Cedar Creek Ranch Event Retreat

Nestled on 13.937 scenic acres near the shores of Lake Whitney in Whitney, Texas, this exceptional farm-style ranch retreat presents a rare opportunity to own a fully operational, income-producing Airbnb/VRBO investment property, or the ultimate hybrid lifestyle asset for the buyer who wants the best of both worlds. Whether utilized as a full-time short-term rental powerhouse or as a personal retreat that generates income while you're away, this property delivers exceptional flexibility and financial upside that few opportunities in the Central Texas market can match.

The short-term rental market surrounding Lake Whitney has seen increased demand, driven by new local development, increased regional tourism, and a growing appetite for large-capacity group accommodations. Properties capable of hosting large gatherings, reunions, corporate retreats, weddings, and multi-family group vacations are increasingly scarce and increasingly valuable in this market. This retreat is purpose-built for exactly that use, and its rental revenue has reflected it, with strong year-over-year growth and significant upside still on the table for a motivated operator.

The 5,418 SF main venue serves as the heart of the property, featuring expansive living and entertaining areas anchored by a spacious game room complete with multiple lounge spaces, pool table, shuffleboard, darts, and ping pong. The retreat includes 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, with dedicated sleeping quarters totaling 2,268 SF. Currently configured to sleep 25+ guests with accommodations for up to 32, the layout comfortably supports family reunions, corporate retreats, weddings, and group vacations across a total of 10,390 SF of improvements thoughtfully designed for large gatherings and memorable lake getaways.

Outdoor living is equally impressive. A new inground pool, expansive deck areas, and a brand-new outdoor kitchen with built-in smoker create the ultimate entertaining environment. Guests can unwind on covered porches, gather around the fire pit under expansive Texas skies, or roam the massive open field that leads directly toward lake access and a prime swimming area. The property's setting offers privacy, panoramic sunset views, and a true ranch-style atmosphere that keeps guests returning year after year.

Additional improvements include a 1,872 SF shop for storage and operational support. Recent capital upgrades, including new roofs, new air conditioning systems, and updated electrical service, enhance efficiency and reliability, making this a truly turnkey investment opportunity. Business intangible assets will be conveyed, allowing a seamless transition for continued short-term rental operations with proven rental history already in place.

Lake Whitney remains one of Texas' premier recreational destinations, known for its natural beauty and abundance of outdoor activities. Guests enjoy pontoon rentals from the nearby marina, championship golf at White Bluff Golf Resort, and guided striper fishing excursions with experienced local outfitters. Convenient access to several major Texas metros further strengthens its appeal as both a weekend escape and a high-demand vacation rental destination, one that only becomes more desirable as the surrounding area continues to develop and grow.
