About Steamboat Lake Marina
Steamboat Lake Marina operates within Steamboat Lake State Park in Clark, Colorado, about 25 miles north of Steamboat Springs. Set against the backdrop of Hahn's Peak, the marina offers boat rentals on one of the most scenic mountain lakes in northwestern Colorado — a 1,053-acre reservoir with crystal-clear water and spectacular mountain views in every direction.
Their rental fleet includes pontoon boats for leisurely cruises, fishing boats rigged for lake trout and pike, Mastercraft ski boats for wakeboarding and water skiing, stand-up paddleboards, sit-on-top kayaks, and canoes. The marina also sells bait, tackle, and basic supplies for a full day on the water. Boat rentals are available by the hour or full day, with reservations recommended during peak summer weekends.
The lake's location at 8,000 feet elevation means cooler summer temperatures and fewer crowds compared to front-range reservoirs. The surrounding Routt National Forest provides a wilderness setting that feels worlds away from busy resort towns. It's the go-to spot for Steamboat visitors who want a quiet day on the water with genuine mountain solitude rather than an adrenaline-fueled adventure.
