The Bow Mar Neighborhood

Though small, this town is vibrant and lively. It’s a perfect example of Colorado’s charm, offering the small-town feel with country landscape while still keeping access to the city life.

Bow Mar prides itself in the community it had created, providing year-round activities, clubs, social and recreational activities, geared towards family-friendly fun. They have a high value for volunteering and community work.

Bow Mar’s beginning was agricultural, starting as a community of large farms that provided resources for Denver and Littleton. The town received its name from the combination of two nearby lakes, Bowles Lake and Marston Lake. Both lakes are named after two of the area’s first farmers. The neighborhood was mostly completed by 1950 and officially became Bow Mar in 1958.
