A pedestrian-friendly community with historic charm
Situated halfway between Fort Collins and Greeley, Windsor is a community of historic charm and an abundance of outdoor recreation. Downtown Windsor has dozens of brick-and-mortar eateries and shops, with buildings dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The town began to develop in the 1880s when the Great Salt Lake and Pacific Railroad connected to the area, and development has been steady ever since. Some of the original buildings remain, including the 1905 Yancey Block building, which housed some of the town’s earliest businesses. Today, residents of downtown are within walking distance of eateries, town events and the picturesque Windsor Lake. “People are drawn to Windsor because it's more laid back than nearby towns like Fort Collins, but you have all the necessities in one place,” says Maxwell Poduska, a local Realtor with Golba Group Real Estate. “Plus, the area is super pedestrian friendly. It's common for people to walk or bike to the shops and restaurants downtown.”
Local restaurants on Main Street
Windsor Lake Coffee is a quaint cafe on Main Street with seasonal baked goods, sandwiches and soup. William Oliver’s Publick House is a local chain with classic pub fare, draft beer and hand-crafted cocktails. For an upscale evening out, diners can visit Chimney Park, which first opened its doors in 2007. The restaurant uses locally sourced ingredients in its dishes and has over 400 wine selections. For groceries, residents can drive about a mile east along Main Street to King Soopers or Safeway.

An abundance of recreation options
Boardwalk Community Park sits on the shore of Windsor Lake and has open green space, a playground, shaded picnic areas and a sandy beach where locals can be found swimming and sunbathing in the summer months. The Windsor Lake Loop Trail is a paved, 2-mile path encircling the lake. Dog owners can take their four-legged friends to the Windsor Lake Dog Park to get some off-leash exercise and take a dip in the water. The Windsor Community Recreation Center houses two gymnasiums, an indoor track, fitness equipment and an aquatics center. “There are a lot of unique options for outdoor recreation in Windsor,” says Poduska. “We have one of the longest golf courses in the United States and a popular spot for tubing and skiing nearby in Raindance.”
