Berthoud, Colorado is a town near Fort Collins, Boulder, and Denver, some of the major cities in Colorado.
Just to the west of Berthoud is Rocky Mountain National Park which features 415 square miles of hiking and various mountains. These mountain ranges naturally create numerous lakes in the region including in Berthoud.
The Berthoud Reservoir is a hot spot for local fishermen and visitors walking the trail around the reservoir to admire the scenic mountains to the west.
The Town of Berthoud wanted a new restroom to service the reservoir as part of the Berthoud Reservoir Phase 1 improvements.
Romtec worked with Wenk Associates on the restroom drawings and specifications to be included in a larger bid project. Wenk Associates was the landscape architect on this project. Wenk Associates has referred projects to Romtec for many years. Wenk Associates is based out of Denver, Colorado and provides public and private landscapes for clients nationwide.
Wenk Associates and the Town of Berthoud liked the “Wade Creek (Estacada, OR)” project and modeled their seasonal restroom building to match the exterior look of the building with Romtec’s standard options.
The seasonal Romtec double unisex restroom serves a trailhead and parking area for this site.
