About Howard

Set along the Arkansas River in southern Colorado, Howard offers a quiet, spread-out rural lifestyle with incredible views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Residents have direct access to San Isabel National Forest trails and great fishing right along the valley floor. US Route 50 runs straight through the area, making it an easy fifteen-minute drive into Salida for groceries and dining, while Cañon City sits about forty minutes to the east. For anyone shopping for extra acreage and open skies, it makes a peaceful, scenic home base.
