   You'll need more than a day to look at everything Lilly Pond has to offer, you can camp at Mix Lake Campground, and lakes are such peaceful places, why not have a look at Mix Lake.
This is no location for people who don’t like to have a good time. Government Park is a tremendous location; dry warm beds await you at Allington Inn and Suites. Don't leave Lilly Pond without first going for a hike along the Dry Creek Stock Driveway. Much precipitation falls

This lake is so wonderful. A quick spree to Alum Creek in the vicinity of Lilly Pond is a nice idea, and a striking lake like Platoro Reservoir is a good spot to stop at. This lake is so wonderful. A splendid place for whitewater paddling in the vicinity of Lilly Pond is Conejos River, and going for a hike on the Lake Fork Trail is always a wonderful adventure. Yeah, come up here to the San Juan and Jemez Mountains for a glorious time. Go for a hike on the San Juan Stock Driveway; after a long day outdoors The Spruce Lodge is a fine place to spend a night or two.
Very brilliant water scenery is available at Platoro Dam near Lilly Pond, and while you're here, you might as well go to Sawmill Gulch. There's so much to do here at Lilly Pond that you need to camp here for a while, Stunner Campground is a good site for that, and Telluride Mountain is a peak you can distinguish from Lilly Pond.

Bear Lake Trail
Bear Lake was surely a disappointment! I'd heard it had good fishing, but after puffing up a long, steep, and confusing trail (we lost our way more than once, delaying our arrival about an hour) we found the lake nearly dry; muddy, and infested with mosquitoes! Next time I'll save myself the bother and fish the Conejos. ...

Opal Lake
17 miles away
I was raised near this lake and when a child we had to pack horses into this lake. It is not near any campgrounds, and it's over 25 miles to town, not 18. It gets way colder than 0 in the winter but the views are almost correct.  It IS beautiful!...

Trujillo Meadows Campground
19 miles away
In the 16 years that I have lived in the area, there has never been white water ( for rafting, canoeing, kayaking etc. I presume) in the Brazos. I think you are referring to the Chama River which starts in the Colorado San Juans and flows through New Mexico into the Rio Grande in Espanola ,NM. Plenty of white water there in the spring time....You seem to have missed letting people know about the great trout fishing at Trujillo Meadows. I have never been there that I haven't hooked a big one....

Spruce Hole Trail
19 miles away
While I have not had the pleasure of hiking any of its trails yet, I look forward to camping in this area. I ''scouted'' the dirt road into the Spruce Hole exit off of the main road. It is very lovely through this piece of wilderness. Lots of healthy pines, wildflowers, and plenty of wildlife too. Sorry I don't have any pictures, but if you're thinking about camping or hiking here... I highly suggest that you do!...
