I felt like I made some non-human friends that day, haha. Some of the birds did seem to look at me with "expectations" (i.e., where's our food, woman?!?!). Ok, just don't attack me, I have no food - please & thanks. The parking lot is terrible, though!!! You can barely back your car out of there if there was a bigger vehicle behind you!!! I have a wee little Honda Civic and I was worried! It made me wonder... WHO designed this parking lot? Which is not normally something I think or say to myself!

Tommy Davis park is a very large, beautiful, peaceful park near the DTC area of Greenwood Village…read more Large playgrounds and multiple green grassy areas that overlook the lake. I believe this park is the where the Greenwood Village trail system starts that interconnects many of the other parks that are in the area such as Orchard Hills park, Hoffman Park and Huntington Acres Park. There are also many forms of wildlife here, its nice to sit on a park bench that over looks the lake and just take in all the wonderous offerings that nature provides. Come and visit today!

I wandered in on a quiet afternoon, not expecting much, but it unfolded like a place built with…read moreheart. Rolling hills, little walking paths that twist past flowerbeds and art sculptures, and that massive playground that makes you wish you were nine again. Kids were climbing, parents were sipping coffee on benches, and ducks were waddling like they owned the pond. Honestly, they might. There's a peacefulness here that sneaks up on you--whether you're circling the water, catching the mountain view in the distance, or just lying in the grass while the breeze moves through the trees. It's calm without being dull. Designed but not overdone. The kind of park that locals love and visitors remember. Westlands doesn't shout--it just quietly reminds you what a good day feels like.

I feel a bit silly for having just recently discovered this park, but what an awesome find. How did…read moreI not realize this was here sooner? So there's an awesome petting zoo and train that you can pay to enjoy but the rest of the park is just as incredible. There's a shallow creek that runs the length of the park. It's honestly one of the best places for kids to just free play safely in the summer. Lots of great trees for parents to chill under while the kids enjoy the water. It's a perfect picnic spot for sure. Go make a day of it! There's also a traditional playground near the petting zoo and train station. My kids said the water is cold but on a hot day, it's the perfect activity. There are restrooms as well. There's some covered seating with picnic tables but it's just easier to bring a nice blanket and find a tree to camp under (or bring some outdoor chairs). We did the petting zoo recently too. It's $3 per person for the petting zoo for anyone over the age of 2. Same price for the train. You can do one and not the other. Tickets can be purchased on site or online. They give you one token per ticket for each activity. So you can only go through the petting zoo once and take the train once on a paid ticket. The petting zoo has cows, pigs, a duck, goats, alpacas, chickens, etc. It's fairly small, but a good way to expose city kids to sweet tempered farm animals. My kids loved the train! It does a nice big loop around the park. And the best part is the tunnel you go through at the end. The train is also beautiful - pretty green, shiny train. I would say the only down side is parking. I've ended up parking at the Pirates Cove area both times I've gone. There's simply not enough spots. Go early in the morning if you want to enjoy otherwise you might be completely out of luck.

Spread across 13.3 acres in the heart of Aurora's Rocky Ridge neighborhood , this park earns its reputation as one of the area's best-kept secrets. The grounds are super clean, the grassy areas are huge, and the park itself is just fantastic. Whether you show up with a soccer ball, a picnic blanket, or just a need to decompress, there's a corner of this park that fits. The playground is a standout creative equipment anchored by a dinosaur skeleton climbing structure , plus the usual swings, slides, and monkey bars. A rock wall sits just off to the side near the basketball court , which adds a nice layer for older kids who've outgrown the swings. Six basketball rims give you plenty of room to run a game , and the wide open fields handle everything from pickup soccer to kite flying to a lazy afternoon with a frisbee. When you're ready to eat, a reservable gazebo shelter with charcoal BBQ grills and picnic tables makes it easy to set up a proper outdoor gathering and restrooms are on-site, which is always a win. The varied terrain and xeriscape plantings give the park some visual interest beyond just flat lawn , and big shade trees scattered throughout make hot Colorado summer days genuinely comfortable. One practical note: there's no dedicated parking lot, so you'll be working with street parking in the surrounding neighborhood. Come a little early on weekends. Rocky Ridge is best for families with kids of all ages, dog owners, and anyone who wants a real neighborhood park experience not a sterile one. One local even got married here, and it's easy to see why: the scenery and open space lend themselves to moments worth remembering. If you live in Aurora and haven't made it out here yet, you're overdue. This one earns its place in the regular rotation.
