Details
Evergreen Lake is so well used and so central to today’s Evergreen community that most park visitors are probably unaware they are in a Denver Mountain Park. But the Lake and Lakehouse (managed by Evergreen Park & Recreation District), with nearby golf course and clubhouse, are only part of this 420-acre park. North of Upper Bear Creek Road is a quieter, more typical mountain park with a stone picnic shelter, available by reservation, and forested hillsides with picnic spots for visitors. West of the golf course, the Park connects southward to Alderfer-3 Sisters Park via the Dedisse Trail across a second forested slope.

Today, the Lake and its adjacent wetlands attract birds—and birders, who document the appearance of birds through the season. Renovations turned the CCC Warming Hut into a new Evergreen Nature Center, operated by Evergreen Audubon Society.
