Beaver Creek Ranger Station, Forest Service station in Rimrock, United States
Beaver Creek Ranger Station is a forest management complex with three main buildings and two additional structures on a large property near Rimrock in Arizona. The facility includes a ranger office, residential quarters, and a maintenance building for equipment and upkeep work.
The station was built in 1935 by the Civilian Conservation Corps, a Depression-era program that employed young men on public land projects. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 as a significant example from that period.
The buildings show the simple, practical design style common to Forest Service structures from that era. You can see this in the windows, woodwork, and how the structures are put together.
The complex sits northeast of Rimrock near Interstate 17 and is easily accessible by car. The grounds are open to view, with the buildings visible from outside, allowing visitors to see the historic structures in their original setting.
The station preserves the original building arrangement and land layout from the 1930s. This gives visitors a rare view of how the Forest Service designed and organized its administrative compounds in that era.
