The cemetery is on private property and not accessible by public roads. It is not maintained. Due to controlled burns, some of the headstones are in disrepair. This picture was taken on a hike sponsored by Hitchcock Nature Area which is adjacent to the land this cemetery is on.

(1988): Between Honey Creek and Crescent on the Old Lincoln Highway (formerly 183?), there is a turnoff heading west and a sign for the Mt. Crescent Ski slope.

This gravel road is called Ski Hill Loop on the Google map (in 2011). You cross a bridge and the road turns north. You pass 2 farms on the left. About a quarter mile past the second one there is an unmarked turnoff (really just a wide spot) on the left. There is just barely room to park. There's a gate, a steep track up the hill, another gate, and you're in the small cemetery. There are probably fewer than 100 graves, not all visible or readable due to the extreme lack of maintenance. (This was in 1988 and it may be different now.)
