Reviews and Info

Dillon Water Taxi and Lake Tours was founded on the premise to provide an affordable water transportation service between the marinas of Dillon and Frisco Bay as well as sight seeing tours of the entire lake.

Its foundation includes an educational briefing opportunity for all passengers, mostly tourists about Summit County and the surrounding communities. We also offer a unique opportunity for local residents to private charter a sizable boat to accommodate their function needs.

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.
