Rural Desert Outdoors Commuter Golf

Located about 15 miles west of Pueblo and 40 miles south of Colorado Springs, Pueblo West is a small desert community. This predominantly residential area feels rural with ranch-style homes, townhouses, and mid-rise apartments resting on sparse, large open plains.

The town is best known for its access to outdoor recreation. The Lake Pueblo State Park Desert borders the town to the south, an excellent natural area with 60 miles of shorelines, two marinas, a reservoir, campgrounds, an archery range, and more.

Hawk at Pueblo West, a lush golf course, anchors the town as most of Pueblo West’s parks, businesses, stores, and restaurants are near the green space. As a planned housing development, Pueblo West was designed to be secluded and rural, but Highway 50 allows residents to travel into Pueblo to enjoy the amenities that come along with living in a bigger city.
