"Lake Isabella" Loveland Sports & Outdoors Tip by Stephen-KarenConn

This beautiful 28 acre lake, set in a 77 acre park, is operated by the Hamilton County Parks Department. The lake is stocked weekly with 500 pounds of fish, including bass, bluegill, carp, trout and catfish. There is a modern boat house, a snack bar, a shop for fishing equipment, and boat rentals are available.

Entrance to the park is $2.00 daily per vehicle, or only $5.00 will get you an annual pass, which is good at all 15 developed parks and 4 conservation areas operated by Hamilton County. You won't find a better bargain than that. However, it you are going to fish at Lake Isabella, that will cost you $8.50 per day. Children under 12, and seniors (Golden Buckeye cardholders) fish free.

Catches of up to 20 pounds of fish are not unusual, and a single 27-pound catfish was recently caught here.
