RV rental Boyd Lake State Park, CO: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

For most visitors to Boyd Lake State Park, the main attraction is obviously the lake itself. With 1,700 acres of surface area to explore, this big and beautiful body of water provides opportunities galore for boating enthusiasts. Whatever type of boat you've got, you're welcome on Boyd Lake. Water skiing (in the southern half of the lake only) and jet skiing are popular in calm conditions, while sailboats take to the water when the breeze picks up. If you'd prefer to get around under your own steam, you can paddle the lake with a canoe, kayak, or stand-up paddleboard. A handful of local companies also offer Boyd Lake stand-up paddleboard rentals if you don't have your own craft, so there's no excuse not to take to the water. Fishing is another popular pastime in the park all year round, both from the shore and from boats. The lake is a haven for largemouth and smallmouth bass, white bass, bluegill, carp, crappie, and several other species, so don't forget your fishing rods when you're loading up your rental RV. For those campers who prefer to be in rather than on the water, Boyd Lake State Park also features its own sandy beach. It's a welcome sight in the middle of a hot Colorado summer, and a designated swimming area is set aside to ensure the safety of everyone who takes a dip. Showers, restrooms, a playground, and a snack bar are all nearby, while those who want to swim straight from a boat can do so in the lake's three designated no-wake areas. Of course, if you ever tire of all these watersports, you can always get stuck into some land-based fun. Highlights include two sand volleyball courts, hiking the park's half-mile nature trail, and riding a bike along the paved trail that runs alongside the water's edge.
