Things To Do
Buena Vista
Hiking: Midland trails are right in town and offer a variety of distances- the Bridge to Bridge is a nice stretch out. Check out Lost Lake up Cottonwood Pass- gorgeous, high alpine lake in just under 3 miles roundtrip. The Interlaken trail in Twin Lakes is beautiful; you can rent paddleboards and kayaks here, too. Food: The Buena Viking- great burgers. The Surf Hotel- fun for a nicer meal and great cocktails. Must get the carrot cake. House Rock Cafe- delicious and healthy food, good portions.
Salida
In Salida: Hiking: S mountain trails are all great- watch for rattlesnakes. Methodist mountain is great for hiking and mountain biking. Greens Creek is lovely, Rainbow trail is great and close to town. Food: Amica’s for pizza, Topo for coffee, The Fritz for something a little nicer. Chill for ice cream is a must. Drift In is a great riverside drink and snack spot.

At the top of Monarch Pass there’s a gondola you can take to a view point; there’s also a short hiking trail (30 minutes from Salida). Independent Whitewater offers half day and full day river adventures. Mountain bike or road bike offerings are plentiful! Check out https://salidamountaintrails.org/ Mount Princeton Hot Springs- the upper pools are open 9-5 and well worth a visit. Get a slushy and a water slide pass for an afternoon of fun! River pools are open 9a-9p.
Coming from Denver, CO?
Red Rocks isn’t far from the highway- worth driving up to see the view Stop at Coney Island in Bailey on your way for a hot dog! South Park is a quick detour and adorable high-mountain town. Driving i70? Stop in Leadville at the City on the Hill coffee shop, or El Mexicano taco truck (bring cash)
FAQs
Question
Will there be childcare available?
Answer
We want all of our favorite children to be at the ceremony and reception if they'd like to, but we understand if you'd like to enjoy the night solo, too. Let us know if you'd be interested in babysitting support and we'll look at options for babysitters locally.
Question
What shoes do I wear?
Answer
It's a working farm, so wear something you'll be comfortable in and won't mind getting some dirt on them.
Question
When should I come?
Answer
Come whenever you would like! Our hope is to have a weekend full of fun activities for everyone to enjoy, including hiking, biking, boating, and enjoying the hot springs.
