Dedisse Park Below Evergreen lake

Beautiful places in EvergreenEvergreen is loaded with places to find serenity and beautiful mountain scenery and Dedisse Park is Evergreen’s Iconic park. Perhaps the crown jewel of the Denver Mountain Park system– although the Lake House, skating and hockey on Evergreen Lake are managed through the Evergreen Parks and Rec. District.  The park is Denver Mountain Park’s only high alpine lake park having been acquired in 1919 by the heirs of the original homesteaders; Julius and Mary Ann Dedisse.

The 35 feet tall Evergreen Lake Dam was built  in 1926 and creates the 65 acre, photogenic Evergreen Lake.  Although the lake is one of Evergreen’s biggest attractions for boaters, fisherman, ice Hockey on Evergreen Lake and ice skaters, originally the lake was created to mitigate the common and disastrous floods each spring from Upper Bear Creek.  The 420 acre Dedisse Park includes not only Evergreen Lake and Evergreen golf course, Colorado’s first mountain golf course, but also a stretch of Upper Bear Creek with a stone picnic shelter and canyon picnic areas.

If you have a chance to take a break from looking for Evergreen real estate, take a stroll around the lake on the well manicured walking trail or try your hand at catching the plentiful rainbow trout or even the elusive musky!  This is a beautiful place to relax and take in the splendor of Evergreen!
