A quiet residential pocket with nearby parks and walking trails
On the southern outskirts of Fort Collins, bordered by natural areas and agriculture fields, Provincetown has quiet streets away from the active atmosphere of downtown, while being just 3 miles from the nearest grocery store. “The area is home to a lot of parks, and nice sidewalks and walking trails,” says Brady Walters, a local Realtor with RE/MAX Alliance. “It’s a quiet part of town, but it has great access to the interstate, which makes it attractive to commuters.” Homes have large lots and more square footage compared to neighborhood’s closer to the city’s center, with a lakeside park serving as a local gathering place.

Recreation with Rocky Mountain views
Water’s Way Park is less than a mile walk from all the neighborhood’s homes, with a playground, open field space, a skate park and a basketball court. The Robert Benson Reservoir borders the park, with the snow-capped Rocky Mountains serving as a picturesque backdrop. The park is bordered by the Pelican Marsh Natural Area, named for the white pelicans that live in its wetlands, which has a mile long trail that connects walkers to the Fossil Creek Wetlands trail system. “There are trails all across Fort Collins,” Walters says. “We are known for being bikeable and trails connect to every part of the city.” Provincetown lies around 6 miles east of the southern tip of the Horsetooth Reservoir. The 1,900-acre reservoir is one of the most popular recreation areas in Fort Collins. In the summer months, visitors can be found swimming, boating and paddle boarding in the water, while the surrounding area has over 20-miles of trails popular among hikers and mountain bikers.
