[CandysDirt.com] First Look: Emerald Bay at Cedar Creek Lake Hosts Launch Celebration

Posted on Linda Thach

Lake enthusiasts and homebuyers now have a new destination to explore — Emerald Bay at Cedar Creek Lake, which will host its first on-site launch celebration on Friday, October 10. The gated, 44-acre community by 821 Investments, led by North Texas developer David Craig, features 71 exclusive homesites, with nine already sold.

Just over an hour from Dallas, Emerald Bay blends modern infrastructure and lakeside living. The development features concrete streets, underground utilities, public water and sewer systems, and even a golf cart path connecting residents to nearby marinas.

Designed for everyday enjoyment, the community will feature a pool, pickleball and basketball courts, fire pit, playground, and landscaped trails. Short-term rentals are prohibited, keeping the focus on permanent and second-home owners.

A Fall 2025 LakeHomes.com report saw Cedar Creek move up to the sixth-largest lake market in Texas, with more than 1,200 active listings and $13.1 billion in total statewide lake property value. – Candy’s Dirt

As Cedar Creek Lake continues to surge in popularity, Emerald Bay’s debut offers buyers a timely opportunity to secure new, buildable lakefront property in one of the state’s most in-demand markets.

[CandysDirt.com] You Can Still Get a $6K Lot at Cedar Creek Lake — or a $19M Retreat With Room for 30

Posted on Linda Thach

Texas lakefront property is booming! Cedar Creek Lake, just an hour southeast of Dallas, is one of the state’s hottest markets, with prices ranging from $6,000 for undeveloped lots to nearly $19 million for sprawling compounds. The total value of Texas lake property has skyrocketed to $12.38 billion, a significant increase from last year. With over 1,100 active listings, Cedar Creek Lake is now the seventh-largest lake market in Texas.

While listing activity is up, the pace and psychology of lake-home buying have shifted since the pandemic, says Glenn Phillips, CEO of Lake Homes Realty.

Lake-home purchases can now take up to two years, compared to the 90-day turnaround typical of primary residences. “Buyers aren’t thinking of this as a real estate investment. Buying a lake home is a lifestyle choice.” – Candy’s Dirt

That’s part of why my friend Glenn Phillips, CEO of Lake Homes Realty in Birmingham, Alabama, notes that purchasing a lake home often takes around two years—much longer than the average homebuying timeline.

But once the keys are in hand, vacation home owners embrace every moment of that laid-back lake lifestyle.
