I don't think so, I did that too with my cycling town, knowing it's just going to be a cycling for the moment & an actual town I'd plan to complete soon. I didn't reset for more than a day though. I got tired quick.
I suggest if you found a map that's closest to what you're envisioning, look no further. You might regret passing up on that one. I was like, as long as there was a secluded land near the river for my planned castle with no villagers living on it & Re-Tail is not located too far from the beach, I'll pick that & be done with it. If you don't choose what you really like, you'd end up not feeling your town anyways, and would want to reset in the future.
I know I said 3 days, but its more like over the last 3 days. Only really done it for maybe 3 hours a day. Maybe 4 or 5 on one day. All I'm looking for is a nice open area without many rocks near the train tracks for my mayor's house, with a lake near.. and preferably well spaced out town hall, re-tail and plaza. And native fruit being apples. :s
