Lake Sports

You can swim, sail, water-ski, jet-ski, canoe, or kayak; we all share in our love of our beautiful mountain lakes! Several regattas are held during the summer and there are excellent facilities for launching and docking your boat. Payette Lake, Cascade Lake and Warm Lake, three of the most scenic lakes in Idaho, are just a short drive apart and provide endless options for lake fun.

Lake cruises are also available and provide a perfect way to spend an evening – cruise the lakes in luxury as you watch the sun set and enjoy refreshments!

In addition to the larger motorized lakes, Valley County is home to over 300 alpine lakes. Most are accessibly only by foot or mountain bike and are stocked with prize trout.
