A 2.1 mile trail takes you to Beaver Lake at Moose River Plains, home at one time to the Wilcox Hotel.
Starting near the confluence of the Otter Brook and Moose River, the Beaver Lake Trail follows the scenic Moose River for 3/4 mile, before climbing up a small hill, and passing several old growth trees. Eventually you reach a clearing, where an old saw mill, and Beaver Lake. There are several campsites along the shore of Beaver Lake.
