Good to know

  • Bring layers for the drive because Duck Creek often feels cooler than the desert below.
  • If you are arriving after dark, slow down for wildlife on Highway 14.

Duck Creek Village Inn sits at 8,400 feet in the Dixie National Forest, about 45 minutes from Cedar City via Highway 14. The final approach is scenic, winding, and part of the experience, so plan a little extra time and arrive ready for mountain weather.

From Cedar City

Take Highway 14 east from Cedar City and climb through meadow and forest for roughly 25 miles. It is the simplest year-round approach, and it is the route most guests use after fueling up, buying groceries, or grabbing coffee in town.

From Las Vegas

Drive north on I-15 to Cedar City, then leave the interstate and follow Highway 14 into Duck Creek Village. The trip is straightforward enough for a same-day arrival, but the last segment feels slower than interstate driving, so avoid cutting it too close to sunset in stormy weather.

From Salt Lake City

Travel south on I-15 to Cedar City, then climb east on Highway 14. If Duck Creek is part of a longer Utah road trip, many guests pair this route with Bryce Canyon or Highway 89 and turn the transfer day into part of the adventure.

Arrival Planning

Set your GPS to Duck Creek Village Inn, 815 East Hwy 14, Duck Creek Village, UT 84762. Cell service can be thinner once you leave Cedar City, so download directions in advance and keep an eye on afternoon weather, especially during monsoon season and winter storms.
