So much exciting stuff to do at Wellington Lake, so little time. A charming lake like Baehr Reservoir in the neighborhood of Wellington Lake is a great site to go to, and if you came to camp Tramway Campground is a glorious spot to do that. You'll in fact wish for more hours in a day to enjoy all the amusing stuff in the Front Range. Visit Freeman Creek since you're here at Wellington Lake, and you can have a splendid hiking adventure along the Lake Park

| | Trail. If you go for the outdoors you'll go for it here in the Front Range. Take a hike on the Rolling Creek Trail, and South Platte River has a great whitewater paddling spot close by. This lake is so wonderful. If you're hooked on cool geologic features, try The Castle, and a fine close by hotel is Quality Suites at Evergreen Parkway. If you don't mind getting covered with water, you can always go whitewater paddling on South Platte River - North Fork; why | |

Cheesman Lake
 | 1 PHOTO I was disappointed when I realized that canoes are not allowed. But it is very beautiful and a nice place for a simple hike.... Bring your fishing net!!!! I caught a two pound smallmouth off powerbait and reeled it in on 6lb test all the way to the bank and the line snapped as I pulled it up and out of the water because I had no net.... went in July 2007, no bites. Beautiful lake though.... |
