Be Our Guest at Rueter-Hess: 2026 Free Lone Tree Resident Reservoir Day
About this Event
Enjoy a FREE day at Rueter-Hess Reservoir for Lone Tree residents only. As members of the Rueter-Hess Recreation Advisory Board, Lone Tree is waiving the entrance fee for residents on Saturday, July 18, 2026. Registrants may enjoy paddle boarding (SUP), fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and trail hiking/biking. Looking for a relaxing day at the reservoir to appreciate nature with a picnic and a walk around the site? That’s fine, too!
This opportunity is limited to 230 vehicle signups and 100 fishing signups and is first come, first served.
Rentals + Watercraft
Paddle boards and other watercraft are available to rent for a fee using this link. You may also bring your own paddle board or other personal nonmotorized watercraft. If you bring your own paddle boards or other watercraft they will need to be inspected at the gate.
