Cheesman Park
May 4, 2007 by Rick from Denver

Overall Rating: 10

• The Natural beauty of the park; others are usually very friendly.
• As a park in the middle of a large city, you'll occasionally have the weirdo factor.

“Chessman park is one of those great places to go on an afternoon walk or a picnic lunch. The shops on the side streets near the park allow you to get something to eat or drink too, so you can be spontaneous about it. The pavilion on the hill is magnificent and the botanic gardens are just around the corner. I used to go there with my girlfriend; and it is a nice place for couples to spend time together outside but right in the middle of the city.”

Ocean Journey Aquarium
Feb 12, 2007 by Dawn from Charlotte, NC

Overall Rating: 10

• Open late, discounted rates after 6pm, beautiful exhibits, nice gift shop.
• The restaurant is expensive, small parking fee.

“Last august my husband and I visited the downtown aquarium just before we moved from co back to NC. We'd heard great things about the newly renovated aquarium and decided to make it a mandatory stop before leaving the state. I'm so glad we did, as we both thoroughly enjoyed our day there! It was beautifully decorated, with a wide array of sealift as well as non-aquatic animals. One of the best features of the aquarium was the sting ray petting & feeding area. As a child, I had pet a few sting rays at sea world, but I¿d never had the opportunity to feed them. We were able to see the entire aquarium in about 3-4 hours, and then stopped off at the gift shop, which offered a variety of fairly priced items. I highly recommend this aquarium to anyone visiting the Denver area. I wish it was close enough for us to visit again!”

Brunswick Rocky Mountain Lanes
Oct 30, 2006 by Kathy from Lakewood

Overall Rating: 1

• New - state of the art ¿ clean.
• To loud - audio system over 150 db.

“I recently attended a 6 year olds B-day party, the party was mid-afternoon. The bowling alley in and of itself is spectacular! Unfortunately, minutes after arriving the audio / music system was turned on - It was so loud (well over 150 db) those we literally had to yell at people only standing 1' away to communicate. You could not even hear the blowing pins fall! One person asked an employee helping at the party if the music could be turned down and was told "That¿s as low as it goes". I then asked at the main counter and was told "I will try". The music was slightly turned down but not to a level you could hear the pins drop. It was maybe turned down to 150 db. It's been 72 hours since the party, my ears are still aching and I'm extremely concerned about the children being exposed to that level of noise in a family / public environment. Parents - consider taking ear muffs for your children if you go to Brunswick rocky mountain lanes.”

Garden of the Gods
Jul 12, 2006 by Beth from Belleville IL

Overall Rating: 9

• The whole park.
• We didn't have enough time to hike all the trails.

Six Flags Elitch Gardens
May 31, 2006 by Kelly from Westminster CO

Overall Rating: 3

• The weather in the evening was cool.
• The park was dirty and overpriced.

“Elitch's Six Flags was so much better as Elitch Gardens. It is now so overpriced that for a family of 5 to get in and spend the day, we go broke! Elitch's needs to drop the Six Flags title, the cheesy parades and shows and go back to "normal" Parking is now $15!! (Even Disney World is cheaper to park at.) And for us to get any dinner it would have cost us over $50. We had to survive on nachos and pretzels. We will stick with Water World season passes. While it costs more up front for 5 passes, we do not have to pay for parking, and we're welcome to bring our own food into the park. It will be a LONG time before we go back to SIX FLAGS Elitch Gardens.”

K O A Colarado Springs South Inc
May 13, 2006 by Gary

Overall Rating: 1

• Hard to find a positive when you are turned off before you arrive.
• Unhelpful and rude.

“Extremely unhelpful and uninformative when making the reservation. When I needed to cancel the reservation I was informed there was a $5 service fee. This fee was not explained when making the reservation. I would not have solidified the reservation if I new there was a cancellation fee. Lynn was kind enough to refund all my money, but was upset. He then hung up on me. My overall opinion of every employee at this facility is low because they all seem rude. I only stay at KOA's when we travel. This one will never make the list of places to stay.”

Bear Creek Lanes
Apr 5, 2006 by resident

Overall Rating: 6

• Equipment is great, lanes always taken care of.
• Expensive compared to others.

“Too expensive. Otherwise a good bowling alley”

Butterfly Pavilion and Insect Center
Apr 2, 2006 by Toby from Castle Rock

Overall Rating: 8

• Tons of fun and you can tell children love it.
• Small, would have liked more for the price.

“Walking in you are consumed by beautiful butterflies. Everywhere you turn colorful displays of nature. Children giggling with joy, "Mommy look, it's on me!" Small yes, but totally worth it.”

Silverscreen Cinema
Jun 11, 2005 by Wanda Stockli from Orlando, Florida

Overall Rating: 10

• The pilot was extremely skilled and the views of the Continental Divide were breathless.

“We took a balloon ride with Grand Adventure Balloon Tours. It was a dream come true! The Winter Park Fraser Valley is probably one of the most beautiful places in the world to fly! make your dreams a reality!”
