Dillon State Park

This park has a lot offer and feels new. We enjoyed tent camping with our family and gladly would return. We took advantage of hiking and time at the dam. Our campsite wasn't great for tents, there was a lot of sloping and holes but we made it work.

This park would be a lot nicer if it was cleaned up. I saw at least 6 tires, along with beer cans, cigarette lighters, and all kinds of other trash. Is there a competition to dump tires here? Anyway, there are almost no signs at any of the intersecting trails, let alone maps. There are also a lot of mosquitoes here. Aside from that, there is charm to this park, but a few improvements could go a long way.

Nice little state park. Peaceful. Not too busy. Some areas are trashy. Lots of good fishing places. Lots of people fishing. Beach area is nice. Water is dirty though. Good place to relax during sunset. Good place to walk, picnic with family and friends.

Dillon State Park is a beautiful place to hike. There are several hiking trails and trails available for horseback riding and biking. The trails are well marked and the blazes are easy to follow. It usually isn't busy and most of the time, you have the trail to yourself. You should wear appropriate footwear for hiking, the terrain changes frequently. The path can go from smooth to rocky and uneven. The trails at Dillon State Park have a lot to offer.

Gosh this park has sooo much potential. It is so close to being amazing. We stayed in the cabins which I think is a deal for what you get. The story book trail is adorable and the kids loved it. The lake is breathtaking but it's just not taken care of. It would have been the perfect day to swim but the lake is not swimmable. It just needs some TLC.
