Panoramic mountain views in Garden of the Gods
Natural attractions like the Garden of the Gods Nature Center and Pikes Peak draw outdoor enthusiasts to Pleasant Valley, where residents can live, play and work among these scenic landmarks. “The amenities and the natural beauty here combine to make this a pretty popular area,” says John Schinkel, a Realtor with RE/MAX who has been selling homes in Colorado Springs for over 20 years. As its name suggests, the neighborhood sits in a valley and boasts panoramic mountain views from nearly every corner. While residents in Pleasant Valley are truly immersed in nature, they’re also just five miles from the city center of Downtown Colorado Springs and enjoy easy access to major thoroughfares like Highway 24.
Garden of the Gods Park spans 100 acres
Residents are minutes from the Garden of the Gods, a public park known for its massive sandstone rock formations spanning over 100 acres of land. “It’s pretty quiet here and there’s tons of wildlife and nature, which is a big draw for people,” says Schinkel. The park offers rock climbing, guided horseback riding and over 20 miles of hiking trails weaving through the mountains and the forests of Pikes Peak. Residents also frequent Westmoor Park, which sits in the heart of the community and has a baseball field, basketball court, tennis court, and playground for kids to explore. In the northeastern corner of the neighborhood, the community gathers at the Valley Swim Club, a local swimming pool offering sand volleyball, swim teams and swimming lessons for kids.
