Gourmet American fare & a vibrant happy hour draw locals to this rustic, loungey setting. We love going to this restaurant on nights we don’t have the kids.

“Enduring breakfast & lunch fixture dishing up hearty servings of American eats in a laid-back space.” This is our family's favorite place to eat out for breakfast. Great location in the heart of downtown.

“Greek, Mexican, Italian & American dishes in a casual, homey spot.” We know the owners and they are wonderful people. We love the food here too. They are only open for breakfast and lunch. Highly recommend!

If you love burgers, we highly recommend this place that is one of the closer restaurants to our neighborhood! My favorite is the “love stinks,” which features garlic-filled ingredients. I love getting the adult milkshakes to go with it when I’m really breaking all my normal diet rules. :) “At Crave a classic American meal becomes a gourmet experience.”

There’s an intimate feeling here, which we really appreciate on date nights. It feels special and the food is incredible. We love going here to celebrate special occasions. “Intimate, family-owned Italian restaurant featuring a wine list, patio & down-to-earth vibe.”

Sightseeing

A Castle Rock classic! Our kids love this hike for the views and climbing on all the rock formations at the top of the hike. The whole round-trip hike will take about an hour (if you’re going at a casual, sight-seeing pace).

This is an open space that runs right along the edge of our suburban community. The trails meander through the bluffs, where you'll often spot deer, birds and other wildlife. A great place for a morning or evening hike that is close to our place. The views are amazing!!!

Expansive park with many options for hiking trails, rock climbing walls, and wildlife viewing opportunities. We love taking the kids out for a day of hikes and spending time in nature.

On a bluff with steep, rock-capped cliffs overlooking Franktown, and the Cherry Creek Valley. The property features expansive views of the Rocky Mountains extending from Pikes Peak on the south to Longs Peak on the northwest. Beware of steep cliffs and rattlesnakes.

An adventurous trail system connects the meadow and the mesa. “Rocky Pass” is literally a trail within a vein of ever-changing cobblestone. Whereas, “Pleasant Pass” is a challenging yet pleasant alternative. The Upper Rim Loop takes people through a meadow and along a rocky outcrop.

We often go here to walk around. You can see all the way to Denver on a clear day. Set on a high mesa, this 1,000-acre park has a rustic shelter & views of canyons & roaming bison.
