Moms Love Golden! Celebrate Mom in Charming Golden
Bring your mom to Golden for a day she’ll never forget. Only 20 minutes from downtown Denver, Golden feels a world away with its abundance of spring flowers, nearby mountains and small town charm. Whether you want to celebrate on Mother’s Day or visit any time in May, here are some fabulous ways to spend special time with Mom this Spring:
Stop to Smell the Flowers
Golden is ablaze with spring flowers. Downtown, the flower beds are bursting with color and along the trails, the native wildflowers are beginning to emerge. Plan a hike in the Foothills, window shop and stroll through downtown or explore the Clear Creek Trail. Pick up coffee at Humble House, Café 13, Pangea or Bean Foster’s to sip while you enjoy the blooms.
Yoga + Wellness
Get your yoga on in Golden, which is home to a thriving yoga community. Help mom unwind at one of Golden’s many yoga studios or check out Mother’s Day Yoga at The Golden Mill, pick up a certificate or book treatments at Woodhouse Day Spa, and make a date with mom to come back to Golden for a summer session of Baby Goat Yoga with the Golden Community Center in Lions Park (dates in June, July, August and September).
Eat + Drink
Treat her to a delicious brunch at one of Golden’s wonderful restaurants. Check out special Mother’s Day brunch offerings at Footprints at Fossil Trace, The Eddy Taproom & Hotel, The Golden Hotel, Table Mountain Inn Grill & Cantina, Abejas and more. Enjoy afternoon tea at Babe’s Tea Room or pick up a picnic from Cheese Ranch or D’Deli and spread out in Parfet Park or along Clear Creek. Enjoy Sangria Sunday at Deep Roots Winery in North Golden, sample craft cocktails at State 38 or visit one of Golden’s beloved craft breweries for a more kicked back time with Mom!
