After years of struggling for identity, Avon has made great strides to become a central destination in the Vail Valley

Over the years, Avon has become a full-fledged town no longer defined solely by its close proximity to Vail and Beaver Creek Resort. Property values and numerous new developments reflect Avon’s new status as the "down valley" center of business. Avon has "big" plans to become a more formidable village center and the gateway to skiing at Beaver Creek. A new public library and six million dollar Recreation Center offer numerous activities for residents. Both buildings are located on Nottingham Lake, providing a beautiful spot for residents to enjoy numerous recreational opportunities, parks and playgrounds.
With the new Recreation Center open, Nottingham Lake is complete with an indoor pool, water slide and fitness facility. All year long, families enjoy numerous outdoor pleasures. Paddleboats, fishing, in-line skating, beach volleyball and soccer fields beckon in the warmer months. Come winter, the log cabin rents ice skates for those who enjoy the thrill of outdoor skating on the lake. Be sure to check the calendar of events for the many special happenings at the lake, including Town of Avon’s incredible Fourth of July fireworks display.
