Suitability

Who it's for

Who this shuttle is built for — and who should plan differently.

1
Overnight guests at Cedar RunA direct match: pickup is offered in front of the Cedar Run Inn but only if you are staying at the campgrounds or the Inn.
2
Independent day visitors driving inNot ideal: there is no public parking at Cedar Run, so drop‑in arrivals without overnight lodging cannot rely on this pickup option.
3
Riders with non‑standard bikesExercise caution: the shuttle cannot transport bikes with front fenders, tires wider than 2.8 inches, or bikes over 50 lb—consider the Canyon Valet alternative if your rig doesn’t meet those limits.
4
Small groups booking in advanceA practical choice for groups who reserve ahead: the shuttle requires a reservation, carries a per‑person rate with a minimum charge, and enforces a deposit and cancellation policy.
