Lyons River District — Lyons, Colorado Neighborhood Guide

Serving Boulder County

The Lyons River District wraps around the St. Vrain River corridor south of downtown, anchored by the town's biggest parks — Bohn Park with its sports fields and the riverside LaVern M. Johnson Park. The 2013 flood reshaped this part of town, with the community buying out many damaged properties and converting them to open space, which gives the district a more open, park-like rhythm than a traditional street grid. Remaining homes range from riverfront cottages and ranches to newer flood-resilient rebuilds, many with creek views and direct access to the St. Vrain trail network. The district is the center of Lyons' outdoor life: fishing, tubing, riverside concerts, and youth sports all happen within walking distance. Downtown's Main Street is minutes away, making the River District the best address for buyers who want the St. Vrain as their backyard.

The Lyons River District is the park-and-river neighborhood south of downtown, where homes sit beside the St. Vrain River, Bohn Park, and LaVern M. Johnson Park with post-flood open space shaping the streetscape.
