A massive reservoir with tons of opportunity for different outdoor activities, be sure to stop by the visitor center as they are so helpful and helping you find the right place for what you’re looking for within the rec area, with some nice gifts and resources as well!!

Beautiful Colorado! Very windy and not friendly for shoreline fishing. The dogs had a blast and the kids waded around in the water for bit. I recommend having a boat or water floating of some sort. Zero amenities and absolutely breath taking scenery.

Beautiful campground, not a bad site to be used. Not too much shade, bring your sunscreen!
