Three Days in Glenwood Springs Glenwooodsrings
Even though we live in Glenwooodsrings we spent some quality family time in town recently. The things we recommend the most to do if you are a tourist.
Lodging: We like the lodging that has cabins and is in the mountains typically. Our three favorite places:
- Glenwood Canyon Resort -Our favorite, on the Colorado River, outside of town, in the Glenwood Canyon, on the Bikepath, with Rafting on-site. We really like their cabins.
- Four Mile Creek Bed and Breakfast- Has awesome cabins and impressive art and antiques.
- Mitchell Creek Bed and Breakfast - 5 minutes to the North of town. New, nice, small.
- Hotels if you really want to stay closer to downtown inexpensively, or prefer a hotel: 1st Choice, Antlers, Best Value Inns and Suites
Activities
- Hike to Hanging Lake - about 3-4 hours roundtrip, beautiful lake and waterfalls.
- Ride the Glenwood Canyon Bikepath
- Go to the Glenwood Caverns and Adventure Park and take rides, eat, and act like tourists.
- Visit the Frontier Historical Museum
- Stop at Roaring Fork Anglers to get the scoop on fly-fishing, then, fish in the Roaring Fork or Colorado River
- Eat the Bayou Restraurant, (Cajun), Rivers Restaurant and the Glenwood Canyon Brewpub
