Why Crystal Park Is One of the Front Range's Hidden Gems

Crystal Park is a gated mountain community of roughly 2,000 acres in the foothills southwest of Manitou Springs, at the base of Pikes Peak. It offers the privacy and scenery of true mountain living with services and amenities that are rare to find outside the city.

Community Amenities

Crystal Park HOA dues give residents access to a long list of amenities:

  • Community swimming pool that is heated during the summer season

  • Stocked trout lake for fishing close to home

  • Clubhouse for community gatherings

  • Tennis and pickleball courts

  • Basketball and volleyball courts

  • Parks, a playground, and a sledding hill

  • Miles of private roads and scenic trails for hiking and exploring

Community Services and Peace of Mind

Mountain living often means handling everything yourself. Crystal Park is different. The community provides support that is hard to find in the foothills:

  • Year-round road maintenance and snow removal handled by the community maintenance team

  • Volunteer fire department and EMTs based in the community

  • Helipad on property for emergency response

  • Trash service included in HOA dues

HOA dues are about $250 per month and cover gated security, snow removal, and trash service, along with access to the clubhouse, pool, tennis courts, lake, parks, and trails.

Outdoor Recreation in Every Season

Crystal Park puts outdoor adventure right outside your front door:

  • Spring and summer: Hike the community trails, swim in the pool, play tennis or pickleball, and fish the stocked lake.

  • Fall: Watch the aspens turn gold across the hillsides.

  • Winter: Enjoy snowy views from the warmth of the wood stove, or take the sledding hill.

  • All year: See deer and other wildlife, and enjoy dark night skies away from city lights.

You are also a short drive from Manitou Springs' shops and restaurants, the trails around Pikes Peak, and everything Colorado Springs has to offer. The Treasure Davis Team's Colorado Springs Relocation Guide is a helpful resource if you are moving to the area.
