What kinds of diversions do your wife and kids enjoy? Creede is a small mining town. You can walk up and down the main street where there are shops in 5 minutes. S. Fork is an intersection of two main roads--not much to do unless they want to golf at a very expensive course. There are raft trips out of Creede on the Rio Grande and millions of acres of national forest as well as many lakes stocked with trout specifically for bait fishers who want to fish from the bank.
No man can have too many fly rods;
no woman too many shoes.
