Perfect getaway from Dallas. 16 of us shared the house for the weekend and still had plenty of room. Kitchen was perfect and well stocked and we cooked every meal. Played volleyball and ping pong all weekend and hung out on the water. Would definitely recommend. ##### Daniel G. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph W. Jun 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had a great reunion with our TCU friends at the “Pointe.” It is a fantastic place to host family, friends etc. with probably one of the best views on the lake. The house had everything you could want or need. Super comfortable beds, great bathroom facilities, amazing kitchen. So well stocked for large groups. The open living room was a great place to cool off in the heat of the day. We spent most of the day floating in the lake. The lily pad was worth the extra fee. At night the screened in cantina was a place for all of us to sit, laugh, play darts etc. and catch up.The check-in and instructions were easy and thorough. The Fortner’s were fantastic hosts and helped us relive old memories and make new ones. I can’t imagine a better venue on Cedar Creek Lake with so much space with a beautiful house and grounds. ##### Joseph W. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin Raj K. Mar 17, 2019 #### Exceptional home for a group vacation.. This is a wonderful house and property located along the Cedar Creek Reservoir Lake. The house is great for large family and friends gatherings.The house fit all of us very comfortably and there was still room to fit more. The home was very clean and had everything we needed during our stay. Everything about the property was great. NO problems at all. The owners went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed when we needed it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ##### Robin Raj K. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chad S. Sep 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This place is a homerun. The property itself, the spot on the lake, the views, the volleyball court etc. were perfect. The place is set up to entertain. The kitchen is very well stocked. 2 huge sinks, 2 dishwashers made cleaning up after feeding a large group very easy. We have been taking this trip with this group for 23 years now and this place is on a very short list of everyone's favorites. Boat and jet ski rentals were very easy as was everything with this owner. They are very responsive and definitely seemed to care about your stay. We would for sure rent again. Thanks for sharing your little slice of heaven with us for the weekend. ##### Chad S. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jeremy M. Mar 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Neighbor is very annoying and doesn’t want people coming and going Overall the house is amazing, the neighbor next door is a control freak I received a email saying I guess we broke something and owners used the protection plan for damages which I agree if we did break something then it needs to be paid for but I know we didn’t but who cares . I checked everything before we left and didn’t see anything and was in contact with the owner and told her if we did please send picks and price so I could pay for it because I know it does cost a lot to have a beautiful property like this. If it’s just a couple trying to get away then I highly recommend but if you are doing a cook out with friends and family that are not staying I wouldn’t do to the experience we had. ##### Jeremy M.

Apr 21, 2024 #### Exactly what we wanted Melissa's property served our needs completely. It was exactly as advertised. When you walk in, you know you are entering a home that is used and loved and crafted for happy family times by the lake, and they are sharing their home with you. The home was clean, furnished perfectly for relaxation, the kitchen was organized, and the guestbook and instructions very clear.. Air conditioning was able to be set independently on each of the three floors, bathrooms were well stocked, pantry was well stocked, and there was laundry detergent available for us to use.. we had a large group-20,, with 10 adults and 20 kids. we felt comfortable, which shows just how large the house is. The ample deck space, grass play area, game room, dock space, paddle boards, and swim area all combine to make this quite an ideal set up for our family. We were in Texas for the eclipse and Melissa even left us a treat of eclipse-themed treats on our arrival. We were traveling with a group of nearly 40 folks, and Melissa was able to accommodate the remainder of our family in her other home on the lake, which was also superb. We highly recommend a stay at a Fortner property on cedar creek, a sleepy retreat from the bustle of Dallas or wherever you’re frying to escape:) ##### Philip P.

Melissa was very communicative and everything was just as described. Plenty of room for everyone and everything we needed for cooking for a large group was supplied. We had a great relaxing weekend team building, playing games, & eating good food. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Chelsea P. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Todd B.

Melissa was very easy to deal with and was quick to answer any of our questions. Just make sure to check in advance if the lake is low your boat may not reach the dock due to shallow water. This lake is beautiful and this house is a great place to enjoy it! ##### Todd B. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cindy M.

Everyone enjoyed the house as it was very clean, spacious and has a great A/C….so necessary during this heatwave! There are lots of areas for activities as well. The hostess, Melissa, was extremely helpful with information about the house & property. She provided excellent recommendations for catering lunch and dinner during our stay….plus has a wealth of knowledge about all the community has to offer. Melissa is so easy to communicate with and she was quick to return all messages. It was a GREAT stay! Highly recommended!! ##### Cindy M. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Charles B. Jul 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, comfortable for the 12 people we had. The house was clean and beautiful. The small town was great. There are stores right up the road, and we could easily get to if we needed. My only complaint is, there needs to be better cooking equipment. For the size of that property and the amount of people that it can hold, the pots and pans were too small and not enough. ##### Charles B.

Jun 21, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Our Visit to Fortner Point Reservation process was excellent. Property owner communicated with me nicely. House is 3 stories, but there are no bedrooms on the first floor which was a challenge for the senior members of our family. Second floor had 3 bedrooms, and the 3rd floor had a huge room with several beds of all sizes. This meant 4 of our married couples had to sleep on 3rd floor with all the kids. It is a beautiful setting, but the water was so low fishing was impossible. The kids and adults had a wonderful time playing in the water. ##### Judy M.

Jun 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Great house, terrible experience with host The house was beautiful. However, we arrived and noticed there were a few chairs already broken. There were also lots of cobwebs in bathrooms/outside on the deck. It felt like nobody had cleaned the property in awhile. The experience with the host was extremely stressful and nearly made us cancel our reservation. If you are looking to rent this property with anything other than a church group, silent retreat group, or elderly home field trip, i would highly suggest against booking this property. We left the property after vacuuming and wiping down all counter areas. We cleaned the grill after using it, despite her claim that we didn’t. Before the stay, she warned us that she left a car there and would be coming by to grab it. Her husband came by at the end of the weekend and we chatted, he was great. and told us “thanks for treating the property so well!” As for the extra people, we only had 18 people stay at the property so we were wrongly charged for that. (or less- we had people leave before the weekend was over) Overall, house was great but i would NOT book again with this host. Before the weekend the host noticed my age (27) on my liscense and i feel as though she went into the weekend already knowing she was going to scrutinize our stay, regardless of our care of the property. ##### Annie G.
