I know why you’re here… you were scrolling through your Facebook news feed and were flabbergasted to see “tropical vacation” and “Colorado” in the same sentence, right? I know, I know; Colorado is not considered to be a premiere tropical destination, BUT we have our own spin on it, thanks to this one mountain town that is – dare we say – tropical-esque.
Located 70 miles west of Denver is the enchanting mountain town of Frisco, AKA the "Main Street Of The Rockies."
Today, Frisco is home to just over 3,000 residents and boasts a number of popular attractions like the stunning Dillon Reservoir, museums, and one-of-a-kind shops.
Named one of Sunset Magazine's best decks in the western US, Pug Ryan's is North America's highest Tiki Bar and offers both killer views and excellent drink specials!
The Tiki Bar is located right across the reservoir at 150 Marina Dr., Dillon, CO 80435. They are open seasonally from 11:30 a.m. to sunset (often later during the summer months).
Check out the Town of Frisco's website for more information on where to stay, eat, and play!
