    Great time sledding down the hills.
    Rick G.

    This park area is a very fun place to take the kids to sled down the hill. The plastic sleds tend to make you spin and are a little harder to control but don't go too fast for younger kids. The air tubes are a lot faster and difficult to control but a blast to head down in. Seating areas with benches and also has a dog park so you can take your k-9 companion. Would definitely recommend for a fun afternoon with the kids or even just friends or significant other.

    Great activity for some free fun. Good for all ages! Just buy a sled or tube from Walmart or local a store. Sleds seem to go faster than tubes. The hill is not very eye steep and is short but it's still a fun way to spend an hour or two. They also have a pavilion and dog park.

    Great for sledding. Convenient parking in two different areas. There's also a dog park and a little pavilion.

    Mohawk Lakes Trail - Upper Mohawk Lake: you'll get to take stunning photos of it. Worth the 4.5 miles of hike!!

    What's iconic about this Centennial State is the fact that it has numerous and stunning alpine…read morelakes. That's why we Coloradans feel lucky to have close access to these crystal clear lakes only a short drive away from our homes. Well, after living in the state for 28 years, I belatedly had a chance to climb up to see the beauty of Mohawk Lakes just several days ago. Due to the unprecedentedly low snowfall the past season (2025/2026), the lower Mohawk Lake's water level was quite low. This was by no means a disappointing view in any way; it still was emitting the beauty of a clear lake image that calmed us the hikers. We got tempted to sit right by the lakeside and start reading a great book although we didn't have one (lol). Two beautiful waterfalls treated us on the way to the top which we, of course, took advantage of by walking around them and snapping photos. Watching the rushing waters invigorated our spirits. Upper Mohawk Lake was the absolute treat to state the least. This lake deserves far better expression than "beautiful" or "stunning" as those words were quite ordinary for it. "Splendid" might be a bit better to use to describe its incredible depth of the character and the charm. Well, you will have to see it for yourself; mere words or even well-taken photos don't justify how gorgeous it is. Late August was a bit too late for the colorful wild flowers and yet it wasn't completely devoid of them as we saw some dark pink and white on the way. The trail gets a bit confusing during the 4.5 miles walk. You might feel a bit lost due to the lack of signs (we did too) especially when we got closer to the lakes (so I would say the last 0.75 miles or a mile) but we kind of followed other hikers to stay on the road. Don't worry; you'll get there! The Canada Jays or Gray/Grey Jays, fluffy mostly white with some black, were quite friendly! They flew over to us where we almost got to pet them! When they come close to you, stick your index finger. They might come and lightly and playfully bite it but it won't hurt. They are absolutely adorable and made our hike so memorable.

    The lakes were beautiful and the falls were also very beautiful. The hike was challenging but…read moredoable and not too hard. Good shade in a lot of places but lots of mosquitoes as well you need bug spray for sure! Really crowded but less crowded than a fourteener.

The natural…read morebeauty of this body of water is breathtaking....from far, you can see the lake and the Rockies in the background...up close you can enjoy the crystal blue waters and some of the activities that are allowed on the lake. Dillon Reservoir, sometimes referred to as Lake Dillon, is located in Summit County, Colorado, south of I-70 and bordered by the towns of Frisco, Silverthorne, and Dillon. It is a reservoir for the city of Denver, and its waters are under the control of Denver Water. Popular ski areas are close to the reservoir, including Copper Mountain, Keystone, Arapahoe Basin, and Breckenridge. During the winter months, ice fishing and snowmobiling are common activities. For warmer months, the towns of Dillon and Frisco each have marinas on the reservoir. The Dillon Marina is open pretty much during the season and hundreds of sailboats can be seen docked or sailing. Due to Dillon Reservoir's proximity to the towns of Dillon, Silverthorne, and Frisco, the lake has many lodging, camping, and RV facilities. The reservoir has a popular 18 miles paved bike path that winds around the entire reservoir. The path can be accessed at any point around the reservoir. The views from any angle are worth the drive to this beautiful lake.

It can be a good deal if you also do classes such as yoga in addition to regular gym workouts. Also good deal if you use the pool. Some of the yoga classes are great and on par with local studios. However, some classes are also very slow and not very great exercise. It's hard to know what to expect as instructors change up often and class descriptions are vague .Very clean facilities. Lots of equipment and a good selection of kettle bells. It can get busy at peak times. Convenient hours especially on weekdays. Parking lot can get busy.

They have a water slide that they allow younger children to go with adults on and it's quite fast. There's a hot tub area, a lab pool area, as well as a climbing wall in the swimming area for older children. They also have a steam room and a sauna. Changing area looks like it was done relatively recently. It's quite nice. They have men's room, a women's locker room and a communal room which is perfect for families with small children. If Keystone or Breckenridge area I would definitely be checking that out again.
