Beaver Creek is a great rustic cabin. In the wintertime, it's just far enough off the beaten track to be very quiet and peaceful, while being not very difficult to get to. The well-stocked wood stove, adequate dishes and kitchen utensils, etc. make for a cozy trip. There's many miles of great cross-country skiing (or snowshoeing) available from the cabin. We keep coming back, for 11 years now!

Nice cabin, experience would have been better if ability to close the gate which is available at other guard station cabins in the area. Many vehicles drove through. People walked into area from trail. Could use a larger sign as most of the cabins have, Please respect the privacy of the cabin occupants.

Overall it was very good. Clean enough. the replacement sofa is much more comfortable this year..
My only complaints are that 1) A number of time different parties of people walked passed the closed gate up to the cabin -staring, snooping - in spite of the sign at the gate to respect the privacy….
2) I killed 2 mice with the mouse trap and had the sense there were more. They had gotten into my packaged foods.

Nice cabin. Tucked away. Wood burning stove keeps the cabin toasty. Requires snowshoes to access in winter and spring as there is a lot of snow and it stays late. Gas lights work and are a plus. Have exact GPS coordinates for cabin and don't attempt to find in the dark if snowshoeing, like we did ;)

Recently updated wood stove and floor makes this cabin so much nicer to stay at. There are so many trails to hike, snowshoe, or cross-country ski on. It is a great destination during the winter and summer

This was our 10th winter trip to Beaver Creek Cabin. The cabin was very clean, there was enough firewood to keep us plenty warm, and the snow conditions were perfect for skiing. The night sky and stars were awesome.
