Forest Lakes is a beautiful subdivision located in northern Colorado Springs.

Located just 5 minutes west of I-25 off Baptist road, this beautiful area features two lakes, parks, and a “base of the mountains” feel.  This development is currently a Classic Homes development. They are the only builder currently building there (changes are coming). This is a master-planned community.  The homes that have mountain views, views of open space, or back to the lakes carry a hefty premium price on them. 

The development has a typical, tightly-packed feeling with open space close by.  Even though it is located north, it is an easy commute on I-25, heading either north or south.  The area is a bit higher in elevation and does get a little more snow than the Springs, so there could be days with a later start to work or other activities.  This development is very close to shopping and some great hiking trails.
