We purchased our Cedar Creek in 2018 and lived in it full time for a year and a half in 2019-2020 in western South Dakota, a portion of that time being the third coldest winter in South Dakota's recorded history! While other full-time RVers were dealing with frozen pipes, our unit handled the below zero temps successfully, thanks to the tank heaters, custom skirting, and other typical winterizing measures taken.
We have two house dogs, one an 85 lb. black lab, and we didn't have any space issues having them in the RV.
I worked remotely, so we replaced the tri-fold couch in the 2nd bedroom with a sit-stand desk for my computer workstation. I also used the 2nd bedroom/office as my vanity, clothes closet and dresser, and coffee nook.
We also wintered in it for 6 months in Arizona, November through April, and the two A/C units kept up with the 80+ degree days. We were very comfortable. The electric fireplace in the living room helped warm the RV when nights were cool.
The only reason we are selling is because we downsized to a Class C so we can make shorter trips and I am able to help drive. Although we like our new Class C, it does not carry the quality of workmanship, cabinetry, and furniture as our Forest River, so we will miss that.

We decided to pick up the rig in Ohio. We drove from CA and were out in a flash from the dealer. It was truly a shake down trip. Pleasantly, we had very few issues! stuck door, a few minor design issues that made me scratch my head. But overall, this is a great product! The workmanship is, in my opinion, better than average. compared to a pull trailer, this thing pulls like a dream! On long stretches, I sometimes forgot it was back there. We did have one recall where they forgot to put the slide skis on 2 of the 3 slide-outs. That will be handled soon. So, over all, I am very pleased with the decision to go with Cedar Creek. I am not a full timer and we have had it out 4 times since September. I do believe though that this is a great destination trailer.

What an amazing layout.
You could seriously full time in this RV.
Tons of space. The back room can be used for an office or an extra bedroom. There's even an extra bathroom back.
The kitchen is made for a mini chef. Huge fridge and stove makes my wife feel at home.
Master bedroom has a king size bed. HUGE closet with enough space for a washer and dryer.
Loft is useful for friends that wanted to stay the night. You could use it as storage too. Makes the RV feel bigger and roomier.
Cons: The back room would get a little cold at night so we just bought an electric heater.
Overall..It's one of the best layouts we've' ever been in.

Bigger thanks to the opposing slides, the floor space is actually big enough to dance in. The master bed room is real nice sized and the king bed is great. The stackable washer an drier gets rid of the drudge of going to the laundry mat. As for cons . I don't have any.

Bought this RV used at 9 years old. Excellent condition. Only issue at this point was soft rotted wood in the BR slide out, typical leak for this rig. Water invaded through the bottom side trim. I knew this was issue when I bought the RV. A little effort to replace the floor, found the bottom "pan" was cracked once I got to it but FR had the part for $16 shipping. We've enjoyed this RV so far, typical issue of needing 2nd AC unit for hot southern days! Added that unit this summer, was already prewired! ALWAYS have a good charged battery, the slide operation is BR, DR, kitchen and requires a lot of power.

Owning and using the 2014 Forest River Cedar Creek Silverback has been one of the best decisions we've ever made about RVing. We've made trips from PA to CA and back with ease. The AC did quit on us, but it was under warranty and the manufacturer replaced it quickly. We liked the openness of the floor plan, allowing TV watching and enjoying the coziness of the fireplace from the comfy LazyBoy recliners, the dining chairs, and the couch with a pull-out queen-sized bed (which was also comfortable in itself). The bathroom is small, but we wouldn't trade it for the extra space in the bedroom. You can actually stand up and walk around the queen bed. A walk-in closet covering almost one whole wall has a light inside it and hook-ups for washer and dryer. We did not use the w/d feature ourselves so cannot speak to its use. There is also a smaller tv mounted above the dresser in the bedroom. There are many cupboards and a pantry-pullout with shelving for dishes, food, etc in the main living area. A bonus - a central vacuum system! There is also lots of storage room under the camper itself. We added solar panels to the roof and 4 new batteries for the times we would dry-camp. It has a 65-gallon water tank which came in handy during dry-camping. It also tows easily. All in all, we would recommend this 5th wheel without hesitation.
