Things To Do
Garden of the Gods Visitor & Nature Center
Even if you just drive through, it's worth it! Beautiful rock sculptures and beginner friendly trails. Be sure to get there early before everyone else, otherwise you'll wait in line!
Glen Eyrie Castle
Highly recommend a tour and a stop in the bookstore/coffee shop. The grounds are spectacular as well!
Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum
Fun look at the history of the city.
Manitou Springs
Fun mountain town with caves to tour, a tram up to Pikes Peak, fun shops, and yummy food!
Focus on the Family
Adventures in Odyssey fans? Head on over!
Palmer Park
Great hiking trails! Be sure to download all trails or pay attention to the trail markers. It's easy to get turned around.
Ute Valley Park
Slightly more challenging hike for anyone not from mountain altitude, but worth it for the views!
Pulpit Rock
Up for a challenge? The views from the hike are SPECTACULAR! You've just got to work to get there ;-)
Fox Run Regional Park
Great for a walk in the woods!
Poor Richard's Bookstore
LOVE a local bookstore.
Loyal Coffee
Meghan's favorite coffee shop! Seriously. The baristas recognize her.
Story Coffee Company
The CUTEST little coffee shop downtown! Meghan's fave before Loyal opened.
Building Three Coffee
Yummy local coffee shop! Meghan knows the owners, and they are the coolest people. There's also a great bakery and restaurant just down the hall!
Third Space Coffee
I know, I know. Another local coffee shop. They're just so good! Third Space is a fun vibe and also has great food!
Dutch Bros Coffee
You go for the experience. All their drinks are good, but their sodas are PERFECT for a summer day.
Chick-fil-A
In case you needed a quick bite...also, there's like 4 or 5 in town, so all my NC/SC friends who need their sweet tea fix should be good to go.
In-N-Out Burger
Since all the Californians were moving out, In n Out decided to come, too! Thank goodness...the experience, burgers, and shakes are SO fun.
Pho & Grill
Meghan and Daniel's fave Friday night date spot. If you don't know what to get, try P13 and the fried pork egg rolls.
Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar
Super fun spin on American food! Dog friendly, which is a blast.
ViewHouse Colorado Springs
Meghan's favorite restaurant. Literally everything there is delicious! The old fashioned with rhubarb bitters is the BEST, just in case :-)
