This is now our third year at this property for Christmas and it honestly gets better and better each year! The owners continues to invest in new amenities, pool, outdoor kitchen, furniture, etc. I am afraid to keep pouring on praise for fear we can’t get in next year due to demand!!
It was a great property for our needs. The house was big enough to accommodate us. The pool was a plus for the kids.
The dumpster was a bit small for our needs because it was partially full when we got there. Excellent property and great host.
We were pleasantly surprised about how large this property and accommodations are. The open area inside main house was large enough for our entire group. Has a detached bunk house, large outdoor kitchen, eating areas, pool etc. Needed more than 2 days to really use all the amenities that were offered. Great views! Love this place!
We fell in love with this property from the moment we opened the doors. It was perfect for our family. We were supposed to go fishing, but mother nature reared her head and it rained. The lodge was amazing with so much space and areas to relax. There was room for all of us to play games together or break off for pool, shuffle board or ping pong. The covered areas outside were a real blessing with the rain we had. We will definitely be returning, and hopefully for longer than a weekend!
We had 27 in our group and had a wonderful stay. The common area is huge and a wonderful area to be in for everyone. Three large tables and lots of barstools. Also, lots of sitting areas for visiting and the view is wonderful. There needs to be a bathroom for the common area and a larger refrigerator. Overall, we had a wonderful time.
This is the perfect location to host a large gathering and group stay. It's got the club house style set up for the common areas with large multi-bed and multi-shower/toilet bathrooms in three of the bedrooms. This made it easier to double up as guest bathrooms for our celebration with day guests. Very spacious! It accommodated all ages for our group. Other than bringing extra towels and possibly your paper goods, it's all set.
A group of 12 of my golf friends headed down to the area for a girl golf weekend and stayed here. The large gathering space was great for us and we had a great time. Some minor maintenance things were noticed-light bulbs out etc but nothing to take away from our great time. Host was great-easy to work with and very responsive!!
Pros: Amazing location, great amenities, super spacious with warm and friendly host…….
Cons: Property needs some serious TLC. Everything in prior reviews holds true so I have to admit, nothing was a shock but having those prior concerns fixed, would have definitely made our experience even better.
The king bed frame in the right bedroom in the 2nd building was broken when we arrived, we were able to fix it enough to use. My son was able to temporarily fix the back door to the main house so it would close properly and not let in flies. There were lots of dead bees in the shuttle board box
when we arrived, hopefully they were vacuumed up before the next visitors arrived. There were other areas that needed vacuuming, (under beds, under couch cushions, etc.
We were so glad to have the pool. The nicely mowed path to the lake was great! We all loved the large room in the main house.
We enjoyed our visit and would consider returning.

This is not a house but a compound. The main building has a good kitchen open to a HUGE common room, shown in the photos but more impressive by far, and a few bedrooms. The two best bedrooms are in an out-building with their own cozy living room/parlor. The common areas were expansive enough for our six family groups to gather when they wanted without all being on top of one another. No photos can do justice to the views from the back porch.
There are comfortable beds for a small army, but more than 5-6 couples/small families will find sharing the bathrooms limiting.
We can recommend Bar-B-Que Chef's Smokehouse nearby, and the guides for striped bass at Guaranteed Fishing Service have remarkable fishing and people skills - they even clean your catch for you!
My family just completed our second year at Cedar Creek Ranch and I cannot say enough great things about the property and it's owner. Multiple improvements were made from last year, and we thought last year was fantastic. Too cold to swim in then new pool, but it is beautiful, new outdoor furniture in multiple areas, a new 2 door commercial fridge in the kitchen was awesome and allowed us more than enough space for our 40+ dinner guests. New beds in one of the rooms for a "Kids Bunkhouse" was a hit with the younger group. I have booked a lot of VRBO rentals, the owner of this property is a standout and the most communicative I have ever encountered. Pictures are great, but they dont do the total property justice. See you next Christmas for what is now a family tradition.

Nice place, but lacking upkeep
The house was great for our needs, but was a little unkept.
It was big with great amenities for fun like ping pong, pool, and shuffle board. Also super spacious with tons of room, couches, and tables indoors. However, the grass wasn't cut in the back so trying to do anything outside was challenging with the very tall grass. The floors were also not well cleaned as there were multiple dead bees and bugs on the floor near the windows, as well as multiple live flys around the house.
Overall, I'd be happy to return if the place was a little more upkept.
Check in was very easy. The house has 3 huge living spaces that we took full advantage of because we had 25 people in our group. Used the pool table and ping pong table a lot. Great back porch and yard but unfortunately it rained and was cold so didn't get to take advantage of that except the fire pit one night. But did get to see the beautiful sunset. The oven blew out on Sat morning. We contacted the owner and within 30 minutes they were at the house and within an hour they had delivered and installed a new oven. So thankful for that since we were having our family Thanksgiving meal that day. The owners saved the day! Lots of space in each room. Lots of restrooms and showers. The only recommendation would be to bring some of your pots/pans. The ones in the house had seen better days. We would definitely stay here again!
Overall it is a nice place with lots of room to sit inside and has a great outside area for kids to play with access to Lake Whitney. With so many positives there are also some negatives. This is the second year we have stayed there and the facility is beginning to show signs of deterioration. Most of the mattresses on the beds through out the lodging are in serious need of replacement. The bed frame in the first bedroom (back bed) near the front door is in poor condition. The front bedroom has way too much furniture in it. It is also poorly designed - it would be nice to be able to access the back bedroom without having to go through the front bedroom - add a wall in front bedroom so that the back bedroom can be accessed from the outside door. The chairs around the tables are very wobbly and need to be repaired or replaced. Bathrooms were missing either shampoo or shower gel. There was not enough laundry detergent. Some of the bedrooms had fans / lights that did not function. There were no hand towels for the kitchen. A brown recliner in the main lodge needs to be repaired or replaced.
