Town of Cave Creek Local Landmarks


The Town of Cave Creek is as diverse as its residents, local businesses, culture, entertainment and wildlife! In an effort to celebrate this and promote exploration of the unique places which have shaped and housed the Town’s vibrant character (and characters!), the Town of Cave Creek is launching Cave Creek Local Landmarks. Iconic buildings and spaces in Town are being recognized by a bronze plaque award which inter-connects the celebrated landmarks to a storytelling map. This map hosts destinations across Cave Creek for the public to explore virtually, physically, and throughout time— through the storytelling of Cave Creek’s pioneers, their descendants, and you; its residents and guests.

The most attractive story-viewing experience is via Google Earth, which is a third-party application most must download to their phones.  If you prefer not to download an external application then you can click on the map below and enter full screen mode to make the most of it!
