We love this cute place!! We’ve been here the past 3 years on our way home from Florida with our 40ft Motorhome pulling our jeep. Every single time I have called the person answering the phone is so nice and helpful. When we arrive the check in is super quick and easy…and we get an escort to our sites. This is only an overnight stay for us because we are on a mission to get home, but it’s easy... We love this cute place!!

We drive a 37' Class A and flat tow our car behind. We got caught in a winter storm in late January and could not get back home. We made an impromptu reservation at Cedar Ridge and it was a great experience. Booking was easy on their website and we were able to book at pull-through site so I didn't have to unhook the car. Our site was flat enough that I didn't need to use our leveling jack... We drive a 37' Class A and flat tow our car behind.

Our site was flat enough that I didn't need to use our leveling jacks, which was convenient. The site attendant was friendly and guided us to our camp site in their ATV. It was only a couple miles from I-75 so it was convenient. Also, there is a Food Lion just down the street from Cedar Break that made our grocery run very easy. Great experience for us.

We stayed here one night the weekend after Thanksgiving. I called late afternoon and we rolled in after dark and they were ready for us. Someone came and lead us to our site--very helpful.

I didn't rate rooms because I'm the guy who brought it and mine is a 1999 but it starts runs drive stops and it doesn't leak water. Unless they want to give me a new rv, my room was what it was as for the cedar break park, it was nice clean quiet and price rather reasonably with polite service that escorts you to your parking space.

I didn't rate rooms because I'm the guy who brought it and mine is a 1999 but it starts runs drive stops and it doesn't leak water. Unless they want to give me a new rv, my room was what it was as for the cedar break park, it was nice clean quiet and price rather reasonably with polite service that escorts you to your parking space. In my case they were rather accommodating as I'm a 37 ft RV pulling a 24 ft trailer that has about 5 ft of tongue on it and they had a spot in the back that allowed me to pull through without dropping the trailer accommodating unloading my car from the trailer saving me time and effort. Unfortunately when I went to connect the water and fill the tank I left the water on and overflowed the tank and they were very accommodating and shut it off for me and in my distraction I forgot to shut off the water. They were very polite when they called me and took care of cutting off the water.

I would love to give 5-stars, but for a non-stop barking dog on the property next door. Other than that, new owners have put in lots of work to make this cg better. Its still a work in progress or so we were told, but they are off to a great start! Nice, big dog park. The traffic on Red Bud is busy, but it didn't really bother us. Pull thrus are roomy and easy to enter and exit. Stayed 2 nights. V... I would love to give 5-stars, but for a non-stop barking dog on the property next door.
