About This Access Site
Whiskey Gulch offers the primary boat launch access on Glendo Reservoir in Glendo State Park, located approximately 1 mile east of the main fee booth on Glendo Park Road. This facility features both high-water and low-water boat ramps with courtesy docks, making it accessible across varying water levels throughout the year. The ramp is well-equipped with amenities including drinking water and vault toilets, plus three camping pads for overnight stays.

Glendo Reservoir is a scenic destination nestled within view of the 10,272-foot Laramie Peak, offering a reliable body of water for kayaking, canoeing, and boating. The reservoir serves as an important habitat for migratory waterfowl and other wildlife. Before launching, check current water levels, as reservoir conditions can fluctuate seasonally. Be aware that during certain periods, Whiskey Gulch may be the only operational launch point on the reservoir, so plan accordingly if you're visiting during restricted access times.
