Winter Park, CO: A Connected Mountain Living Community
Warm up to life in a neighborhood designed for connection—featuring lush landscaping, intimate pocket parks, and the best of the Rockies right outside your door.
What is a Connected Mountain Living Community?
"Connected mountain living" is more than just a tagline; it is a lifestyle philosophy. It means you don't have to choose between the solitude of the forest and the vibrancy of a town. At Sojourn at Idlewild, you are physically connected to the wilderness via the Idlewild Trail System and socially connected to the town via a short walk to Main Street. It is the perfect balance of remote tranquility and community accessibility.
Explore Our Winter Park Community
Sojourn at Idlewild is an up-and-coming community designed for modern mountain living. Surrounded by the stunning Arapahoe National Forest with easy access to downtown, residents here can work and learn remotely from the comfort of a mountain home, then explore their new backyard filled with stunning peaks and world-class fishing rivers. To foster a true sense of neighborhood, landscaping and pocket parks will be added in, creating shared green spaces where neighbors can gather, kids can play, and dogs can meet. Whether you are seeking a full-time residence or a vacation getaway, this is a place where you belong.
Living on Historic Ski Idlewild Road
Just off Main Street and next to Hideaway Park, Ski Idlewild Road is a recognizable piece of Winter Park’s history. Once the gateway to the memorable ski area, this road is now home to new possibilities.
Living here gives you a front-row seat to everything Downtown Winter Park has to offer, all in a location rich with local legacy. It is a Winter Park mountain community anchored by history but built for the future.
