![]() And things like this happened to us every single time we went to this place. No sooner had we simply stood up and said hello before a security guard came over and yelled at us for "standing in a large intimidating group." We said we were waiting for another friend and he actually said that we'd have to sit back down on the bench or we'd have to leave. We waited on the bench and one other friend arrived. One incident I can recall very well is waiting with one friend for the others to show up. We were honestly the most straight edge, boring group around. It was a constant problem when I was in highschool, even though my group of friends and I were straight A students that never got into any sort of trouble. ![]() I stopped going here a few years ago because of security profiling people who don't dress "normal". Coors Field is a great baseball stadium and a must see for anyone visiting Denver.Īfter all the horrible experiences I've had here and recently hearing some things from others, I had to post this. There are homeless people but we never felt unsafe despite the late hour. We walked up and down the 16th street pedestrian mall before and after the game to our downtown hotel. We caught a street vendor outside but there is also a 7-Eleven store on Blake street towards downtown nearby. You can also bring in unopened non-alcoholic drinks which I would highly recommend. Some concession stands offer a kids meal for $5 which is great for families. The seats along the first base line receive quite a bit of evening sun but they also have views of the mountains. We sat in the lower part of the upper deck behind home plate and I thought they were great seats. Even though we were dressed out for the Cardinals we had fun interactions with Rockies fans and everyone seemed happy to be at the ballpark. A fan behind us brought a towel to dry off his seat from an earlier rain shower and he let us use it as well. The game day staff were extremely nice and helped assist us with questions. It is extremely well done and comes off as classic without being gimmicky. This was only my second time here but I really love this ballpark. This was Nolan Arenado’s first game back in Colorado so it was nice to see him receive a well deserved ovation. We came to the game on 7/1 to watch the Rockies play the St. I also often bring my Alaskan Malamute, as it’s a dog-friendly trail, and she loves it! You won’t regret visiting this spectacular Boulder landmark, the flat irons are truly a sight to see and worth the trip! The parking is good though, you just might have to walk a bit to get to the entrance if it’s a weekend-and most parking spaces nearby do make you pay. It can be pretty busy on weekends and holidays, so beware. Chautauqua is perfect for a family adventure, with friends, pretty much it’s perfect for any person who loves nature, mountains, and a great view! Sometimes I just grab a coffee and hike up the first part of the Chautauqua main trail. But if you are visiting the Boulder/Denver area, you should visit both, as they are both breathtaking and overall amazing places. ![]() I believe the statistic says that Chautauqua park is frequented more often than The Rocky Mountain National Park (which is about 40 min from Chautauqua in Estes). I LOVE CHAUTAUQUA PARK!!! I come to Chautauqua park a few times a month to either meet friends in the park or hike-it’s truly is a gorgeous place, and it always puts me in a good mood close to nature. One of the rangers was a recent transplant from Minnesota and we were struck by how sweet and helpful she was! Best to plan ahead and make sure you have everything so you don’t have to make any extra trips. The road to Bailey is long and very, very bumpy. You must wear life jackets on the lake, which is fine but an important detail! One of them had a little bit of room and it was hard to open because of how full it was. Thankfully the store does sell drinking water.Īlso, there were four huge dumpsters that were stuffed full with trash. There is no potable water, just a hand pump for water that you can boil for cooking and for washing dishes. We were quite far from the lake so one person would do drop off and drive the car back to the campsite and walk. There is no running water to wash your hands either. ![]() The restrooms were probably the worst at any campground I’ve been to that costs as much as Crystal Mountain Rec. We had site 69 and it was quite far from any restrooms. There are some things I wish I knew before we went. We also tied up two hammocks and there was plenty of shade which was amazing in the afternoon. Our campsite was huge! We were able to tie up our two dogs and they had plenty of room to wander around.
