Grizzly Flats FAQ
<How many stores, gas stations, hotels, etc, do you have in Grizzly Flats?

None. There are no conveniences such as those in our community. There is a ranger station, a church, a fire station, a post office and a school. On the other side of our town line, there is a small water company. There is also a realty office on the corner of Evergreen and String Canyon. Other than that, the structures within our town limits are all residential.

Then how far away are these amenities?

The closest place to Grizzly Flats where you can purchase ANYthing is the Somerset Store at the intersection of Buck’s Bar Road and Mt Aukum Road. (At this point, Buck’s Bar Road turns into Grizzly Flat Road) The Somerset Store is 15 miles down the mountain from Grizzly Flats and, depending on road conditions and what vehicle you get behind takes around 20 minutes to travel. The Somerset Store is a convenience store with bare essentials.

Take a right on Mt Aukum Road (coming from Grizzly Flats) at the Somerset intersection and go another 4-5 miles and you will come to a Holiday market that is an actual grocery store. Across from Holiday, there is a pizza parlor (The Pizza Factory), an Ace Hardware Store, a pet clinic, a hair salon, a book and antique store and a Chinese restaurant (Wonderful Chinese).>
