Dillon Home Loans & Mortgage Services
Life in Dillon, Colorado
Dillon is Summit County's lakeside gem — a compact mountain town perched on the shores of Dillon Reservoir at 9,111 feet above sea level. The reservoir itself is Colorado's highest deep-water sailing lake, surrounded by mountain peaks and offering sailing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing throughout summer. The Dillon Marina and Amphitheater host events, concerts, and a popular Friday farmers' market. The town's central location provides quick access to Keystone (10 minutes), Breckenridge (20 minutes), Copper Mountain (15 minutes), and A-Basin (20 minutes), making it a multi-resort basecamp. The paved Summit County recreation path connects Dillon to Frisco, Silverthorne, and beyond for biking and walking. In winter, the frozen reservoir becomes a vast playground for ice fishing and cross-country skiing. Dillon's small size creates a genuine community atmosphere where neighbors know each other and local businesses thrive.
