We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront home in Malakoff! The property is perfectly situated on the lake, offering stunning views and a gorgeous sunrise we enjoyed from the dock. The host was accommodating, allowing our uncle to bring his boat, which made our stay even more convenient and enjoyable. The home itself is spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, creating a welcoming atmosphere.However, there were a couple of minor issues. We noticed a wasp nest in the backyard with active wasps, which made us cautious while outside. Additionally, the kitchen stove and BBQ grill grates could have been cleaned more thoroughly. Despite these small drawbacks, the overall experience was great, we would definitely stay there again and we’d recommend this property for its location, comfort, and charm!

Exceeded Expectations!

The property was great! The home was very clean. I loved cooking out on the electric pellet grill. The bed in the master bedroom was surprisingly comfortable. Would definitely recommend this property to any family looking to stay at Cedar Creek Lake. Enjoyed being able to fish just footsteps from your back door. Kids loved the jacuzzi! The host was fantastic!

Mother daughter weekend

It needs a good cleaning/wipe down from normal usage. There were also too many spider webs that appeared to have been there a while along with dead bugs for my liking. Wish there was an option of privacy shades in the living room. The linens were clean.

Perfect Getaway

We loved it! The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. The hot tub was a bonus for my 3 year old who, wasn't old enough to enjoy the slide down into the lake with his big brother. My older son caught several fish right under the dock. We could have happily spent a few more days here, if only we had the time! The owner was pleasant and easy to communicate with before and after booking.

Weekend getaway

The house was perfect for what we needed. Inside is clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the hot tub. The only thing that would have made it even better is if there weren’t so many spider webs throughout the outside patio and deck area. This home is great for a summer get away at the lake!
