You can drive up to the gate and tell the folks you are having lunch at one of the restaurants. You can also walk around the lake and explore all the amenities. It's the only five star/five diamond hotel in the state.

You can take the train or drive up on your own. The drive is much shorter than taking the train and of course much cheaper. You have to abide by the train's schedule regarding how long you can stay on the mountain, also. It's a full afternoon trip, which ever way you go.

I like the small town of Idaho Springs and the fact it has affordable hotels and unique places to eat all in a small radius. The Indian Hot springs are indoors so you can go no matter the weather.

This has rich history and parking so you won't get a ticket! No small item for Manitou Springs. The tour is affordable and you can get a spot of tea afterwards.

Food scene
I have dined at Panino's for as long as it's been down the street from our home. The owners are local and the food is good and not too expensive. It's about 145 feet from our front door!

This is the oldest golf course in our state. It's only 7 minutes from my house and you can go just to the driving range for a few dollars a bucket of balls. You can use their golf clubs if you didn't bring your own! The drinks and food after wards are in a great restaurant where you can see the mountains and sit inside or outside. My family and I go just to do that!

It's a coffee shop, wine and beer bar as well as a great place to hear music. Check their calendar to see what unique music is scheduled. They serve in door and out door, allow your pet when outdoors. A limited but healthy menu is available. (also the owner used to live next door, say hi to Russ.)
