  • Lake Pueblo State Park Beach

Set amidst high plains of the east and alpine peaks to the west, Lake Pueblo is a star attraction in Colorado. The lake's asymmetrical sixty mile shoreline is edged with limestone cliffs. At an elevation of 4690 feet and with 4500 surface acres of water the beach located here is a great source of recreation. You have exciting water sports parks. The fishing is exceptional.

401 campsites accommodate tents, pick-up campers, motor homes and trailers at the campgrounds at Yucca Flats, Prairie Ridge and Arkansas point. Here you have modern toilets, showers, laundry facilities and electricity. But campgrounds at Kettle Creek and Juniper Breaks are rather primitive and have vault restrooms with no running water.

Facilities at the beach include a sand beach, grass picnic area, picnic tables, grills, showers, first aid, lockers, a snack bar and water slide. With its huge expanse of surface water the reservoir hosts many water sports. No glass or pets are allowed in the swim area. Children 12 years or younger need to be supervised. Cliff diving and rock jumping are prohibited.

There are group picnic shelters at Northshore Marina, Southshore Marina and Rock Canyon. Each can accommodate more than 100 people easily. Swimming is permitted only at the swim beach at Rock Canyon that has the 5-story waterslide! Lifeguards are on duty as posted but swimming is always at the risk of the individual. You need to pay a fee to enter the beach area.

With miles of hiking and biking trails you might explore the dam and surrounding area. This spot is for sun lovers and water-sports enthusiasts. Boaters, water-skiers and swimmers are going to love it here. Despite it being a very popular recreational destination the beach is large and you will never feel getting crowded.
