Beautiful Lake House

We had a wonderful time at this lake house. The backyard and deck were great for our group and we thoroughly enjoyed the seating provided on the boat deck and back porch. The layout of the house is very open and easy for a large group to be together. We will definitely be back again. Thank you!

Family get together

We had a great weekend at the beautiful lake house for two families. The house was perfect for our trip including the large dock for fishing, swimming and boating. We caught endless fish right off the dock with the kids loved it. We spent the majority of the time on the lake, on the dock, or playing in the large back yard. The kitchen had everything you would need and could not think of anything I would ask for different. The owners we also very helpful and gracious with anything we may have needed (although we did not need anything).

Beautiful Setting and Comfortable House

This property has a beautiful setting with many mature trees, a spacious lawn and a very nice lake view. The yard is fenced, which is great if you have small children. There is a large patio where the views can be enjoyed, especially sunsets! The house has a large living room with huge windows overlooking the lawn and the lake, furnished comfortably and tastefully. The kitchen is efficient and roomy and fully equipped. The master bedroom & bath are large and well appointed; the other bedrooms are a little small but very tidy. We would definitely stay here again!

The perfect place to stay!!

We loved our week long stay here! I don't think there's anything I would have changed. The house was very roomy and open and never felt crowded. The kitchen had labels on the drawers and cabinets so it made finding things a breeze. The backyard was huge and completely fenced so we never had to worry about kids going where there weren't supposed to. The dock was plenty big enough to tie up our 22' boat. It is located in a quiet cove in a no wake zone so no worries about the children swimming off the dock. Lots of stores/restaurants within 15 minutes to get anything you may need. We would definitely stay here again!!

Perfect Place for our Family Vacay

Our family has stayed at several VRBOs on Cedar creek.We have finally found our favorite...perfect location on a quiet cove. our grandchildren range in age from 17 to 24 and the bunkroom was perfect for them. We found everything we needed in the kitchen...all of it labeled. Plenty of storage for food and extras we brought in the laundryroom. Two refrigerators were very helpful. We enjoyed the deck during the day and at night. We caught lots of fish right off the dock. The paddleboards and kayaks were used alot. We enjoyed meeting the great neighbors and their pups. Great times and memories were had by all. We will definitely be back. Thank you April for your hospitality.

Fun Family Weekend

This is a delightful, nicely decorated, well-equipped home right on a beautiful quiet cove. We spent a long Father's Day weekend there with our kids and grandkids. We had more than enough room inside and loved sitting out on the porch watching the kids play in the beautifully landscaped yard. It was especially nice to have the yard fenced all the way down to the lake so we didn't have to constantly worry about the little ones around the water. We were able to tie our pontoon boat up to the dock and take it out often so the younger ones could have fun tubing and the older kids could wakeboard and kneeboard. The kitchen has literally everything you need, and as an added bonus, the drawers and cabinets are all labeled! We can't wait to go back!

Perfect location for our family get together. Plenty of room for 6 adults and 8 kids. The bunkroom gave the kids a place away from the adults for games and hanging out. The location on the cove was perfect for kayaking and paddle boarding without a lot of boat traffic.
