The campsite was very well taken care of. The restrooms were very clean and even relatively cool even though the temp reached 100 degrees while we were there. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

We stayed in the campground the entire time, but it was very beautiful and peaceful. It was a lovely weekend with family. There is no cell service and I was nervous getting out there because of lack of service. Do plan to go back for a visit in the future and will plan on arriving during daylight hours for easier set up.

It was wrong timing for my brother and I it was so windy and the chance of rain we only stayed one night. The restroom at the Noth shore was locked the handle on the door was missing the Handicap restroom had so many bugs inside you could have made a bug pie. The campfire was still smoldering from the last camper I would assume. I love Cedar Lake it is one of the most beautiful lakes in Oklahoma. My brother and I are planning on making another camping trip in October Good Lord willing. Thanks!

Swimming for all. Fishing from the shore, and fishing docks available. Hiking and biking also. Fire pits out doors, for those hotdogs, or marshmallows. Relaxing when you wish. Or walking your dog also. Fun for everyone 😀

The North Shore campground is the most picturesque. The trees, birds, frogs and water are my favorite welcoming party. The campground was free of litter. The door in the men’s restroom/shower was broken. Hope that is fixed soon. Waking up to hearing door banging & yelling because someone is trapped in the bathroom is not peaceful or healing.
