The Town of Avon is located on the valley floor at the base of Beaver Creek Resort. Property values and numerous new developments reflect Avon’s status as the "down valley" center of business. The Town also has plans to become a more formidable village center. The Village at Avon will continue to increase the number of commercial and residential opportunities with its location providing 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 to enjoy numerous recreational opportunities, parks and playgrounds.
The Recreation Center includes an indoor pool, water slide and fitness facility. And all year long, families enjoy numerous outdoor pleasures. Paddle boats, 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.
