Recreation Guide

Another world exists here at Sweetwater Lake on the edge of the Flat Tops Wilderness, 7,700 feet up, in the grandeur of the White River National Forest. Here, an unforgettable panorama of nature unfolds before you. Rent a cabin, motel, or campsite and spend a night closer to the stars. Take a trip on horseback, hike into the wilderness, or rent a canoe and paddle around the lake. Throw a line in to tempt rainbow trout from the dock or a rowboat, and watch an osprey fish with you. Enjoy a meal on the deck of the western style restaurant with five varieties of hummingbirds dining alongside.
