Boulder Reservoir

Walleye, bluegill, crappie, yellow perch and rainbow trout dwell in this 540-acre reservoir east of town.

An activity laden water Mecca, the Boulder Reservoir is a popular destination for residents during the lazy days of summer. Swimming, sailboarding and fishing are the main activities. For those new to water, instructors offer lessons in water-skiing and boating. Pack a picnic lunch or grab a bite from the snack bar. The white sandy beach is popular with locals for tanning purposes. Leave the dog at home for pets are not allowed on the beach. There is an entrance admission of $4, but free for those fishing or boating.
