Gunnison River Pleasure Park

Pleasure Park serves as the gateway to gold medal trout fishing on the Gunnison River, situated at the confluence of the North Fork and the main stem in Hotchkiss. The facility holds the exclusive motorized jet boat permit on the river, allowing guests to access the wilderness area of the Gunnison Gorge and view the oldest petroglyphs in Colorado at Eagle Rock Shelter. Two miles of private fishing waters extend downstream from the park, offering secluded angling opportunities distinct from public stretches. Beyond fishing, the property provides jetboat trips, guided float trips, and shuttle services to remote take-out points like Drysdale Flatts. Accommodations include riverside cabins and camping sites, while on-site amenities feature a fly shop, a convenience store with snacks and beverages, and a large deck suitable for wedding receptions and group events.
