Growth is inevitable in the valley and I would rather see it run by the state park service than get abused by rationalization. I was there recently to update my hunting and fishing licenses and was impressed by the professionalism. Abby was kind, knowledgeable, and thorough during the process, Thank you Abby! The information center and store is the best I have seen in the entire state. No question I will be coming here for years to come!

There are lots of climbing options, from the fish sculptures to the log maze to the tall climber with a slide. If you've got a bicycle, there's a little offroad bike park with bumps and jumps. Good swings, a few other play features; shaded picnic benches. The bathroom was clean and appreciated. Nice to have water fountain and bottle filler too! While we were there, a small storm passed with some showers and tiny hail; we took shelter under the nearby bridge and washed the river burble by for a few minutes. Would gladly stop here again!

Trail & Experience: Hanging Lake Trail is absolutely…read morebeautiful! It's definitely an uphill challenge, but so worth it. The trail is easier to go down than up, but the workout is worth every step for the stunning views at the top. Atmosphere : Going around sunrise is perfect. The sun isn't beating down on you. Plus the whole area feels peaceful and refreshing. The lake itself is stunning and truly worth the hike. Service: Rangers were super nice and helpful. Parking is easy to find, and GPS takes you directly there. You do need a permit $12 per person and timeslots fill up quickly, especially early in the morning, so plan ahead. Tips : Dogs are not allowed. Go early for cooler temps and smaller crowds. Bring water and good shoes the uphill is a workout! If you're in Glenwood, this hike is a must!

Lots of other people also didn't seem to care or be aware of other people's presence. The general demographic here was definitely not my scene. Though middle aged to older population seemed kind and genuine. Drink prices are to be expected but food trucks are a little overpriced. Recommend finding food and a spot to sit earlier in the evening--lines for food are crazy near and after sunset. Expect to stand in line for 15+ minutes. Concert opener and headliners were pretty good considering technical difficulties. Employees were stationed at all trash receptors to ensure trash, food and recycling were allocated into the correct bins--that was neat to see! I hadn't ever experienced that.

There's a gazebo. No restrooms. --------------------------------------------------­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­----------------------- Complete review: The park sits on an one block parcel on Main Street in between Aspen and Garmisch streets. It features an iconic gazebo, a bust of a Nobel Prize laureate, and notably has no restrooms at all (except during special events: porta-johns and janes). The grass is green and the people are friendly. There is a good coffee shop -- if you're into that -- a few steps away; there is a church -- if you're in need of that -- a block away; and, nice people everywhere. Everywhere. In terms of my specific first-hand experiences here, we were here for a special event. There were plenty of well-serviced porta-johns and janes and hand-washing stations. I found the water fountains (or bubblers, if you're from Boston) and made use of them. It rained a lil', I think. It was beautiful. --------------------------------------------------­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­----------------------- Rating: Four-stars, "Yay! I'm a fan."

My husband and I just stayed two nights in the caboose for our anniversary. First impressions the caboose is adorable, but smells like the inside of a bong. Absolutely overwhelmingly rank. We opened all the doors and windows and used most of a bottle of febreeze we found under the sink to make it slightly more tolerable. Then when we pulled open the murphy bed we found someone else's dirty underwear. We let the attendant know, he apologized and told us he'd let his manager know and we should hear from her the next day. We watched him write a note for her. Heard absolutely nothing. No follow up whatsoever. We talked to another employee when we were checking out to let him know we left a pile of someone else's dirty laundry on the stoop and his response was "f***, I keep telling those guys they have to clean in there." Seriously not impressed for a $500 stay. On top of that the provided linens are one thin blanket, threadbare sheets and the saddest pillows you've ever slept on. I get that it's a rustic setting, but that's no excuse for a dirty, smelly room and cheapskate bedding. It was just gross.

Atmosphere: Strawberry Hot Springs is one of my favorite hot…read morespring spots to relax. The atmosphere is so calm and peaceful. You can really let go of all your stress as soon as you get there. They have about four hot pools and a cold plunge. The cold plunge is freezing at first but it actually feels amazing after being in the hot water for a while. I've visited in both fall and winter, and each season is stunning. Kids are welcome during the day. Which makes it great for a family visit. At night, clothing is optional during certain hours, so just check ahead if that's not your thing. Service: The staff is really laid-back and friendly. They check bags for food because chipmunks will try to sneak to your bag and steal your snacks. The bathrooms are always clean and well-maintained. Everyone makes the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. Cost & Reservations: If you drive yourself and there's no snow, admission is $20 cash per person. If it's snowy, there's a shuttle from Steamboat Springs for about $50, which includes admission. Visits are two-hour reservations, you can book on their website. Payment is cash only in person, so make sure to bring some. Tips: Keep snacks in your car to avoid the chipmunks, bring a towel and something warm to wear after your soak, and enjoy!
