The Meadows HOA Rules

Hi all! Can anyone link me to the HOA rules at the meadows for both MCA and MNC? We are considering buying in the neighborhood, but

  1. We have dogs that like to bark (typically they are indoors but if I have a toddler throwing a tantrum, sometimes it can be a bit before I get them back inside)

  2. My mother will be living with us and I know there are rules about parking out front but not sure if either HOA has any leniency?

Either way it would be good to see the full list of rules and what all is covered by each HOA before buying a house in the community. Their website is hella confusing and I can’t find a direct link to their lists of rules. Please be kind. I’m from out of state and am just trying to find information.

Any good back doctors in Colorado Springs or castle rock?

My mom has osteoporosis and recently had a kyphoplasty. She fell the other day then yesterday was in so much pain wincing at the pain and barely able to move. We went to her back Dr and waited for two hours then he rushed us out the door and was very dismissive toward her. They ran an xray and it was fine and then he ordered an MRI but did not order it “STAT” so she would have to wait till next week. He just had no sense of urgency AT ALL while his patient he just performed surgery on is sitting there with 10/10 pain.

We need someone better, my mom deserves better. Pls if you have any recommendations let me know!

Voters guide on where candidates stand on mental health issues is now available

Colorado office seekers routinely make their stances known on issues like the economy, taxes, energy development and gun control. But as more people struggle with mental health challenges, state candidates should let voters know how they stand on mental health policy, too.

King Soopers on Promenade?

Why do they never open the entrance by the pharmacy in the morning? I always have to walk to the other entrance.

Also just curious if anyone else has had issues with their staff. They're pretty rude.

Premier Mental Health Healing Pathways

Be careful going to this place, the “provider”, Beverly has some severe mental health issues herself. She treats her patients poorly, over prescribes medication, fat shames, and generally is not a good provider or a good person. Please do not go here.

Best place to watch college football?

Looking to go to Castle Rock to meet friends and watch the Lsu game on Saturday evening. Obviously it's not a local team so anyone have any recommendations for places to go that might have multiple tvs to watch sports?

Last Castle Rock Comedy Show at Spotlight Theater is Sunday October 27 -- seeking new home

Castle Rock Comedy Show has been running for several years in different locations. We were downtown at Lost Coffee, and now at Spotlight Theater, but they are closing.

I'm the host and organizer. I fly in national acts like Alice Wetterlund from the TV show Resident Alien, or Jenny Zigrino who was in Bad Santa 2 with Billy Bob Thornton and Kathy Bates (Matlock!) and we have a lot of fun.

We are seeking a new home. If you know a business that might be interested please let me know. We would love to get back to Downtown CR.

If you share a good idea I will DM you a way to get discount tickets to our show on Oct 27.

We always give free tickets to military, first responders and sometimes to working locals if they ask nicely. Reach out for more info if the ticket price is a problem. Everybody deserves some laughs!

Best Italian deli sandwich in Castle Rock?

Got a hardcore craving for an Italian deli sandwich. Want to avoid chains so no snarfs, no capriottis, no jersey mikes, etc. Where can I find the best Italian deli sandwich in Castle Rock or within, like, 15 minutes of it?

Would love some recommendations with less crowds and maybe a little off the beaten path or down a 4wd road. I have Tacoma with lift. Thanks in advance.

Politics in This Sub

I'd like to make a post for your consideration.

Politics are allowed in this sub. Please use discretion. If you're posting political stuff every day, that's a bit much. Chill. Political content should be relevant to Castle Rock or Douglas County.

Be an adult. Don't go into comment sections rubbing your hands together and starting fights. You know who you are. Usually I let the downvote button do its thing, but shitty comments are definitely subject to removal.

I observe usernames. If you become a problem, you are subject to getting banned.

I have a day job and a life, but this place is monitored.

Looking to move to Castle Rock by 2026, recommendations?

Hi everyone! I'm sure this gets posted often so I apologize but my husband and I are looking to move to the Castle Rock area in about two years. We are in our mid/late 30s and have no kids yet but are trying. Any recommendations about neighborhoods or things to do would be really helpful! We're planning on heading up there early next year to start scouting areas, but as we have never actually been there we'd love some advice.

We are hoping to get a house with about an acre so Castle Rock proper is probably out of the budget, but the outskirts like Elizabeth are available but we're not sure what it would be like to live there. Thank you for any help!

Traditional Republicans of Douglas County: How concerned are you about the division within and the direction of your party? Do you still hold traditional values such as individual freedom, limited government, the rule of law, free enterprise, and a Constitutional government?

This is not a gotch-ya-like question. How do you reconcile your traditional views with the MAGA movement within your party?

Douglas County Sheriff Says He’s Tough on Crime But Endorses Trump (A Convicted Felon)

He says immigrants are “sex offenders”. While endorsing a candidate who is an adjucated rapist. He says “Donald J. Trump will bring law and order back to America”. How? He’s got more criminal trials of his own coming up.

Mod: I tried to use the least inflammatory language possible. But these are the facts. And this speech itself was inflammatory. Please leave this post up. I think the residents need to know what is being said to the nation and the world about our town.

Churches

I am moving myself and my family to Castle Rock in the upcoming weeks. My wife and I attend church, but our daughter is VERY active in her youth group (and VERY upset with me for moving her away from that!).

Any recommendations for churches with strong/close knit/active youth groups? She’s a sophomore in high school for reference and currently attends a nondenominational church.

Thank you for any direction you can point us in!
