Equestrian Home Rentals in Colorado – Board or Rent a Horse Nearby

If you want to ride horses in Colorado, ask about home rentals.  Near the city, choose from rental homes west of Denver or Colorado Springs or in Douglas County.   Though you could end up buying your own horse property in Boulder or Douglas counties, try renting a house or condo close to stables.  In Colorado you cannot get too far from horses.

Rent a home and a horse.  Why not?  Your life is fluid right now and it is hard to commit to caring for a horse or owning the pastor you need.  Indoor riding arenas, private lessons, plenty for children – dressage, hunter and jumper–and rodeo are offered throughout the area.  Talk to Colorado Luxe Living Property Management division.  We will find you a rental home near equestrian activities.

Do you only ride occasionally?  There are hundreds of equestrian ranches throughout Summit County.  Rudolph Ranch and Elk Ridge Ranch in Dillon or Breckenridge Stables for starters.  Closer to Denver, check out stables in Conifer or Evergreen or Brighton.  Triple Creek Ranch in Longmont and the list goes on.

Buying Equestrian Properties in Central Colorado

If you dream of the Colorado Western lifestyle, think about buying a Colorado home in a horse friendly subdivision.  At many in Douglas County feature 5-acre parcels.  Several neighborhoods also feature community barns and stables.  Bannock Ranch in Colorado Springs comes to mind.  As do the Douglas County subdivisions in Parker and on the west side of Castle Rock.  Maybe Pradera or Horse Creek.

Start an Equine Hobby

Horses and their horseback riders thrive in Central Colorado.  Our equine friends sense their importance in keeping us happy and healthy.  Trails lead along the rivers, through the undulating foothills, and into meadows and dales.  Regardless of where you go, take the time to show up at rodeos and county fairs when the lockdown eases up.  They will give you a peek at the equestrian opportunities around Denver and Colorado Springs.

Through the seasons, horses lead us through the cathedrals of Colorado wildernesses and woodlands.  Take your horse and venture into the national forests and mountain peaks in Summit County for some fantastic vistas.

From the top of Pikes Peak, Katherine Lee Bates penned the lyrics to “America the Beautiful.”  She saw the majesty from the summit; we usually find the splendor from its base. Colorado Springs was founded in 1871 and grew heartily after General Palmer installed the railroad.  People first came for the climate, healing and gold. Today, 700,000 residents kindle the heart of prime Colorado Springs communities.

Recreation

The sun shines upon Colorado Springs more than 300 days of the year, encouraging a variety of recreational and leisure activities.  The Alpine desert climate gives us just enough rain and snow to remind us we have four seasons.  The average humidity is 51.5 percent.  This lends itself to mountain hikes, mountain biking, fishing, and plenty of games and sports.

Attractions and Activities

Whether you plan to visit local attractions often or simply to tour with your houseguests, there will always be interesting places to show.  The landmark United States Air Force Academy sits right along a major hiking and biking trail that runs north/south through the area.  It passes the Garden of the Gods where you find red rock formations.  Children enjoy visits to Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and Seven Falls Park.

Over 150 city and state parks add to the beauty of Colorado Springs.  Seasoned trails lead through many of them, including horse trails.  You’ll be able to explore the Great Outdoors in larger ones like Pulpit Rock Park, Palmer Park, Pikes Peak Recreation Area, and North Slope Recreation Area.  Then, it may be time to head out for whitewater rafting in Canyon or alpine skiing and fly-fishing in the High Country.

Education and Economy

Good public and private schools feed into robust options for higher education.  More than a handful of colleges and universities present residents with a variety of options.  These schools feed into the needs of local employers and large companies.  The equation feeds many sectors of the Colorado Springs economy.  It weaves around the health industry, tourism, defense industry, and a strong IT community.

In addition to the US Air Force Academy, colleges include Pikes Peak Community College, Colorado College, Colorado Technical University, DeVry University, University of Colorado, and Webster.

Denver Economy is Robust and Multiplying Opportunities

/in , /by

Downtown Denver Real Estate

The Denver Economy keeps multiplying.  As the U.S. population moves to the south and west of the nation, more talent is relocating to Denver real estate.  Large and small companies are recruiting and families are jumping on the opportunities.  The growing Denver population is approaching 700,000 and Greater Denver includes about 2.8 million.  Nonetheless, Denver, Colorado boasts one of the lowest unemployment rates in the United States.

What’s driving the economy? Start with a perfect location in the heart of the nation.  Add a strong dose of the entrepreneurial spirit.  Build on the foundation in agriculture, mining, and tourism.  Take it up a notch with technology.  And let’s see what we have:  a diversified economy.

Diversified Denver Economy

Colorado and the Greater Denver region are home to a broad range of companies and businesses of all sizes.  They offer desirable quality of life, salaries, services, and products.  These combine to accelerate the fast-growing economy.  For example, Denver has been known as the “Wall Street of the Rockies” because of its banking and financial sectors.  Major national and international institutions take advantage of centralized location within the nation.  These network with other sectors.  Take logistics.

Transportation Hub

Denver Union StationDenver is a regional hub for coordination and transportation in the Western United States.   It is also a Foreign Trade Zone, which is advantageous for international trade.  Goods come and go via trucking routes, rail, and air.  For example, farming and ranching operations fill the fruited plains on the eastern side of the city. Major growers and small farms take advantage of the prime location.  We cannot miss the beautiful fields as we fly out of Denver International Airport.

The manufacturing sector also takes advantage of the ability to ship product.  Mining and farming machinery, rubber goods, fabricated metals, chemicals, allied stone and clay products, transportation equipment, scientific instruments, Western clothing, and more.

High-Tech Capabilities

Denver is the largest city to offer “one-bounce satellite uplinks with real-time connections to 6 continents in one day.  This fast Internet supports all kinds of industries, high-technology research, computer storage and peripherals among them.  Air transportation, telecommunications, and aerospace industries are also alive and well.

Full Complement of Services

Denver Colorado Real EstateThen there are the Service industries.  Denver is home to several colleges, universities and training programs.  Hospitals, medical facilities, and health industries provide care for hundreds of thousands of residents.  Vacation rentals and hospitality, restaurants, transportation, entertainment and the arts often merge with retail shopping industries.

Denver’s construction companies scurry to build new Denver homes for sale.  Real estate agents in turn reach out to welcome residents to invest in Denver real estate.   And the list of services available in the Metro Denver region continues.

Recent Industry Surges

Over the past decade, other trends have brought new industries and accompanying growth.  New and changed laws and regulations are having an effect, too. Think oil fields, marijuana, health foods, breweries.  The local Denver7 TV station recently focused on seven robust industries: Tech, Agriculture, Real Estate, Craft Beer, Cannabis, Energy, and Tourism.  In many ways, these diverse sectors combine to strengthen one another.

Business Incentives

Denver also offers some incentives for new businesses.  The Mayor’s Office of Economic Development & International Trade assists business by offering state tax credits for creating jobs.  This dovetails with its mission to retain and create quality jobs in Denver.  In addition, beneficial Colorado state programs attract companies to Greater Denver.
