Stop by the Christmas market in Denver, it feels like you're making a stop in Germany with their Christmas shops, mulled wine and hot cocoa.
If you want to see beautiful lights to get yourself in the holiday spirit take a walk in downtown Denver. Union station not only gets visits from Santa each night but also has a standing cocktail bar to warm you up on your walk.
There are many breweries around Castle Rock and the surrounding cities! Get yourself a beer flight and some yummy appetizers to go with great conversation. One of our favorites is Breckenridge Brewery, get a Mountain Beach or Octoberfest, two of our favorite beers.
If you want to do some shopping (which I know all you girls do) there's a great mall right down the road from Castle Rock. Fun Fact: It is actually the largest mall in Colorado! And yummy sports bars nearby for you to have a beer and watch some football. Yes it has it all!
