Where to buy cedar boards?

As mentioned in another thread, I'm trying to build an outside table for a new grill. I'm wanting to make it out of cedar so it will withstand the elements. I stopped at Lowes and Home Depot, but their selection is crap. Lowes has the sizes I need, but it's only finished on one side and rough cut on the other. The boards have horrible knots in them and chunks missing out of the middle.

 

What I am wanting is some fully finished cedar boards of various sizes. Closed knots are fine, but I do not want gaping holes in them nor do I want edges knocked off. Any idea for some lumbar yards that might carry this? There appear to be a million lumbar yards in central Ohio and I'm not sure where to start.

The biggest issue is finding cedar finished on both sides without knots. You'll have to find someone that can special order it because I doubt any lumber yards will carry it in stock. I think most places will tell you to use composite boards
