    "I live here. In a state that runs to browns and greys Cedaredge is green. Only thirteen miles from the forests on Grand Mesa and situated in an area dotted with orchards and pastures it is a peaceful town with a rural feel close to outdoor recreation but not far from larger cities. A river (Surface Creek), does run through it. Get as involved as you want to, there are a lot of options. Great climate, bad weather seems to above or below Cedaredge."
  • Tammy
    "This is an extremely friendly neighborhood. We were welcomed with open arms and invited to many events. There's a lot to become involved with here which is surprising for such a small town. If you don't have enough to do, it's your own fault! The golf course is fantastic too. There isn't much in the way of shopping. Have to go 15 minutes to Delta or 30 minutes to Montrose for that but it's worth it to keep the small town feel. We've been here almost two months and absolutely love it."
