This was such a dope vibe. Definitely eat at the bbq/burger spot. Walk the lake and enjoy the sheer beauty and vibe of the location. We made it a girls trip and we’ll definitely be back soon!

It's a shame the stars only go as high as 5... My husband and I decided to try some different wineries this weekend as we were in the STL area and we landed at Cedar Lake Cellars. Without question, this is one of THE nicest wineries we've been to in the Midwest. The floor-to-ceiling wall of wine greets you as you enter the tasting room, and unlike some places, it's elegant without an attitude. We were greeted at the counter first by Gabe, and he was wonderfully knowledgeable about all the wine products and led us through the tastings with expertise and humor. About midway through we were introduced to Kaitlyn, who was in training, but still was very helpful with the tastings and her smile and sunny attitude. Because of the heat that day, we opted to stay in that room and order our lunch. The soup and salads were fantastic, and the greens were fresh! Both Gabe and Kaitlyn continued to assist us with ordering and serving of the food. As we were exiting that building, Kaitlyn arrived with a larger tote bag for the wine we purchased as well as the tasting glasses--perfectly wrapped to prevent breakage. There were excellent wines for every taste, and Gabe perfectly crafted a sangria that was memorable. As we strolled the grounds, we continued to be amazed at the 'spacious wonder' of the entire property. Three different places are there onsite for dining, as well as several areas to drink/dine indoors and out. The pond has swans (which were beautiful to watch) and the band playing was excellent. The layout and attention to detail of this place is really something every winery should strive for, but the best part was having two genuinely NICE people lead us through the process of tasting and dining. That is so rare these days, and Cedar Lake Cellars will always be on the list of destination wineries for us.

We had fun but felt a bit lost at first.. we had NO IDEA where to go for what.. but we eventually found some delicious frozen wine. We would.come by again. We shared some cornbread.. it was very very sweet like honey. **edit** no kids! It WOULD be a fun place but kids are not allowed.. but honestly that's nice for parents like us who were trying to get away!

I’ve been here twice now for the “Boots, Blue Jeans, and Boogie” event and it is wonderful! So many people come and know how to line dance. I split a bottle of red wine with my friend and it was also wonderful. The lady helped us decided what type of wine we wanted and let us sample a few to make sure we got the right one. Minus one star because we ordered the quesadilla (which was good) and a pizza. The pizza was still cold in the middle and looked like it was a microwaved frozen pizza. They were charging about $9 for this pizza too. Just not good. But I understand with free admission, they got to make their money somehow. Go for the drinks and the dancing! Just not for the food in the winter. Maybe once the outdoor smokehouse opens in the summer it will be better. Overall though such a fun place!
