Beaver Lake State Park, State park near Napoleon, United States.
Beaver Lake State Park is a nature preserve on the western shore of a lake in North Dakota, blending prairie grasslands with forested areas. The property includes hiking paths along the water's edge and several accommodation options for overnight visitors.
The preserve was established in the 1930s after local people pushed for its creation. During this period, important infrastructure such as roads and recreation facilities were built with labor from federal work programs.
A stone monument within the park commemorates the Works Progress Administration laborers who constructed roads, paths, and recreation facilities in 1935.
The area can be explored on foot, with several miles of paths along the lake shore offering different difficulty levels. Overnight stays are available at modern camping sites or in seasonal cabins, both providing basic amenities.
The grounds sit at an elevation that offers views of landscapes shaped by glacial movements from past ice ages. These geological features are visible in the rolling hills and terrain patterns that characterize the property.
