Newly listed and remodeled lakefront home on beautiful Cedar Creek Reservoir

MAKE IT UNFORGETTABLE

2,600 square feet of living space. 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, plus 2 living areas. Comfortably sleeps 6 adults plus a bunkbed and pullout sofa. We are located just a short 60 mile drive from Dallas and from Tyler. Eighty miles from Waco.

The breathtaking waterside lake views make this home a perfect place to leave everything behind and take in the lake life. With two porches, a large backyard, and a fishing dock, there are more than enough places for you to relax and enjoy the tranquility of living on a lake.

This spacious 2-story home boasts two full living areas and the kitchen is a home cook's dream. The home is large enough for two families but is intimate enough for just a single family or couple. One of the most amazing and unique features of this home is the huge pecan tree growing through the eaves on the second story. Hence, THE TREEHOUSE ON THE LAKE.

The home is located in a protected cove on the lake and the water is accessible for swimming, floating, kayaking, and fishing in almost all water levels. We have 2 kayaks and several fishing poles for your personal use as well.

If you are interested in spending time out of doors, there are two back porches on this house....one on the second floor and one on the first. On the first floor porch we have two dining areas where you can enjoy a meal or your morning coffee.

It's more than likely you will catch glimpses of blue herons, egrets, and other wading birds in addition to cardinals, blue jays, and hummingbirds. If you are lucky, you may even spy one of the resident bald eagles known to soar in the area.

The backyard is huge and equipped with a fire pit for those after dinner s'mores or to warm yourself on a cool evening. Plus, the stargazing is unreal.

The owners are Stacie and Craig, and this is the only property we manage so we are able to offer family friendly service while responding promptly to any inquiries you may have. We live in the DFW area and understand the need to get away and take a break in a safe, serene setting with family and friends. We consider this home a dream house and would love to share it with you.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on a limited basis.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Be careful older renters
Property is very nice , very comfortable. Needs temp hotter on water. There is a step down at front door you cannot see in the dark and another one inside at front door you won’t be ready for if not made aware of in advance. Other than that we loved the home , very spacious, beds were good. We would stay again.

We booked the Tool Lake/Tree House VRBO because we were to be attending a wedding in Mabank.
The home is beautiful. We even saw one of the Bald Eagles and loads of ducks and some squirrels. It was extremely peaceful. We truly enjoyed our stay. We would highly recommend it to future travelers.

Girls weekend
Peaceful, pretty sunrise and sunsets. Bed was hard. No exhaust fan in the kitchen or upstairs bathroom. I think the remodeling process is still ongoing from what I can tell. The fire pit wasn’t usable. It was full of dirt and grass. The front entrance, back patio, upstairs patio and sidewalks was covered in pine ones, pine needles, acorns and pecans. That could’ve been more clean in my opinion. We still enjoyed our weekend and had fun. Was just expecting more from the home from the description on VRBO.

Lake front view was very nice, upstairs can be a completely seperate place if you need some individual space in a large group setting. House seems to be being remodeled cosmetically, would love to see it finished with all the bells and whistles when we stay again next year. No issues, quaint and quiet

We had a weekend away to meet out daughter’s new boyfriend. We had a great time and really enjoyed the property. We were able to sit outside and have a fire which was needed as it was the weekend where it was cold there. The rooms were very nice and the kitchen had everything we needed!

Excellent Hosts and House
Our home is under construction nearby and this house has been our favorite. Close proximity to the marina, convenience store and to the lake. Great layout with several seating sections for group breakfasts and dinners. Located in a cul-de-sac and very quiet. You can expect to enjoy your coffee in the morning or an evening cocktail with peace and quiet. We enjoyed watching the family of ducks next door. No loud music or neighbors. You can't go wrong with this place. The 2nd floor is like having another home upstairs with it's own bath, coffee, outdoor balcony and seating. Great place to rent!!

Girls Trip/Weekend Getaway
We absolutely LOVED this property! It was perfect for us. We had 8 women, and there was plenty of places to sleep, more than enough towels, and tons of hot water (if you know, you know). We could all fit around the dinning table downstairs easily for meals and games. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to cooked like our southern roots require. The lake was PERFECTION! We were just there, late June, so the water level was perfect, temperature was perfect, and we floated for hours....PERFECT! Exactly what we all needed. We intended to use the kayaks but ran out of time. This was exactly what we were looking for and have already started talking about when we want to come back again, and stay longer!!! (Side note, your color palate and decor were so relaxing. And ALL the patio seating was amazing. Great job!!) If I had to be super picky I'd say to add a love seat down stairs, or maybe 2 giant floor pillows(to save space), so everyone can sit comfy. 2 of us had to always sit in dinning room table chairs. But again, it honestly didn't take away from our trip, would have just been more comfy for all the time we spent together in the living room downstairs. Also, it wouldn't let us log in to our netflix but that just gave us an excuse to talk more! Lol We will for sure be back and have been telling everone about this gem we found right on the lake!

Roomy with beautiful porches!
We had a great time. There are so many places to sit and unwind. We have a large family and had no problem not being under each others feet. Great large table for playing games. Plenty of shady and sunny spots. We caught fish with our grand children right off the dock. Watched the sunrise with coffee. So relaxing! We would definitely come back!

Overall I would give a 7.5 out of 10. It was perfect for us and the lake is beautiful. The layout of the home is great for a family or two families. Landscape needed trimming, and a couple of minor things but we had a great time. I would recommend the house.
