This town has galore activities in the summer thanks in part to its pristine reservoir, Lake Dillon. The reservoir is perfect for boating, sailing, walking and picnicking with 26 miles of shoreline surrounded by a breathtaking mountainous backdrop. There are several boat launch ramps and two marinas where you can rent rigs, and even a sailing school and charter cruises are offered by the Dillon Marina. Fishing is great too, especially as the ice thaws, with stocked salmon, cutthroat and brook trout. A nice way to spend a summer night is with a free lakeside concert at the Dillon Amphitheater, hosted from mid-June through early September on Friday and Saturday nights.
