Cedar Lodge

About Cedar Lodge

Cedar Lodge is one of Wellesley College's small residential houses, housing approximately 15–25 students in an intimate community setting on the wooded campus. Like all Wellesley buildings, Cedar Lodge has no central air conditioning — the college's New England climate and tree canopy make this manageable throughout the academic year. The house has a shared kitchen that becomes a social center for residents, and semi-private bathrooms shared among small groups. Cedar Lodge residents develop some of the closest bonds on campus, drawn together by the small scale of the community and the shared responsibility of house life. The proximity to Wellesley's famous forest paths, lake, and botanical garden makes Cedar Lodge feel immersed in the natural campus that Wellesley is known for.
