Live within a stones throw of a Steamboat icon; Fish Creek Falls, where you’ll hear the crash of snowmelt-fueled waters in spring and the bugle of elk herds in fall. The Fish Creek neighborhood is ideal for residents who want it all; access to hikes straight out the front door, great views and close proximity to downtown.

The area straddles Fish Creek Falls Road, which ascends into Fish Creek Canyon, one of the most photographed sights in Steamboat. The neighborhood offers a variety of housing options from clusters of condominium complexes and townhomes to larger dwellings and acres of open space. Homes in the upper elevation are a draw for those seeking bigger lots and privacy.

An integrated trail system that weaves its way past secluded cul-de-sacs and aspen groves connects residents to downtown, the canyon or the mountain. Panoramic views of the Yampa Valley unfold as the road ascends steeply before leveling out at Boulder Ridge into Elkins Meadows – a magnet for wildlife.

The neighborhood is close to all five schools; Strawberry Park Elementary, Soda Creek Elementary, Steamboat Springs Middle School, Steamboat Springs High School and Yampa Valley High School. Fish Creek Falls Road is on the free city bus route, which means if you walk downhill to town, you can hitch a ride home.
