Nestled in the mountains north of Steamboat Springs, this peaceful park sits in a quiet forest setting. Surrounded by mountains and trees, visitors camp along the lake and up a gentle hill.

There’s excellent fly and lure fishing for native cutthroat trout as they flash their red throats when pulled from the water. This is a true escape from the day-to-day routine.   A trail takes visitors along the shoreline and leads them deep into the forest.  Picnicking is picture perfect amongst the big trees that frame the lake.
