Fremont Lake is the second natural lake in Wyoming, located just 6 miles from our hotel. The lake is eleven miles long, half a mile wide and over 600 feet deep at its deepest point. The lake was scooped out by an ancient glacier and is dammed at the lower end by a terminal moraine. It was named after John C. Fremont, who surveyed the area in 1842 while mapping the Oregon trail.

Shoreline is mostly undeveloped with abundant of wildlife- you can see bald eagles, osprey, mule deer, pronghorn, elk and moose. Both grizzly bears and black bears inhabit the mountains around the lake. Fremont lake contains populations of lake, rainbow and brown trout and some kokanee salmon.





The Fremont Lake Sailing Regatta is held each August to the delight of avid sailors and spectators. Watercraft of all kinds are allowed on Fremont Lake, with boats up to 35 feet launching from the Lower Boat Dock when water depths are normal. You can rent kayaks, canoes and windsurf at the Marina.



Families also enjoy Sandy Beach, a small natural beach, where the water is relatively shallow,  just off the main access road. A picnic area is adjacent and helps keep the beach area clean.
