About this property

Lakehouse Retreat With 140' Open Water & Amazing Views - Sleeps 12

Spend your family Christmas at the Lake! The Christmas tree will be decorated with care, just bring presents and leave the holiday stress at home!

Escape to our charming Cedar Creek Lakehouse, where breathtaking views and direct water access await!

Relax and unwind on the sprawling 1000+ square foot wrap-around porch or in the large, shaded yard, ideal for a game of cornhole, a peaceful afternoon of fishing from the wall, or simply soaking in the serene lake atmosphere with your favorite book.

Over 140' of waterfront access is included with a dock and cleats to tie up your PWC or boats to. Also, a mooring buoy is provided just 20' off the concrete cap for anchoring up in the water or for attaching your favorite floats or Lily pad mats to.

As evening approaches, settle onto the back deck to witness spectacular Texas sunsets. Fire up the propane grill for a delicious meal, then gather around the fire pit under the stars, making s'mores and cherished memories with loved ones.

The new outdoor entertainment space includes Adirondacks, a Solo Stove firepit and a smart TV, so you can enjoy the outdoors without missing out on your favorite games or movie nights.

Parking is never an issue, with ample space for over 12 vehicles, plus your boat or jet ski trailer in the large circle drive.

Inside, the great room offers a 65" LED Smart TV with a DVD player, along with a variety of cards, games, and puzzles for all ages. Each of the three bedrooms also features a 55" smart TV, a definite bonus when traveling with kids!

We provide a wide array of life jackets and a large, comfortable hammock for ultimate relaxation. For our younger guests, a Pack n' Play and high chair are available upon request.

Just a quick 30-minute drive to the famous First Monday Trade Days in Canton, our lakehouse is the perfect tranquil escape after a fantastic day of shopping!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at this beautiful lake house! It truly felt like home away from home. There was literally everything we needed to cook and host a full Thanksgiving. The outdoor toys were a lot of fun, the view was beautiful and we had tons of outdoor space to run and play. The beds were so comfortable and the curtains throughout the house allowed for dark sleeping. The neighborhood was quiet and very accessible to town. We loved the fire pit and watching some football outside on the adirondack chairs. We would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful, relaxing getaway!

Great three couple getaway close to Dallas. Three queen bed/bath suites and a well appointed kitchen. Our second stay was as good as we remembered! It feels like we’re far away from the big city, but only a short drive. Relaxing on the deck, listening to music overlooking the lake or playing board games was wonderful! Can’t wait for our fall retreat!

Wonderful property!

We loved our stay at this beautiful waterfront home. Everything was even better than pictured or described. The home is beautifully decorated and well supplied. We loved having our coffee on the wrap around porch in the morning as we watched the sun rise! We stayed over Thanksgiving and it was a welcome respite away from the city. Highly recommend this home!

The home was even better in person than we expected. Communication was excellent with the owner. The view of the lake with outside seating was perfect. We are a picky group about cleanliness, but had no issues. Everything was really clean. It’s the perfect place for several couples. If you are going to Canton, it’s an easy drive there. Will definitely recommend to others!

Awesome getaway!

This spacious, comfortable and well appointed home was the best yet for our annual getaway with friends. The wrap around deck doubles the living and eating areas. The lot is well shaded and we had a great time playing board games on the deck and corn hole in the yard. We ended our second night around the fire pit making s'mores and enjoying the beautiful weather and conversation. Can’t wait to return with friends and family. Thank you for your hospitality!
