Things To Do
Downtown Littleton
Downtown Littleton has a ton of great restaurants, bars and historic sites. Check out spots like InTEA (Nicks favorite tea shop), Denver Beer Co or Inside Scoop ice cream!
The Hudson Gardens & Event Center
Although we may not have a lot in bloom at Hudson Gardens in November, this site connects to some beautiful trails, includes art sculptures and has some beautiful views. This site is FREE during the day and has a large parking lot if you wanted to walk through the site to get out to Little Dry Creek Trail (where Nick and Michelle often walk, bike and rollerblade).
Denver Botanic Gardens Chatfield Farms
This spot is beautiful year round. For a small entry fee, you can see several historic sites including their iconic farm house, beautiful views of the foothills and spend the day walking around the site.
Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre
This is such an iconic music venue with several trails on site as well as a museum and restaurant. Head over here any day before 3pm to check out the site; maybe even check out a concert if you have time!
Deer Creek Canyon Park
This is a great hiking spot if you want something with a bit of a challenge. Trails may have snow this time of year so be sure to check 'AllTrails' for condition details. They have several options ranging from 3-7 miles with a map, ample parking and restroom at the trailhead.
South Valley Park
There are several easy hiking loops in this location with some beautiful views of red rocks and the mountains. Hop on AllTrails to look at conditions and options beforehand.
Angelo's Taverna - Littleton
Italian and pizza with a great happy hour.
Andy's Frozen Custard
This spot has amazing custard and is a favorite sweet treat for Nick and Michelle. Try Nick's go to of a vanilla concrete with reeses cups and m&ms or Michelle's with a chocolate cone flipped in a cup.
Platte River Bar and Grill
This restaurant/bar is one of our favorites, especially when it's a warm day and the patio is open. They have great wings and sandwiches and often have live music. Stop by here for a local experience in a semi-dive style spot.
Breckenridge Brewery
This brewery is set in an old farmhouse along Little Dry Creek Trail. It's a great spot to head to for food and great beer!
Los Dos Potrillos Mexican Restaurant - Highlands Ranch
This Mexican restaurant is right next to one of the suggested hotels. They get lines out the door, so get there early, we recommend getting a skinny margarita and fajitas.
Bluffs Regional Park Trail
This is a pretty easy 2.7 mile hike located 10 minutes from the hotels. It’s got great views of Denver with ample parking.
