Local Attractions

Our town is a hub for outdoor adventure. Chill in a cafe, feast in any of the fantastic food spots, and gear up for fun! Go for a drive, hike a trail, or cast a line in Lake Estes. Have a beverage on a patio with million dollar views. Drive a golf ball down the fairway with the mountains in the distance, enjoy the outdoor adventure park with the family, or play a round of putt-putt. Great big slides to race down and then go challenge someone to a friendly race in a go-cart. Bumper boats are a sure way to cool off in those hot summer months. In the off-season, the 9-hole course (our back yard) closes for the Elk Rut—this is where the elk graze in late fall!
