Anything goes in Lake City – except stoplights

It’s a town with no stoplights, and it also happens to be the only town in Hinsdale County. Needless to say, Lake City is a historic town uniquely its own—and that alone is reason enough to book a Lake City vacation rental. But you’ll find so much more to appreciate in this area that was designated a National Historic District in the 1970s. Today, it’s home to everything from a stunning lake (of course!) to scenic trails to stunning wildlife. Even the byways here are attractive!

Scary good fun in old-timey Lake City

The Hinsdale County Museum offers more than just fascinating history exhibits. You can go on a virtual train ride of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, go on a ghost tour, and witness live performances. Lake City was once a core mining town, a history that is explored at the Hard Tack Mine Tours & Museum. Lake City itself is steeped in deep history; the Historic District features beautifully preserved churches, log cabins, and other structures dating from the 1870s.

Coming around the mountain (and into the wine bar)

In a valley of the San Juan Mountains, Lake City is certainly ideally situated for outdoor adventures. You can set up camp one of the many area grounds, or enjoy a picnic lunch. Fancy a night out? Nightlife options here are chic, with wine bars, steakhouses, and old-timey saloons in the mix. If you want to learn your way around town, book a guided tour with Lake City Mountain Tours—you’ll be humbled by the mesmerizing mountain views and birds soaring overhead. A stroll through town is equally rewarding, even if you’re just marveling at the charming tree-lined streets or the venerable buildings.

Wildin' out over the wildflowers of Lake City

Wildflowers add dazzling color to the San Juan mountain slopes—there are over 150 different species in the area alone. Waterfalls abound throughout Lake City, too, the most spectacular of which can be found in North Clear Creek Falls. Lake San Cristobal, the second largest lake in Colorado, is a great spot to watch for elk, moose, beavers, and other types of wildlife. You can also park at the marshy Red Mountain Gulch Day Use Area and take in the sunset—don’t be surprised if you spot a moose in the brush.
