The Beach and the Boats
Silver Lake is 1.5-miles long and .75-miles wide and has a shoreline noted for sheer granite walls, small coves and interesting islands. Whether you enjoy this scenic lake from our sandy swimming beach or from a canoe, kayak, rowboat or small motor boat, the lake is a must on everyone's agenda. Bring your swimsuit, a great book, sunglasses and plenty of sunscreen.
Kit Carson Lodge offers boat rentals. Motor boats, canoes and kayaks may be rented at the lodge office between 8:30 am and dusk. Pack a lunch and paddle or motor over to Treasure Island to enjoy the stillness and natural beauty of the largest island at the southern side of the lake. Or perhaps enjoy nature's landscape by boating around the 5 miles of scenic lakeshore. Silver Lake is stocked routinely to provide a hopeful "fisherperson" opportunity to catch rainbow and native German Brown trout.
You might want to try our kayaks. These are shorter and wider than traditional kayaks, making them much more stable. Experience the grace and speed of a kayak as you tour our lake's edge. You sit low in the kayak and feel much closer to the water. These boats are very agile and fast.
