Neighborhoods
Rock Creek Road is a beautiful road that follows the creek for nearly 50 miles. There are mile marker posts every mile. We use the markers as a reference. For instance, the turn for the cabin is just past the 8-mile marker.
The speed limit is 30 mph. The road is narrow, so a low speed is warranted. It is common to see deer, eagles, osprey, and other critters along the road. Bighorn sheep are often seen between the 6 and 9-mile markers, with greatest frequency between the 8-9 markers.
