A bit off the beaten path, located just North of Rifle Colorado, the Rifle Gap State Park surrounds the Rifle Gap Reservoir. In addition to the lake offering boating, fishing, swimming opportunities the state park has a visitor center, with gift shop and campgrounds.

Great park. Super helpful staff. We reserved a spot up on the hill, but wanted to be closer to the lake. Called the front office and they were more than happy to move us closer to the lake. The camp spot was immaculate and raked like a Japanese garden. Will definitely return!

It wasn’t too crowded on weekdays. Bugs were at a minimum, temps weren’t too high. Clean beaches. One concern was that it’s a relatively small reservoir that allows motorized boats- there are buoys and designated areas for kayaks and swimmers but the wakes from the motorized boats still impact the areas it shouldn’t. Otherwise, thumbs up.

The park was not very crowded with only a boat or two on the water. We took our kayaks out and had the most relaxing afternoon! The park is so clean. The water is absolutely beautiful and clear. Stunning views. I will be going back many times this summer!

Rifle Gap State Park is a nice, clean park and lake that makes for a great weekend getaway to camp, grill, fish, paddleboard, and canoe. The views are beautiful, the location is easy to access, and pets are welcome. Make a reservation in advance, and once you are there, drive around to write down campsites that appeal to you for future visits. Bring your toys and provide various activities to keep you busy if you plan on staying a few nights. Or just enjoy nature and hang out at your campsite. Respect the park and clean up your mess.
