The property was originally owned by a family name Nichols (thus the name of the lake). It was handed down to the sons who each owned half the property. The driveway down the middle of property that leads to the lake was originally a fence line that divided the two pieces of property. The brothers did not get along and their are several stories of their warring on how to maintain the property. My parents bought this piece of property in 1964 and created a camp called "Lakeside Farm Camp", a small all boys camp. The camp has gone through several changes since then but has always been owned by the Edwards family. In 1984 the name was changed to "Cedar Lodge" a coed camp that specializes in English horseback riding and offering high level general camp activities.  Enjoy the peace and quiet of our totally private fresh water lake. Take your boat out for a day of fishing or just chill next to the fire.  Sites are approximately 50 feet from each other. If you want privacy we suggest you book both.

Great spot!
Great place to relax and unwind with awesome hosts. Caught a few bass, saw a ton of horses, and enjoyed the spacious campground.

A Lake of your own....
Easy place to camp and my Girl Scout troop had a blast. I wish the potable water source was closer to our space but I would stay again and bring a wagon. We loved canoeing around the lake, playing on the playground, the horses being moved, the friendly dog visits, and the foggy mornings. The sunsets were spectacular!

I love horses and farm stay, so I would recommend it, I know that it is a little bit expensive for a tent, but it is worth it! Stunning nature, many many beautiful horses, yes, I am glad that I choose this place!

We enjoyed our time camping at Cedar. The bathrooms are a close walk and are well kept. Although we did not mind, the noise in the early morning will wake you. Nonetheless the view of the lake is beautiful! We look forward to booking again.

Site 5 - Little cabins in the woods!
We had such a nice time at this site. The cabins were clean and it was very nice to be able to watch the horses in the morning.
