What's Happening

There’s something about summer in Colorado that invites us to live bigger — morning walks under bluebird skies, weekends on the water, impromptu backyard dinners that stretch into starlit nights. At Solstice™, the Stargaze Collection captures the essence of this season — and makes it easy to enjoy year-round. With thoughtfully designed floorplans, incredible community amenities, and a location that puts adventure at your doorstep, it’s no wonder these homes shine brightest in the summer months.

At Solstice™, outdoor living is a way of life. With scenic trails, community parks, and backyards designed for connection, summer days are meant to be spent outside. But nothing ruins a backyard gathering faster than a swarm of mosquitoes. Luckily, with a few smart strategies, you can keep your outdoor space at Solstice™ comfortable, stylish, and pest-free all season long.
