Known as one of Denver’s best neighborhoods, Washington Park is named for its expansive city park offering various opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Take advantage of the boat rentals on Smith Lake or the bike rentals nearby at Washington Park. A playground, recreation center, jogging trails, athletic fields and courts, a community garden, and open lawns are all available to residents of this quaint neighborhood.
Washington Park boasts luscious lawns, tree-lined streets, and many craftsman style homes, making this a beautiful, inviting neighborhood. Families appreciate the charming environment of Washington Park and the excellent public schools like South High School. A smaller neighborhood park, Veterans Park, is just south of the school, known for its community center and athletic fields. Residents who commute to and from Washington Park have easy access to Interstate 25 and Highway 2, and Downtown Denver is a quick four miles northwest of town.
Washington Park is located south of the Cherry Creek Shopping Center and the Denver Country Club, and just north of the University of Denver. Though the neighborhood is mainly park land and residential streets, Washington Park hosts a few local restaurants of its own. Check out Washington Park Grille or Bronnie Brae Ice Cream after you find your perfect rental in this Denver suburb.

I LOVE living in Wash Park. This offers a residential feel with a short commute to downtown. Additionally, being on the south end of the city, I am closer to the mountains than if I lived in RiNo or the Highlands. Rent is more affordable in this area as well.

The Wash Park neighborhood is a lovely place to live in. It is a very green neighborhood and is great for families. The park is a great places to for more athletic people to train or for families to have picnics or gatherings. The public high school in the area - South High School - is a great choice to send your kids as it has a diverse and inclusive community. Gaylord St. and University Blvd. have an array of shops and restaurants that are locally run and good quality. Overall, Wash Park is an ideal neighborhood for people to raise their families.
