Things to do

Garden of the Gods Visitor and Nature Center

If you're looking for a moderate but beautiful hiking spot, you have to check out Garden of the Gods!

Loyal Coffee

Loyal is one of our favorite spots for coffee. The staff are incredibly kind and personal! Not to mention, this is also the place where we'd say... we fell in love.

Downtown Colorado Springs

Looking for some good food, shopping, or coffee? Check out our downtown! We'd highly recommend T-Byrds if you're into good queso and margaritas.

Palmer Lake Regional Recreation Area

Palmer Lake is just north of Colorado Springs, but it feels like a small, quaint mountain town. Speedtrap is a great cafe in town and right across the street from the lake!

Red Rocks Amphitheater

Historic concert venue, park and amphitheater in a spectacular setting, Red Rocks is Colorado's iconic entertainment venue.

Arcade Amusements Inc.

Check out this historic penny arcade in Manitou Springs just west of Downtown!

Wayfinder Coffee Co.

Dani and I went here almost everyday during 2020 because it was the only place that was still open. AMAZING COFFEE.

Broadmoor Hall

Totally free to come here and walk around the lake and look at the lights! So much fun!

Pulpit Rock Trail

Easy hike for a stellar view of pikes peak! I mean that's basically anywhere in COS.
