Dillon began as a trading post and stage stop but was able to grow with the tourism industry until the ski boom which now brings about 3 million people to the area per year. Frisco is located west of Denver off Interstate 70 just miles on Highway 6 past the Eisenhower tunnel. Conveniently situated near the resort towns of Keystone, Breckenridge, Frisco, Vail, Beaver Creek, and Copper Mountain and the ski and recreation areas of Arapahoe Basin, Loveland, and Ski Cooper, there are endless opportunities for sight seeing and outdoor activity. The town has been moved three times to be closer to the railroad, then to be closer to the Blue, Ten Mile, and Snake rivers, and lastly so that Denver could create the reservoir known as Lake Dillon. |
The recreational areas in the area are endless given the town’s proximity to the Ten Mile Range, and numerous lakes and rivers and the Town of Dillon provides endless events throughout the year to entertain visitors and residents alike. The Dillon Ridge Market Place and the Dillon Factory Stores are a mix of local and national chain businesses offering delicious restaurants, an eclectic combination of stores and shops, and entertainment. Summer in Dillon is always exciting with boating on Lake Dillon, Friday Farmers Markets featuring fresh fruits and vegetables and arts and crafts, and weekend concerts at the Lake Dillon Amphitheatre. The incredible views, fresh air, and parks are a perfect environment for taking scenic walks, rollerblading, or bike rides along the paved recreation path that circles the lake. No matter what your idea of adventure and fun, you can find your perfect vacation destination in Dillon, Colorado! |
