Lake Pueblo State Park

Beautiful area of Colorado with spacious camp sites for tents or campers. Good hiking trails with incredible views await you to overlook the lake.

This is a large state park which is a real gem. The campgrounds are really nice and well maintained. There are miles of trails around the park. Some campgrounds lend themselves to larger RVs, some are more oriented to camping. The views are amazing.

Lake Pueblo State Park isn't the most luxurious in terms of landscape or big campsites, but it does have a big lake, hiking trails and tranquility.The dam is such a sight to see. Honestly, one of the coolest architectural dams I've seen. There is not a lot of greenery compared to other state parks. It's mostly flat rocks, brush and the great plains. However, its still beautiful and a nice place to relax and enjoy the water.They've got a nice marina and pier, which most state parks I've been to don't have. The park has loads of campsites all varying in size and location. And each one has a covered picnic table. What a great place to get away from it all.

I rode my MTB here on 12/31/21 in biking shorts and a tee! I know we've been having mild weather but from what I've heard, it's typically warmer down there. There was some climbing, but nothing crazy. Also the blacks weren't overly technical. A few questionable rock drops (loose rock) and some wood ramps down, that's it. Some trails were fairly flat and out in a field. The views when by the reservoir were nice. In the valley trails tucked in a bit they were full. Of. Tumbleweeds. Crazy amounts. So that required some stopping to pull them out of our brakes and cassette. Overall a fun riding spot. For me living over an hour away, not something that I'm in a rush to drive that far for since there's so much closer to home. Though maybe a good option if the trails in the Springs are snow covered. Broken hip trail was super fun and flowy.

Great get away from The City so to speak. I haven't caught a bass in Colorado yet so I made my way to Pueblo Lake. Fishexplorer.com helped me with maps, inside information I needed to catch fish. The reports said Good fishing and I wasn't disappointed. 60 miles of shoreline to choose from open 9AM-4PM daily. Good for picnicking with the family. You can rent Jet Skis, kayaks or canoes. Great views of the mountains while fishing or boating. A Top rated recreation reservoir of fresh water south of The Springs.

We enjoyed our time at Lake Pueblo State Park. Beautiful hiking all over the park. We had electric and water hookups and they worked great for us. Nice amenties. Great place for kids to run around and explore.

I love this place it has it all of you bike, walk run. They trails are well taken care of. It's a great place to go in the winter it's about 20 degrees warmer the Colorado Springs most days . You can fish, bird watch. So much to do. Help out and take your trash to a trash can. Help pick up trash if you can

I appreciate the area's natural beauty (thus the 3 stars), but I have serious concerns about the lack of hunting regulations. I've frequently witnessed hunters shooting very close to hiking trails. Many cyclists have had to duck quickly as gunshots ring out, and I've seen hikers yelling at hunters, warning that someone could get hurt. While some hunters are courteous and will wait for hikers to pass before firing, many are not. I've talked to several hikers who share my concerns about the hunters firing their guns near the trails. I've also approached park rangers about this issue, but nothing has changed. This place might suit you if you don't mind feeling terrified during a morning walk. But if, during hunting season, you want to go for a safe walk, go somewhere else.

Best time is not summer for natural beauty due to noisy boaters, etc.Camping suffers from unregulated partying deep into night on weekends.Park Rangers are available at night if issues... must call local sheriff deputies.Weekday camping is the most pleasant.

I love to paddle board here in the cove off Turkey Creek Road way over on the west side. It's never busy, it's beautiful, lots of water birds, sunshine, and gorgeous views of the mountains!
