High on the Colorado Plateau you'll find this gorgeous lake. It's at an elevation of about 8,400 feet so it's the perfect summer escape from the heat. I come here at least twice a year during the summer months and I love how small the community is. Everyone knows each other.
The lake itself is a substantial size covering about 1,300 acres.
There are cabins on the lake and above in the surrounding hills. There's also a little market in town and just a few restaurants. Plan accordingly and bring what you need if you plan on staying for a few days. The location is also awesome because it's near one of my favorite hiking spots, Cedar Breaks and close to Zion & Bryce Canyon.
The lake is surrounded by forest. It's so beautiful. Most folks visit to fish as you can find rainbow, cutthroat, brown, and brook trout. You can also canoe or kayak around the lake.
