About the host
Hosted by Nikki Salek
Nikki, Lee and their teenage daughter Emilee Salek are the hosts. The owners are Jim and Freda Sojka, third wind entrepreneurs with a longtime dream of buying this camp so close to our home. It has been a church camp since the 70s, we wanted to convert it to something families could enjoy. We also love a family business to run together.
We wanted to share our good fortune, through the sale of a successful business, (Bug Soother)this is an excellent way to be able to do that.

Why they chose this property
As proud Iowans, we know how beautiful and sometimes under-appreciated the landscape of Iowa can be. With rolling hills, lush forest trails, and breathtaking views of the Cedar River, we believe that Cedar River Ranch encompasses all of the qualities we love about SE Iowa. Cedar River Ranch is the perfect spot for a country-chic wedding, a family reunion, a guys trip or a girls weekend to reconnect with old friends, or just somewhere to steal away for a weekend.
What makes this property unique
With 53 acres of timber and trails along the Cedar River, our cabins are perfect for the outdoor explorer. Plus, our brand new swimming pool plus volleyball and basketball courts, horseshoes, and 2 playgrounds, there are activities for all ages. During the summer season, roast marshmallows around the fire pit, and relax.
We have 2 big buildings that hold events, and a large commercial kitchen to cater to the events.
The Ranch is set up to make some memories.
Also on the property will be a transitional living community for women in recovery. By staying at the ranch, you are supporting a fresh start for these women.
