Beaver Creek Cabin (ID)

About this spot

Overview The Beaver Creek Cabin site was established for administrative use in 1912. The current dwelling was built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps using standard blueprints for that time. Beaver Creek Cabin is open year-round. It's accessible by car in the summer months and by snowshoes or cross-country skis in winter. Guests arriving in winter should park at the Whoop-Um-Up Park N' Ski Area (permit required) and access the 1.5 mile Pilgrim Trail to reach the cabin. The trail is moderately difficult in normal conditions, and guests are responsible for their own safety. The cabin offers many creature comforts for an enjoyable stay. However, several of the amenities are only available seasonally. Guests should be prepared to bring certain supplies or gear according to the season. Recreation Numerous hiking, biking, horse, off-road vehicle and motorcycle trails are in the vicinity.

During the winter months, miles of cross-country ski and snowshoe trails are right out the front door. The Crooked River, Beaver Creek and beaver ponds all offer good rainbow, brook and cutthroat trout fishing. The 1-mile Beaver Creek Trail leads to the Crooked River and several small swimming holes. Good hunting can be found in this area in season.Facilities The cabin can accommodate a maximum of four people with two twin beds with mattresses and one futon in the living room (bedding not provided).
