfortable. Appreciated having spices to cook with, and everything you’d need in the kitchen for cooking. Check in/out was easy, and they allowed us to check in early, and extend our stay a couple hours past checkout, since it wasn’t rented right before or after us. Great communication! Would definitely recommend.
This Lakehouse was absolutely perfect for myself, my children and our 2 fur babies. The view was amazing and the home was thoroughly stocked with everything you could imagine for a fun lake time adventure. Highly recommended!
Myself and my two boys have stayed at this property more than once now. It is always clean, has a great dock with views, swimming, kayaking and fishing. Everything needed for a great week of fun. The owner is very responsive and helpful.
We loved the home and property, including the really nice dock and all the fishing & kayaking amenities. The entire property is fenced in, so it’s a great place for dogs. Everything was very clean and the kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals. Only negative would be the neighborhoods leading up to the lakefront properties. Overall a great stay.

Wonderfully needed time away
Great time was had by all - 3 adults, two children and their dog! House was spotless and very comfortable. I LOVED watching them all play in the lake and the huge backyard. It did my heart good. Host was awesome and accommodating to our special circumstances. The only downside was we couldn't stay longer because of work and life stuff.
Tidy and clean. Well equipped. Great fishing for grandkids! Played in the lake. Enjoyed the kayaks. Grilled outside. Would recommend to family/friends. Deanna answered all questions quickly.
Our favorite part was how much the kids loved swimming here! The area for swimming had soft sand throughout the whole area, so there was no worries of cuts on rocks, and there also wasn't a steep sloping so the area didn't get deep too fast and they could go out pretty far while still being able to touch the floor. I'm not sure if it was the week we went on, but there was also good waves, almost like the beach!! And the stairwell to come down to the swim area from the yard was very easily accessible and clean.
There was also chalk which everybody loved. We all made really fun drawings and played some games and it was nice to play outside.
The seating area was also very good. On the patio we had nice chairs and a table in the shade, and on the yard, there were more sofa-like chairs around the fire pit where everybody could sit together in a circle. The smaller table with chairs and an umbrella was also very convenient for outdoor eating with some shade.
The fire pit was also a very good size, not too big, and great for roasting.
The doc was also beautiful, and the view from the second story of the doc was incredible, and we got lucky to see the city having a firework show as well!!!!!
The indoors of the house was very clean, spacious, and a good place to come back to after being outside all day. I loved the showers as well, and the soap dispensers in the shower were extremely helpful too.
Overall, I loved this house so much, will definitly be coming back in the future!
The property was perfect for our short stay. We attended the TYRRA Finals the weekend we stayed here. The home was a relaxing retreat after spending the day away watching a day of youth rodeo action. We didn't get the chance to enjoy the outdoor lounge area but it looked very inviting and would be an awesome place to sit out and enjoy the morning sunrise. Definitely a great place to stay and enjoy the lake view!
