About
Beaver Creek Group Campground is a popular group camping destination nestled along the south fork of the Stillaguamish River in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. The campground features spectacular views of the 6,153-foot Big Four Mountain and is surrounded by old-growth stands of cedar, fir, and hemlock. The fairly flat terrain makes this an excellent site for families with small children. The campground accommodates up to 25 people and includes four tent pads, four picnic tables, and two separate camping areas around two fire pits. A vault toilet is available on-site, but visitors must bring their own water as none is available at the campground. The location offers excellent access to recreation opportunities year-round. In summer and fall, visitors enjoy hiking, fishing, picnicking, and horseback riding. The nearby Big Four Ice Caves Trail showcases impressive ice fields visible from August through October. The Gold Basin Mill Pond interpretive trail, located across from Gold Basin Campground, features a barrier-free path with mill relics and wildlife viewing. Winter brings opportunities for skiing and snowshoeing. The diverse forest habitat supports a variety of wildlife including black bears, with occasional grizzly bear sightings confirmed in the Cascade region.
Directions
From Verlot Public Service Center, travel east on the Mountain Loop Scenic Byway for 13 miles. The campground is on the south side of the road along the river.
