Herbert Taylor's vision for a camp ministry where college students would meet God led him to purchase and donate land, on Prentiss Bay, to InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Herbert Taylor was met in that vision by the tireless dreams and efforts of Keith and Glady's Hunt, who oversaw the construction and management from 1954 into the 1990s. InterVarsity stewarded Cedar Campus for over 65 years.

In 2020, InterVarsity transferred ownership of Cedar Campus to Forest Springs Ministries. Now under a new name, Cedar Bay honors the vision of Herbert Taylor of providing a place where individuals can come away and meet God more intimately, growing in their knowledge and understanding of their creator. As one of the four sites of Forest Springs Ministries, Cedar Bay’s primary focus is adult and family ministry while continuing the spiritual development of young adults.
