How lucky we are to have such a beautiful place near home. There are good views from many spots around the lake, but be sure to go to Sapphire Point. More

Love this place. We visit regularly and always something to see and do around Lake Dillon. It is fun to rent a boat at the Dillon Marina. It is fun to check out the lake from Old Lake Dillon Reservoir. Take your kids they love it! More
