The Bear Valley Neighborhood

Developed in the 1950 and 1960s as Denver expanded westward, Bear Valley was one of Denver’s first suburban neighborhoods. Winding streets filled with quaint ranch and mid-century homes are generally well-maintained, and Bear Valley Park threads its way through the community, following the path of Bear Creek. Unsinkable” Molly Brown built her summer home here, now the Molly Brown Summer House Museum and Event Center. Plentiful suburban-style shopping and dining are nearby, and quick access to US 285 provides easy connection to the city center as well as the mountains.
