Cottonwood Creek is a tributary to Cherry Creek Reservoir and is the site of an innovative restoration project designed to stabilize the channel and recreate a natural, well-vegetated, functional prairie stream system. Enjoy this guided exploration with knowledgeable naturalists. The Cherry Creek Stewardship Partners organize volunteer opportunities specifically to assist with the Cottonwood Creek Restoration. Volunteers help to assess the overall health and function of the stream and wetland complex.
