The closest and most well known stretch of river is the "Dream Stream" a Gold Medal section of the South Platte below Spinney dam which flows into Eleven Mile Reservoir. Only eight minutes by car this 5.5 mile stretch of river is easily waded and an excellent dry fly fishing river. The Dream Stream is walk-in wading only water (no boats or rafts). Record Rainbows, Browns and Cut-Bows are found in this remarkable fishery. When staying at the Adobe you have the advantage over other anglers, who may drive two hours or more to fish the Dream Stream, by fishing the evening rise or the early morning hatches you may have the river to yourself. And during the slower parts of the day you can retreat to the Adobe, read, tie flies, play pool, ping pong, watch movies in the home heater or explore the many other Colorado recreational activities just out your door.
