Cedar Fork Park is a 22-acre tract located on both sides of Cedar Fork Creek at the southeast corner of State Route 42 and County Road 29 in Perry Township. Donated to the Park District by Kathleen and William Hurdle in 2000, the tract is primarily floodplain forest and contains the only trout stream in Morrow County. Near the south side of the creek is an extensive abandoned millrace. A large parking lot with hitching posts for horse-drawn vehicles leads to a path along the north side of the plot.
