About this place

The Indian Creek road, FR-119, is how you get here. It runs 8 miles north of Beaver and 11 miles northeast of Manderfield, and there are several places along it to camp rough.

Nothing is marked out.

Stay off the meadows. No camping and no driving on them, and the 16-day limit is enforced.

The reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout through the summer. You can hand-launch a small boat there, as long as it has no motor on it.

There is 1 vault restroom and no water.

The roads around this place are not maintained for a regular car. That comes from the US Forest Service, who grade every road by the kind of vehicle it is looked after for. Those records cover the roads nearby. They do not cover the last stretch in to the campsite, and nobody has checked that part. Treat this as a warning. We are not promising what you will find when you get there. If you have driven it, tell us what it was like and we will say so here.

Rules and restrictions

Indian Creek Road is closed to unlicensed vehicles and unlicensed drivers.

No ATVs, unless the machine is street legal under Utah state law.

There is one exception. ATVs can get onto Forest Road #119, the Indian Creek Trail, between Forest Road #589 and Pole Canyon or Tanner Mountain.

What is near here

Nothing nationally famous is close. These are the landmarks nearby.

Every distance on this page is the driving distance. A short distance can still take a long time. The road may be closed for the season, covered in snow, or washed out. Many of these roads are dirt. Plan your route before you leave home. Out here there is often no phone signal to look it up on the way.

Nearest town and supplies

Beaver is big enough that you’d normally expect fuel and somewhere to buy food. Nobody from here has been to check, so don’t count on it if you’re running low.

Have you been here?

Fees and access change, and the records do not always keep up. If you have been, tell us what you found.

Add road notes for this site

The thing we cannot get from any government record is what the drive in is actually like. If you have done it, this is the most useful thing you can leave behind. We read everything before it appears, and we print a first name with it if you give one.

Where this information comes from

The description on this page is ours. The facts in it, and the fee and facility details below it, come from the Forest Service’s own records, read in August 2026.
