Daniel Clute
Owner
Restoring The Avon is the brainchild of Daniel who fell in love with the San Juan Mountains and Silverton through annual winter ski trips. When he noticed the "For Sale" sign hanging on the aging brick building the seed was planted. Dan saw the potential for a thriving establishment in the aging shell of the historic property and has worked diligently to make this a reality.
