Little Beaver State Park History 

Little Beaver State Park was developed in 1972 as a day-use park, although the area had long been a popular destination for 4-H campers and fishermen thanks to the construction of an 18-acre lake by Little Beaver Creek’s damming. In order to increase chances for this well-liked family reunion and vacation destination, the park was refurbished in 2011 with the addition of 46 camping spots.
