We also often have Nesting Bald Eagles and Osprey. Please follow proper wildlife viewing ettiquette to avoid disturbing wildlife. The lake is home to a wide variety of waterfowl and many small migrants use the park as a summer home.BoatingThe 1,053-acre reservoir provides a variety of water-based activities. Some coves and inlets are restricted to wakeless boating and are indicated by buoys. A large portion of the lake is zoned for wake boating, water-skiers and jet-skiers to enjoy. Registrations for motor and wind-powered vessels are available at the Visitor Center.Ten camper cabins are available year around. For information and reservations, please call Steamboat Lake Marina at (970) 879-7019CampingSummer camping facilities include 188 campsites, some along the shore, some in the trees.

Reservations for 2019 may be made 6 months in advance, with a first reservable date of May 24th and a last reservable date of September 9th. After those dates we are open for walk-in camping until Mother Nature shuts us down.

FishingSteamboat Lake offers excellent opportunities for bait, lure and fly fishing. In winter, ice fishing is available. The bag limit is four trout daily with a possession limit of eight trout total. GeocachingWe have several geocaches in the park! Here are the Coordinates for one of them: N 40° 48.748 W 106° 57.658.HikingWe have three trails in the park: The outstanding Tombstone Nature Trail, a 1.1 mile loop below the Visitor Center, is a self-guided trail that educates hikers on nature and history of the area. The Willow Creek Trail connects the Marina and Sage Flats and provides a nice view along the lake. The Poverty Bar trail connects to the Willow Creek Trail via Forest Service 409 and provides information about the history of mining in the area.Horseback RidingHorseback riding is allowed in undeveloped areas of the park around the southeast corner of the lake.

Ice conditions can vary, so please use caution. Before going out onto a frozen lake, pond or river, it's important to take safety precautions to reduce the risk of falling through the ice. Knowing how to judge ice conditions will also help you make more informed decisions while enjoying winter activities.Jet SkiingApproximately half of the lake is open to wake speed boating, including jet-skis. Please remember to wear your PFD as well as having other safety gear accessible and functional.OHV RidingOHV's are not allowed to operate in park; however, there are hundreds of miles of excellent trails on forest service land immediately surrounding the park.

Pay attention to weather, especially winds.PhotographyWith foggy mornings in the winter, a diverse array of wildflowers and wildlife, blue skies, plenty of brilliant Aspen trees in the fall and breathtaking sunsets year-round, our valley is one of the most scenic in Colorado. Photographs of our park have been used in numerous major publications.PicnickingPicnic tables offering either grills or fire rings are available at the Placer Cove day-use area, Tombstone Nature Trailhead, Sage Flats day-use area and the Dutch Hill Marina area.SailboardingAfternoons are generally more windy.

Most of the park is also available for off-trail riding, as are the hundreds of thousands of acres of surrounding National Forest. Grooming depends on weather conditions.SnowshoeingEnjoy beautiful views of snow-covered mountains on a marked trail that winds through a forest of aspen and lodgepole pine.SwimmingWith water temperatures in the low 70s in late summer, hardy souls can enjoy the swim area at Dutch Hill.

We also often have Nesting Bald Eagles and Osprey. Please follow proper wildlife viewing ettiquette to avoid disturbing wildlife. The lake is home to a wide variety of waterfowl and many small migrants use the park as a summer home.BoatingThe 1,053-acre reservoir provides a variety of water-based activities. Some coves and inlets are restricted to wakeless boating and are indicated by buoys. A large portion of the lake is zoned for wake boating, water-skiers and jet-skiers to enjoy. Registrations for motor and wind-powered vessels are available at the Visitor Center.Ten camper cabins are available year around.

The Poverty Bar trail connects to the Willow Creek Trail via Forest Service 409 and provides information about the history of mining in the area.Horseback RidingHorseback riding is allowed in undeveloped areas of the park around the southeast corner of the lake.

We also often have Nesting Bald Eagles and Osprey. Please follow proper wildlife viewing ettiquette to avoid disturbing wildlife. The lake is home to a wide variety of waterfowl and many small migrants use the park as a summer home.BoatingThe 1,053-acre reservoir provides a variety of water-based activities. Some coves and inlets are restricted to wakeless boating and are indicated by buoys. A large portion of the lake is zoned for wake boating, water-skiers and jet-skiers to enjoy. Registrations for motor and wind-powered vessels are available at the Visitor Center.Ten camper cabins are available year around.

The bag limit is four trout daily with a possession limit of eight trout total. GeocachingWe have several geocaches in the park!

The Poverty Bar trail connects to the Willow Creek Trail via Forest Service 409 and provides information about the history of mining in the area.Horseback RidingHorseback riding is allowed in undeveloped areas of the park around the southeast corner of the lake.

Pay attention to weather, especially winds.PhotographyWith foggy mornings in the winter, a diverse array of wildflowers and wildlife, blue skies, plenty of brilliant Aspen trees in the fall and breathtaking sunsets year-round, our valley is one of the most scenic in Colorado. Photographs of our park have been used in numerous major publications.PicnickingPicnic tables offering either grills or fire rings are available at the Placer Cove day-use area, Tombstone Nature Trailhead, Sage Flats day-use area and the Dutch Hill Marina area.SailboardingAfternoons are generally more windy.

We also often have Nesting Bald Eagles and Osprey. Please follow proper wildlife viewing ettiquette to avoid disturbing wildlife. The lake is home to a wide variety of waterfowl and many small migrants use the park as a summer home.BoatingThe 1,053-acre reservoir provides a variety of water-based activities.

The Poverty Bar trail connects to the Willow Creek Trail via Forest Service 409 and provides information about the history of mining in the area.Horseback RidingHorseback riding is allowed in undeveloped areas of the park around the southeast corner of the lake.
