We enjoyed our long weekend here. It was so nice to see the kids out in nature 24/7. They had a blast fishing, canoeing, Clay shooting, riding the ATV, horseback riding and more. The property staff were great. A few small hiccups with weather and equipment didn’t deter our fun. We look forward to coming back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill S.

The adults had a blast and so did the kids. We are already booking another trip there and cannot wait to be back. Don't miss this opportunity to get away from the city and experience nature and kindness at it's best. Thank you to everyone at Cedar Cove Ranch! We love you all!! ##### Jill S.

Jun 20, 2017 #### Group Golf Trip Cedar Cove Ranch was the end of our search. Each year I lead a group of 21 guys to play golf in east Texas and the ranch we use to stay at was sold in the last year. I was so lucky to find CCR! The staff was great to work with, flexible, accommodating, and patient with all my questions. When we arrived everything was as described and the accommodations were beautiful. Our group loved this place and can't wait to return each year! ##### JD H.

There were 6 adults and 3 children (7, 3, and 21 months) and all of us had a wonderful time. From the moment we reserved the Chateau to the moment we left, Arlan, Ripple, Nate, and Bryant were available to make sure our trip was a success. The home was beautiful and the views unbeatable. We participated in several activities - hunting for the guys, outdoor movies for all of us, fishing, kayaking and paddle boarding - all were fun and top-notch. We are already planning several return trips. Great memories created for our family - can't wait to go back. ##### Karen T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### jo D., Denham Springs, LA Sep 24, 2018 #### Cedar Cove Ranch - The Perfect Combination of Seclusion, Luxury, and Service Our family spent almost a full week at this lake house retreat in Eustace, TX. We have met for family vacations on many properties - mountain homes, beach homes, various resorts, and other lake houses. Everyone agrees -> This stay was the BEST time for all of us! The Grand Chateau is spacious and lovely and well-appointed. The lake is beautiful with great fishing and plenty of room to play! The property is gorgeous. And...one of the most important factors...The Staff Was Attentive to our every need; yet, allowed us the independence we desired. If we are playing the Five Star Game -- Cedar Cove Ranch is FIVE on all fronts! ##### jo D.

Nov 8, 2016 #### Awesome Weekend Everything about our weekend at Cedar Cove Ranch was perfect – the house, the lake, Arlan and his crew, even the weather. They went out of their way at every turn to make sure we had what we needed. The activities we planned ahead of time went off without a hitch and were a big hit with our house full of 13 year old girls. To find a house and property this beautiful just an hour south of downtown Dallas is rare, but the optional activities are what really put Cedar Cove Ranch over the top. It's like having your own 700 acre resort with a friendly staff to carry out whatever it is you choose to do. We started planning another weekend before we even left! ##### David L. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2016 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bill & April S., DFW Apr 2, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Awesome cabin, with too many eyes Cabin & fishing are great, exterior to cabin is very nice. The on-site staff stay in rooms on property, “to help”. If you are there for a get away with your wife, you don’t really need the ranch hands hanging around watching you. There were many positives but the on site staff is are intrusive and sleep within a stone’s throw of this Grand Chateau. There are multiple lodges on the same property , so don’t expect privacy on 700 acres . Staff is around even if you don’t call for them & also at night. Some lights shine on the Chateau fire pit from the adjacent apartment lodge. It could be a 5 star with more privacy and the staff not being so close in evening and at night. ##### Bill & April S. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Rachel P. Sep 9, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Beautiful Getaway - but a few surprises This stunning home sits on a private lake, this is not Cedar Creek lake- so if you're on VRBO and searching for Cedar Creek properties, this may be confusing. The home is part of a large private ranch and other families will be on property with you if you do not book all the lodging facilities. This led to some confusion and frustration for our group and another group on site. Additionally, unlike many lake homes, unmotorized water sports are NOT included. Again, that led to a bit of confusion. Overall, the home is STUNNING, incredibly well appointed and has all the amenities you can imagine to make the stay wonderful. The property is gorgeous and would be ideal for a family reunion, corporate get away or weekend away. Just be sure you understand that this is not a single home on the lake, and you'll have a contract to sign before arriving. ##### Rachel P. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Isaac H. Jan 1, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great property, just a few problems. The property is great and the cabin was excellent for our party of 10. It’s a great setting and we had a lot of fun with our family there. The property is presented as a resort/ranch with multiple houses on the 700-acre property, and there is 24hr support available. We had a lot of fun, even though we visited out of season. We had a few issues - that I think would have been resolved with more clarity in the listing or at check-in, and better resources given to the property. There’s an indoor fireplace, but your not allowed to use it. We purchased wood from the property, only to find out later it could only be used in the outdoor fire pit because guests aren’t allowed to use the indoor fireplace. There was only one extra roll of paper towels at the property, but it was under the sink where there was also a leak (which soaked them thru). When we called to ask for more paper towels, we were told the entire property was out of paper towels. Given this property was outside of town, it’s not easy to get more items in a pinch. The outdoor grill didn’t work, so we had to go to a nearby house and borrow that grill (by rolling it nearer our house). There is a volleyball court onsite but it sags down so far it’s really unusable. We asked for a volleyball which they obliged and delivered to the volleyball court, but the court wasn’t useable. We had a few more small issues that were somewhat inconvenient that we had to wade thru. I think this property is more focused on the warmer months (and rightfully so), and we paid the discounted winter rates, which resulted in slimmer staff and support for the grounds. Again, it’s a beautiful property and the home was nice. But it didn’t quite live up to everything we hoped for. I would stay there again only if I had some assurance that these issues were resolved and the staff and facilities were better resourced. ##### Isaac H.

We typically book small trips and vacations in Broken Bow a few times of year with a group of 8-16 of us but tried a location closer to home for our weekend trip. The house and property were spectacular. We were impressed with the furnishings and cleanliness. The lakefront view and elevated outdoor firepit was spectacular and an overall very relaxing environment! We wished there was more comfortable seating by the firepit to accommodate all of us however. We were extremely happy not to have any one staying in the Lodge less than 25 yards away so we had the area to ourselves. We chose not to do any excursions and to just enjoy the setting and the outdoors at the house. The ping pong table and corn hole game were an awesome addition. It’s a shame that the interior grand fireplace cannot be used because in the winter months that would be such a spectacular setting to be able to enjoy. It was unfortunate the kayaks and paddle boats at the private dock were not available to use unless you paid an additional rental fee. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will consider coming back for another stay at some point in the future. April ##### April P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Biswajit D.

I can’t say enough great things about this place, truly amazing. The owner Mr. Sheeps is an awesome person, always ready to help. The view is amazing, house is extremely clean and well organized.

Josh was a great help and host. Great trip and look to return. ##### Sean M. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle K. Feb 7, 2019 #### Great house inside and out. The property was everything we were hoping it would be. The outside sitting area was great in the morning for sunrise and wonderful at night for a fire with s’mores! Josh was great and very helpful with anything we needed. The house was great inside and worked great with our large group. This place definitely deserves a revisit in the summer when you can enjoy the water activities. ##### Michelle K. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rene A. Aug 8, 2018 #### Awesome Getaway House The property, lake and the house was beautiful. The house is very spacious and has everything you need. Josh the caretaker was an awesome host. He made our trip enjoyable with helping us with any needs or questions we had during our stay. I recommend this place to anyone who want to get out of the city life for a bit and get off the grid into the country. ##### Rene A. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### david b. Mar 26, 2018 #### Great location, great staff ... Thanks for hosting our party this past weekend. You have a beautiful property that was perfect for our group get together, and Steve took care of everything during our stay. We're looking forward to finding another time soon to visit. thanks again for everything. ##### david b. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott S. Jan 12, 2018 #### Great house for group of friends Stayed at the Grand Chateau house with a group of friends. The house is amazing- beautiful on the inside with a lot of sleeping, fun game room with TV/ping pong/foosball, nice large open kitchen, personal lake and a great fire pit (my favorite part). The property staff were super friendly and very helpful- we were burning through some major firewood and they ventured out into the cold to keep our inventory up. If you are looking to "get away" this is a perfect place to do so. Between the stellar property, beautiful log cabin home, friendly property staff, and management pre/post visit being very nice and helpful- our stay was an all around great experience. Highly recommended! ##### Scott S.
