[[File:Granite Falls ingame icon.png|left|60px]]'''Granite Falls''' is a destination [[world]] introduced in ''[[The Sims 4: Outdoor Retreat]]'' game pack. Sims can [[Vacationing|vacation]] in Granite Falls for up to seven days, but cannot live there as in normal residential worlds.
 
Granite Falls is a nature oriented location, surrounded by pine trees, lakes and sprawling valleys. It is heavily oriented around camping and the activities related to it, but Sims can also rent pre-built indoor lots for a comfier experience. Once Sims have settled down, they can start exploring the bug-infested woods with a special self-interaction that allows them to go [[Hiking and jogging|hiking]]. Many campfires are located throughout the woods, allowing Sims to have a nice place to grill food or tell stories to each other. [[Ranger station]]s are also present and offer Sims a way to buy objects necessary for camping and can also provide general information about the campgrounds. Various [[bear]]s, who will make Sims [[tense]], will also roam around the world, mostly in the campground area.
Granite Falls has two neighborhoods.<ref name="Kotaku OR announce">[http://kotaku.com/the-sims-4-is-getting-an-outdoorsy-game-pack-next-month-1673213480 "''The Sims 4'' is Getting an Outdoorsy 'Game Pack' Next Month"] on [http://kotaku.com Kotaku.com]. Retrieved 20 December 2014</ref> Visitors arrive in the Campground neighborhood. Sims will have only what they carry with them, and will need to procure additional supplies from a Ranger Station upon arriving. Sims will be able to set up a tent and camp, or they can stay in pre-built cabins. The second neighborhood is Granite Falls National Park, a lush forest full of plants, insects and scenic vistas.<ref name="Kotaku OR announce"/>
 
If there are any empty rental lots available as the player's Sims are vacationing, the game will randomly choose a family from the save game's worlds and populate the empty rental lots with those chosen families. However, in order for currently unplayed Sims to appear in Granite Falls they do not need to be in a rental lot, and can appear in the world in a similar fashion to [[townie]]s.
