Flying Horse isn't a neighborhood in the traditional sense. It's a master-planned resort community on the northern edge of Colorado Springs, anchored by The Club at Flying Horse and two private 18-hole championship golf courses. One course sits within the main community, and the second is in Flying Horse North, giving residents two distinct playing experiences without leaving the neighborhood.
Flying Horse has been growing since 2004 and now includes roughly 1,975 homes spread across distinct sections of the community, each with its own character. Villages like Torino and Molise are designed around paired patio homes and townhomes, ideal for buyers who want low-maintenance living with full access to the club amenities. Madonie and Palermo feature larger semi-custom single-family homes with more space and higher-end finishes. Toscano is a gated section within Flying Horse with some of the most private and sought-after lots in the entire community. The architecture throughout leans toward stucco-and-stone exteriors with tile roofs, and there's enough design consistency to keep things cohesive without every street looking the same. Whether you're looking at a low-maintenance patio home or a custom build in the gated section, The Johnson Team can help you find the right fit in Flying Horse.
One of the biggest reasons people choose Flying Horse is the resort-level access that comes with living here. The Club offers a European-style Athletic Club and Spa with indoor and outdoor pools, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, group classes, and a full-service spa. The Steakhouse at Flying Horse has earned a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence and offers one of the best fine dining experiences in Colorado Springs, with views of Pikes Peak and the golf course through floor-to-ceiling windows.
For families, the Club runs a Kids' Cabin program with activities and seasonal events. Pocket parks throughout the community, including Barefoot Park and Frog's Leap Park, add playgrounds, walking paths, and sports fields. It's a community that gives you a reason to stay close to home on the weekends.
Flying Horse North is located along Old Stagecoach Road, between Black Forest Road and Highway 83. This is where Flying Horse goes from luxury to estate-level living. Homesites in Flying Horse North range from 2.5 to over 5 acres, giving buyers the space and privacy that simply doesn't exist in the original community. Upon completion, Flying Horse North will include approximately 280 custom and semi-custom lots, a clubhouse, parks, open spaces, and walking trails.
The Phil Smith-designed golf course here plays through the Black Forest with fairways that wind between mature ponderosa pines and open meadow. It's a completely different feel from the Weiskopf course in the main community. Buyers in Flying Horse North can choose from a list of preferred builders or bring their own, making this one of the few true custom-build opportunities in the Colorado Springs luxury market.
