Pelican Bay Is Denver’s Favorite Place To Explore, Play And Relax In The Natural Setting Of Cherry Creek State Park.
Destination
Pelican Bay is located within Cherry Creek State Park, minutes from downtown Denver, in Greenwood Village. The park, which features 4,200 acres of water, land, and trails, is easily accessible from I-225 and I-25.
Visitors can access the park with a daily fee or an annual pass for their vehicles. For those who prefer to avoid the vehicle fee, there is some parking available near the west entrance on East Union Ave, allowing you to walk in and enjoy the park.
CHERRY CREEK STATE PARK
Cherry Creek State Park features prairie lands, rolling hills, wetlands, spectacular sunsets, and miles of trails circling the reservoir. Along the water’s edge, you will find a fishing pier, walking paths, picnic spaces, and more. The Rocky Mountains are spectacularly set to the west, and it is not uncommon to spot pelicans in the bay or eagles circling the treetops. Come see for yourself why Cherry Creek State Park is Denver’s natural backyard treasure.
CHERRY CREEK RESERVOIR
Welcome to Denver’s hottest water spot! When the weather is warm, you can enjoy boating, jet skiing, paddle boarding, and fishing. From your boat or the shore, you can catch largemouth bass, rainbow trout, and bluegill. During the winter months, weather permitting, the park allows camping, ice fishing, ice skating, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding. Be sure to have a valid fishing license and always stay at least 60 feet away from the large tower structure in the water.
I met with Erik Dyce, the CEO of Vencore Marine Group, and we agreed to partner up. I am excited about this new adventure/venture and to see my photography being displayed (and sold) in such a beautiful venue.
