The view, the paddle boards and canoe is what the kids enjoyed the most! Closet full of life jackets, all sizes and great deck games! The owner made sure we knew she was there if we needed anything! We will be back soon!!

We are so glad you and your family had an amazing stay! We look forward to hosting you again soon.
We stayed at this property for 3 days total. Our total party size was 11 including kids. There was ample room to fit in everybody. First, just wanted to mention the very prompt and courteous interactions with both Mr. Amiri and Angela. Both of them responded to any issues straight away and were always positive in their approach.
In terms of the property, the interior of the house itself was very clean and well maintained. Our only issue was with the outside which was a bit messy (maybe since we went during Thanksgiving break). Since first impressions count for a lot, the outside did provide a slight negative impact, however, on contacting Angela she did send over the maintenance persons early the next morning and so the issue was resolved.
Lastly, some basic items were missing or, not provided which are sort of expected such as, salt, sugar, kitchen tissue etc. The toilet tissue was also lacking in most of the toilets but Angela dropped by the next day to replenish them.
Overall we did have a good experience, however, due to the small issues I give them a 4/5. Nonetheless, I would recommend this property to others.

This was the 2nd time we stayed here, we enjoy the big deck and the access to the water. We can't wait until the boat pier is ready for fishing. Having the paddle boat and kayak available was awesome. Firewood was available for the fire pit. We all enjoyed our stay and will be back with the family again!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to hosting you again.
Our family of 4 spent 3 nights there in mid-March. It was our first time visiting Cedar Creek and the property was exactly what we were looking for to RELAX. The interior has been completely updated. Granite countertops, stainless appliances, Keurig, fresh towels, comfy beds - all the kitchen utensils you could want. We spent most of our time relaxing on the brand new deck, around the firepit, fishing off the property. The kids loved the giant connect 4, and we had numerous cornhole
"tournaments", etc. The owner was very communicative, sharing various favorite restaurants, additional info on the house, amenities, etc. Also, really enjoyed talking to the friendly neighbors on both sides. They kept to themselves, but we were happy to introduce ourselves & engage in conversation. As mentioned in the description & another review - there are a few additional updates being made to another house on the property but that didn't interfere with us at all. We can't wait to see everything once it's done! We will DEFINITELY be back. We've told all our friends about it, too. Thanks!

So glad your family enjoyed your stay and we hope to host you again soon. We have made several upgrades and look forward to sharing kayaks, floats, and more with you in the future.
We rented during a busy time and we were blessed to find this lovely home. My husband and I, our son and daughter in law and our two grandchildren. The water front location allowed for fishing and the firepit area is where we spent most of our time. The Jenga and cornhole games were perfect. The kitchen was also stocked with everything needed to cook with, and the Keurig coffee supplied was an appreciated bonus! Beds were comfortable and perfect for our group. Lifevests for kiddos were so appreciated. We lacked for nothing! I guarantee we will return.
Thank you..Thank you. Thank you!
