Gunnison Reservoir is located northeast of the town of Gunnison and access from public land is available on the west side. The new Gunnison Reservoir Day Use Area offers improved gravel boat access to the reservoir, picnic tables, fire rings, and beautiful views. There are also multiple roads and routes to and around the reservoir. Please stay on designated roads and routes and respect other users when you visit.
Getting there
Approaching from the south, from Gunnison, travel East toward Manti. After passing Satterwhite Log Homes and a private residence, take a left onto a dirt road road. Stay right at the fork and continue onto Gunnison Reservoir road. Remain on the dirt road to the reservoir and continue up the west side to the day use area.
1991–2020 averages from the nearest NOAA station, 4.3 mi away — not measured at the facility itself, and elevation can make a real difference over that distance.
