Amazing Stay

I would highly recommend staying. My family and i had the best time in this beautiful spacious home. The picture doesnt do it justice. The hosts were very accessible and quick to respond. Not to mention, it is fully stocked with anything you could imagine. The fishing, views, & quiet environment was worth everuthing. We hope to visit again.

Wow book this rental right now!

My family had a fenomenal stay. The property is brand new, incredibly clean and has everything you could ever need and things you didn’t know you needed! We were traveling with my parents and our small children and we could not be happier with our stay. They had everything you could need for little ones. Every type of kitchen gadget, plenty of towels, sheets and blankets. They had paddle boards, a water lily and a kayak for the water. Communication with the host and checking was seamless. All other rental properties should be held to this standard! My husband wanted to extend our stay because it was so enjoyable.

INCREDIBLE!!!

Our group had a fabulous time staying at Cedar Creek in this unbelievably well appointed home. We stayed in Malakof for Canton First Monday Sales weekend and couldn't have picked a better spot. The yard was gorgeous and the house had everything we could have possibly needed. Definitely would stay here again!

Amazing stay!

We had an amazing lake weekend in this well-appointed home! It was our annual Cousin's weekend on Cedar Creek Lake. This was our first time in this rental, and I must say - everything was up to par! We have rented the past two summers in a different rental that has been sold and is no longer available. We had high expectations, and we were not disappointed.The contactless entry was smooth. The entry code had not yet been updated to enter when a member of our party arrived, but Loretta, the host contact, was IMMEDIATELY on the spot to correct it when I texted her. The home looked exactly like the pictures and everything was spotless. Since we had 3 different groups of family staying on the lake nearby, being convenient to them was a top priority. I will say that if you're going to be boating on the lake, it's ideal to get the "lay of the land & water" during daylight hours. When approaching the home from the lake by boat, the dock is tucked into a little cove. It can be challenging to find it in the dark the first time. I advise taking a little cruise before it gets dark to check your surroundings and find your landmarks. :)We hosted dinner at "our" house one of the nights for the cousins and extended family. We found the kitchen to be VERY well stocked with every pot, pan, utensil and a few basic spices that we could ever need for a large meal. Between the indoor and outdoor seating, we were comfortably able to accommodate everyone.Some of the family and kids enjoyed fishing off the dock and caught a few, which was a big highlight! There's an old-school arcade game upstairs that had Pac-Man and Galaga - which provided endless competition and fun times. There are some books, toys and children's games/puzzles upstairs in the game room closet. Each bedroom was equipped with a comfortable mattress, linens, and (I THINK) A SMART TV. Also, a HUGE plus and favorite of our family was the fact that each had its own high quality, white noise machine (you can change it to whatever sound you prefer). This is great if some of your group stays up late and wants to hang out, while others need to turn in earlier (young children, etc.).We encountered zero issues during our stay. Any questions we had were answered by Loretta on the spot. She was kind, helpful and seemed to truly want to make our stay a pleasurable one. She was kind enough to give us a little leeway with checkout time - after checking their schedule. BOOK IT!! :)
