This home has it all from kitchen supplies to a dumb waiter. We loved the vintage touches all throughout. The kids truly stormed the castle upon entry! Even though the home was mostly vintage, everything was spotless… including the bedroom carpets! The water pressure was unbeatable! This was the first rental property that had absolutely every single thing we needed for cooking! Also, the kitchen is updated and quite nice. The water is very nice as it’s in a little inlet with kayaks and a canoe for enjoyment. There’s lots of shade in the yard through the day making it very nice to sit out and relax while the kids played in the water. We definitely would recommend this property to anyone looking to have a memorable trip with their family.

About the host

Hosted by Manjusha Shankaradas

Host profile image
We are from Dallas, Texas and have spent much of our lives creating spaces where people feel welcome—whether in business or at home. We enjoy hiking, hosting family gatherings, and bringing people together around good food and conversation. Being a host allows us to share that spirit with others, helping guests create lasting memories in a space that’s both beautiful and meaningful.

Why they chose this property

We chose Cedar Creek Lake because it offers the best of both worlds—peaceful waterfront living with plenty of nearby activities. The area is perfect for reconnecting with nature, enjoying the water, and slowing down with the people who matter most. It’s a place that feels like a true getaway, without being too far from home.

What makes this property unique

This isn’t your typical lake house—it’s a castle. With its turret-inspired architecture, handcrafted wood finishes, and spacious layout, the home feels grand yet cozy. Whether you’re paddling across the lake, grilling with friends, or curling up for movie night, every corner is designed for connection, celebration, and comfort. It’s a rare space that brings people together in style.
