Food scene

The "B's and G's" are some of the BEST biscuits and gravy we've ever had! And that's saying something because we're both from the south. They almost always have live music on the weekends. Fun spot to grab cocktails at!

Our favorite date spot in Palmer Lake! They always have the best craft beers. We've had almost everything on their menu and keep coming back for more. Go there on the weekends for live music in their huge back patio.

A very cozy date-night spot. Their chips, salsa, and guacamole are insanely addictive. Love the margaritas and special tequilas too!

Fun place, lots to chose from on their menu and tons on outdoor seating. We love the beef cheek tacos! They also rent kayaks and paddle boards.

A lovely spot for dinner. Our favorites are the classic spaghetti and meatballs and the greek pizza. Their salads are always incredibly fresh! Great wines too.

Sightseeing

It's a killer of a hike-- steep almost the whole way there. Make sure to pack an extra layer because the wind can get strong. A great place to take a picnic blanket and enjoy some peace and quiet. No dogs allowed.

Watch the train go by as you lay out by the lake, listening to the live music of the restaurants play in the background! There's a covered picnic area, playground, bathrooms, and water fountains.
