We always enjoy our stay at Cedar Lake! The camp host has done a wonderful job on keeping the sites and amenities clean and was super friendly and knowledgeable - and we loved his dog Dan! Will definitely be back again!

Love Cedar Lake. Always a great place to camp. Campsites are not on top each other and most are shaded. Nice pens. My favorite campground.

We were tent-camping and were the only campers in the north campground at the time. It was peaceful & beautiful & well-maintained.

Patk is beautiful, our site was clean and had good view of lake. The trails we slightly over grown. A lot of cat tail like plants along shore line made it difficult to fish. Swimming hole was small and overcrowded

Very peaceful campground and lake. But also very disappointed they tore the playgrounds out.
