Developers plan new luxury subdivision for Cedar Creek Lake




The Kaufman County Commissioners Court approved a preliminary plat on Jan. 3 for a new luxury subdivision on the northwest edge of Cedar Creek Lake in Precinct 4.

The new subdivision will be called Edgewater, and it will sit on 250 acres. Lots for 145 homes are planned, according to the developer Cedar Creek Preservation LLC.

The subdivision will be accessed by County Road 4042, which is also kown as the Tolosa Road by residents of the area. The Tolosa Feed Store sits at the intersection of County Road 4042 and State Highway 274.

Lakeside lots will sell for $200,000 each, and interior lots will be priced at $60,000.

The subdivision roads will be maintained privately as is the case with many other luxury subdivisions in the Cedar Creek Lake area.

The county made significant repairs to County Road 4042 about a year ago after it became so riddled with potholes that residennts could not drive on it. Tolosa residents confronted the Commissioners Court about the roads, and Precinct 4 Commissioner Jakie Allen subsequently ordered repairs to be made.

The road also leads to the Baker Cemetery.

Cedar Creek Lake

Fishing Report from TPWD (Nov. 20)

GOOD. normal stain; 68 degrees; 3.32 feet below pool. The recent storms slowed down the fishing just a bit. Still finding hybrids and white bass on midlake points and drop offs along sandy flats throughout the dam area, Crappie Island, Key Ranch and the spillway humps in 11-17 feet. Cast spinners and slabs and look for schooling fish on these flats as well as deeper seawalls and shorelines. Fish any hump in 14-22 feet throughout the lake to find fish stacked up in schools as the day warms up. Look for schooling fish on cloudier days. Use spinnerbaits or drop a slab down to the bottom and work it fast up and down and the fish will hit it immediately. Also throwing out a slab and reeling it back with a slow retrieve is also working well. Cast rattle traps, Spoons,Umbrella Rigs, slabs or sassy shads to get the hybrids to bite. The crappie bite has been getting better. Target crappie with small jigs and minnows in 5-12 feet under bridge pylons, hidden brush piles throughout the lake or under docks. Crappie fisherman have been moving spot to spot finding limits. You may catch 4-5 and then have to move on to another spot on some days. Limits are being reported, although guides have been reporting conditions are improving with bigger sized fish being caught. Report by Brent Herbeck, Herbeck’s Lonestar Fishing Guide Service. Catfish are good on shallow flats in the mouths of the major creeks and the adjacent points and shorelines are holding fish in 2 -6 feet, or with fresh shad anchored or drifting on mainlake flats in 12-24 feet. This bite should hold up for another month or so. Report by Jason Barber, Kings Creek Adventures.
