With the warmest season in swing for its three-month stay, summerizing your Colorado home is vital to comfort and staying cool in high temps. Fortunately, this doesn’t mean installing an above-ground pool in your backyard.
It’s easy to get ready for summer with a few simple steps, starting with the following:
Screen Your Screens
From wasps to moths to mosquitos, Colorado is no stranger to summer invasions. Insects get into your home through open doors, as well as open windows with tattered screens. Before the season gets into full swing, assess your window screens for any damage. Bugs don’t just bug you; they also bite, sting, cause disease, and irritate the skin.
Splurge on Shade
The UV index, which measures the level of UV radiation, is quite elevated in Colorado during the summer months. While fall and winter can introduce low-to-moderate levels, June, July, and August have ratings that teeter between high and extremely high, making it easy to sustain a sunburn in 20 minutes or less. Sunscreen and layers offer protection, but so does shade to some extent. An umbrella and other types of shelter provide this reprieve without the inconvenience of constant SPF reapplication.
Clear Out the Gutters
Clearing out the gutters is a chore that’s easy to overlook. After all, clogged gutters aren’t a problem until they stop working. A gutter filled with dead leaves and other debris will plug eventually, resulting in standing water that overflows and a mess of decomposing foliage. If you’re not comfortable with ladders, there’s no need to conquer your fear; there are companies willing to clear your gutters for you.
Give the AC Some TLC
The high in Denver in July and August, the apex of summer, hovers just under 90 degrees and tends to stay high until the sun goes down. In other words, it gets toasty! Making sure your AC is in working order helps you, your family, and your pets stay comfortable. The easiest way to do this is to hire an HVAC company once a year for routine maintenance (even when the AC is working fine). Regular maintenance stops problems before they can start.
Redo the Decor
By now, your holiday decorations are probably safely stored somewhere in your basement or attic, but you may still have some winter decor and necessities front and center. Consider swapping out dark-colored pillows, blankets, and comforters for lighter, softer hues. Put away pumpkin-scented and clove-scented candles and get out those with lemon, mint, or grapefruit aromas. Finally, consider removing heavy drapes and curtains and hang thinner options, instead.
Summer in Colorado is when the sun has its moment to truly shine…and staying cool and comfortable requires just a little proactivity. We hope these tips have been helpful!
The Independence Community in Elizabeth, Colorado, offers beautiful new homes with views for miles. Contact us to learn more about what we have available.
As they say, the only constant is change. Take a look at most small towns in America and you’ll see that this is true. From new businesses to new homes, old stomping grounds tend to evolve and transform.
Of course, there’s still something to be said about history, nostalgia, and the good old days. So, while you can’t stop time, at least you can preserve it…and Independence Community is doing just that.
To honor the heritage of the area, Craft Companies is restoring a handful of structures and putting a modern spin on old memories. Some of these structures, located in the Independence neighborhood, date back centuries. The Independence Homestead House, the Farmhouse Victorian, and the barn are presently being restored and turned into community spaces for residents to enjoy.
Restoration enthusiasts are converting the Farmhouse Victorian into a coffee shop and community center. Originally built in 1921, the finished space will merge the times of yore with a cup of joe. The shop will include original artifacts, which are being restored, as well as information on their history, giving patrons a chance to explore the Elbert County that once was.
The History Quest, a local company that focuses on restoration and genealogy with a special niche in ranches, farms, and houses, is leading the restoration process. The company is headed by Shawn Strain, a local and lifelong resident of Elbert County and the former owner of an antique shop in Elizabeth.
The restoration is slated to include everything but the kitchen sink (although it may very well include the kitchen sink, too). Furniture and glassware are on the list of items scheduled for repair, and anything too damaged will be disposed of.
The process will even go beyond buildings and wares. Craft Companies, the developer behind Independence, is focusing on the outdoor surroundings, as well. Three windmills have been deemed iconic landmarks and protections are being put into place for wildlife corridors, natural vegetation areas, and wetlands.
Craft Companies has also partnered with the Butterfly Pavilion and Denver Urban Gardens to ensure that the Independence Community habitat is inviting to local pollinators, while laying a foundation for new gardens, complete with water-preserving techniques.
The Independence Neighborhood proves that everything old is new again, at least with hard work and a creative eye. The restoration will honor the history of the region while providing the community a place to gather, celebrate, and rejuvenate. It’s the ideal way to preserve the past and the future simultaneously.

If you’re excited about the prospect of becoming a homeowner, it’s time to start your search for the perfect property! New construction with excellent amenities surrounded by an abundance of open space are becoming much more difficult to find, leaving many buyers to settle. The good news is that these types of communities are still out there. The Independence neighborhood is a conservation community tucked away in the charming town of Elizabeth, just 15 minutes from downtown Parker. What started as a working ranch in the 1860s has become a flourishing community, with many of the original, centuries-old buildings in the process of being restored at the heart of the community in Homestead Park. Here, we share an update on the amenities that our residents will enjoy and the targeted completion dates:
Stargazer Event Lawn
Hosting or attending an outdoor event requires a beautifully manicured space. Our Stargazer Event lawn is perfect for socializing with friends and family or quiet reflection as you take part in viewing the twinkling stars. The event lawn is already completed and ready for residents to enjoy!
Victorian Home
Part of what makes our community exceptional is our commitment to honoring the legacy of the land. The original Victorian home, built by the original homesteaders in the 1880s, sits in the heart of the neighborhood in Homestead Park. Thanks to The History Quest, we’re in the process of restoring it to its full glory. A coffee shop will be part of the restored building, complete with artifacts from the original structure. Restoration specialist (and lifetime Coloradan) Shawn Strain is spearheading the effort, expected to be completed in late September 2022.
Dog Park
If you have furry friends, our dog park will be an excellent addition to your daily routine. It’ll offer plenty of space for pups to enjoy off-leash time, and you can’t beat the convenience of this amenity right here in the neighborhood. The dog park is currently anticipated to be finished by the end of November 2022.
Pool
As the temperature rises, there’s nothing better than a dip in the pool to cool down. Planned near the community clubhouse, the pool and pool house will provide the perfect gathering space for your group. Whether you’d like to soak up some sun poolside or hop in for a swim, the spa-like pool area will be a community favorite. The pool is expected to be completed in spring 2023, just in time for the arrival of warmer weather.
Fitness Center
In close proximity to the pool in Homestead Park with all the equipment you need for a great workout, the brand-new fitness center will be completed next year.
Community Clubhouse
When you need to book a space for a party or private gathering, the community clubhouse will make hosting stress-free and convenient. The spacious indoor/outdoor area will offer the ideal setting for any gathering, from large events to small, right in the heart of the community.
Community Garden
If you’re looking forward to testing out your green thumb, you’ll love the opportunity to grow your own fruits, veggies, and herbs in our community garden. The garden will feature raised beds and plenty of space to grow an ambitious harvest.
Miles of Hike and Bike Trails
Many miles within our community are dedicated to hike and bike trails, so you’ll always have the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors. Many of these trails lead to bluffs and overlooks located throughout the property so you can take in the stunning views.
The amenities mentioned here are just a small sample of what our community will offer in the near future, with construction already underway. Stop by for a model home tour to learn more about becoming a resident! Please contact our team.
Colorado is as known for its wildlife as its craft beer and altitude; and while there may be no lions or tigers, there are plenty of bears and other majestic creatures roaming the plains and mountain sides.
If you’re a newcomer to the Centennial State, experiencing the Rocky Mountains starts with understanding the local animals and coexisting with a variety of creatures. Learning about them all certainly takes some time (Colorado is home to nearly 1,000 species), so let’s start with five of the most renowned:
The American Bison
Thanks to conservation efforts, the American bison is easily spotted in Colorado if you know the hoofed hotspots (such as Genesee Park, where you can often see them while driving on I-70). These animals can weigh more than 2,500 pounds and reach heights of 6.5 feet, making them the largest land animal native to North America.
Bison are inquisitive and may approach people because of curiosity, but don’t mistake this for friendliness! These beasts are wild, unpredictable, and extremely fast when scared or angry; they can run up to 40 miles an hour. In other words, much faster than you!
Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep
No Colorado wildlife list is complete without mention of bighorn sheep, a species designated as the state animal in 1961. Known for their agility and grace, these animals are usually only found in rocky areas of the mountains; and are often seen climbing boulders and (seemingly) defying gravity.
The signature feature of bighorn sheep is, unsurprisingly, their big horns. Unlike antlered animals, these sheep do not shed their horns annually and they continue to grow. In fact, they can get so large that a pair of horns on a ram can weigh 30 pounds!
Black Bears
While it’s not impossible for a grizzly or brown bear to find its way into Colorado, most experts agree that black bears are likely the only bears in the region (although they can come in various shades of color). If you’re an avid hiker, mountain biker, or camper, there’s a good chance you’ll see one eventually. To be proactive, hike in groups, wear bells to warn bears that you’re approaching, and carry bear spray just in case.
In general, black bears aren’t interested in bothering people, although food makes them much more motivated and audacious. On the off chance one confronts you, talk in a normal voice, give the bear plenty of space and an escape route, wave your hands above your head, and back away while maintaining eye contact. Never run away or climb a tree; bears are far superior in these areas.
It’s often recommended to play dead if you’re attacked by a brown bear or a grizzly, yet black bears are different; if one charges you, fight back! Use rocks, sticks, water bottles, keys, or anything else as a weapon.
Mountain Lions
You can live for 100 years in Colorado and never see a mountain lion, but — chances are — several of them will see you! It’s not unheard of for one of these big cats to wander into the suburbs, even though you’re far more likely to see one if you’re in the foothills, woods, or mountains.
Mountain lion attacks are rare; they’re most likely to attack when they’re rabid, starving, or cornered. However, some mountain lions will go after cats or dogs, which means you should never take your pets (or small children) into areas with high cougar activity. Mountain lions may also attack if they are with their kittens; never approach a cub, no matter how cute they are.
If you’re ever approached by a mountain lion, use your coat or backpack to make yourself seem larger, yell, wave your arms, and throw whatever you can. If you have small kids or pets, pick them up and then return to a standing position. Back away slowly and give the cat space to leave. Do not run or turn away. Just as with a black bear, if a mountain lion attacks, fight back any way you can.
Coyotes
Coyotes are everywhere. They most often live on prairies, in forests, and in the mountains and foothills, but it’s common to see one running alongside a busy road or roaming the walking trails near residential neighborhoods.
It’s extremely rare for a coyote to pose a threat to people (and their small size makes it unlikely for them to do any serious harm even when they are aggressive). They may, however, pose a threat to pets. If you live near open space, never let your chihuahua or cat outside alone, especially at night. Coyotes are good jumpers and climbers, so fences don’t always deter them.
Even so, pets are not a main food group for coyotes. They are opportunistic hunters and far more likely to go after rabbits, birds, squirrels, mice, and easier-to-catch prey.
Living in Colorado means co-existing with wildlife. To do this seamlessly, keep these tips in mind and keep a camera in your car; you never know what you might see.

Outdoor games are one of the simplest and most affordable ways to spend time with family. From the tried-and-true favorites of tag and hide-and-seek to the sweat-inducing badminton and volleyball, there are all sorts of ways to have a blast on the backyard grass.
Now that we’ve officially entered spring and summer is around the corner, here are a few of our favorites:
Ladder Ball
Ladder ball can be played one-on-one or on teams of two. If you have a large family or friends visiting, you can set up a round-robin tournament so everyone has a chance to participate. The object of the game is to get your ball on one of the ladder’s rungs; the lowest rung is worth the most points, making it your ideal landing spot.
While the game comes with standard rules, it also allows for player autonomy and the freedom to make up rules while ignoring others. You can play up to as many points as you want and assign any point value to the rungs as long as you’re consistent throughout the game. It might be smart to make your throws worth five points and your opponents’ worth three, but they’ll probably catch onto that right away.
Croquet
Croquet is a summer staple that even young children can enjoy in the backyard. It’s a beloved game that goes back hundreds of years and was even an event in the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris. While croquet only made a single appearance at the Olympics, it picked a historic one: the 1900 games were the first to allow female athletes to compete. While there are different versions, golf croquet is played with a mallet and various colored balls with two, four, or six players. A course of seven hoops is set up, and on each turn the ball must be struck by the face of the mallet and make it through each hoop in a sequential order. The first player to run through all hoops wins.
Bocce Ball
Bocce ball is a simple game that makes it a good choice for families with young children. The object of the game is to throw the bocce ball closer to the target than your opponent. Points are awarded each round and the winning team must win by at least two.
Bocce ball is most often played on teams of two, but it can be played one-on-one or with up to eight people (four players per team). Flexibility with the number of players makes it the ideal game for all sorts of occasions, ranging from lazy Saturday afternoons to birthday party extravaganzas.
Four Square
A game that transports you back to the playgrounds of yore, four square is fun, active, simple, competitive, and requires little equipment and setup. As long as you have a rubber ball, a flat surface, and a piece of chalk to draw the boundaries, you’re ready to play for the coveted king spot.
One of the best aspects of four square is that it offers all kinds of variations, including:
• a pirate version where players must close one eye
• a spinning version where players must spin around after making contact with the ball
• an airball version where players must jump each time they hit the ball
• a flamingo version where players must stand on one leg throughout the game
You can adopt an already-established variation or create your own.
The great outdoors is a wonderful place to spend time with family. Try one of the aforementioned games, embrace other traditional favorites, or invent one yourself. The sky is literally the limit.
Independence in Elizabeth, Colorado, offers beautiful new homes with views for miles. With a focus on sustainability and purposeful amenities, the growing community offers a one-of-a-kind way of life to this generation and beyond.
Hundreds of households in Superior and Louisville are still contending with the devastation of the Marshall Fire. If you’re thinking about purchasing a new home, there’s no question that you’ll want to ensure that your property is protected from fire and other natural disasters. A house is the largest asset for most individuals, so triple checking that safeguards are in place will serve you well in the event of the unexpected. Here, we share suggestions about how to protect your home and belongings from fire damage, so you’re as prepared as possible.
Contact Your Insurance Agent
Before you seal the deal on your brand-new home, you’ll need to provide your lender with proof of homeowners’ insurance. If you have an agent that you trust, now is the time to reach out and let them know that you’re starting the process of shopping for a property. During this consultation, your agent will walk you through the process of what you’ll need covered and answer any questions you may have. In addition to protecting the structure (which is required with a mortgage), you may be interested in supplemental coverage to include flood insurance and additional personal property limits.
Video Catalogue Your Belongings
You may not realize how valuable your personal belongings are until you look more closely. If personal items are included in your insurance policy, be sure to take a thorough walkthrough of everything you own. Although it’s important to write down the exact specifications of your valuables (such as brand, model, date purchased and serial number), it’s wise to record the inventory list room by room and back the video up to a secure location. In addition to the video recording, consider making an itemized spreadsheet that includes the nitty gritty details of each item. With the digital receipts of your home inventory, you’ll give yourself the best chance of full coverage in case of tragedy.
Prep Your Home
Although many wildfires start and spread quickly, there are several steps you can take to safeguard your home against fires. Always keep at least one fire extinguisher on hand, and make sure that it’s in good condition. Most fire extinguishers will last 10 years if properly stored. Be sure to follow safety guidelines for cooking and smoking, and have your smoke detectors inspected annually. Smoke alarms should be placed in each room and hallway on every floor within the home. For an additional level of protection, carbon monoxide detectors should be installed in each bedroom of the home. Keeping the yard tidy and free from debris and dead vegetation is also recommended to deter fires.
When you begin the process of searching for your dream home, protecting your new investment from fire is probably the last thing on your mind. However, preparation is key to ensuring that you’re doing everything you can to keep your future property safe from fire devastation. If you’re ready to find a new place to call home, we’d love to have you join the community at Independence. Top-tier home builders in Elizabeth, Colorado, have partnered with us to offer incredible floor plans that are ideal for every age and stage, and we’re excited to show you what we have available.

Colorado is among the most beautiful states in the nation, and many residents cherish the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors here. If you appreciate wide open spaces and starry skies, you’ll love our gorgeous new homes in Elizabeth, Colorado. Located in quiet Elbert County, but still close to Denver, the Independence Neighborhood is an excellent place for soaking up nature’s beauty. In addition to our extensive hike and bike trails, we also offer plenty of open spaces that are perfect for stargazing. Looking ahead, 2022 will be a fantastic year to view these upcoming astronomical events:
April 22-23: Lyrids Meteor Shower
On April 22, the Lyrids meteor shower will begin. This meteor shower has the potential to make for a great viewing experience, especially if you have the chance to watch from a dark location after midnight. Lyrid meteors often leave a bright trail of dust that glows for a few seconds after the meteor shoots through the sky.
May 6-7: Eta Aquarids Meteor Shower
If you miss the meteor shower in April, you’ll get another chance in May. From May 6-7, the Eta Aquarids meteor shower will be on display, and may produce up to 60 meteors per hour. Although its best activity will be seen from the Southern hemisphere, the dark skies of a waxing crescent moon will still offer an incredible show in the Northern hemisphere.
May 16: Total Lunar Eclipse
A total lunar eclipse is a sight to behold, and one will be visible on May 16 at roughly 7:30pm MST. A total lunar eclipse only happens when the moon passes through the Earth’s shadow. As a total lunar eclipse occurs, the moon will gradually darken and take on a rusty or red hue.
July 13: Supermoon
2022 will have three supermoons, one of which occurs on July 13. Supermoons are the result of the full moon phase coinciding with the moon orbiting in its closest position to Earth. When the full moon is located closer to our planet, its face looks larger and brighter. Head outside at 12:38pm MST, you won’t be disappointed!
August 27: Mercury at Greatest Eastern Elongation
On August 27, Mercury will reach its greatest eastern elongation (27.3 degrees from the sun). When Mercury is in this position, it’s easiest to view from Earth. A telescope isn’t necessary–just look for the planet in the western sky as sunset approaches.
December 13-14: Geminids Meteor Shower
Although there will be several minor meteor showers this year, they pale in comparison to the Geminidis meteor shower. This is widely considered to be the most awe-inspiring shower, with up to 120 multicolored meteors per hour at peak activity. Even though the light from the waning gibbous moon will block many of the meteors, others will be so bright and abundant that a dazzling show is still likely.
If you appreciate the tranquility that stargazing provides, you’ll love the abundance of opportunities to marvel at the planetary events occurring this year. Stargazing is best enjoyed in a dark environment that’s not polluted by city lights, and the open space at Independence Neighborhood (or the comfort of your own backyard) is ideal. Our new homes in Elizabeth, Colorado, offer modern living with small-town charm surrounded by nature. To learn more about what makes our community exceptional, please contact our team.

Grilling isn’t just a summer pastime–with the right tricks of the trade, you can fire up your grill all year long. Whether you’re craving an expertly-seasoned rack of ribs or are looking to mix up your winter menu with some healthy options, the tips we share here will help you create delicious grilled dishes this winter. Outdoor activities like grilling are even more enjoyable when you have a backyard with a view, and our new homes in Elizabeth, Colorado, offer everything you need to fully experience and enjoy the great outdoors.
Keep Safety in Mind
Safety is the number one component to consider before you start the grill. Throughout all seasons, you’ll want to make sure that the grill is placed in a safe area at least 10 feet away from fences and all other flammables. Be sure to store fuel in a safe, dry place and stock up on additional fuel to account for lower efficiency in cold weather. When it comes to keeping the outdoor chef safe, reduce the possibility of accidents by wearing fitted clothing that can’t get tangled in the grill. If you’re grilling in snowy weather, place an anti-slip mat on the surface where you’ll stand.
Prepare For Extra Warmup Time
If you’re grilling for a crowd, avoid a time crunch by factoring in extra warmup time. During the warmer months, your grill may only need about 10 – 15 minutes to warm up. When you’re grilling in chilly temperatures, it’s possible for warmup times to take longer than usual.
Switch Up the Menu
To avoid running outside to baste every few minutes (and allowing heat to escape in the process), consider switching up the menu for the winter. Grilled pizza is an excellent choice for wintertime and could become a seasonal favorite (DIY pizza parties, anyone?). Likewise, lower-maintenance options such as fish or ribeye will cook quickly and require little attention while they’re on the grill.
If you’re looking forward to getting outside and grilling this winter, the tips mentioned here will help you make the most of the season. Although a gorgeous new home with a beautiful backyard isn’t required for great grilling, it’s definitely a perk. If you’ve been thinking about buying, you’ll love the benefits that come with our new homes in Elizabeth, Colorado. Located on 1,000 acres of a previous working ranch with more than 400 acres dedicated to trails, parks, and open space, our conservation community is perfect for those who enjoy the outdoors because it offers an abundance of opportunities to immerse yourself in nature.
