Cedar Wood Resort: A Table Rock Lake Tradition for Relaxing Ozarks Getaways
By Allie Johnson
Cedar Wood Resort is a peaceful getaway in the heart of the Table Rock Lake area, welcoming guests with cozy cabins, friendly hospitality, and a relaxing Ozarks atmosphere.
Owned by Mike and Lori Hartman, Cedar Wood Resort has been part of the community for 66 years, with the Hartmans now celebrating their 14th season of ownership. Located in Kimberling City, the resort offers cozy cabins and a relaxing atmosphere for families, couples, anglers, and anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of the Ozarks.
“Nestled in Kimberling City, the heart of the Table Rock Lake area, Cedar Wood Resort is a peaceful getaway designed for families, couples, anglers, and anyone looking to relax and reconnect with nature,” the Hartmans shared. “Our goal is simple: comfortable stays, friendly hospitality, and a place guests can’t wait to return to.”
What makes Cedar Wood Resort truly special is the personal touch guests experience during their stay. As a locally owned and operated business, Mike and Lori enjoy getting to know visitors and helping them feel right at home from the moment they arrive. Their cabins provide a quiet retreat just minutes from Table Rock Lake, outdoor recreation, and area attractions — offering the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.
The Hartmans also take pride in continuing the tradition of the small, family-run lake resorts that helped make Table Rock Lake a beloved vacation destination over the years.
“Small, family-run resorts like ours helped make Table Rock Lake the vacation destination it is today,” they said. “We’re proud to keep that tradition alive by offering a laid-back place where families, couples, and anglers can slow down, unplug, and create memories they’ll want to relive year after year. Memories are made at Cedar Wood Resort!”
As active members of the community, the Hartmans appreciate the support of the Table Rock Lake Chamber of Commerce and the role it plays in promoting local businesses and tourism throughout the area.
Whether guests are planning a fishing trip, family vacation, romantic weekend, or quick escape, Cedar Wood Resort continues to provide a warm and welcoming home base for making lasting Ozarks memories.
