About
Surround yourself with deep blue waters and green mountains of Jackson Gulch Reservoir in southwest Colorado. Kayakers, canoeists, and wakeless power boaters make this a quiet, gentle lake. Plus, a lack of boat noise makes it easier to catch yellow perch and rainbow trout. Nothing tastes better than cooking fresh fish, that you caught, on a campfire.
In winter, try snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and ice fishing. That means campgrounds stay open year-round for when nature calls you away from a busy life. Although most people stay in tents or RVs, two yurts provide an alternative camping experience.
Yurts have electricity and some modern amenities. The two on-site yurts sleep six people each. Think of them as a tent-like cabin or a cabin-like tent. Campers have another reason to choose Mancos as a home base. The area
