Rob Roy is a 500 acre reservoir located west of Laramie in the Snowy Range (Medicine Bow National Forest) with a NFS camp ground, boat ramp, and Day Use Area. At 9,000 ft in elevation this reservoir is a popular fishing, water recreation, camping, hunting and ATV location during the summer. Stocked with brown, rainbow, and brooke trout as well as kokanee salmon you have some options for all. Don’t forget to hit up Douglas creek that flows in and out of Rob Roy for some excellent fly fishing opportunists.
