A midtown Fort Collins community

Just 3 miles south of downtown Fort Collins, Scotch Pines is a midtown community less than a mile from a dozen local eateries and community parks. As its name suggests, this late 1900s neighborhood’s streets are lined with mature evergreens and oaks, and many yards have low-water-sue landscaping due to the arid climate of Colorado’s Front Range.
