Boyd Lake State Park is a water-sports haven for northern Colorado. The park attracts visitors who enjoy boating, water-skiing, swimming,
fishing, windsurfing, bicycling, walking, hunting and wildlife viewing. The park features camping and picnicking. The lake lies along the Front Range with impressive views of Long’s Peak. Boyd Lake covers nearly 1,700 surface-acres when full. The reservoir provides drinking water for the city of Greeley and irrigation water for Colorado farms.
ActivitiesBoating and SkiingBoyd Lake has two paved launch ramps. The main six-lane ramp is located by the Marina. A two-lane ramp is located further north at Heron Cove, where only non-motorized & personal watercraft can be launched. All trailered vessels must be inspected at the Aquatic Nuisance Species station located at the Marina prior to launch. The entire lake is open to boating and sailing. Only the south end of the lake is open to water-skiing. The ski pattern is counter-clockwise. Complete Colorado Boating Statutes and Regulations are available at the park.
SwimmingThe Boyd Lake Swim Beach offers a sandy beach for playing or sun-tanning, a playground and a buoyed swim area for cool relief during hot summer days. Glass, pets, charcoal grills, boats and fishing are prohibited at the swim beach.
Swimming from vessels is permitted from sunrise to sunset in the three designated no-wake areas as shown on the map (North No-wake Area and East No-wake areas 1 and 2). USE CAUTION – HAZARDS MAY EXIST!
Swimming/Wading over waist deep is prohibited in all other areas.
FishingBoyd Lake is a popular spot with shoreline and boat anglers for largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, white bass, catfish, crappie, perch, rainbow trout and walleye. Ice fishing is a favorite winter pastime. Underwater ridges and inlet areas can produce great fishing. A Colorado fishing license is required, and Colorado fishing regulations apply.
Walking and BicyclingWalking and biking can be enjoyed along the paved and grassy trails that meander along beaches, under cool cottonwood trees and the water’s edge.Trails join with the city of Loveland’s regional trail system at the south and north ends of the park. Some trails are plowed in the winter for year-round use.
Wildlife ViewingBoyd Lake affords great opportunities to observe a variety of wildlife, especially during spring and fall bird migrations.
Waterfowl HuntingWaterfowl hunting is allowed at Boyd Lake in the designated “Red Zones”. Open dates for red zones may be more restricted than regular waterfowl seasons. Contact park office or see website for additional information.
CampingBoyd Lake offers 148 paved, pull-through camp sites. The sites are located on a grassy knoll dotted with trees near the lake. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. All sites have 20, 30 and 50 amp electric pedestals. Three restrooms with pay showers, playground equipment and horseshoe pits are located in the campground. Campers must have both a camping permit and a park pass for their vehicle. Please camp only in designated sites and display the campground permit in the marker at each campsite. A holding tank dump station is provided for registered campers. It is illegal to dump wastewater, including dishwater, anywhere except the dump station. For camping reservations, call 1-800-244-5613 or visit www.cpw.state.co.us.
PicnickingBoyd Lake State Park features sixty seven first class picnic sites scattered throughout the park. These sites are available on a “first-come first-served” basis. The group picnic area (GPA) may be rented for groups of up to 200, and is available by reservation. The GPA pavilion sits atop a small ridge overlooking the lake and includes a private parking lot, tables, fire grills, electrical outlets, a fireplace and a prep sink. A volleyball court, horseshoe pits and playground are located next to the covered facility. Much of the surrounding area is lawn and a trail leads to the lake shore where boats can be beached during your picnic. You can get more information and the rental agreement at our web site or by calling (970) 669-1739.cpw.state.co.us
