Chatfield Bluffs blends outdoor fun with urban proximity

If you want access to parks while staying close to a metropolitan district, Chatfield Bluffs balances the bright lights of Denver with proximity to nature. “It’s a very community feel,” Davis says. “I think the reason why people love Chatfield Bluffs is the accessibility to all the great recreation that’s right there, the accessibility to the highway and you’re so close to the foothills here."

Hiking, biking and horseback riding at Hildebrand Ranch Park

Though there are no parks within the Chatfield Bluffs neighborhood, the entire southern border and beyond is occupied by Hildebrand Ranch Park. The 1,671-acre area also has Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms within it on the banks of Deer Creek, which flows through the park. Chatfield Farms operates as a nature refuge and operational farm, while Hildebrand Ranch Park boasts more than seven miles of trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding. “There’s great hiking and walkability, and it’s nice to have something very close,” says RE/MAX team leader and associate Kim Davis. “You can walk right to both the botanic gardens and Hildebrand. You’re just so close to the foothills with hiking and mountain biking. It’s great for recreational purposes, and Chatfield Lake is great too.”

Chatfield State Park lies just to the southeast across Highway 121, where you can go boating on the lake, soak up the sun on the swim beach or visit the Audubon Center to learn more about nature. Wingate South Park makes up the northeast border across Highway 470. The mile-long park offers a pair of playgrounds, a basketball court and a pond. If you’re on a Frisbeeing kick, you can toss the disc at a designated field in the neighborhood’s northeast corner.

Local restaurants and shops line the Kipling corridor

For local fare, pop into Homegrown Tap & Dough, which aims to celebrate the state’s culture while serving its customers with delicious pizza, sandwiches and more. “Tap & Dough is off of Ken Caryl and newer – people really like it,” Davis says. “In Kipling corridor, as far as restaurants, there’s a little pocket – everyone loves Los Dos Potrillos, a Mexican restaurant on this side of town. You go in there and run into people you know all the time.” At Los Dos Potrillos, grab a quesadilla, burrito or taco with chips and queso, or peruse the menu for options including Veracruz-style fish, Mexican-style shrimp or Monterey chicken. Department stores like Kohl’s are also in the Kipling area, and the Chatfield Bluffs region is about half an hour’s drive from Denver’s metropolitan area while staying close to the rolling foothills.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
