Lake is low, no ramps probably due to reduce maneuverability in the marina area. I went up to relax on the lake and watch the air show at fort love last weekend. Good views from the lake.

The playground in the campground was awesome for the kids. Nice walking trails for the dogs. Sites in the older area are really close together. Recommend the newer campground if you want a little more space. The lake was low when we went in May.

Tight fit, busy local recreation area. Pros: Beautiful walking and bike trails. Nice laundry and shower facilities. Cons: super tight pull through sites. Most will not accommodate a 32 foot rig and tow vehicle. Roads are very rough inside the park. No directional signs when entering so we had to circle around 3 times to find water and figure out how to get into our site. “Waterfront” classification is deceptive. You can’t even see the water and are at least 200 yard walk to lake. Worst part is that the local swim beach and boat ramp are accessed through the same gate as campground. Weekend visitation to the beach was incredibly busy. When returning to our campsite on a Sunday afternoon,, we were stuck in an hour long traffic jam trying to get into the campground. Very poor design. Leaving a day early, just not happy here.

We stayed at the RV spots at Boyd Lake over a weekend. The spots were a little close together but not as close together as some places we’ve been to. I’ll try to add photos before we head out. Being by the water has been nice. Not sure we were at the “beach” but it was more muddy than sandy.

We stay here frequently. Great park. Has a rental shop where you can rent paddle boards, boogie boards, etc. I believe there is also the ability to rent different types of boats. This is one of my favorite Colorado state parks. Because it is within the Loveland city limits, I believe that the park gets sprayed for mosquitos and so they aren’t rampant there like they are elsewhere, for example, Jackson Lake.
