Hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders enjoy exploring several miles of trails that meander along the shoreline.

The lake hosts 108 boat-in campsites. Some sites lie close to the lake's ski zones while others are in more secluded regions perfect for fishing or swimming.

If boaters wish to tie up to the shore, they must be at one of the designated campgrounds.
