My wife likes being outdoors but doesn't like camping. We went to Red Canyon Lodge by Flaming Gorge last August and had a blast. It's 10 minutes to the Green, and although not as pampering as you're looking for, the cabins are clean, the restaurant food is great, and right from the dock while my kids were running around jumping in and out of the paddle boats I caught a ton of nice fish. It was a good compromise all around and we all had a blast--so much so that we're going back the week of the 18th. It might be hard to get a reservation but it's close and a lot of fun. You can easily go knee deep into the water and fish the bank with hoppers--there are some big fish in the lake, and of course you can walk/fish the green.
