Terrific way to relax
What a beautiful little cottage. My husband recently had a liver transplant and we just wanted a weekend away. The cottage has a terrific view of the lake that we never tired of. It was so quiet and peaceful.

Spectacular weekend getaway!
This beautiful cottage was clean, elegant and would compete with any five star hotel. The bed was comfortable, the shower was large and the owners reviews of restaurants in the area did not disappoint. Their dock was loaded with catfish underneath and the fishing light under the dock was the cherry on top! I would highly recommend this cottage for anyone looking for a romantic weekend getaway or a fun summer vacay. We will be returning in the future.

A little slice of happy in Texas
So glad we chose Stan's property to take in the 2024 eclipse! We weren't expecting anything special so it was nice to be pleasantly surprised! Everything was clean and as pictured but with little extras everywhere! A bottle of wine, snacks, and a few waters were awesome after a long travel day.
The record player with a few classic albums set the weekend mood and well stocked extras like towels, linens, and blankets reinforced the feeling of being well taken care of. There was a clean grill and a Keutig with coffee provided. The view was relaxing and the sunsets lovely. The neighbors on both side were friendly but unobtrusive. The bed was comfortable and the shower had good water pressure with never-ending hot water!
Lastly, Our spur the moment decision to go to the safari in Eustace turned out to be a great decision! We laughed all along the way and saw animals we will not soon see again!
As for the eclipse, it wasn't looking good. An early foggy start then thick clouds rolled in but like everything else on this short trip it turned out perfect! The skies cleared 20 minutes before the main event and what a show it was!

Nice cottage by the lake
Very nice host and surprise to have a romantic set up: table set up with a bottle of French wine in front of the colorful fireplace. Love the view and quiet winter season by the lake. A lot of nature space outside. Great lighting setup right for the gas grill on the deck. Great communication and nice information for everything nearby in town.

Absolute Bliss!
Wow! This place far exceeded our expectations. The little cabin is very well-built and super cozy. You are right on the water with a kayak to borrow. The lake was so nice. We had a blast. The area is extremely quiet and peaceful. One thing to note is that the WiFi was a bit shotty, so keep that in mind if you are planning to work remote.

Beautiful Cottage
Sweet place to stay for two on Cedar Creek Lake. Friends had everything they needed for their two nights. Nicely appointed, comfortable place, great shower. Only comment from friends - who are older - was that there was no outside light and the steps down to the cottage are hard to see at night.

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect spot. Quick wildflower getaway, we'd definitely stay again. The cabin is pristine and exceptionally comfortable. Easy access to anything you'd want but still peaceful and quiet. Our host and neighbors gave us complete privacy while still letting us know they were available if we needed or wanted anything. Absolute perfection!
