About Beaver Creek Campground
This is a free campground located 63 miles south of the town of Hungry Horse on the gravel East Side Reservoir Road 38. The campground is located at an elevation of 4,200 feet and is open from May 15 through November 30. Beaver Creek Campground is situated next to Spotted Bear River just off the Spotted Bear River Road 568. The 4 unit campground is set back from the road and the campsites are less than 100 feet to the river. The site is located in an old growth stand of trees. It is a moderate use site that usually has open campsites during the middle of the week. It often is used as a base for fishing in the summer and for the late season hunt in late October and November. For stock users, it is also used as trailhead parking when the Silvertip Trailhead at the end of Spotted Bear River Road 568 is closed from 5/15 through 6/30, and 9/1 through 11/30. Campsites can accommodate tents…
