Areas of Attraction


Stetson Hills offers community parks featuring basketball courts, inline skating, picnic areas, skateboarding and playgrounds. Golfing is nearby at the Springs Ranch Golf Club an 18 hole course designed by Dick Phelps. Watch the fireworks at Security Service stadium during the 4th of July or every time the Sky Sox team hits a home run!  Enjoy a movie at the IMAX theatre, water fun at the fountain at the Main Street Towne Center and a quick bite at one of the fast food diners or sit down and relax at one of the many restaurants.

The Stetson Hills community has everything you can think of within the community plus numerous local area attractions.  Hike through the impressive rock formations at Garden of the Gods, ride the cog railway to the top of Pikes Peak, see the Silverback gorilla at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo. Outdoor sports are abundant in the region, from winter skiing in the mountains to whitewater rafting in the late spring and summer are a great way to take in some of Colorado’s famous scenery.
