History
Golf course developer Duffy Martin constructed the Cedar Valley Golf Club during 1973–4 in rural Logan County, near Cedar Creek, an unincorporated place with 61 residents in 1960. Several residences were also built on the property, and the new community had an estimated population of 33 by 1980. Residents voted to incorporate Cedar Valley in July 1982. Two additional golf courses opened in the early 1980s. Cimarron National Golf Club opened in August 1992 and Aqua Canyon opened in 1994. The town population was 61 in the 1990 census, 58 in 2000 and 288 in 2010.
