Cedarkirk Cedar Lodge

“Our experience at Cedarkirk was unforgettable. We stayed with friends and brothers and sisters in Christ from Emanuel Lutheran Church, enjoying a peaceful and welcoming environment. One of the best parts was the canoe trip from Alderman’s Park to Cedarkirk, paddling for two hours through beautiful scenery. Evenings were filled with deep conversations and prayer, and on Sunday morning, we had a beautiful outdoor service under a bright blue sky. The zip line, games, and Swamp Trail added excitement to our stay. The hospitality and the connection with nature made everything perfect. It’s the ideal place to disconnect, recharge, and strengthen our faith. We will definitely be back!”

“Everyone associated with Cedarkirk has been awesome. Love this place so quiet and calming!”

“Mark is amazing! The improvement that was made was great. The chef is very rude but over all everything was great.”

“I've been with a large group and with a small group. The camp can accommodate both. Recently we rented the Retreat House for the weekend. It comfortably held all 15 of us. We slept 2-3 to a room in good beds (bring sheets & pillow cases, pillows and blankets provided). The main space was large enough for us to have 2 groups playing cards and one group playing a board game. The screened porch was lovely. We enjoyed walking the nature trails, canoeing, disc golf, and the pool. The food was delicious and the staff did everything they could to make our weekend fabulous. We have already booked for next year.”

“The staff was very accommodating and made sure that our retreat group’s needs were met. The cabin was tidy and provided the basics for a comfortable overnight stay. We all enjoyed the serenity of the grounds and spaces that made it possible to be in community with God.”
