Vallecito Lake Chamber of Commerce

Vallecito Lake Chamber of Commerce Chamber of Commerce for the Vallecito Lake area Your Mountain Vacation Destination "In the Heart of Durango Lake Country"!

Sheltered in a secluded mountain valley 8,000 feet above sea level, Vallecito Lake is one of the largest and most beautiful bodies of water in Colorado. Vallecito, Spanish for "Little Valley", and ancestral home to many of Colorado's Ute Indians, became the name of the sparkling waters of the lake it surrounded. Located in the Southwestern part of the state just 18 miles from Durango, Vallecito pr

ovides a perfect base for enjoying the Four Corners area and its many wonders. But there's no need to travel after your arrival. You can certainly enjoy a "stay-put" vacation right here at the lake. With 12 miles of shoreline, Vallecito sits in the heart of the unspoiled San Juan National Forest and offers a variety of accommodations and recreational opportunities.
