Colorado is known for its natural outdoor beauty and recreation in and around the Rockies. Whether you’re looking to escape the city and reconnect with nature, get active on a vacation skiing, hiking, or golfing, or if you’re looking for a relaxing retreat with a loved one, this state is full of hidden gems easily accessible by car from the Denver International Airport. Among the list for the top 9 places to sneak away to in Colorado this year, was our very own, Littleton.

Situated across three counties, this historic farm town offers no shortage of history, culture, and recreation to spend a wonderful weekend away from home. The charming downtown is a hub for shopping, dining, and personal care services such as salons and massage parlours. Whether you’re looking to let your creativity run wild at The Crazy Merchant or you want to pamper yourself at the Hand & Stone Massage & Facial Spa, there is something for everyone in this little downtown core. The town is also home to the Littleton Museum and Town Hall Arts Center where you can learn all about Littleton’s history and present. Of course, it wouldn’t be a visit to Colorado if it didn’t include an opportunity to connect with the outdoors. The Littleton Golf & Tennis Club hosts four golf courses with distinct terrains to suit your taste. Just steps from downtown, the WoodSpring Suites Littleton-South Denver is the perfect spot to rest your head after exploring all day.
