Why Purchase Frisco Real Estate
Frisco Colorado is nestled in the Rocky Mountains and is in the heart of
Summit County. World class downhill skiing/boarding at Breckenridge,
Copper Mountain, Keystone, and Arapahoe Basin are only 10-20 minutes
away, and Vail, Beaver Creek and Loveland are within 30 minutes. The
town has an excellent cross country ski area where sleigh rides are
offered at night and a marina for summer boating. It is approximately
75 miles from Denver on I-70 at Exits 203 and 201. It has been an
active town for over 130 years.
Frisco’s history began with the Ute Indians who first followed buffalo
herds through today's Summit County and up onto Vail Pass. Trappers
then followed, to trap beaver that were plentiful in the streams and
rivers, from 1810 to around the 1840’s. Then, from the 1870's to until
1918, there was a mining boom in and around Frisco (the old mine remains
are still visible on the hillsides). By 1882 the permanent population
reached 250 with two railroads, many businesses, hotels and saloons
(which was a big town for the times). Even during the Depression, when
the population dropped to only 18 residents, Frisco kept going as a
mining town and persevered. With the current recreational visitor boom,
Frisco now boasts a current population of just under 2,800 full-time
residents and is a vibrant small town with an active and picturesque Main
Street. The creation of the Dillon Reservoir in the 1950's gave this
mountain town a "lakefront" view and a place to build its marina.
The White River National Forest and Lake Dillon surround Frisco providing
many opportunities for outdoor recreation: hiking, biking, boating,
camping, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and more. Ten Mile Creek
provides fishing and kayaking. Nearby you can play golf at the Raven
Golf Club at Three Peaks, Breckenridge Golf Course, the Copper Mountain
Course, and Keystone’s two courses. There are also many scheduled summer
and winter town events, from concerts and parades to BBQ challenges.
