Distances are straight-line, so the drive is longer. Internet and neighborhood figures describe the surrounding town — and the rent benchmark, wildfire rank, and tornado count the wider county — not this park’s own lots. The fair market rent is apartment-style rent (HUD’s area benchmark), not this park’s lot rent. Rent limits are not legal advice.

For residents
- Water billing: Colorado requires water billed to residents to be passed through at actual cost with no markup, using a consistent methodology, with the rate schedule and billing method disclosed to residents by January 31 each year (C.R.S. §38-12-212.4). Check the math free with the water submeter calculator.

How much is lot rent at Island Cove Park?

For scale: HUD's FY 2026 fair market rent for a 2-bedroom rental around La Plata County is $1,589/mo — that's apartment-style rent for the area, and lot rent (the ground under a home you own) usually runs well below it. If you run this park, you can add your real lot rent to this page for free.
How much can lot rent go up at Island Cove Park?
Colorado sets no cap on the amount of a lot-rent increase, but requires 60 days' written notice, allows only one increase per 12 months, and blocks an increase entirely if the park's state registration has lapsed, it owes unpaid penalties, it hasn't complied with a final agency order, or it missed a water-quality deadline (C.R.S. §38-12-204).
Where does the water at Island Cove Park come from?
Island Cove Park operates its own public water system, registered with the EPA as CO0134389. That means the park — not a city utility — supplies and is accountable for the water at each lot. You can look up its monitoring and compliance record by that id in the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Information System.
