Your vacation is easy at this park, just open the cabin door, toss in your sleeping bag, and head out for a peaceful walk by the lake or cross-country ski along the trails.

Built in 1998, the five 12’ x 12’ cabins provide simple necessities, an electric heater, beds with mattresses, a small refrigerator and coffeepot for early morning breeze. The cabins, nestle in the popular park, located in N Colorado, and feature large windows for mountain views and lake views. The park is open year around. There is premier fishing, hunting and boating in the area. Anglers can catch rainbow and cutthroat trout from the lake, and occasionally brown trout. Hunting, including big game and waterfowl is permitted during certain seasons.

There are great hiking trails in the part that also wind through Routt National Forest. Consider mountain biking in summer and four wheeling. A concessionaire provides horseback riding in the summer and guided snowmobile tours in the winter. Winter comes alive with ice fishing, cross-country skiing and access to 60 miles of premier snowmobiling trails. Track cross-country trails were completed in 1999. Maps are available for a nominal charge.

You can drive right up to the cabins. Showers and flush toilets are available from May through October, with vault toilets only in the winter months. No cooking allowed inside the cabin, except coffeepots, a picnic table and fire ring and campsite just are outside the cabins. In the winter, a cook stove may be used on the four-foot porch.
