About James M. Robb – Colorado River State Park

This Colorado Parks and Wildlife property stretches along the Colorado River in five separate sections, from Fruita on the west to Island Acres on the east, with three other stops between them. Visitors can use the linked trail system, fish, picnic and watch wildlife such as birds and mule deer. The Corn Lake section serves as the main office and visitor center. Camping is available in some sections, and the river has zebra mussel infestation status that visitors should note when cleaning gear. The park was renamed in 2005 to honor James M. Robb, a civic leader and state parks champion.
