Douglas Lake is a small reservoir north of Fort Collins near Wellington – quiet, rather shallow with sandy shores, no trees, but a nice view of mountains, pelicans, herons, and other birds, carps. It is State Wilderness Area, so you need Colorado Division of Wildlife Habitat Stamp for paddling there.
