The Rayback is a mix of things - all awesome, super casual, and uber cool. It is a (1) food truck park, (2) beer garden, and (3) a live music venue. Any day of the week, find four different food truck options offering a mix of cuisines to choose from...a whole bunch'a local alcoholic beers and nonalcoholic kombucha on tap...and local singers/guitar players and the like on the stage in the evenings. With a mix of great indoor and outdoor seating, plus lawn games outside, its a GREAT venue for whatever mix you're traveling with...adults, kids, dogs, all are welcome and enjoy the Rayback.

You'll spot the painted grain silo when you're close to this "down-home tavern starring an ample selection of craft brews, pizzas, burgers & creative Creole chow". Always packed, the BBQ is top shelf, and some days you'll find (formal & informal) live music playing.

Insanely delicious classic Napoletana pizza in an elegantly casual setting - this is the authentic thing! The folks who run five-star rated, internationally acclaimed Frasca next door opened this pizza spot next door a few years back, and its incredible...but not for those looking for huge, cheap Jersey style slices. Fresh dough, incredible ingredients all around, even the pizza oven was imported from Naples. Highly recommend.

Another of Boulder's amazing breweries. In addition to plenty of beers to choose from for those who drink, its great for families too, with lawn games off the back deck, kombucha on tap, and amazing food from McDevitt Taco Supply.

Special spot with a funky old bar scene, ridiculously delicious food in the restaurant, and sometimes live music (call to inquire) to boot...make Gold Hill a destination for an evening. Enjoy the slow roll dirt-road experience as you drive up the hills into this old mining town and take in the scenery that feels like years ago. Start with drinks, and go on to dinner. Revel in the night sky before you return. Awesome.

Parks & Nature

Chautauqua is where you'll find the Flatirons included in most photos of Boulder...and a ton of other great trails to explore to boot! The Ranger Cottage there can guide you, depending on how you're feeling day-of. Interested in seeing a show while you're in town? See who's playing at the historic old barn-like venue.

Where locals go hiking when they've got time to spare or a mid-day meeting (walk & talk!). Easiest trail is the fire road up the middle of the valley; but each ridge has wonderful options too.

If you're going to have a car while here, Brainard Lake is amazing if you're looking to get into some GORGEOUS nature. From here at the house, you're much closer than you'd be in town to the Brainard Lake Recreation Area (part of the Indian Peaks Wilderness Area)...which is STUNNING, and certainly worth committing a day to visit. Just 18 miles deeper into the mountains (~41m drive, cause of the windy roads)...worth every second!

Entertainment & Activities

This amazing carousel is a memorial to fallen veterans, crafted over 26 years by a returned Vietnam Marine who hand-carved the animals. A must-do for grown folk and kiddos alike, its a magical place. Enjoy the $1 rides and the Wurlitzer, then hop next door to the train cars cafe for fresh mini-donuts, soft serve or hot chocolate in winter.

Everything Else

Wanting some day spa services while in town? jLounge is great for mani/pedis, facials, waxing services, and the like.
