Tarryall Reservoir State Wildlife Area

Tarryall Reservoir State Wildlife Area offers a convenient boat ramp for launching kayaks, canoes, and motorized boats onto Tarryall Creek. The reservoir is popular for fishing and recreational boating, with two boat ramps located on the southern end of the water body.

The boat ramp is open seasonally, typically from late spring through early fall, with specific hours and days of operation. According to Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the ramp is open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursdays through Mondays, with closures on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Boaters should plan their visits accordingly and note that the ramp may be closed during inclement weather or ice conditions.

Nearby amenities include the Spruce Grove Campground, which is within 10 miles of the access site and offers reservable campsites. Paddlers and boaters should review all relevant regulations and requirements, such as the need for aquatic nuisance species (ANS) inspections, before launching on the reservoir.
