"My commute is quiet - I walk to work most of the year. Cars are not always mindful of pedestrians, but traffic is low and I only rarely have had issues in the last four years. "

"Great place to raise kids. People are friendly and have dogs to walk around the dog park lake. It is just really nice here. Quiet at night, sidewalks and lots of trails. Cool owls come and make baby owls on one side of the lake. Very cool"

"I've lived in Gunbarrel for about 3 years now. Lots of very friendly people, quiet, and still not too terribly removed from Boulder, so whatever ammenities aren't immediately available are still accessable. Very dog friendly too."

"Everyone is great and so many of my neighbors are also our friends. A lot of young families live here and it is a wonderful place to raise children. There are several trails close by and Boulder's best leash free dog walk around the Twin Lakes open space is right around the corner."

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe've been part of the Heatherwood family since the beginning of the 23/24 school year. We are impressed with the opportunities available to the students - academically, socially, and from the strong parent community. Our youngest (now 4) is in his 2nd year in the PreK/Enrichment programs and is thriving. I'm impressed with how prepared he will be, socially and academically, when he starts kindergarten next year, compared to my oldest, who came from a traditional daycare setting. Our oldest (now 6) is also thriving in 1st grade. After a rough start, transitioning into public school, I was impressed by how the teachers worked with the different student backgrounds (previous schools) and prepared them for the jump to 1st grade. Now in 1st grade, the academic focus and development I see week after week is solid. Both kids were also flagged for support with speech and could get an IEP for additional support. I would recommend Heatherwood to any family interested in a caring and academic public school environment.Parent Review1y ago40 Reviews - Boulder Jewish Day School
