Beatty is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Klamath County, Oregon, United States.[3] Beatty is along Oregon Route 140 at the confluence of the Sycan and Sprague rivers and is 40 miles (64 km) by highway northeast of Klamath Falls.[4]

Beatty was named for J. L. Beatty, a missionary who lived nearby when the area was in the Klamath Indian Reservation.[5] The post office in Beatty, ZIP code 97621, was established in 1913.[5] Toby "Winema" Riddle is buried near Beatty.[6]

Beatty had a station on the Oregon, California and Eastern Railway, which by 1927 reached from Klamath Falls to Bly.[7] A 1941 timetable lists Beatty as the 13th stop east of Klamath Falls between Sprague River and Sycan.[8] After 1990, the rail line passing near Beatty became part of a rail trail, the OC&E Woods Line State Trail, managed by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department.[7][9]
