6BR/5Bath Single Story Lake Front Home at Cedar Creek w/ boat & wave runner option

6Bedroom/5 Bath home on a cove with open water view. 3800 sqft single story home with 2 living areas, game room and 3 bedrooms that have private baths. Large yard & trees to hammock, fire pit and 96 feet of waterfront. The cove is great for fishing/swimming without the boat traffic of open water. Backyard patio has lake views, gas firepit and TV. Game Room has pool table & shuffle board. TV outside on patio for game watching. This is a great home for multi-generational family gatherings.


We love getting to know our guest and if there is any special occasion you are celebrating. We are just a text or call away before or during your stay. Check in is contactless and you will have a private code generated through Remote Lock.

This is a quiet private neighborhood with beautiful views in every direction. Many of the single family home owners are here full time making for a friendly feel around the cove. You will get a friendly wave from neighbors as they come and go on their golf carts or out for a walk. You never know-you may even see a celebrity!

We are just a few minutes into town for groceries or supplies instead of having to drive all the way around the lake to pick up something you may have forgotten.

Cedar Creek Lake is the 5th largest lake in Texas. Excellent fishing, boating, 4th of July Air Show, and lots of shops including First Monday Canton Trade Days just 20 minutes away.

The marina and Vernon's are popular waterfront restaurants accessible by boat. Our location is just a few minutes to Walmart, Brookshire's and local restaurants.

There are no mobile homes in our neighborhood. This might sound like a weird thing to say, but many areas of the lake are surrounded by mobile homes-we are not one of them.

We are committed to protecting our properties which is why we've partnered with Know Your Guest, the leading vacation rental guest-screening provider. Please note that before your booking begins, you will need to verify your details and ID.

Contactless entry is available through Remote Lock. You will receive your door codes the week before check in.

Game room includes pool table, shuffle board and a 65" smart TV to watch your favorite movie or game. Outdoor games include corn hole and horse shoes. Bring a hammock to tie up and relax between the large trees right next to the water.

Tritoon boat rental available to guest who meet insurance requirements. 18 foot lily pad and three kayaks also available for small rental fee during your stay.

We are just a few minutes boat ride to the marina and the Tiki Hut or to Vernon's Restaurant or the new Lou Lou's ice cream/snow cone shop on the water.

Two story boathouse offers boatslip, PWC slip and covered dock sitting areas on both levels. Mooring whips installed to hold an extra boat or tie up when you have a guest visit by water!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are within a 10 minute drive to the closest Brookeshire's grocery store and a super Walmart for any shopping on the way into town or during your stay. If you would like groceries delivered ahead of time, please let me know and I will give you instructions.

Location is a bonus for this home because you have the benefit of being in a quiet neighborhood on the lake with easy access to fast food restaurants such as Chicken Express, Whataburger, Starbucks, Subway and sit down dining like Chili’s. Vernon’s, Jalapeño Tree or many other local favorites.

Parking: 6 cars if double stacked in the driveway and up to 3 more depending on the second driveway. Please do not park on the street or block neighbors driveways.

This home is perfect for retreats, Indian Princess campouts, family reunions, girl scouts, boy scouts, scrapbook retreats, girls weekends, team bonding outings or just a getaway/staycation just an hour from downtown Dallas. First Monday Trade Days in Canton is only 25 minutes away.

You may also follow us on FB at "Fortner Pointe at Cedar Creek" to see what is going on out at the lake.

Amazing Property
This property gets nothing but 5 Star reviews for a reason. The property was exactly what is promised, the communication with Melissa leading up to the stay was top notch, and the home itself was so comfortable and had plenty of room for our huge family to spread out. One of the things that I loved the most was the cove that the property is on which is perfect for swimming. We brought our boat and it was super easy to get it on and off. We all wish we had a few more days there!

Canton Weekend
Our group of 12 adults had a great weekend. The house was spacious enough for all of us and had lots of gathering spaces - living room, eat-in kitchen, game room, back porch, fire pit, and dock. The house was very clean and well maintained. We would definitely rent this property again.

So peaceful!
The house was perfect for our adult church group of 14! Everyone had a place at the big table. We enjoyed games, the fire pit, beautiful sunset! A really bad storm came through Saturday night and the host sent me a message about the warning she received on her phone and told us the safest place in the house. And she was on her 25th anniversary trip in Hawaii! Everyone of our group said I hit it out of the park with the house!

Extended Family retreat and Birthday
Perfect place to host an event with Family flying in from other parts of the USA. October is a great month in Texas to experience outdoor family fun with many activities to do around the house. The house provides ample sitting areas for folks to have conversations and enjoy family time. We had 12 people with different t ages and able to find plenty of places for folks to sleep. Lake level was down so didn’t bring boat or kayaks. The views are fantastic and the host is very accommodating.

Great weekend get away
We loved spending time with family and friends here. The property is beautiful with lots of space for people of different ages to engage in fun activities. The view of the lake is beautiful. The only issue we had was spiders inside and spider webs outside the property. The property can use some pest control for sure.

Fantastic family weekend
This was the perfect place for our family of 14 to have a fabulous, fun-filled weekend! The house is so spacious that everyone felt comfortable and was well furnished! We loved the large table where our family shared many meals together. The host answered our questions in a timely manner and check-in was easy. Even though the lake was down due to drought our family enjoyed the lake with kayaks and lily pad! This accommodation is truly a five star property! I would highly recommend to everyone!

Lovely Lake House
This house was perfect for my family's summer reunion. I've rented vacation homes over years and have never found one as clean as this one. It had all the amenities we needed, and it's location was perfect, well protected from rough water. The owners were friendly and always responded promptly. I would definitely stay here again.

Best house on Cedar Creek!
This house has stunning views is very clean and has all the amenities you could ask for. We stayed over the Fourth of July weekend and there was plenty of room for multiple adults to spread out and enjoy our time. The game room has a great pool table and shuffleboard! Beds were very comfortable and the A/C worked great (which was important as the temps were over 100 outside). Will definitely rent again.

Best VRBO Experience Ever
I can’t say enough great love things about our stay. Melissa was very communicative from the moment I inquired about their property. She went above and beyond with recommendations and to answer our questions. We stayed for Easter and were delighted that the and the place was decorated for the holiday with candy and an Easter basket of goodies as well for the kids. The house is well equipped and decorated in great taste. The pictures don’t do it justice. We rented their boat and had the best time tubing and checking out the other lake homes. I hope to stay again and highly recommend this beautiful home with the most hospitable hosts we’ve ever encountered.
