The Greens is a small luxury “sub-association” within the gated community of Kissing Camels Estates in northwest Colorado Springs. There are currently 29 homes and eight development lots within the Greens. Homes in the Greens are all located on either Hill Circle or Reserve Point and surround part of the Garden of the Gods golf course. The homes and lots have exceptional views of the Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak and the city of Colorado Springs.
Although most residents are now full time, the Greens originally was developed as a vacation community. Its developers described the environment as “living in a park” where the POA owns almost all land that is not actually under the homes’ footprints. Individual homeowners may, with permission, develop some landscaping but the POA provides all necessary lawncare and external building maintenance.
A board selected by the property owners in the Greens makes all administrative decisions. This board and the committees who assist it are made up entirely of Greens property owners.
At first blush the dues in the Greens may appear high, but if you compare our dues to the expense of maintaining a home of similar size in Colorado Springs you will discover the dues are actually a savings. In exchange for these dues, our residents receive the following services:
Lawn mowing, edging, watering, fertilizing and aerating
Seasonal plant removal and hedge trimming
Plant or turf replacement and replenishment as selected by the Landscape Committee
Biennial mulching
Semiannual roof inspection and maintenance
Snow removal from driveways and sidewalks
Insurance of all homes and fixtures excluding contents
Maintenance and light replacement for outside garage lights
Periodic cleaning of gutters and downspouts
Painting of homes’ exteriors
Emergency and other repairs approved by the Board and Architectural Control Committee
