Excellent lake, great for fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking or just hanging out relaxing and taking in the view.

There is no cost and this is a fantastic place to hike, fly fish, kayak, picnic or bike. It’s beautiful and there are hiking trails all around. Right next to the I-70 and easy to get to. Very beautiful and not a lot of tourists. A great place to take kids also. I hiked the trail east of the lake and it was full of beautiful surprises.

Great place for a nice short lake walk. The trail is mostly flat and very well maintained. Bring your binoculars because we often saw big horn sheep across the 70.

The fishing is good, find a spot to sit down and enjoy the scenery for the day. Even if you don't catch anything, it was a good day fishing.

How is the fishing and do you have any good tips

Genaro Valadez | Jan 31, 2018
Ray Osborne | Feb 1, 2018

The fishing depends on when the State stocks the lake. As far as tips, bottom fishing with salmon eggs and/or powerbait like any other lake. There's really no special spot, the shore along the I-70 frontage road has many places to set up. Bring a chair, wet a line, and enjoy the scenery and beauty.

Is the lake open? Heard the flooding did some damage

Jonathan Douglas | Aug 22, 2021
Barbara Hodges | Aug 23, 2021

It is open, spent about an hour there tonight walking and taking pictures of the loons in the lake🙂

Can you park an RV near your fishing spot

S Thomas | Aug 13, 2021
Nick W | Aug 14, 2021

There is no overnight parking, and while I can't guarantee if you can park an RV, we regularly seen class B & C RVs in the parking lot. Class A may not be allowed and/ or may not fit anywhere.
