I really enjoy the small town feel of Cedar Lake. People are welcoming, schools are excellent, neighbors like no other! Town takes care of each other through fundraising and supply drives if a family has had a home fire or other tragedy.
There is a summer festival by the little beach by the lake. There is some fun history in the town. The lake is very pretty.
The town is growing. New home subdivisions are beginning to replace farms. This is a concern in maintaining the small town community.

I have lived in Cedar Lake my whole life and it is a very nice place to grow up in. The school corporation is good with nice teachers and is continuing to grow. The people here are also very neighborly. There is a lot of construction around the area bringing in new housing developments to welcome new families into the community. It is a perfect place to have a family where you can enjoy the lake life.
Cedar Lake has the small town Mayberry feeling where eventually you'll realize everyone knows everyone in one way or another. May it be through a mutual friend your the fast pace of "Word of Mouth".
The people here are friendly and when in need are helpful to each other. It's a slow pace, laid back kind of feeling with restaurtants, to much pizza and the lake. A nice place to just enjoy the water and relax, fish or go boating.
Cedar Lake resident live in a "vacation feeling" atmosphere all year long. We love it here......
