About this house rental
The Cedar Creek Cabin is a family friendly, waterfront property located on Lake 2 at the Village of Cedar Creek, Nebraska. It was remodeled in 2020 and updated with new furnishings in May 2023. The home sits on approximately 1.5 acres of serene beachfront property that embraces all the water recreation of a private no wake lake. The Mid-Century split entry home has 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2 car garage, an open floor plan on both upper and lower level. Main level includes the master bed & bath, 2nd bedroom, 3rd bedroom/laundry room, main bath, and no walls hold back this kitchen, dining, and great room. The finished lower level includes the 4th bedroom, bath, and a family room walk out. Plenty of windows to embrace the lake views, not to mention taking in all the wildlife. If outdoor living is your family’s desire, then this is your place.
The property was designed for large families or groups by comfortably sleeping 10 adults if some don’t mind sharing a room. Then up to 16 if you have a family or group with a combination of adults and kids. We feel it is ideal for multiple families wanting to spend their vacation together chilling. Or if Grandma and Grandpa want to host a family getaway with their big and little kiddos. Why not leave the kids behind for a great couples retreat or girls weekend to just sit, relax, and catch up.
We do allow small family or group events on a case by case basis. Out of respect for our neighbors the gathering would need to be “family friendly” and “PG rated” in nature. Any event would need approval through written confirmation between the “financially in charge” guest and us. Details can be discussed through the message CONTACT US on this site prior to booking. Failure to have confirmation on this site INBOX may result in guests being asked to leave property without refund.

Wonderful place with room for lots of family. Great deck to have morning coffee, and, then sit around at dusk with the family. Great kitchen with everything you will need. Highly recommended!

The property was just as described and photos gave an accurate representation. We loved the beach and spent most of our days in the water. Loved using the kayaks too. The lake is small, but was perfect for our family. The kitchen was well equipped. We appreciated the large refrigerator, although there is no ice maker. I knew this ahead of time and was able to bring ice. The master bedroom is the only room bedroom with any shelves to put clothes. We utilized the hall closet as a "dresser" for putting clothes. The owner was very responsive throughout the trip. We were there during a storm and the power went out for 20 hours. The owner brought us a large flashlight and power bank and offered to bring ice for our coolers. Overall we were very happy with this vacation rental!!

We really enjoyed the lake. I enjoyed just relaxing and watching my children and grandkids. The grandkids enjoyed playing in the lake and the kayaks we had a storm one of the nights and Maureen texted me early morning made sure we had electricity and the air conditioning work. She was very kind and considerate
Just have to share this we were planning on grilling one night and we didn’t really know how to run a charcoal grill but with the help of you tube we got it going good😂. We had a really good supper that night. Thank you!!
