This was the most peaceful, clean, quiet and beautiful campground I've been to in Oklahoma. I can't wait to go back and stay longer. The camp hosts were a visible presence and they maintained the grounds and facilities wonderfully. Everything was clean; restrooms, trails, campsites. I so much appreciated the quietness of the campground, that made it possible to enjoy the beauty of the surroundings.

We enjoyed our stay in northshore campground. We did reserve a site w/out electricity and our solar panel and battery didn’t work which made it a troublesome time. But the kayaking made it all better. What a beautiful area.

The area is nice and quiet. Camp sites are well taken care of. Fire pits cleaned out and the over all campground is clean. The facility’s, showers and bathrooms need attention. Drains plugged and lights out. Need the spider webs cleaned off as well. Hosts where friendly. Issues don’t appear to be related to the hosts but to the maintenance staff or lack of. But that is why I have an RV, I take my own facility with me.

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.
