Dillon is a small Colorado town that’s big on scenery, from the towering peaks of the Gore and Tenmile Mountain Ranges to the pristine water of the reservoir with the same name. With a population of under 1,000, tourists and locals will find Dillon as an endearing town in which to experience the raw beauty of Colorado.
The area’s biggest calling card is the unparalleled beauty around it. Skiing, snowboarding, hiking, and more bring in visitors and keep locals entertained. There’s a number of popular restaurants near Marina Park on the west side of the bay. Pug Ryan’s Tiki Bar, Arapahoe Café, and White Boots are just a few of the popular spots to fuel up before a day on the slopes.
Most of the rentals in Dillon follow a similar aesthetic. Dark wood exteriors and green accents mimic the look of log cabins and compliment the landscape, and almost every apartment is afforded an amazing view no matter where it is. US-6 connects to I-70 to the west, making a trek over the mountains into Denver possible in just over an hour.
