Cedar Creek Timber & Wetland (formally known as Cedar Creek Timber) was originally a 105 acre public hunting area.

In 2005 the I.D.O.T. purchased 170 acres of Cedar Creek bottomland for a wetland mitigation site. Tiles were broken and dirt berms were constructed to enhance the wetland.

These two areas are now known as Cedar Creek Timber & Wetland.

The area is open to public hunting and has excellent populations of deer, turkey, squirrels and migratory waterfowl.
