Accommodation
Cedar Lakes Conference Center
5 nights Ripley
Most Road Scholar groups at the Cedar Lakes Conference Center stay in the Holt Lodge, a graceful timber-and-fieldstone structure that echoes traditional building styles. The lodge’s motel-style rooms include two double beds, a sitting area, separate desk, and bathroom with bath and shower. Comfortable chairs around the fireplace lobby provide a cozy spot for evening gatherings. Recreational activities vary with the season, but may include swimming, hiking, horseshoes, and miniature golf. Pathways on the bucolic 450-acre campus invite strolling and taking in views of the surrounding hills. Good to know: Rooms have Wi-Fi, telephone & cable TV. Housekeeping once a week.
