Island Park Cottage- Cozy 2-bedroom home on the Lake

Island Park Cottage is a large and private property with a cozy open concept 2-bedroom home located on the lake in Gun Barrel City. Perfect for a family getaway or a small group of friends, you will have direct access from the backyard to the lake (SEE NOTE BELOW REGARDING THE LAKE LEVEL) for less than most other waterfront homes on the lake. Only an hour away Dallas, Cedar Creek Lake combined with Island Park Cottage is the perfect destination for those looking to escape the city life for a few days.
Located in a quiet neighborhood in Gun Barrel City, you can take a walk or ride a bike through the neighborhood. You have access to the Walmart and Brookshires Grocery store within a few minutes' drive. Visit the multiple local restaurants or choose to eat at home on the water.

THE LAKE LEVEL CAN VARY AT ANY GIVEN TIME DURING THE YEAR. We recommend you inquire about the lake level if this is an important part of your visit to the lake BEFORE YOU BOOK. The current level is: VERY LOW, and we have very little water in the channel we sit in currently.
