The Boulder Recreation Area is an excellent and quiet place outside Mesa, Arizona, perfect for picnicking, fishing, and connecting with nature. If picnicking is not your preference, a snack bar and a restaurant are available on-site for a bite.  You can rent a kayak or a paddleboat for an extra price to further enjoy the scenery.

The natural site has accessible paved paths, a step-free public bathroom with a toilet with grab bars, a dock accessed by a boardwalk, and picnic areas.
