The bathrooms are cleaned two plus tines daily. There was issues with overgrowth that has been fixed. The owner is wonderful. He is available for questions, problems or just to sit down and have a cold drink and a friendly chat. I give the owner and the campground more than a five star review because it is more than obvious that he puts his heart and soul into this campground and also wants to make sure that every single guest that comes to spend time there has three same experience that he has built this campground for. Come spend the night , you will want to experience an entire season with us here at Cedar Valley Camp Sites. It's an experience you'll soon not forget!!!!!

One star for the iced tea…read more I ordered the haddock, bad choice. When it came out it was ice cold. I have a lot of haddock, and I've never had this experience before. I bit in, the breading was warm, but the dish itself was cold. So, I could tell it had been frozen. Our server came over a few minutes later. I let her know that my fish was ice cold. She took it back. 20 minutes later (an hour after I originally ordered), my fish came out again. This time the breading was burned and rock hard. I pulled the fish apart; the inside was burnt too. The haddock was brown. I let my server know. By this point, I now had had ice cold fish and then burned fish. I don't know what they're doing in the kitchen over there, but this is not the place to get haddock. On top of this, we heard good things about this place, drove an hour to get here and it definitely wasn't worth it. Save your money.

Menu is exactly like what my Gramma used to make, and what you will find in many traditional diners. We had a party of 8 so we made reservations in advance. We arrived at 6, and were surprised at 6:15 when we asked to take our order from our very friendly and solicitous waitress that "the cook hasn't come down yet- I'll ring her again." The bloody Marys were good- apparently the bartender makes his own mix. Our soup and salads did not come out until 6:45. I don't think I've ever waited 45 minutes for soup before. Unfortunately the young children were really struggling with the wait but fortunately the restaurant was empty so we literally did a push up contest to keep the kids from going bonkers while we waited. The salad came out in a big bowl family style and was very good. Unfortunately some of the dressings came out 10 minutes later when were done our salad. The soups were excellent- the high point of the meal. I understand she makes them all from scratch on site Dinner finally came out at 7:30. That's right, we waited 1 1/2 hours for dinner in an empty restaurant. Sigh. I got the pork loin- it was respectable, served with roasted potatoes ( a little hard) a decent gravy and Romano beans. My son was disappointed with his spaghetti and meatballs- apparently the sauce was watery. My husband was very disappointed with his rib-eye. He ordered it Medium, but it was grey almost all the way through and had no sear on it. Apparently it tasted like vinegar. I understand some cooks finish steak with vinegar, but I think that should be disclosed on the menu. My sister was Blissfully happy with her dinner and called it her favorite place in town. My recommendation? Have a bloody Mary, a big bowl of any of the wonderful soups and a salad. Leave plenty of time for your meal.

Those people with other types of disabilities can gain confidence and experience success as well. Lastly, all will gain a sense of peace riding on a trail ride enjoying the outdoors. I also went to a rodeo there recently and had such a great time ! It was exciting watching the riders on the bulls and the barrel races were amazing. Those riders have some serious riding skills ! Food and beverages were an added pleasure. I'D advise everyone to check out their site and see what's going on at the Stables and see if there's an event or evening or morning trail ride you might enjoy trying!

Pros: The owner is super cool. When we arrived, he was mowing the lawn. He hopped off and showed us to our room. Check in wasn't till 3pm but he allowed us to go up early. The rooms were huge. Very intimate since we could leave our doors opened and unlocked the entire stay. Only the bridal party stayed at the inn so it was nice. The owner and staff were all super helpful, polite, and nice. McKenzie, one of the staff, especially sweet and didn't complain about anything even though she was there all day and night (give this girl a raise). They did skimp out on liquor, not watered down at all. Food was amazing . I believe the owner cooked everything. The venue was very beautiful. The view was perfect. We got very lucky since it literally rained all day. The rain stopped and the sunset was amazing. Cons: I stayed here mid October and the weather here is still very hot and cold, literally. Mostly cold. The ac/heater unit didn't work very well and it either got way too hot or way too cold. Couldn't find a middle ground. Also, it took a while for it to get to warm up. Our fireplace was not functional and all. The owner made a few attempts to fix that problem but never got fixed. There's a hot tub here. We didn't use it. There were dead flies all over the place. On the rug, in the tub, and on the sheets. The rooms didn't seem to be clean. There was hair in the sink, gunk in the shower, hair on the walls on the shower, and dust all over the place. My boyfriend walk around the room barefoot and tracked dirt into the bed. Could def use a nice vacuum and dusting. Happy to say the bed at least had a mattress cover. The rooms were ridiculously expensive given the cleanliness.
