This lake is so wonderful. While staying at McDonald Reservoir you could always explore Echo Canyon, and there are brilliant locations to discover along the Black Hills Trail. This lake is so wonderful. Lakes? Sure, Hayes Reservoir is around here, and after a long day outdoors Best Western Rambler is a glorious place to spend a night or two. So much amusing stuff to do here in the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, too pleasant to be true. There's wonderful hiking along the West Peak Trail; Knights Inn Walsenburg is a great site to get some rest.
McDonald Reservoir is pretty waterless generally; the month of August is the wettest with most of the rain, and January is the month with the least moisture. Looking for some flowing water? Try Echo Creek, and you can stay the night at Bearadise Cabins and RV Park.
