Ft Collins Family Event

This location was beautiful and perfect for family events in nearby Ft. Collins! We enjoyed the short drive on lovely country roads (main roads also just as convenient). After a day of “quality family time” we appreciated escaping to the quiet of this place, which had everything we could need. There were restaurants, shopping and hiking all available within a short drive. Wonderful!
