In Red Feather Lakes, Colorado, Ramona Lake is a large private lake that is owned by Red Feather Storage & Irrigation (RFSI). Ramona Lake is sometimes referred to as “Lake Ramona,” and is surrounded by the Roosevelt National Forest.
Today, most people enjoy views of Romona Lake during overnight stays at the Ramona Lake Cabins or throughout meals at the restaurant next door. Romona Lake is also located near the area’s trading post, post office, library, and historical society.
History of Ramona Lake
Once upon a time, the Red Feather Mountain Lakes Association was planning to build a clubhouse on the shores of Romona Lake. Although rapid development of the planned resort community slowed in the 1920s, private cabins have been available to rent on the lake since 1930.
