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
