South Lake is a tremendous site to visit for more than one day, Monument Lake  
   Resort is a tremendous site to camp nearby.
This lake is so wonderful. You'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Eldora since you're here; you can stay the night at Potato Patch Campground. South Lake is located in the Sangre De Cristo Mountains. The scenery at Russell Dam near South Lake is delightful, and don't leave South Lake without first going for a hike along the Apishapa Trail.

Monument Lake Resort
Monument Lake Resort is now under new management and has a new website: monumentlakeresort.com. Thank? you....This is a quaint little resort lake; fishing was pretty good, ours was a day trip; camping appeared to be fairly haphazard and crowded. There were very interesting ruins of stone masonary which led one to believe that the place had a history but in our visit we were unable to find information on the history of the place. ...
