Surrounded by the million acre Beartooth Wilderness and 4 million acre Yellowstone National Park Red Lodge, Montana is one of those rare gems of a Victorian-era mining town where Butch Cassidy
tried to rob the bank and Calamity Jane roamed the streets.

Unlike many Colorado resort towns that are several hours from Denver, Red Lodge is just a short drive away from the largest city in the State.
It is staggering to consider that well ove $75 million in new public facilities and development are going on all over town. There is also a new gourmet food and wine store, several new residential developments, and the ski area is spending millions on improvements
and upgrades following the purchase of the ski area and the golf course by JMA Ventures.

All of these new facilities are attracting both growth and interest from retirees and pre-retiring baby boomers. Want to know more about the area: Click Here!

The Spires at Red Lodge created the first livable, walkable community adding miles of trails that interconnect over 20 acres of parks. Full ADA and handicap accessibility are a first for any area neighborhood and eight different bodies of water traverse the development.

The visual element of the Spires is completely stunning with hundred mile views and the Beartooth mountains for 180 degrees. The views of the rock spires, Red Lodge Mountain ski resort, and even the Snowy mountains which are 100 miles away give you a sense of scope and scale like few other places in the world. It almost seems out of sorts that you could live in a place like this with these kind of views and still surf the web and be on city water.

For 2009 the Spires is launching the Spires cottage project comprised of energy-efficient cottages with sweeping mountain views and attached one car garages for under $200,000, less than the cost
of a postage stamp-sized piece of land in most Colorado or Utah resorts. The cottages were built to keep energy bills down and time spent on maintenance related activities to a minimum so you can go enjoy the world-class recreation that surrounds you.
