Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Eleven Mile State Park adventure.
Bring your boat on a camping adventure at one of Colorado’s largest reservoirs.
With one of the largest reservoirs in the state, Eleven Mile State Park is wildly popular with anglers and boaters alike, particularly in the summer high season, when motorized boats are permitted to use the reservoir. The park is also great for birdwatching, and it's not uncommon to spot raptors, songbirds, peregrine falcons, white pelicans, and even bald eagles. Land activities include hiking, cycling, and camping, and the park offers nine campgrounds with a total of 325 sites, some with full hook-ups, plus an additional 14 designated backcountry campsites.
High season at Eleven Mile runs from Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day Weekend. Temperatures are at their warmest this time of year, but there's also a greater chance of rain and thunderstorms, particularly in July and August. September is a great alternative, when kids have gone back to school and crowds are fewer. Wintertime is ideal for ice fishing, and there are monthly tournaments from January through March.
