Jackson Lake. Sounds like a good time, but is extremely underwhelming for a Colorado State Park…read more I have family who live close by but have never been to Jackson Lake until recently. I wasn't impressed, in fact, I was surprised that they even call this a state park at all. Things to do include camping, fishing and boating. There's not much else besides a hiking trail or two. In the winter, the lake freezes over so I saw a lot of people ice fishing. There are a few areas with open land with hardly, if any, shade coverage at all and there are a few picnic areas and camping sites, but that's about it. Maybe I came at the wrong time of year since the lake was frozen over and all the leaves have fallen. I don't know, I just didn't see much charm to the place.

Eagle canyon is a unique lodging area on the other side of the dam on Lake Mcconaughy. We usually…read morestay at the beach houses right across from Martin Bay, but we weren't able to secure any spots there, so we went with the only available area for a group of 10, and Eagle Canyon was it. Based on other reviews and the photos I was able to set my own expectations for the trip. I knew our cabin, the lily pad would be tight. But it was just my husband and two little kids. Our cabin was narrow, but still had a semi-kitchen. Mini fridge, stove up, small bathroom, and a bunk bed + full bed in the bedroom then a futon pull out. My 6'4 husband had to sleep on the futon because he was too tall for the bedroom, but that was fine by me because the bed was actually really comfy. Overall, we spent almost no time in our cabin. Our in-laws had a butterfly cabin which is very similar layout to the lilypad, and my mother and father in laws cabin was the eagle, so it was bigger. They had a full fridge so we stocked a lot of food there and they were a bit more secluded. The cabins we were in are tucked in between mobile campers so we started with a lot of neighbors and then they left over the week and it was just cabins. Now, onto the amenities, they have a general store with a lot of what you might need if you forgot some food items and drinks, including alcohol. They had beach toys and stuff for kids. The staff was SUPER nice and really friendly. The play ground was nice, they have basketballs for the court, and we enjoyed the pool, it was really perfect for toddlers not sure about teenagers. On our favorites was the pony rides on Sunday, our kids really enjoyed that. It was a really unique place to stay for 3 nights and I enjoyed getting all my steps in going back and forth. There is a trail to walk close to the beach. If you don't mind the 30 mins daily drive to the beach its a good place to stay.

We absolutely loved our stay here at Eagle Canyon. We came as a big family and all had different…read morecabins and RV spots. We stayed in the Eagle Cabin which was very comfortable and perfect for what our family of 3 needed. The bed was comfortable and towels were very nice for a camping cabin. The only slight complaint/feedback I have was that the kitchen items could have been in better condition but it's a small cabin and understandable that they're kind of bare minimum. I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the entire area and overall respect of the property and other guests. The pool wasn't exactly first class but the kids LOVED it and had a blast. Very friendly service. The location was OK- a bit of a drive (10 Minutes to the nicer beach) but we would totally stay here again and highly recommend. (I also want to add that adjusting your expectations is helpful- I looked at some of these reviews and honestly, You are signing up for a camping area in Nebraska- not the Ritz. We have been to beautiful spots and airb&bs and we're pretty picky so this was exactly what we signed up for- a fun low key family camping adventure)

This is what happens when you let kids run your business. Visited Jackson lake last year and…read moreinquired about renting a wave runner. The wave runners were out of commission at that time but we inquired about the specifics anyway $500 cash deposit plus a credit card?! Um okay . (Oh and you can't use their ATM to get cash for the deposit, luckily I'm sure most families are walking around with 1000's of dollars in cash in their pocket when they go for a weekend on the lake.) This year we had wave runners lined up to bring to the lake but the deal fell through at the last minute when our tow vehicle had mechanical problems. I remembered that the marina rented them, so I had my wife give them a call while I was at work. She called me to explain that the person she spoke with was extremely rude on the phone and said we won't be renting from them. Apparently they aren't interested in having customers actually rent their "barely working" crap because he told my wife that it required a $700 cash deposit now- not $500 like the website says, and that they would not rent to persons without water craft experience. Ok, we've rented/ rode and driven wave runners a handful of times at other lakes which my wife communicated to them. He snapped back "well I don't know how many times you've visited other lakes, do I?" He then started running down a veritable quiz of water safety and regulations that he expected my wife to know. "What's the minimum depth you can take a wave runner?" I don't know, a reasonable depth? 2 feet? Isn't that information you can "run down" with the customer when we are signing the paperwork? If you have to pass a watermanship test to rent their stuff, they should put that on their website so people can go to the local community college, take their WAVERUNNER 101" course, get their certificate and have it framed and ready for the 19 year old kid with zero life experience at the dock. Needless to say, I wasn't too happy to hear that, and knew immediately that they were just trying to get my wife off the phone and save them from having to do something other than share instagram pics of them flexing their 12" biceps. When I called them back to inquire about the rentals, the guy was impatient and audibly irritated by my phone call. He sighed a heavy sigh when I asked them if any wave runners were available this weekend. He said "I'll have to check......".and sat there. I broke the extended silence and said...."okay go check". He said they were available but I needed $500 cash deposit (price goes down when a man calls apparently) and said that I needed prior experience. I said okay, I've driven them before. That was it. I apparently had the melodic voice of a seasoned waver runner rentalist because I didn't get the impromptu quiz. I then let him know that I was following up on a call he had with my wife. The call de escalated from there when I challenged his wavering approach to customers and lack of practical sense. He promptly hung up and that was the end. I guess that's why it's Friday afternoon and nobody has bothered to rent their equipment on either a Saturday or Sunday- in the middle of summer. Yeah, they're really tearing it up out there. Look elsewhere for equipment rentals, this place is a joke.

This was 5 minutes after we discussed pricing etc. She asked for a $500 damage deposit on a credit card. Went out to the car to retrieve CC, when I returned she flat out stated she changed her mind and there would be no boat rentals today. Very rude and disrespectful. I was under the impression Jackson Lake was a State Park and open and welcoming to children of all ages. Let the truth be told, it isn't. I will NEVER return to Jackson after my experience with Peggy and her staff.
