Payson Lakes

Payson Lakes are very popular summer destinations for swimming, canoeing, fishing and camping. There is a campground right on one of the lakes, and only a couple miles away is the Blackhawk Campground. Access is usually closed until around Memorial Day every year due to the snowpack that usually doesn't melt until then. Payson Lakes include many facilities, including improved campgrounds, which cost around $11 per night, and allow certain sites to be reserved in advance, and others are "first come first serve". There is also a beach area on the lake where kids can swim and play in shallow water with a sandy bottom. There is a pier where wheelchair access is available to fish from. However, at times, kids like to use the peer as a diving board to jump into the water and swim. (For the time and dates of this event see the FAQ Portion of the website).
