Granite Falls is a destination world introduced in The Sims 4: Outdoor Retreat game pack. Sims can vacation in Granite Falls for up to seven days but are unable to reside there as they would in normal residential worlds.

Once Sims have settled down, they can start exploring the bug-infested woods with a special self-interaction that allows them to go 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 stations are also present and offer Sims a way to buy objects necessary for camping and can provide general information about the campgrounds. Various bears, who will make Sims tense, will also roam around the world, mostly in the campground area.

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 aren't required to be in a rental lot and can appear in the world in a similar fashion to townies.
