Masonville balances wide-open foothill scenery with easy access to everyday conveniences, drawing people who want elbow room without giving up proximity to culture and commerce. Set along scenic byways west of Loveland and a straight shot from Fort Collins, it sits in Larimer County, where trailheads, reservoirs, and wildlife are part of the daily backdrop.
Outdoor time here is practically a lifestyle. Locals lace up for the switchbacks of Horsetooth Mountain Open Space, with its sweeping Front Range views and waterfall spur trails, managed by Larimer County’s park system. Mountain bikers and hikers roam the ridgeline at Devil’s Backbone Open Space, while paddlers and anglers favor the clear waters of Carter Lake. To the south, Bobcat Ridge Natural Area offers quiet valleys, historic homesteads, and abundant elk sightings. For bigger adventures, the Arapaho & Roosevelt National Forests open the door to miles of back roads, dispersed camping, and high-country trail networks. Families appreciate that Masonville addresses feed into Thompson School District, known for diverse program options, career pathways, and strong extracurriculars.
Weekends might mean a sunrise ride, a hardware run in town, and dinner in Loveland’s art district—then home to star-filled skies and the hush of pines.
