Beaver Creek Cabin (ID)

Nice location and very fair price. There was no electricity and mice ate a hole through my pack to get at my food. Not a bad stay.

The facility and the surrounding grounds were exceptional. This is my second stay in this cabin. I snow-shoed into the cabin in the winter and then drove to the cabin in the summer.
I would make two recommendations. 1) Recognizing that this is in somewhat of a wilderness area I would post several signs inside the cabin to encourage visitors to make sure they secure all of their food in containers that rodents cannot penetrate.
2). The directions to the cabin and signage is HORRIBLE! The mileage from Idaho City is not correct. I spent almost two hours trying to find the turnoff. There are numerous roads/trails that are marked with the same designation. My family and I turned around and were headed back to Eagle because we could not find the turnoff. I spotted one last trail with the designated number and turned around and we were so lucky that it was the correct one.

Really cool location- the setting is beautiful with the creek running near by. The grounds are expansive so plenty of room for parking and recreating near the cabin. The Beaver Creek trail is a real nice hike, although had some downed trees across it making it a bit challenging to mtn bike. Gobs of firewood right out the door so that's nice. Biggest negative was that torture chamber bed in the main room! I'm a pretty easy sleeper and even I couldn't sleep on that lumpy excuse for a bed. Then of course there was a TON of flies in the cabin but was probably the time of the year- September. Be aware, there's no lights (electric or propane) so either bring your own lantern bulbs to fix theirs (found no spares), or bring lights of your own!

Beautiful hiking in the area. Theres a nice little pond to sit by or let the kids play in. It was quiet nestled off from the hwy. Plenty of accommodations. The updates were nice and the new beds were comfortable. We had a lovely stay.

Other than the mice droppings, this place was a great get away. The pond out back is fun for the dogs and we got the refrigerator working so that wasn't a problem. This is our 4th time up there and we hope to return!!
