Nestled along 300 feet of private lake frontage, this exceptional three-story retreat on Cedar Creek Lake offers an unparalleled waterfront experience. Showcasing breathtaking lake views from every room, the home features wraparound porches on the first two floors, providing a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living. A carved-out swimming area, safely tucked away from boat traffic, invites guests to enjoy the refreshing waters, while the large yard offers ample space for relaxation.

The home’s Cantina provides an enclosed entertainment space, complete with ping pong, darts, cornhole, and a dual mini-basketball setup, ensuring fun for all ages.

The private boat dock is yours for enjoyment during your stay. There is one boat slip that holds up to a 22 foot boat fully covered and one jet ski slip with lifts if you bring or rent watercraft.

We have just installed stairs with a handrail from the dock to the water to make getting in and out of the lake easy for people of all ages without having to climb a narrow slippery ladder.
