Reviews of Cedar Lake Equestrian (NRA)
Reviewed by Guest on April 17, 2009
(1 out of 1 members found this review useful.)We have camped at Cedar Lake for several years and it is one of our favorite places. The campground is spotlessly maintained and the facilities are top notch. Only complaint I have is that when reservations are made online and have to be cancelled for some reason, there is no refund. We have had a few friends plan to meet us there who have had to cancel and were very upset that they received no refund, not even partial. So be sure you are going if you make reservations. But this is the ONLY negative thing I can say about Cedar Lake. The riding is wonderful, very scenic views of the mountains and valleys. Just a great place!!
