Cedar Lake is a beautiful place. The lake is pretty and they have nice trails. We came in on a Tuesday. We had an RV site with water and electric. However, when we got there, we were informed that there was no water. It had been off since the day before. We could have dealt with that, however, the bathhouse was closed also. You had to drive over to the next campground for bathrooms and showers. Water was back on within an hour us our arrival--the camp host called and had it turned back on. They had turned it off the night before because they thought it might freeze and just forgot to turn it back on. The camp host was super nice! We enjoyed the campground. But there is absolutely NO internet or phone service at all if you have ATT. you have to drive 5-10 miles up the road to get any calls. They really need to have WIFI access for the campground. Overall, a pretty place, just plan to be a little bit on the primative side, even if you have a water/electric site lol

Had a great time, no cell service with Verizon which is great with us. Campsite was in good shape, bathrooms were clean. It is a very secluded campsite which we enjoy. Power and water hook ups worked great and the dump station was an easy in easy out operation.

our campsite was the only muddy one, it would have been nice to change it. Bathrooms/shower didn't have heat. Park and scenery were nice for a cool day.

We love Cedar Lake. Very clean bathrooms. Nice big spots for large rigs. The trails are awesome and the campground host is super nice. We are making plans to go back over Easter.
