Taylor Creek Cabins -- Short History

Originally the cabins and the house were built as accomodation and were owned individually by different owners.

In the 1990's they became long-term rentals for locals.

Since 2004 they were made into short-term rentals for the benefit of visitors to the area.

The Taylor Creek Ranch was owned and operated as a cattle ranch until the early 1990's. It currently still agists cattle during the summer and irrigates fields for that purpose.

During its earlier period as a ranch much damage occurred through uncontrolled grazing along the creek banks. Much remedial action has been undertaken to restore the grasses and slow the flow during runoff. As a consequence what essentially had been a gutter has now with the passage of time been naturally restored to a creek which has been populated by fish without any stocking whatsoever.

During the fall and spring spawns many fish make their way into the creek for that purpose so that now it is an important part of the restocking of the Fryinp Pan at that point.

Taylor Creek rescued from over grazing and livestock.

Closer view of fish. This was just a gutter some years back.

Wild fish. No stocking. Just healthy water.
