At an elevation of 7,500 ft., the resort is just a “stone’s throw” from the waters of Blue Mesa Reservoir. This 26-mile long reservoir, with its 96 miles of shoreline, is Colorado’s largest and longest lake. Its setting — an eroded volcanic landscape — gives it a distinctly unique quality. For fishing enthusiasts, Blue Mesa Reservoir is one of Colorado’s most well-stocked fishing lakes with two marinas.
