Cedar Creek is a small mountain community where you would go (if you were 1:32 scale) to take a weekend vacation. We have an Inn with a restaurant, or there are several cabins for rent. The main attractions are equestrian activities with guided hours tours available, fishing in the trout stream but the bears get first choice by the river, hiking, and camping.
