Indigo Trails
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Indigo Trails first platted with Adams County in March 2001, and Meritage Homes built out the roughly 237 houses here over the next decade and a half using spray-foam insulation and smart irrigation systems standard for the builder's energy-efficient line. Homes range from about 1,500 to 3,500 finished square feet with basements included, spread across lots up to a half acre. Multiple neighborhood parks keep trail access close, and Barr Lake State Park sits a short drive east. Prairie Center Drive is about 3 minutes away, with I-76 and E-470 each roughly 5 minutes out.
