Fort Collins is recognized as one of America's top cities by numerous national publications. Established in nineteen and sixty nine, Crystal Lakes contains approximately 1,600 lots distributed over more than 4,800 acres surrounded by the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests at elevations ranging from 8,000 to 9,500 feet. The alpine setting of Crystal Lakes blends scenic river valleys with beautiful meadows of wildflowers and native grasses, spectacular rock formations and rugged mountainsides of pine, fir, and aspen to create a perfect environment for both vacation and full-time living. Year around accessibility is provided over well-maintained, all-weather roads.  More than 800 dwellings ranging from modest cabins to spacious mountain homes have been built to date. Many other property owners enjoy camping on their property under covenants which permit temporary shelters (trailers and RVs) for up to five months per year.  Privacy and seclusion have been preserved by lot sizes generally ranging from 1/2 to 10 acres. Approximately 10% of the land area within Crystal Lakes has been set aside as open space for the common enjoyment of property owners, guests and the abundant wildlife inhabiting the area.
