Frisco

By Jeff Angell

Frisco, Close to everything... It seems Frisco Colorado has a history of being the center of it all. As in the late 1800's Frisco Co was reported to have 20 Saloons and 19 dancehalls with an estimated population of 2,500! Today the Frisco Real Estate has grown while the population is about the same yet it has much more amenities such as Frisco homes and mountain real estate as well as a few of those Saloons.

Frisco is still the geographic heart of Summit County, CO. On the shores of Lake Dillon and backed by the majestic Ten Mile Range that begins where the Frisco Real Estate ends, this old fashioned western town thrives on serving residents and guests with the most up to date shopping, dining, CO real estate opportunities and entertainment possibilities.

While the town of Frisco is certainly a wonderful resort town located in Summit County, CO the county offers many other areas of interest, ski resorts, mountain real estate and activities. Some of those Summit County towns loaded with Colorado real estate are Breckenridge, Dillon, Keystone, Copper Mountain, and Silverthorne.

The Town of Frisco Colorado is nestled in the heart of Summit County and the heart of a lot of Colorado real estate at 9,097 feet in elevation. Practically surrounded by national forest, mountain real estate and then bordered on the east side by the shores of Lake Dillon Frisco is truly the special heart of Summit County, Colorado. In fact, its central location offers visitors a hub within Summit County with easy access to all the area has to offer; which is one reason so many choose to purchase their dream mountain real estate in Frisco Colorado.

From a long ago base for fur trappers and miners to a low in population of less than 20 to today's population of over 2400 year round residents! Frisco has always been in high demand for those seeking a resort town that is close to everything yet has its own special charm and reasons for simply hanging out in your Frisco home, condo or townhome.

The Town of Frisco is a hub to the county, yet the town itself offers a unique blend of Colorado Mountain Resort style charm and activities. Frisco is a true gem that is often referred to as the 'Main Street to the Rockies'.  An obvious choice for year round vacationing or real estate ownership or investment, Frisco offers a special blend of activities as well as lodging, resort real estate, shopping and dining.

Besides offering tremendous resort real estate opportunities Frisco also offers a charming Main Street complete with historic buildings, terrific views in all directions, a diverse group of shops, restaurants and bars, a marina on Lake Dillon, a Nordic Center, easy access to hiking in the National Forest, sunshine and humid free summer days. A great place to spend a week, a month or years!

Frisco is a short drive to Breckenridge, Dillon, Keystone, Copper Mountain and even Vail. Many purchase their dream vacation home in Frisco knowing that they are only a short drive to Vail! Frisco is the host to the Colorado BBQ Challenge; where the town closes off Main Street for great fun, food and friends. The fourth of July in Frisco is virtually a town party complete with the largest parade in Summit County, music and Fireworks over Lake Dillon. You will also find events like Music on Main, Tour de Fat and a mountain style Octoberfest.

The Town of Frisco is also the host to many countywide services such as; A new medical center/hospital that is absolute beautiful, surrounded by forest and views, The County Commons, A Senior Center, The DMV office, a large library as well as the county government offices.
