Brainard Lake Fishing Site Access provides a boat launch area adjacent to the south side of the bridge/dam for non-motorized boating access to Brainard Lake.

Located at 10,500 feet elevation in Boulder County, the site features restrooms and requires a timed-entry parking reservation (available on recreation. gov) to visit during the summer season (mid-June through mid-October).

Dogs must be on a hand-held leash, and fishing is permitted in accordance with Colorado Parks & Wildlife regulations.
