The perfect backdrop for an active retirement lifestyle is Summit County, Colorado. With breathtaking views and countless amenities, people who’ve worked hard for so many years can finally relax and have it all.
Summit County provides deserving retirees an escape from the bumper-to-bumper traffic, pollution, and harried lifestyles of the city. People flock here for the recreational amenities, the mountain scenery, the unbeatable air quality, and the hometown atmosphere.
The quality of life is exceptional, especially for seniors. The modern, state-of-the-art medical facilities and the competent police and fire departments provide a worry-free, secure environment.
The community offers beautiful homes, tennis, fishing, biking, hiking, fitness, championship golf, world-class skiing, and fine dining. There is also ample opportunity to keep minds sharp with a great library system, Colorado Mountain College, and countless museums and art galleries.
There is absolutely no danger of becoming listless and bored here. There are many opportunities for those who wish to volunteer or even get a part-time job to stay active in the community.
Days are filled with friendly gatherings on the mountain or at the lake. Evenings are the best time to catch a concert at the Dillon Amphitheater or see a production at the Breckenridge Riverwalk Center.
In senior groups like the popular Over-The-Hill-Gang, watch out for dynamos who’ve spent their first 50 years climbing uphill in the workforce, and are now getting a chance to enjoy the powder as they ‘schuss’ downhill at one of the wonderful ski resorts! These groups meet year-round for activities such as skiing, summer sports, and social events. It is a great way to establish life-long friendships and build camaraderie among local seniors.
The people are friendly and are one of the main reasons that visitors decide to become residents. The atmosphere is vibrant and the people possess a “kindred spirit,” which makes getting to know the neighbors a lot more interesting. There is a sense of warmth here when neighbors gather on front porches for carefree conversations.
Retirees love the natural beauty of the area – it just seems to give them a sense of peace. They appreciate having a spectacular setting to enjoy with visiting friends and family – the grandkids LOVE it!
They take leisurely strolls through the woods, or hike up Mt. Royal. They skip rocks on Lake Dillon or skip rope at Breckenridge Recreation Center. Whatever the level of activity, there is much enjoyment to be found for retirees of all ages in Summit County.
Spirits are soothed and passions for the outdoors are nurtured. It’s a place that encourages not just living, but living life to the fullest.
