LOCATION INFORMATION + DIRECTIONS
Our Story
For over four decades, this community has been home to our family. Over the past decade, we have revelled in camping escapades, days spent on the farm, and eventually acquiring our own land.
Our ties to Cedar Banks run deep. A four-year old Hayden helped plant the mandarin orchard that still (in part) forms a slice of our land today. We are grateful for the moments spent by Cedar Creek that shaped our journey together, and we now witness our two young boys growing and learning to love this special place. It feels simply inevitable to share Cedar Banks with others, whether for disconnecting and rewilding, or rejoicing in life’s milestone moments.
From this profound connection and the desire to create an everlasting sanctuary, Cedar Banks was born. Our aim was simple: a place you can return to time and time again, to relive the memories, and inscribe countless more. This is the legacy we want for Cedar Banks, and we invite you to become part of the story.
