The Red Rocks Wildlife Sanctuary, known as the Homestead property, is now owned by Pomeroy Lodging, A Canadian hotel company and they are NOT a member of the Roxborough Park Foundation. This spectacular property sits on 35 acres of wild land and is surrounded by Arrowhead Golf Course, (an Arcis Golf property based out of Texas). In the fall of 2021, Pomeroy Lodging, A Canadian hotel company, in conjunction with the then owners, began the Douglas County process of attempting to rezone this property from residential to commercial (club resort). If approved by the Douglas County Commissioners, Pomeroy plans to build a large Nordic Spa with hundreds of parking spots. If commercial use is not approved by the county, a Pomeroy has produced plans to build 6 custom homes and 31 multi-family units on on both the east and west sides of the parcel.

If there is any development of The Homestead parcel, we stand to lose what matters most, changing the ecological value of this wild and free habitat. Also, the red rocks on this parcel are the last remaining untouched example of the Ancestral Rockies and the heartbeat of the Roxborough Park neighborhood.

Since 2021, a dedicated team of volunteer homeowners have worked diligently to raise awareness to all homeowners, the Roxborough Park Foundation Homeowner’s Board, and other concerned parties of the potential for development of this unique piece of land that would harm and destroy the abundance of benefits it provides to the habitat and the community in which it resides.
