               Lakes you hit upon the Loop Trail which is a splendid hiking trail It's always great to take a look at Venable Falls.
This place, the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, has so much outdoors amusing stuff. Stay the night at North Crestone Campground, and a round of golf at nearby Challenger Golf Club is a great way to kill some time. The Venable-Comanche Trail is a tremendous hiking trail in close proximity to Goodwin Lakes, and do check out Hermit Lake, it's a charming lake. What would a site like Goodwin Lakes be without interesting nearby characteristics like Phantom Terrace, and nearby you find wonderful places like Venable Pass.
This lake is so wonderful. There's so much to do here at Goodwin Lakes that you need to camp here for a while, Lake Creek Campground is a pleasant site for that.

MORE STUFF NEARBY:

South Crestone Lake
Trail is awful, disappearing and reappearing every now and again. Thorn bushes and trash cover what little trail is easy to navigate. Trail disappears completely before you actually reach the lake. Also it appears that an axe murderer has taken up residence in the upperwoods. Be careful and travel in large groups if you plan to try and make it to the lake. It is easy to get lost so mark your trail well....
