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 truly enjoy hosting a memorable experience for your group. We want you to come and relax, unwind and unplug from the city or other worries. We have done our best to provide everything you need to just show up and feel right at home.

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.

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.

Perfect Getaway Spot for All
This really is a great spot for family and friends. Enough space for all to enjoy and careful considerations from the owners including games, rotating pantry plus lots of fridge space! The kids loved the pool table and the adults loved the large firepit. A little something for everyone in your group.

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.

Beautiful and peaceful property!
We really enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of space, as we had a group of 18 and the house was fully stocked with everything we need. Clean, peaceful and right on the lack. Great host communication as well, they were very accommodating and responded quickly to any questions.

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.

Relaxing on the lake
Fort er Cove is an amazing lake getaway!! Melissa and Tony are 5 star hosts! The house is roomy comfortable and well equipped. The cove is quiet and a great place just to relax, floating in the water. My family did enjoy the jet ski, rented a pontoon boat, kayaked and paddle boarded .Fun was had by all. We would definitely rent again.

Great rental property!
The house is large, very clean inside, well-stocked with linens/towels/everything kitchen, and has AMAZING VIEWS of the lake. There were 12 of us and we had ample room to spread out. Groceries, liquor store, and other necessary amenities are nearby. The owners were easy to reach and very accommodating. Highly recommend!

Great memories, views, and hosts
Property was undergoing some updates but we asked and the host opened it up for our large family attending a wedding near buy, scheduled work ahead of our trip and communicated the status of what would be done before we arrived. This property is beautiful, great views, and has everything you want for a large family retreat. The hosts were wonderful and made the whole process clear and easy!

GREAT ACCOMMODATIONS!
This house was just as described…Plenty of space, excess of everything we needed, activities galore! We fished, kayaked, played catch, pool, shuffleboard and board games. And… a huge table for family meals! Couldn’t have been a better choice for Mom’s 90th birthday celebration! Thanks to the Fortner’s for the regular and clear communication about our stay! We had a blast!

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.
