It appears Colorado’s second Buc-ee’s location is a no-go

If you were hoping Colorado would get it’s second Buc-ee’s convenience store, I hate to tell you, it’s likely not happening… At least not in the spot that the company really wanted it.
The developers who were proposing to build the second Buc-ee’s travel center in Colorado in Palmer Lake have withdrawn their application, the northern El Paso County town said in a statement Wednesday (Feb. 4).
Monument Ridge West LLC pulled its annexation request from Palmer Lake at the corner of Interstate 25 and County Line Road between Denver and Colorado Springs after a long political battle over the proposed store that started back in 2024.
It’s currently unclear whether the developers will pursue a new store location in the area.
