Things to do near Silverton

Your Lakefront cabin isn’t just a cabin—it’s your gateway to Colorado fun. Silverton offers something in every season:

Summer adventures

Summer brings warm days and endless outdoor fun.
Spend your mornings hiking or biking local trails, afternoons kayaking or paddleboarding on Vallecito Lake, and evenings grilling dinner outside your cabin.
Fishing is especially popular this time of year, with plenty of opportunities steps from your cabin.

Fall getaways

When the crowds thin out, fall colors transform the valley.
Every hillside becomes a postcard.
Hunters also find this season ideal, with easy access to the San Juan National Forest from your Lakefront cabin in Silverton.

Winter escapes

Winter is for skiers, snowboarders, and snow lovers.
With Purgatory and Wolf Creek ski resorts nearby, plus snowmobiling trails and a fully groomed Nordic track, your cabin becomes a perfect place to warm up.
Ice fishing is also popular from January through March, with tournaments that make the lake come alive in winter.

Spring refresh

Spring is ideal for slower escapes, perfect for anyone avoiding crowds.
Trails begin to open, wildlife comes alive, and the lake starts warming up for spring paddling and casting.
