Cedar Lake is the best equestrian camp around. Everything is maintained beautifully. The sites are amazing. I highly recommend this to anyone who has horses and wants to camp.

This is “ Heaven in Oklahoma “. One of the must visit areas for the the evergreen lover. Is well kept and campsites are all via paved access. NO SEWER, but good dump stations and adequate showers. Small fishing lake with a nice sandy beach area. NO LARGE BOATS. Great walking trail.

The horse trails are beautiful but very rocky. Shoes are needed for sure. Had a great time.

The campground was very clean. The trail around the lake is well maintained. Scenery was beautiful and my stay was very relaxing. The camp hosts were friendly and very helpful. Loved my stay and plan to return.

Campgrounds are very well maintained. The Fire ring at our campsite was clean when we arrived and the bathrooms were well-maintained. The only complaint was that numerous dogs were off-lease at campsites and on walking trails.

Had a great time. Spot 27. Our group had 26 and 28. Spot 26 fit a small travel trailer. All 3 were fairly level. Fishing dock behind these. Super calm small lake. Great hiking trail around the lake. Restrooms clean. Showers had good pressure and warm water. Camp host was excellent. Be careful when coming in to read signs. Make a left at stop sign to go to Sandy south shore. If you miss this turn you’ll have to turn around. Try doing it at the dump station before you got too far north. Watch low lying limbs! We had a great time and will be back.
