Bear Creek Regional Park and other outdoor options

Though several Cheyenne Mountain trailheads surround your home, the 545-acre Bear Creek Regional Park is where most neighbors find their outdoor fun. There are plenty of trails to hike, bike and ride horseback, and dogs have their own 10-acre off-leash park with tree cover and watering holes. The pickleball court is the perfect place for friendly competition, and the playgrounds are popular with kids.

Spacious homes with a view

Homes start in the low $600,000s and exceed $3 million, with many built around the 1970s. Well-maintained single-family homes account for properties under $1 million, including up to five bedrooms and three bathrooms across 3,500 square feet. Custom-built mansions can span nearly 10,000 square feet with six bedrooms and six bathrooms. Despite the size, Skyway homes are known for large windows and wrap-around porches to enjoy a private Colorado Springs overlook. Don’t worry about obstructed views; every home sits on acreage and is staggered on various elevations.

Local options and retail shopping

Residents only have to drive about four miles to arrive at grocery stores and shopping centers. The first option is to go north into Old Colorado City, which has a Safeway and King Soopers along with several local restaurants, coffee shops and art galleries. Another option is to drive west through Broadmoor and into Ivywild, where you can choose between Natural Grocers and Sprouts Farmers Market at Creekwalk. In addition to groceries, this new shopping center has boutique gyms and popular chain restaurants. Closer to home, enjoy coffee or cocktails at Sacred Ground. This beloved neighborhood cafe has patio seating, string lights and ivy surrounding a historic building. Sacred Grounds is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, but they’re famous for homemade baked goods like Natasha’s warm honey cake. For an upscale experience, head to Dozo Sushi. Customers rave over the Japanese restaurant’s large sushi rolls, often plated with fruit and garnished with fresh flowers.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
