Take exit 49 (if coming from Grand Junction) off I-70 to HWY 65, go approximately 18 miles on Hwy 65 and turn left onto HWY 330. Go 12 miles to the town of Collbran. Stay on 330 East past Collbran for about 12 miles to Mesa County Rd. 64 6/10ths Rd. and turn right at the “Vega State Park” sign. Go 5 miles to the Park Entrance Station, and go another half mile and turn right across Vega Dam to the Park Visitor Center. The campground is on the southwestern edge of Vega Resevoir.
Nice mountain park and lake. Good for fishing, kayaking, picnics, paddleboards, and camping. A bit out of the way but a nice drive and pretty scenery.
Beautiful vista and we love all the hummingbirds. The eagle was in his nest. Our dogs enjoyed it as well!
Very clean restroom and shower in early settlers rv park . Nice hiking trails and dog friendly leash required. The visitor center has lots of information and a gift shop. Make reservations early if traveling on weekends, it fills up fast.
Amazing lake to fish for trout! Crystal clear water, and amazing views as you fish. They have a nice boat ramp, dock, and parking area as well. Highly recommend fishing, or boating here!
