Life in Summit County


As a 30 year resident of Summit county, I have found this community to be a community of like-minded people who enjoy a "mountain mindset". That "translates" into enjoying the great outdoors as well as a commitment and willingness to step up when "neighbors" or community members are in need, to be grateful daily of what mother nature has “brung” or what her gifts are. The foundation of a mountain community is held up by its people… whether full-time resident(s), part-time, or visitors who catch a breath of fresh Mountain air and enjoy all that mountain lifestyle can offer!

When looking at a community in terms of Real Estate one always asks:


"Is this a good place to live or to invest? How do I compare?" There are many ways to do that, but mostly there is always a "logical side" and an "emotional one" involved in most decisions in life, housing and the place to “call home”, or even part time home is no different.

Looking at Summit County as "place to live" or visit, it covers both ends of the spectrum, equally positive, meaning Summit provides plenty of "logical reasons", as it does "emotional" ones - really a rare balance.

Summit's proximity to the Denver area and International Airport, plus ALL the conveniences of a Big City: Specialty Stores, Big Box Stores, Boutique Shops, a variety of Health Food Stores, Hospital, Emergency Room, Flight for Life and Denver International airport, (about 90 minutes) connecting you to any place on the planet. Summit is "Not out there" where you have to pack a lunch and toothbrush to shop at Costco.

On the "emotional side" you can literally "see" the overwhelming beauty when you arrive up here on the other side of the Continental Divide looking down towards Lake Dillon, and Gore and Ten Mile Mountain Range..“All of this little paradise” lays at your feet. Your Outdoor spirit is immediately engaged, and you can chose just about any activity you would want in this outdoor paradise which is surrounded by majestic Mountains, has clean air and offers a variety of local accommodations.

A fun playground, outdoor living, and convenience to a big Metro area, can we attach a price to that? And: How much would it be worth to you?
