Our acclaimed Labor Day Weekend festivities embrace everything you love about summer with a unique Big Cedar twist.

And what better way to cap off the celebration than with a dazzling fireworks display lighting up the night sky on September 1st? This is your chance to give summer the grand farewell it deserves! Labor Day at Big Cedar Lodge is replete with activities for everyone. Kick off the weekend with the Pedal Boat Fishing Tournament on August 31st, offering two one-hour sessions for an admission of just $10 per person. Bring the family, as pedal boats seat four, and enjoy a catch-and-release fishing adventure—no experience necessary, with fishing poles and tackle provided. Children 10 and under are welcome with an adult companion. A valid fishing license is required for adults participating, which can be conveniently purchased at the marina. Spaces are limited, so be sure to make your reservations promptly! Don't miss out on the rest of the weekend's thrilling activities. The Bowling Tournament is perfect for those who prefer lanes over lakes, and our 5K run is an excellent way to explore Big Cedar's natural beauty while getting your heart pumping. The Labor Day Picnic on September 1st from 5:30PM to 9PM is an event you won't want to miss, with delectable food, invigorating live music, and a special flyover to awe attendees of all ages. It's an open invitation to both overnight guests and the public—making it the perfect opportunity for locals, potential homeowners, and business owners in the community to come together and celebrate.
