Crown Mountain Park & Recreation
Crown Mountain Park, 124 acres in the center of the Roaring Fork Valley, provides a place where people of all ages can gather to relax, play, learn and discover. A park not only enjoyed by our children today, but an irreplaceable asset to the community. Crown Mountain Park hopes to meet the recreational needs of a wide spectrum of the community and will provide a flexible framework to be added to and shaped by future generations. Get directions.
Crown Mountain Vision Statement
Crown Mountain Park & Recreation District is a living, evolving entity that respects both land and people. The purpose of the District is to create a community legacy by providing parks and recreation. The District fosters a sense of place, provides opportunities and places for community gathering, and provides diverse, equitable and safe recreation opportunities for all through creative collaboration.
Mid Valley Recreation Center
In 2007, a group of Mid Valley residents had a dream...a vision that their children, friends and neighbors could gather for fun and exercise at a nearby recreation center that no longer meant driving long distances to either end of the Roaring Fork Valley. That dream became the proposed Mid Valley Recreation Center, whose fate is now before the Eagle County government.
The Mid Valley Recreation Center at Crown Mountain Park is envisioned as a community gathering place for the 10,000 residents of the mid valley. It has been designed to fit within the landscape at Crown Mountain Park. Adjacent to soccer, softball field and trails, it will offer a variety of affordable fitness and recreation programs for all ages.
Facility and Programs
- Indoor swimming area with lap and recreation pools and hot tub
- Kayaking, water polo, water aerobics, scuba diving and more
- Multi-purpose gymnasium for basketball, volleyball, martial arts, gymnastics, indoor soccer, zero gravity, badminton, dances, movies, birthday parties and more
- Weight training and cardio facilities

If the Mid Valley Recreation Center application is approved by Eagle County, the Crown Mountain Board will determine when to place the question on the ballot. Voters would be deciding on a $25 million construction bond and a $500,000 subsidy for operations and maintenance of the Center. The total estimated cost to taxpayers in the Crown Mountain Park and Recreation District would be $3.26/month per $100,000 of a home's market value or $16.30/month for a $500,000 home.
