Equipment Rentals

For those looking to get the most from their experience at Beaver Creek Reserve

Trail Conditions (2/20/2026): Our cross-country ski and snowshoe rentals are closed for the season. The warmer weather has melted a lot of our snow, making it difficult to cross-country ski and snowshoe. Our north and south trails are both open for hiking. If you would like to hike, we recommend being extremely careful, wearing shoes with excellent traction or ice cleats, and bringing trekking poles if you have them. Please check in at the Wise Nature Center before adventuring out onto the trails, and prepare for your visit accordingly.

Snow Equipment

Snowshoe or ski on our trails, or take them to your cabin or another local park as they can now be taken off BCR property - see daily rates below. We stop renting out at 2:30 p.m. each day, and rentals must be returned by 3:30 p.m.
