The charming and historic Town of
Dillon Colorado in Summit County was incorporated on January 26, 1883. Dillon
real estate was
originally located at the site of a trading post and stage stop in Summit
County. The Town of Dillon Colorado moved its real estate physical location three times in it's
history. The first time was to be closer to the railroad, a second time was to
be located between the three area rivers - the Blue, the Ten Mile, and the
Snake rivers. The third move was necessary when in 1956 when the Denver Water
Board told the town's people that they must sell their Dillon real estate and
be out of the town by 1961 to make way for a new water reservoir. This new
Lake (shown below) would serve the Denver Colorado area resident's
water needs and not the town itself. The final location for the town was selected on the shore of the new reservoir where the town continues
to thrive today as a major Summit county community.

The Town of
Dillon Colorado
offers wonderful real estate opportunities and is
a full service community with a year-round resident population of
approximately 750. The town's spectacular location in the heart of Summit County
provides a majestic scenic backdrop for an abundance of year round
outdoor mountain activities. Its close proximity to the famous Summit County
ski areas makes it a convenient spot for winter vacationers as well as summer
adventurers. The many condominiums and motel rooms bring the peak population
to about 4,000 people. Dillon Colorado real estate offers a wonderful vacation
home investment opportunity that will pay dividends for many generations.
The town
is centrally located in Summit County which gives the visitor easy
access to all of the Summit County Ski Resorts. The FREE

Stage bus service will take visitors to Keystone, Arapahoe Basin,
Breckenridge and Copper Mountain ski areas. This town is especially popular in the Summer
with access to many outdoor mountain activities such as biking, hiking,
