Returning for 2024!
We are EXCITED to be back at Boyd State Lake Park in 2024, thanks to a partnership with Girl Scouts of Colorado and Colorado Parks and Wildlife.
Yes it's in Loveland, but it's the northeast side. Here's some maps showing various routes to Boyd Lake. See the route examples on the left.
Whether coming from northwest, southwest or southeast Fort Collins, Boyd Lake is about 15-20 minute drive.
From Wellington it's 20-25 minutes.
Traffic/Access.
Thanks to the upgrades to Boyd Lake Road over the last few years, we expect similar traffic flow in and out of the property. We'll be monitoring normal business day traffic in May to help us learn the best flow.
After entering the park, it's 1.5 miles to the day camp area. Park activity Monday-Friday during our drop-off/pick-up times is low, so we'll probably be the only ones driving around. Our pavilion area has a circular parking lot which is perfect for drop off and looping right back out.
State Park Pass NOT Required.
Although this is a Colorado State Park, attendees to day camp are NOT required to purchase a daily or annual pass to access day camp. Attendees will receive a special pass for their vehicle dashboard for quick entry each morning. Note, vehicles will be required to have State Park passes if they are at Boyd Lake after day camp hours.
Have several routes in mind.
We suggest picking various routes to/from day camp and testing them before camp - and being ready to adjust during camp, just in case there is a traffic situation on your normal route.
