A Community Designed Around the Colorado Lifestyle
Flying Horse is an established master-planned community in northern Colorado Springs, recognized for its distinctive homes, mountain views, landscaped neighborhoods, and connection to Flying Horse Resort & Club. The community began taking shape in 2004 and has grown into a collection of residential villages ranging from patio homes and upscale single-family residences to custom estates and acreage properties in Flying Horse North.
At the center of the community is The Club at Flying Horse, with two championship golf courses, along with fitness, aquatics, racquet sports, spa services, dining, and social programming available through private membership. Flying Horse also benefits from its location near Highway 83, North Gate Boulevard, I-25, and the growing Northgate and InterQuest areas.
What makes Flying Horse especially distinctive is the combination of upper-end residential living and an established resort and golf environment without being removed from the conveniences of northern Colorado Springs. Continued development, including Flying Horse North, has also expanded the range of settings and homes available within the broader community.

Why We Recommend Flying Horse
Having watched northern Colorado Springs grow over the years, we think Flying Horse stands apart because it offers something many newer communities do not: an established upscale setting with mature neighborhoods, golf, dining, and amenities already woven into the community, while new homes and custom opportunities are still being added. Buyers can choose everything from newer ranch and two-story homes to golf-course properties and larger custom estates, without giving up convenient access to Northgate and I-25.
After more than 28 years in Colorado Springs real estate, one thing we would tell buyers is not to treat all of Flying Horse as the same. The original community has a more established, club-centered feel, while Flying Horse North offers larger lots, more space, and a distinctly different setting. We recommend spending time in both before deciding where to focus your home search. As a fourth-generation Colorado Springs native, that kind of firsthand comparison is exactly where we can help buyers understand not just which home they like, but which part of Flying Horse feels right for how they want to live.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do homes cost in Flying Horse, Colorado Springs?
Homes in Flying Horse generally start in the $700s and can reach well into the multimillion-dollar range, depending on the village, home style, lot size, views, and whether the property is custom-built. Buyers can browse current Flying Horse homes for sale to see active listings and pricing, and Park Avenue Properties can help compare available homes throughout Flying Horse and Flying Horse North.
What is the difference between Flying Horse and Flying Horse North?
Flying Horse North is a separate extension of the original Flying Horse community with a more spacious, custom-home setting. Flying Horse Main centers around the original resort and golf course near Highway 83 and North Gate Boulevard, while Flying Horse North lies farther north near Old Stagecoach Road and features acreage homesites, custom homes, and its own 18-hole golf course. Current Flying Horse North homesites are generally 2.5 acres or larger.
Do you have to join The Club at Flying Horse if you live in Flying Horse?
Club membership and homeownership in Flying Horse are not automatically the same thing. The Club at Flying Horse is a private club with golf, fitness, aquatics, dining, and other amenities, and membership terms can vary by property or new-home offering. For example, some current new homes and Flying Horse North homesites include specific membership initiation benefits. Buyers should verify exactly what applies to the property they are considering.
Does Flying Horse have an HOA or metro district?
Yes. Flying Horse has HOA and metro district considerations that buyers should review before purchasing. The community provides separate resources for the Flying Horse Homeowners Association and Flying Horse Metropolitan Districts, and costs or obligations can vary by property.
Park Avenue Properties can help buyers identify the applicable HOA and district information for a specific home and review those costs as part of the buying process.
What schools serve Flying Horse?
Flying Horse is served by Academy School District 20, with Discovery Canyon Campus located within the community. School assignments depend on the property’s address, so buyers should confirm current attendance boundaries directly with District 20 before purchasing.
Are there new construction homes in Flying Horse?
Yes. New construction is still available in select areas of Flying Horse, including opportunities from featured builders and custom-home options in Flying Horse North. Availability, builders, lots, and completion timelines change as development progresses, so buyers can review current Flying Horse homes for sale or work with Park Avenue Properties to compare new construction with resale options.
Are there homes with acreage in Flying Horse?
Yes, primarily in Flying Horse North, where homesites are generally 2.5 acres or larger. This part of the community offers a more spacious setting than Flying Horse Main, with custom homes and larger lots near the Flying Horse North golf course. Buyers looking specifically for acreage can work with Park Avenue Properties to identify properties that meet their lot-size and home requirements.
How does Flying Horse compare with nearby Northgate communities?
Flying Horse generally offers a more resort- and golf-oriented setting than many surrounding Northgate neighborhoods, with a larger concentration of upper-end, semi-custom, and custom homes. Nearby communities can offer different home prices, lot sizes, amenities, and locations, so Park Avenue Properties can help buyers compare Flying Horse with other northern Colorado Springs options based on what matters most to them.
