Pearl Lake State Park
This 166-acre lake is routinely recognized as one of the best canoeing spots in the US of A.
Boating on Pearl Lake is by human power only. No motors, just paddlers, plenty of fish, and campers nestled in the mountains. There are tranquil campsites with fire rings next to the water. Cooing owls or distant coyotes will sing you to sleep.
If this is your idea of the perfect getaway, head to Steamboat Springs and go north. It's about 23 miles to Pearl Lake from there. Summertime means plenty of native cutthroat trout to try and (sometimes) outwit.
BYOC (bring your own canoe) for a leisurely jaunt on the water. A hiking trail takes you along the shore and then into the adjacent national forest. That's where you can get friendly with the firs or personable with the pines.
Fall means fantastic foliage. In winter the roads close. That's okay. You can still snowshoes, cross country ski, or snowmobile.

Pearl Lake is a legendary canoeing destination. Really. It was recently voted one of the top 25 places to canoe in America. Paddle out, toss some flies, and pull some native cutthroat trout from the water. If all the water activities appeal to you, Lower Loop Campground is the place to be. These are the closest campsites to the water and offer a n Read more...
If views of Pearl Lake sound more exciting than canoeing into the middle of it, the Upper Loop is just the place for you. Situated slightly further from the water and higher up, this campground is ideal for those who want to soak in the views of this idyllic remote lake while accessing the massive amounts of hiking in the neighboring national fore Read more...
Let's face it: setting up tents is a lot of work. All those weird flexible bars and flapping fabric waste valuable time that could be spent drinking a brew in the sunshine and paddling around doing your best Davy Crocket. Book a yurt and let someone else do the work for you while you drop off your bags and hit the water or the trails right away. I Read more...
