Boulder Reservoir: Boulder, Colorado

Location
Boulder Reservoir is located just north of Boulder. Head Northeast on the Diagonal Highway then west on Jay Road, your first right on 51st. will take you to the entrance. Boulder Reservoir is open year round. When there are not any lifeguards on duty, the in gate will be closed, but the out gate will be open. People can drive in the out gate in the off season. The city of Boulder charges a fee at the gate. Please see our map.


Description: Boulder Reservoir is a wonderful place to paddle. The water is clean, there are sand beaches all along the South shore. There are playgrounds, floating platforms to relax on, and lots of sun. There are motor boats that use this reservoir. Sailboats may be rented. The City of Boulder rents out areas of the Reservoir to private parties, so you may not always have run of the entire area. There is a food consession above the swimming area that is open for the summer. Early and late season, there are times when the entire reservoir is rented to an event. KBCO Kinetics is one of those events. At these times gate fees may be much higher. There may be some great bands playing out there too.
