This out of the way campground is gorgeous. It was quiet. There are 8 sites, not too close together. The vault toilet was clean, fresh water is available. About half of the sites offer no shade in the middle of the day, and I was there during record heat. I'll return!

Beautiful and peaceful

Visited during November and I had the place to myself. Thankfully there is no locked gate!

Perfect out of the way campground

I was looking for a nearby geocache and discovered this campground was close by.  I didn't camp but I was impressed by such a nice campground not being closed in the winter!

November camping and no locked gate!!

Coming from WY side, you navigate through a private camp then come to Beaver Creek. Peaceful. Navigating from SD side is much more difficult but possible coming from Deerfield Lake via gravel Hwy 85 following signs. Non-electric sites. Free camping when season is closed. Potable water available during season. Vault toilet open.

Good spot once you get there

Due to it's remoteness, it appears some campers are taking advantage of the CG. Lots of trash and a pile of dog poop were left in a site vacated on my second day.  Many other campers don't understand the need to put seat down and close door of vault toilet.
There is no trash collection, so pack it out, please.
Otherwise, this is a cute CG. No cell service. Water pump is provided but it's a workout to use.  Sites 1&amp;8 are the best. Trees for some shade. 1 has creek right behind it.
Don't use GoogleMap as it does not take you to actual destination.  USFS directions are off a bit, but are pretty good. Less gravel road if you come from Wyoming side.
