Search Limon Correctional Facility Offenders

Limon Correctional Facility is a Colorado state prison in Lincoln County, Colorado. To look up inmates at Limon Correctional Facility, use the state corrections locator rather than the Lincoln County Jail channels. The facility holds sentenced Colorado offenders, not people newly booked into county jail after local arrests. Prison visitation, mail, money, and custody rules follow CDOC procedures, so searches and contact steps should start with the statewide prison system.

Limon Correctional Facility Overview

Limon Correctional Facility, often shortened to LCF, is operated by the Colorado Department of Corrections. It is located on Highway 71 south of the town of Limon and about 80 miles east of Denver. The CDOC facility page lists Gilbert Caley as warden and identifies LCF as a Level IV prison with close, medium, minimum restricted, and minimum custody populations.

Limon Correctional Facility sits inside Lincoln County, but it is not the Lincoln County Jail. That distinction is essential. A person arrested in Lincoln County and waiting for bond or first appearance normally starts in the county jail in Hugo. Limon custody applies after a person is sentenced into CDOC custody. State prison searches use the CDOC Offender Search, not the sheriff phone line or local jail records request.

The facility page gives several physical details that make Limon distinct: 320 acres, 36 acres enclosed by a 4,000-foot double-perimeter fence, 13 buildings, 377,400 square feet, and six general-population living units. Units 1 and 2 house close custody. Units 3, 4, and 5 house medium custody general population. Units 4 and 6 are incentive units for eligible medium, minimum restricted, and minimum custody offenders.


Limon Correctional Facility Population

CDOC points readers to current population and capacity reports for Limon Correctional Facility, but the exact current Limon row was not text-extractable in the research pass. The facility page does provide custody mix detail: close custody 33.4 percent and medium or minimum restricted custody 66.5 percent. Those figures should be read as CDOC prison population context, not Lincoln County Jail population data.

Lookup Limon Correctional Facility Inmates

Use the CDOC Offender Search to find a sentenced Colorado prisoner at Limon Correctional Facility. CDOC's search fields include DOCNO, last name, first name, gender, and a required human verification prompt.

  1. Open CDOC Offender Search.
  2. Search by DOCNO when known, or enter last name and first name.
  3. Use gender only if it helps narrow a common name.
  4. Complete the verification prompt and submit the search.
  5. Confirm whether the listed facility is Limon Correctional Facility before using LCF visitation, mail, or money rules.

Limon Correctional Facility Contact

Use Limon Correctional Facility contacts for state prison questions, visiting appointment issues, facility mail instructions, and CDOC custody matters. Use the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office for local jail custody instead. CDOC statewide records, money, visitation, and inmate-contact rules may also apply, so confirm current requirements before sending funds, mail, or visiting applications.

Limon Prison Visit Rules

CDOC visitation rules are more detailed than county jail rules. Visitors and offenders must follow employee instructions, supervise minor children, and avoid exchanging objects except allowed vending-machine items. Dress rules prohibit exposed cleavage, back, or midriff, spaghetti straps, short skirts or pant legs, visible undergarments, sheer or torn clothing, and clothing that resembles offender attire. Shoes are required, and jewelry and head coverings are limited unless an accommodation applies.

CDOC video-visit rules also restrict conduct. Prohibited conduct includes criminal activity, driving, nudity, sexual behavior, weapons or drugs display, gang or security-threat-group display, unlawful activity, recording, filming, or livestreaming. Confirm the current CDOC rules before scheduling because statewide visitation policy can change.


Limon Facility Mail Money

CDOC statewide money rules apply at Limon Correctional Facility. Each incarcerated individual has an inmate account used for canteen items such as phone time, stamps, writing materials, food, clothing, and hygiene items. CDOC partners with JPay, Western Union, and GTL/ConnectNetwork for deposits. Money sent before 4:00 p.m. Mountain Time is generally available the next day, but CDOC advises allowing two to three days before a canteen order.

Limon Correctional Facility Programs

Limon's CDOC facility page identifies Unit 4 as an incentive unit connected to positive behavior and program participation. Unit 4 programming includes higher education, seminary, the Restoring Honor veterans' pod, and Correctional Industries. CDOC also notes educational and work opportunities for the offender population. These are prison programs for sentenced offenders, not county jail services.

CDOC statewide reentry and parole services may also apply as a person approaches release. Those statewide programs are not the same as Lincoln County Jail's Southern Health Partners medical and post-release support references. The correct agency depends on custody status: CDOC for state prison, sheriff for local jail.


Limon and Lincoln County Jail

Limon Correctional Facility and Lincoln County Jail are often confused because both are in Lincoln County. They serve different legal stages. The county jail handles local arrest, booking, bond, and pretrial or short local sentences. Limon handles sentenced state prison custody after court proceedings and CDOC classification.
