**Beautiful Setting, Terrible Experience**…read more Unfortunately, the beautiful setting of Fraser Valley Sports Complex is about the only positive thing I can say about our experience. The staff was unfriendly, argumentative, and far from welcoming. Rather than creating a positive environment for visiting teams and families, the interactions we had left us feeling frustrated and disappointed. To make matters worse, the behavior of the parents and other patrons was equally disappointing. The level of rudeness and disrespect was unlike what we've experienced at other sports facilities. We've visited plenty of sports complexes over the years, and while no facility is perfect, basic courtesy, professionalism, and sportsmanship should be expected. Sadly, those things seemed to be missing here. It's a shame because the location truly is beautiful, but a scenic backdrop doesn't make up for how people are treated. Overall, an incredibly disappointing experience.

We've been to Estes Park several times and I can't believe that I have not reviewed the Riverwalk…read morebefore because it is one of my favorite aspects of Estes. You pick up the walking path at the Visitors Center and it will take you along the river to downtown. Aling the way there are restaurants and lots of stores. The best part for me are the benches where I like to sit and listen to the river as I meditate. Along the walking path there are chimes for kids (and adults) to play. To me this is a must-do if you are in Estes. It is an about one mile walk that is thoroughly enjoyable. The beauty of the river makes the walk peaceful and serene.

Beautiful shady walk! Lots of pretty bridges to cross. Lots of benches next to creek for stopping…read moreto take in the view. I was able to breastfeed my son at one of the benches which was nice.

Stanley Park is a beautiful park in Estes Park that is located right next to Lake Estes. This place…read morehas all sorts of things to do. Stanley Park has bike paths, a skate park, playground, a few ballfields, tennis and pickleball courts and a dog park. On occasions, this park will host concerts and festivals. I was in town for a 5K run that was supposed to take place here. But the event was canceled due to some nearby wildfires that were causing smoke to fill the air. I ended up doing the run virtually on the sidewalk and enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding area. You can get a glimpse of the mountains from Rocky Mountain National Park in the background. The bike park course is open to the public and to non-mountain bikers too. The perimeter track can also be used for running, walking your dog and horseback riding. The paved part can also be used for bikes, skateboards and roller skates. If you don't have a bike, they have bike rentals nearby. After I finished my run, I spotted an Elk hanging around grazing the grass.

We stayed at this campground so we could break up our drive and do the whole route through the RMNP…read morestarting at Estes Park and could finish the drive back to the Denver area the next day. It is the only campground in the park that is on that side of the park by grand lake. We stayed at campground site 74. If you can choose your campsite I recommend that site. It is on the outer rim of the campgrounds and has a great view of the mountains. In the morning we were able to see and hear elk from the campsite! The downside was some of us drink the water from the water spigot at the campsite (not from the dish sink or bathroom sink) and got very sick while the others that did not were fine. Bring lots of your own water or boil your water just to be safe. Mostly tent campers at this location. No showers. We did not have cell service either here, but did not have cell service in the majority of the park. Lots of signs and talk about bears being here but we did not see any. Bring cash to buy firewood at the campground.

We love nature and this was a perfect spot to unwind and get back to that minus cell phones or…read moredigital interruptions. All of Colorado is beautiful but this was one of our favorite spots in both winter and spring but especially in summer because it's like being in a postcard.

So nice! Amazing staff, the owner was on sight and talked to us about our experience (which was…read moreawesome). Such a clean family friendly experience with music and water. The most remarkable part of the whole experience was how clean it was. And it's literaly on a mountain.

WOW! What a hidden gem! I haven't written a review in such a long time, but thought I'd give this…read moreplace a special shout out! We just happened to be driving up to Grand Lake to do a scenic drive around this gorgeous lake and came across this go karting place that my kids wanted to try out! It's a mom and pops kind of place, which we totally LOVE to support especially when it has a story w/ a BIG heart behind it. Check in was super easy, they give you tokens for go karting or bumper cars. Since it's a small place, the wait didn't take too long. Our family of 6 was able to rent 3 doubles and raced each other. The crisp fresh air and the view of mountains in the background made it even more special. The carts ran very smoothly, the exhaust weren't smoky like alot of places, and they even make it fun by pouring out buckets of water to make the grounds slippery during the ride.. felt like we were on Mario Karts. ;) For the bumper cars, I can tell the owner controlled some parts to make us spin just to give us a good laugh. I loved that! Just observing the place, I can tell there was so much labor of LOVE put into this wholesome fun fun fun place. There was a repair shop with a cart hanging waiting to be restored with lots of tools hanging - the owner must be a super handy man. This past weekend marked 20th year anniversary for Rocky Hi Speedway and we had the priviledge of meeting the owner! Such a friendly guy and my obervation were all correct. Sad to see this place up for sale since it hasn't gotten much foot traffic, but gathering from our convo I felt like he would love to keep it running. Therefore, I would like to put this place on the map and give a special shout out to the guy who put all his heart and time into building this place! Thank you for providing my family such a fun, safe and family friendly environment to enjoy the rockies! I really hope this place will stand for generations to come. We'll def be back!

What a fun experience! Traveling from out of state, I wanted to have a little fishing on my trip…read morewithout having to bring any gear and not having to purchase a CO Fishing License. They have everything you need and it's so easy to just walk out and start fishing some stocked rainbows. The staff were super friendly and helpful. My gf and I visited on a very cold, windy February morning when they opened. It ended up just being the two of us on the ice and this was our first experience ice fishing (and it won't be our last). We had an amazing time and spent an hour exploring the different holes in the ice. The fish were hungry and I realized there was an absolute MONSTER rainbow in there. I was trying so hard to catch it. I hooked him up 3 different times and each time, it broke the line (I'm thinking the knots tied weren't legit fisherman's knots but whatever). I was obsessed trying to catch that massive fish but didn't come away with it. Still caught a personal best at 16'' while my bucket of fish and gear was blowing across the ice due to the wind. Everything is catch and keep, no releasing, so all fish will be brought back into the hut to be prepared. They'll clean the fish for you and if you aren't ready to take any fish filets with you, they'll happily donate them to people in need. Highly recommend visiting for beginners. Also recommend for experienced anglers who want a relaxed, fun environment. I WILL BE BACK TO CATCH THAT MONSTER.

TROUT HAVEN IS THE DEFINITION OF A TOURIST TRAP!!!…read more I specifically asked an employee to explain the pricing before we started. I asked, "So we can donate the fish?" He said, "Correct." What he didn't explain is that you pay for EVERY fish caught--even the ones you "donate" back to them. We brought six kids. One son caught 17 fish by himself in 45 minutes. Staff watched us fill buckets without saying a word as our bill climbed to nearly $400. Using the word "donate" is INTENTIONALLY MISLEADING. You're not donating anything--you're buying fish and giving them back to the business. In my opinion, this pricing model is PREDATORY and relies on tourists and families not understanding the rules until they're standing at the register. If your kids have the (virtually guaranteed) experience of catching (likely multiple) fish, prepare to pay dearly for it.

Nice walking area around a babbling brook. Lots of trees and shade…read more Pedestrian bridges connect free parking conveniently located near downtown to the opposite bank. Trash and recycling bins. Good place to sit and relax on the benches after a long drive.
