With between 300 and 600" of snow annually, Steamboat Lake offers a wide variety of recreation opportunities in a winter-wonderland valley surrounded by pristine mountains.
We have 1,100 surface-acres of ice for fishing, a marked snowshoe loop, over 4 miles of groomed non-motorized ski trail, and access to 145 miles of groomed snowmobile trail. We also have electrical hookups available in the Marina parking lot ($20/night), and 10 camper cabins, (information available here).
You may view our Winter Recreation brochure by clicking here. Ski trails are usually groomed Saturday mornings and soon after significant snowfall. Our most current grooming report for area snowmobile trails is available here.
