The Dillon Ice Castles have been a big hit since they came to Colorado a few years ago and are always one of those attractions that sell out quickly. The amazing colors and ethereal displays delight children and adults alike, making this a family-favorite.
The ice castles also have locations in North Woodstock, NH; Midway, UT; and Lake Geneva, WI.
Often described as a fairy tale brought to life, it takes almost two months and a lot of people to construct the giant icicles and embed them with LED lights.
