On the west end of Fort Collins, just 2 miles east of the Horsetooth Reservoir, Rogers Park allows for easy access to both downtown conveniences and hundreds of acres of waterside recreation. The neighborhood's residential streets are quiet, with mid-to-late 20th century architecture on display.
Split-levels, Colonial Revivals and ranch-style homes were built throughout the 1970s and span between 1,000 and 2,500 square feet. Most homes sit on well-manicured quarter-acre lots with fenced-in back yards and attached garages. These 1970s houses go for $450,000 to $650,000, while newly constructed craftsman-style homes along Pear Street range from $500,000 to $900,000. Rogers Park also has a selection of condominiums at the intersection of Elizabeth Street and South Overland Trail, with one and two-bedroom units ranging from $290,000 to $400,000.
Bauder Elementary School earns a B overall grade from Niche and Lincoln Middle School receives a B-minus. The B-plus-rated Poudre High School is just a half mile north of Rogers Park and is an International Baccalaureate school. The high school also offers the P-Tech learning model, where students earn hands-on industry experience and graduate with a high school diploma, an associate degree and industry-recognized credentials in advanced manufacturing. Poudre High also has a wide variety of extracurriculars, including clubs centered around film, esports and cycling.
The neighborhood’s namesake park has open field space, a playground, paved walking paths and a basketball court. The Horsetooth Reservoir is the largest and most popular area for outdoor recreation in the Fort Collins area and lies just a short drive west of Rogers Park. In the summer months, visitors come from surrounding towns for weekend trips to the reservoir to waterski, tube, boat or relax on one of the sandy beaches. The Horsetooth Mountain Open Space borders the reservoir and has nearly 30 miles of mountainous trails for hiking and mountain biking. “My partner and I like that we are within an hour of so many recreation activities,” says Lucy Thomas, a Fort Collins local and frequent visitor of the Horsetooth Reservoir. “It only takes an hour to reach Rocky Mountain National Park and there are a lot of nearby spots for dispersed camping. You can really camp in a different spot every weekend for the whole summer without having to drive far from the city.”
Gables Plaza is to the southeast of the neighborhood and has a handful of eateries. Residents can grab a cup of Joe from Dutch Bros Coffee or order a toasted sub from Cheba Hut, which has 26 unique sandwiches on its menu, along with small bites and signature cocktails. The Emporium Sports Bar serves pizza, chicken wings and other pub classics. Patrons can play a round of pool or darts while sipping on a draft beer. White Tree Sushi and Asian Cuisine has a mix of Japanese and Korean cuisines. For groceries and other essentials, there's a King Soopers on South Taft Hill Road.
Rogers Park is about a 3-mile drive from Fort Collins’s Old Town neighborhood via Mulberry Street. “Old Town is the place to go for dining out in Fort Collins,” says Mike Sibbald, a local Realtor with Elevations Real Estate. “Lots of residents will walk or bike to Old Town when the weather is nice. The hundreds of biking lanes and trails across town have helped with our congested parking downtown.” Commuters will also find numerous Transfort bus stops along West Elizabeth Street and South Taft Hill Drive.
