Trailside is in the Westminster/Arvada area northwest of Denver. The neighborhood is situated equidistant between Denver and Boulder and offers lots of bike and walking trails. Trailside is an apt name for this area, as a paved walking and biking trail follows the Little Dry Creek Tributary through the middle of the neighborhood. The trail also goes through two parks in Trailside, providing convenient access to outdoor recreation. Trailside is also considered at the Rocky Mountains' Eastern foothills.
Convenient to outdoor fun
The two parks in Trailside include Nottingham Park, where the paved trail that follows the Little Dry Creek Tributary begins, which is around 7 acres. The park has a pavilion, several picnic tables, some under a shelter, multi-use turf fields for soccer or baseball and a playground. Trailside Park is larger than Nottingham Park at 10 acres but is a longer and thinner piece of land. There is a pavilion, two picnic tables and a playground. A short drive to the west will lead to Standley Lake, which spans about 3,000 acres and includes a wildlife refuge. Of course, there’s fun on the water, including paddleboarding, kayaking and fishing. The lake is also the primary drinking water source for the City of Westminster. Pomona Lake is much smaller and is a little bit closer. That lake is stocked with largemouth bass, catfish and bluegill.
Trailside Park has many spots for relaxation.
Trailside Park's playground and pavilion offer space for families to play.

Cul-de-sacs and suburban winding roads
There’s very little chance of someone driving through the Trailside neighborhood without having a purpose. With entrances off the main streets of 88th Avenue, Wadsworth Boulevard and Garrison St, the homes in the neighborhood can be found on winding roads that connect to various cul-de-sacs. “The homes here were all built in the same period of the late 1970s and early 1980s,” says Karen Levine, a Realtor with RE/MAX Alliance. “That’s why there are so many ranch-style and bi-levels.” Most have three to four bedrooms and 1,000 and 2,400 square feet. “The single-family homes are priced between $450,000 and $600,000,” Levine adds. Condos and townhouses also are prominent, with some below 1,000 square feet. Those prices run from $300,000 to $400,000. Sixty-six percent of people in Trailside are homeowners.

Throwback vibe and Italian food
The owner of Sano’s Italian Kitchen says on the restaurant’s website that he wanted to create a throwback vibe to Denver supper clubs of the 1950s. Signature dishes include the Eggplant Caroline and classic Italian dishes like Fettuccine Alfredo or Rigatoni Macaroni. Snarf’s Sandwiches started in Boulder in 1996 but has grown into a regional chain. The sandwiches are made to order with premium meats, cheeses and crisp veggies.
