Food Scene
We like the Pumphouse because of it's selection of menu items and its consistency. It's also a microbrewery and they also have plenty of other microbrewery and beverage options. I get the chile relleno almost every time and their salmon fish and chips is note-worthy.

BBQ. Started by 2 unemployed Georgia boys, their first storefront was a small victorian house tucked away in a Longmont neighborhood. They now have 2 locations, The Shack in Longmont and The Smokehouse in Fredrick. Try to beans and sweet potato casserole for sure. You might have to ask secretly for the Burnt Ends, a brisket wonderland taste delight!

Hole-in-the-wall, carry away, lots of styrofoam but amazing bacon-wrapped hotdogs and tacos. Plenty of toppings available - fresh chopped onions, cilantro, jalapeños, salsas. I'd recommend carnitas but heck, get one of each.....

Great selection of mainstay beers and then they always have a few limited editions available. Every Saturday, they offer pours of their 22 oz. bomber specialty selections, often times of the barrel aged variety. I love the Raspberry Bandit, a raspberry brown, and the Widow Maker, an imperial oatmeal stout.

Parks & Nature
Take a short jaunt up to the high country to see a moose or 2, or maybe a pine marten. I recommend parking and getting out of the car for a hike around Long Lake. Take lots of water, wear sunscreen or a hat. Take something warm to wear as the weather changes quickly and it's usually at least 10+ degrees cooler up there than it is down here. Parking can be tricky so plan to make a few loops around the parking lot until something opens up. Entrance fee. Gates closed from approximately end of October - Memorial Day .

The majority of our guests visit Rocky Mountain National Park and enjoy the splendid vistas, hikes or maybe try your hand at fly fishing. If you're lucky, you may see elk, moose and maybe even a bear.

Nothing fancy but this historic hot springs is only an hour and a half away. The pool, at just under 100 degrees F so you can stay in for hours, is housed in a green house with massive tropical plants. They also offer separate men's and women's hot cave pools that are HOT! Makes for a nice day trip.
