Approximately between 2002 and 2005. The airport was listed as active in the 2002 FAA Airport/Facility Directory but was depicted as closed on 2004-2005 aerial imagery, with the runway showing signs of disuse and becoming overgrown.
The specific reason is not publicly documented, which is common for small, privately-owned airfields. The closure was likely due to economic factors, the sale of the property, or the owner ceasing aviation activities for personal reasons. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a major accident or for military conversion.
The site is no longer an active airport. As of the latest satellite imagery, the former 3,000-foot turf runway is completely overgrown with grass and small trees, though its outline is still clearly visible. The hangar building on the east side of the former runway appears to still be standing. The property is maintained as a private rural estate, with the former runway now functioning as a large, open field.
Beaver Creek Airport (formerly FAA LID: GA91) was a private-use general aviation airfield. It featured a single turf runway (Runway 3/21) measuring approximately 3,000 feet long by 100 feet wide. Its operations were limited to private flights by the owner and potentially other permitted local pilots. The airport's significance was purely local, serving as a private airstrip for recreational or business flying, rather than a public or commercial hub. A hangar on the property indicates that at least one aircraft was likely based there.
There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Beaver Creek Airport. Given that it has been closed for approximately two decades and the runway has reverted to nature, reopening would require significant investment and a renewed interest from the property owner. It is highly unlikely to return to service as an airfield.
