    Mount Blue Sky will be closed to motorists and cyclists until Memorial Day Weekend in May 2026. When it reopens, make sure you have reservations to drive past the "welcome station." If you don't have reservations you will not be allowed to proceed.
    Mt. Blue Sky is a high altitude experience. Two alternative drives are 1) Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park. The road reaches an elevation of 12,183 feet (3,713 meters). Trail Ridge Road is usually open from Memorial Day Weekend to some time in October. Get reservations ahead of time at Recreation.gov. 2) Pikes Peak Tollroad. The summit of Pikes Peak is elevation 14,115 feet (4,302 meters). Reservations are required to drive on the road to the summit. To be guaranteed of reaching the summit (rather than a turn-around location below the summit) plan you trip for Memorial Day through the Fall season.

    The drive up the Byway is beautiful! Once there you can see mountain goats and bighorn sheep! It is an amazing view from the top!

    Very run down. Plenty of fun activities and rides for little kids, however, many were closed or didn't have enough staff to open. We paid $30 for adult passes however every large ride was not open for some reason. Kids loved it but it is more recumbent of an old county fair carnival with interesting customers rather than an amusement park. Would consider coming back but only purchasing passes for kids.

    I was so excited to visit this park but I ended up very dissatisfied. The rollercoasters and attractions where fun. Everything ok until I went to “the water park” The floor was extremely dirty, you couldn’t even walk barefoot without feeling the dirtiness. Women’s bathroom was a total mess, dirty diapers on the floor, bad smell, used bandages on the floor, gum, used toilet papers…I really hope they do something about this problem because it’s a nice place and it has a lot of potencial.

    We did the Novice, since it was the first time for some of us. It was challenging and fun. We made it out with lots of time to spare. We will definitely come back and try the next step up challenge.

    This escape room was very fun! Very immersive & creative. The puzzles were a lot of fun to get through, we did the egyptian tomb! Wyatt was very helpful & explained everything we needed to know before beginning. Would go back again.

    Kart racing at Podium delivers literally-heart-pounding excitement! It is very satisfying when you experiment with taking a turn differently and shave tenths off your lap time. I recommend going when it's not crowded. Races are longer on weekdays before 5:00p, for the same price. Yes, cart racing is expensive, but they have a variety of deals that can make it more affordable. On our last visit, we tried axe throwing - it's fun too! There are decent food and drink options here, so it's got everything you need to have a seriously fun day.

    I try to present the good and the bad, so having covered a lot of good: We have had encounters with a couple of rude employees (but far more of them have been nice). And they need to do a better job of keeping up the karts; there were seatbelt issues on several karts that I recently drove, and one kart had the front cowling pushed back so far that my fingers were squashed against the steering wheel in turns. Sometimes a kart didn't want to start. Etc. All signs of a lack of proper inspection and maintenance.

    So much fun! Very nice axe throwing facility. Our coach spent a lot of time with us showing us techniques and critiquing our throws. He taught us different games we could play and we had a blast! They had a nice selection of beer and the space was clean and large. Highly recommend!

    Almost beat the record for their hardest room! The room was well done and gave a good amount of challenge. Our host, Aaron, did a great job to get us ready for the room and was a great cheerleader when we got out

    Myself and my 3 kids (14,12,9) have done over 30 escape rooms and this was one of our favorites. There were mini puzzles (unique to this company) as well as the room puzzles. They were just different enough that we hadn't seen them before and kept everyone thinking. Love the ambiance of the house and Lucas was super friendly! Will definitely be back and would recommend to anyone.

    Very enjoyable time driving up a mountain canyon in a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder. I can't afford to own one, but it was great to be able to drive one for a life long memory.

    Kind driver, clean car, on time. Very careful with our suitcases and supplies, offered water and chargers, and a comfy safe drive! Good advice on the airport itself and the area as well.
