Sweeping Rocky Mountain views define the Lac Amora neighborhood
In Lac Amora, one might think they’re back on the 19th-century frontier alongside the first intrepid souls who ventured west. The Colorado neighborhood offers a vast expanse to the north. To the west, the Rockies rise in the distance, keeping watch over Lac Amora. “The view to the west of Lac Amora is one of the best in the county,” Voss says, “with gorgeous foothills and Front Range views. There’s not many better places to view the Flatirons, Longs Peak and – on a clear day – Pikes Peak.”

Zang Spur Park and Lac Amora Park have playgrounds and mountain views
Zang Spur Park is a hotspot for anyone looking to get outdoors and offers a wide range of activities at Lac Amora’s southeastern edge. Attendees can clamber up the playground’s climbing wall and come back down to earth via the slide, while competitors can play pickup games of baseball, basketball, tennis or beach volleyball on its fields and courts. The park also features the Broomfield Depot Museum, a relic from more than a century before that served as housing for railroad crews. Lac Amora Park’s playground and baseball diamond also draw those venturing outdoors, while Josh’s Pond is at the western edge of the Lac Amora neighborhood and offers a vista of the Rocky Mountains’ Front Range. Several homes sit alongside the pond, and it wouldn’t be a surprise to encounter some wildlife atop the hill it’s on. The pond is also connected to several other bodies of water in the area by the Lake Link Trail, which stretches for nearly 10 miles. “Lake Link Trail is a link to lots of other trails, mostly heading west towards Boulder,” says Donna Voss, a real estate associate with RE/MAX in the Boulder area for nearly 30 years. “They have fantastic views, and Zang Spur and Lac Amora Parks both have playgrounds, picnic tables and lots of green space to run, play and relax under a tree.” To the north, across an open expanse of land, is the Carolyn Holmberg Preserve at Rock Creek Park, which boasts several trails and an emphasis on protecting wildlife and agriculture in the area.
