About Dolores

Set along the banks of the Dolores River in southwestern Colorado, Dolores is an easygoing small town with big outdoor appeal. Locals spend weekends boating and fishing on McPhee Reservoir, exploring trails in the nearby San Juan National Forest, or visiting the Canyons of the Ancients museum right up the hill. It is a quiet, welcoming community with a rich railroad past and direct access to some of the best scenery in the Four Corners.
