The Depot
Cherry Creek's depot was the center of commerce and local gossip. No less than four daily trains, north and south, stopped at this small depot in a 1909 sampling of the timetable. Freight traffic was made up of mainly less than carload freight, farm implements, and agricultural prodcuts.

Today, the Cherry Creek station is occupied by a unique small town gift shop. It features antiques, handmade Amish goods and country crafts. (Railfans note: timetables and railroad depot books are also for sale!) The present owners are very mindful of this building's heritage.

Snowmobiling
Cherry Creek has many snowmobile trails that are connected county-wide to ride in the winter.

The Dredge
Fishing, canoeing, and kayaking are great summer sports at the Dredge.
