100-year-old homes near the MSU campus and downtown Bozeman
Houses over 100 years old are often for sale in Cooper Park, one of Bozeman’s largest historic neighborhoods. Plus, it's a short walk away from two of the busiest areas in the city. To the north, the neighborhood touches the bustling restaurants and businesses of downtown Bozeman, and to the south, the historic homes stand a few blocks away from Montana State University. “I’d say people take pride in the University,” says Ryan Martello, a Realtor with Realty ONE Group Peak. “There's a good relationship between the students and the city.” Another great perk of living here is that the CAP Index gives Cooper Park a 2 out of 10 crime score, which is lower than the national average of 4.
Cooper Park sits in the heart of the Cooper Park neighborhood.
Cooper Park is located just down the street from Montana State University.

A namesake park, and hiking an hour away
Named for the neighborhood, Cooper Park is in the center of the neighborhood, and it's a popular place for families with children to visit on a warm day. “I’d say it’s a very active city,” says Hanson. Hiking trails and camping spots are all over the Gallatin Valley. Fairy Lake, about 30 miles away, is one of the most popular spots in the area. People paddleboard, swim and float in tubes across the clear blue water, and the Sacagawea Peak trailhead starts at the parking lot. The trail winds through a thick forest before breaking into rocky mountain slopes. Goats patrol the highest parts of the trail in the early morning, and the bushes that manage to grow along the trail often snag tufts of white goat fur.
Hyalite Reservoir near Cooper Park is so beautiful that you'll want to paint it.

Downtown Bozeman's hustle and bustle
Cooper Park has access to the bustling heart of downtown Bozeman. Shops, restaurants and bars line West Main Street and offer everything from breakfast to late-night drinks. Jam! opens at 7 a.m. and often has a 15–20-minute wait for a table, and Plonk’s dim lighting and modern music playlist create a relaxing atmosphere for date night. Studio Coffee Roasters and Beacon Coffee Roasters are on the southwest corner of the neighborhood and often bustle with college students on lunch breaks or studying for exams. Cooper Park is also about a mile from one of the most popular donut shops in Bozeman, Granny’s Gourmet Donuts. “Granny’s is an institution,” says Hanson. “You have to line up before they open to get a donut.” There are plenty of options for treats and meals around Cooper Park, and groceries are close by, too. The Bozeman Co-Op on Main Street is less than half a mile from most homes in the neighborhood. Downtown Bozeman also has plenty of places to shop, like Lululemon, Schnee's and Alara Jewelry.
