Vega State Park is a beautiful, high-mountain lake that sits in a glorious meadow on the northeast edge of Grand Mesa National Forest. Warm weather visitors are embraced by unexpected beauty, mild temperatures and blue Colorado skies characteristic of the park's 8,000 feet altitude.

Along with several beautiful campgrounds in the park, the lake offers great boating, water-skiing and fishing. Excellent ice fishing and snowmobiling have made Vega State Park popular with both winter and summer crowds. Visitors may access trails atop Grand Mesa for hiking, trail biking and four-wheeling in the summer, and cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in the winter.

10 sites are walk-in.

Horses are welcome, you must bring outfield hay, water buckets, ect. The cost to rent the horse corrals is $10 per animal, per night, plus a one-time $10 reservation fee. Call ahead to reserve the corrals.

Please call the number below directly for updated information before you make your online reservation. Please note that a daily fee or annual parks pass is required for entry into the park.
