has anyone been to elitch gardens with younger kids (5-6)??? we use to live in colorado springs but never went (didn't have kids then!) anyway we go back for 2 weeks every summer and thought we'd venture out to denver this time. thoughts on the park good and bad would be appreciated. thanks.
The water park is the best part! It's fun. Not super clean (compared to Disneyland for example)... but worth a trip for the day. It's definitely small enough to do everything you want to in one day.
I grew up in Boulder and we were taken to Lakeside Park & Elitch Gardens at least twice a year ...... they're both wonderful - we never could decide which park we liked best, so we went to both (1 each time). Wonderful memories! ! ! !
I liked Lakeside better in the evening, because you could take boat rides at night - it was always SO beautiful to look back and see all the lights of the park and July 4th was just awesome - watching the fireworks from the boat!
Enjoy!
Yeah i live by it and it is really fun (THE WATER PARK) but it can get kind of crowded! the rides are really fun to but make sure to bring lots of sun screen... and lots of money ha ha kind of expensive
