    Went to Rock Ledge Ranch this past weekend where there was an Art Festival taking place...lots of vendors with paintings, jewelry, arts & crafts, food, etc. I really didn't see any thing I needed. Even though some items were interesting, I'm more in the mode of getting rid of things than accumulating more. I did pick up some of my favorite fig balsamic vinegar though--so good. I was more interested in the ranch itself and those who are in character showing what life was like way back when (my stars are more for that). Have to come back again and take the time to enjoy it

    Perfect place to relax and have a picnic lunch

    History lovers will enjoy the step back in time while everyone will enjoy the beauty of this historic site. Don't forget to pack a picnic and get ready to relax in the peacefulness. Do not however go when you must pay. Staff is unfriendly and the feeling of mediocrity is definitely the undertone when dealing with them. Happy to not renew my membership.

    I really like Roch Ledge Ranch. I have been the their Indian Pow-Wow which was very fun and entaintaining. This place is comprised of many buildings which have been preserved for our benefit. They offer so many events during the year: sheep sheering competitions, Earth Day, Living History day, 4th of July, Vittles Fiddles and Vinos, and much much more. It's a very fun place in a most idyllic setting. Everyone living in this area should visit at least once. Fun for young and adult alike.

    The 4th of July celebration was incredible. Great live music, lots of family events. The actors playing Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt and General Palmer were outstanding. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this annual event to everyone

    Can you bring pets? If attending an event like an outdoor play, can you bring food and drink? Can you bring beer/wine in your picnic if allowed?

    Hi Carol! Thank you for your message. Yes, you can bring food and drinks. During big events, we do our best to have food vendors available. No beer or wine. We are a City of Colorado Springs Park, and alcoholic beverages are prohibited per city… Read more

Opened just 5 years ago,…read morethis building houses Olympic memorabilia, videos, photographs and a multitude of others items dating back several years documenting the great efforts and strides of both Olympic and Paralympic athletes who have competed. It offers interactive exhibits where visitors can visualize themselves participating in Olympic events. Various types of equipment utilized by Paralympic athletes was displayed, which was wonderful to see and truly heartwarming. Although, there were several exhibits, one in particular involving Bob Beamon, who in 1968, set an Olympic track & field record when he jumped 29 feet 2 1/2 inches. This record stands today and has yet to be broken by any Olympic athlete. Seeing the actual distance he covered was spectacular. Museum staff members are posted throughout the venue and are available to direct and answer questions. There is also a gift shop where visitors can purchase merchandise documenting their visit prior to leaving.

    Great local museum detailing the history and life of Colorado Springs and its environs…read more The museum has a variety of exhibits which tackle this from a variety of angles -- famous authors, local Native Americans, the Springs as a tuberculosis treatment center, pottery art, women's art, local tattoo art, the history of the city by decade, the history of a lost Latino neighborhood, etc. All is curated and presented in an interesting fashion -- there was some but very little of the "We don't have a lot to say about this person, so here's random biographical detail filler" sort of local museum content. The breadth of presentation extended to a potpourri "A-to-Z" exhibit with bits of info about a wide variety of topics (did you know that Lon Chaney was from Colorado Springs?). We easily spent three hours touring the exhibits, and I count the time well spent. The building is the former El Paso county courthouses and offices, and is truly lovely. One of the courtrooms has been preserved as an exhibit. Staff was friendly. Admission is free (though donations are encouraged).

    Amazing museum! They cover everything about Colorado Springs' history. I was a little worried…read morebecause the name didn't sound like it would tell the full history of Colorado Springs. I'm very glad it exceeded my expectations. The tour guide Leah was amazing and very helpful in facilitating the tour. She answered every question and encouraged us to press for more information on specific groups in the Springs. I am taking my kids there soon.

The cliff dwellings are incredible to see up close. They're modeled after ancient Ancestral Puebloan structures (often associated with Southwest tribes like the Navajo), and walking through them really gives you a sense of how people lived long ago. One thing that stood out to me was seeing how small the doorways and rooms were -- it really shows how much shorter people were back then! What I loved most was the self-guided audio tour you can use on your phone. As you walk through, you just select the number for each section and it explains the history and significance of that area. It was super informative and easy to follow, and I liked being able to go at my own pace. I love history, so being able to take my time and really listen made the experience even better. The gift shop is huge and honestly impressive. They had beautiful handmade items inspired by Native American craftsmanship, along with the usual souvenirs like stickers, books, and t-shirts. But they also had unique items like jewelry, coffee, honey, and so many locally inspired pieces. It's basically a full building packed with things to browse. Overall, I absolutely enjoyed this stop. It was educational, interesting, and worth the time. I would definitely come back -- and I might bring my husband next time when he has a day off. If you love history, this is a must-stop when you're in the area.

Next, you can pan for real gold in a special area outside. Then, you can look at old furnished rooms (behind glass) with antiques & pieces of history including the bed of the 21st President. Lastly, there is a short film about Colorado Springs history. This place would be a great, short excursion if you are visiting Colorado Springs.

    Ghost Town Museum - A Mix of Magic and Misses…read more There's definitely a lot to see here--every nook and cranny is packed with relics from Colorado's early days. It's a cool peek into how folks lived back then, and there's no shortage of vintage eye candy. Some items are clearly marked with "Do Not Touch" signs. One wasn't--so naturally, my curious son gave it a go to see how it worked. A staff member walked by and, instead of gently redirecting, chose to loudly scold him in front of others. It was uncomfortable and felt a little over the top for a kid just being curious. Not exactly a warm, educational moment. We moved on quickly--but not before one of us made sure to gently touch one more thing, for good measure. The shooting gallery was a hit with the kids. Change machines are a surprisingly nice convenience. Gold panning? Fun to try, but we struck out. Informative movie? Worth sitting for. Gift shop? Cool stuff, but brace for sticker shock. All in all, it's worth a stop if you're into Old West history, but a little more grace from staff would go a long way in keeping the experience fun--especially for families.
