Suburban neighborhood on the shores
Lakeside homes and mountain scenery are prominent features of McIntosh, a residential neighborhood that curves around its namesake reservoir. “It’s one of the best places to walk and get a great view,” says Realtor Teresa Lomax, Co-owner of Equity Colorado Real Estate. “Half of the neighborhood is surrounded by the lake’s shores – that’s the community there – and the other side is open space.” The streets are lined with a variety of houses that are close enough to enjoy all that McIntosh Lake has to offer.
McIntosh Lake is only a short drive and sometimes short walk away.
There are homes available right by the water of McIntosh Lake.

Recreation for both water and land
McIntosh Lake and the surrounding open space take up nearly half of the neighborhood. As a public reservoir, non-motorized boating and fishing are allowed, though swimming is prohibited. “Paddleboarding is a big thing out there,” says Realtor Marie Raines, Co-Owner of Equity Colorado Real Estate. Visitors can use one of the multiple boat launches to get a kayak or sailboat out onto the water. There’s also a pirate-themed playground at the lake’s neighborhood entrance. Gravel trails surround the reservoir and wind into the natural area beyond, allowing parkgoers to explore nature and the wildlife. “Bald eagles have nests around the lake, and we’ve got foxes there too,” Raines says. Additionally, these trails continue and connect to other parks nearby. Dawson Park is lakeside, making it easy for shoreline fishing. The green space also has a playground, tennis courts and sand volleyball. Further north of the area, Flanders Park has a basketball court that can be used for roller hockey. Additionally, golf enthusiasts can travel a mile south of the neighborhood to the City of Longmont’s Twin Peaks Golf Course. There’s a full driving range and a practice facility to go along with its 18 fairways.
Dawson Park has scenic views of mountains and McIntosh Lake.
