ADVENTuRE LIKE A LOCAL
We can’t wait to show you the best of what our little mountain town has to offer. Seasonally-inspired and locally-driven, these activities showcase the best of Colorado while serving as a guide for your ultimate adventure.
Local Shopping, Dining & Nightlife
Downtown Evergreen and Golden are known for their quaint shopping, dining, and fun mountain bars. Be sure to check out The Little Bear in Evergreen for live music! Or if you’re into the city bustle, drive 30 minutes to Denver for world-class dining and entertainment. Ask us if you need restaurant recommendations.
Red Rocks
Red Rocks Amphitheater is home to world-class concerts. Many musicians consider Red Rocks one of the best venues for performances. Built in 1924 by the Army Corps of Engineers, the amphitheater spans between two incredible rock formations and provides a spectacular setting for outdoor concerts.
Breweries
With more than 400 established breweries in Colorado and 100 set to open next year, Colorado’s craft brewing heritage and reputation as the country’s ground zero for small-batch artisan breweries make this the perfect vacation activity.
Evergreen Lake
Evergreen Lake is the heart of Evergreen! Boating, paddle-boarding and fishing in the summer and ice skating in the winter are just a few of the many lake activities. If you are a golfer, book a tee time at the Evergreen Golf Course located next to the lake.
Mount Evans
The road to Mount Evans is the highest paved road in North America! At 14,260 feet above sea level, the views from the top are spectacular. Visit the historic Echo Lake Lodge and Echo Lake before driving up to the summit.
Casinos & Gambling
Limited stakes gambling is only 15 minutes from Juniper Mountain House. Enjoy the towns of Black Hawk and Central City, which were originally built as mining towns in the 1800’s, but became gambling hot spots for locals and visitors alike.
