Must do in Denver - Lifesized Monopoly
DENVER rent is doubling in this area… But lucky it doesnt matter cause Mr. Monopoly is giving you $1,000,000 in monopoly money 💰to cover it! MONOPOLY LIFESIZED is a fun interactive game for you and your five friends to team up and try to win the most properties and money!
This game is 70 min of play time but feels like 5 with all the excitement from winning properties to escaping jail to trying to solve mind games!
I think this is so worth it that I've done it twice!!
Go book your next game night @denvercenter ! . . . . . .

Only 12 people have completed this puzzle!
After spending 2hrs trying to complete it I finally did it!
This museum is located in downtown and is the perfect activity to add to your day guide of Denver
Tickets cost $28 for adults
I ended up calling back later that day and the staff I talked to told me that she had only ever seen 12 people complete the puzzle so I took that as a win
Would you be able to solve this puzzle?

One of my new favorite sayings is to tell people “ to read a book “ but like if my friend is like no I haven’t seen that new show on peacock I would say read a book

Splatter Paint - for Locals
IS IT WORTH IT?!? I’m trying 20 overhyped places so you don’t have to!
This is a splatter room and painting class and I’m sure you have seen this experience everyone so I had to go try it
Honestly we had a blast we did the splatter which i think is more fun then a sit down class but it depends on the vibe you are looking for
The class was an hour and is located in park meadows mall! After your done painting and sipping on drinks you get to take your masterpiece home! this activity is perfect for a date night, birthday or just a fun night out with friends and so worth it!
This is @canvasandcocktails .

Spa services
Going on a reality show to find LOVE ….. Okay not actually but i gotta get into reality show shape if i even have a chance at being casted and this place is the perfect way to do #NovuskinPartner I went in for a noninvasive body procedure where radio frequency technology is used to generate heat and melt away fat, draining out through your lymphatic system I also got a facial that again used radio frequency to stimulate collagen and elastin production, and tighten the skin! You can do this on almost any body part that you feel like you need a little help getting rid of some of that stubborn fat the staff @novuskinmedspa was so nice and broke down how it would go i did get a couple little marks on the side of my hips so just make sure you tell the staff if you feel any discomfort I plan on getting 1 session a month until i have that reality show body! Use the code FIRST100 to receive $$ of your service of $250+! . . . . . . #denverblogger #coloradoblogger #denvercolorado #coloradocheck #thingstodoindenver #usatraveler #usatravels #travelblogger #usablogger #skin #skincare #skincareblogger"

Day in my life - visiting denver
SOMEONE STOLE MONEY FROM ME?!?
Day in my life as I just found out someone stole money from me 😐
I flew out to Denver just days after I found out that my old accountant was stealing money from me
Lucky this was for a partnership and to highlight tax season that just past I honestly learn a lot while I was filming after I went to The Moose to get some food and then worked in my hotel room
I worked a little bit outside on the patio at the Moose restaurant @moosedenver
They have daily HH from 4-6 where you can get a $4 well drink!
I tried Fernet for the first time shout out to the great bartender there! Then hit up @number38_colorado and @willcalldenver for some drinks with the girls!
Willcall has great drink deals/prices and Pizza!! After me and the girls went back to the hotel to eat pizza ,catch up and play games!
As for my taxes and money don’t even ask but on a unrelated note if you know a good accountant lmk 🫣
How is everyone feeling after tax season? Are we all meeting up for $4 wells at the Moose?!?

Pride Parade in Denver
Did I expect to see my grocery store at Denver Pride?
1000% yes as this is the third year I have walked with King soopers 🛒🌈 @mykingsoopers
King Soopers in Denver makes sure they are always showing up for LGBTQ+ communities in the city, and it was great to see.
This is what it looks like when a brands understands Pride is more than a parade — it’s a celebration of love! . . .

Winter Things
Best view and HOTEL in Denver!
No this is not the “best view of Denver” joke found on 16th street this is actually the best view of Denver and probably the best hotel too!
But dont take my word look at the facts
3+ restaurants on site to eat at including the new Moose sports bar in the market!
- just a couples from the train station stop making it easy to get to the airport
- chic modern rooms with great bathroom lighting for getting ready, reading lights in bed and a spacious layout!
- the best view of menver I mean Denver 😉 and the mountains!
- quite area so you can actually sleep in the city but some how only like 5 mins from downtown
Staycation? Visiting Denver for the weekend? You have to stay at the Source!

Just a little tip to know if you are flying into denver
Did you know if you fly into Denver Airport thru frontier airlines you now have to walk all the way to the normal gate area?
I flew in to gate 80 and honestly had to walk quiet a ways before getting into the actually airport
This includes walking directly off the plane to the ground then to the frontier terminal then to the normal terminal
So warning my budget friendly fliers you will be freezing when you get off the plane at denver airport . . . . . #usablogger #travelblogger #denverblogger #usatravels #coloradoblogger #usatraveler #denvercolorado #coloradocheck #thingstodoindenver #frontierairlines #airlines #denverairport #airport #solotravels"

Buc cee's Review
The Buc-ee’s review we have all be waiting for…..
Let me start by saying this is an experience it’s like a gift shop just for the gas station which I have never seen before
But I gotta say the food was pretty good I mean this is supposed to be a gas station/pit stop for travelers but the food was hot and actually had good flavor to it
I tried the brisket sandwich and the beaver chips both solid picks
Things I wouldn’t get cinnamon rolls (maybe better warm) and egg biscuit to me the egg to bread ratio was a little off but overall food was a 8/10
This is def something I would make the stop for if your headed that way but don’t go just for @bucees
With that said if I was on a road trip and saw a Buc-ee’s sign I would also be excited!
What else do I need to go try?!! .

Is it worth it?!? I’m trying 20 overhyped places so you don’t have to!
Overhyped? I don’t think so this place was exactly what all the videos show 10/10 food great staff , great drinks! It was foodies dream!
We started by getting some drinks which all tasted great and were so elaborate Then we got some apps which were melt in your mouth with bold flavors and great cooked food the coconut shrimp was one of my favorites
But I got to say the lamb dish we had for our entree topped the list for me! We ended up splitting a lot of it family style because the portions were very big and made for a great time to get to try everything

$20 brunch deals
$20 unlimited mimosas !!!
I was shocked when I found a restaurant that serves $20 unlimited mimosas as some bars downtown sell $20 drinks
not to mention at the Woods you can enjoy views of both the city and the mountains @thewoodsrestaurant
no one ever believes me, but I swear this is actually the best view in Denver
The brunch menu is served Saturdays and Sundays and offers traditional American breakfast items like burgers, eggs, Benedict, etc.
I got the salmon eggs Benedict this time, but would probably get a burger next time as I was drooling when this came to our table

Pasque
Girl dinner but done right
Pasque was the first downtown Denver restaurant to adopt an on-site biodigester.
Meaning every veggie peel, meat trim, or plate scrap gets composted @pasque_denver
The name “Pasque” comes from a native wildflower that blooms early in Colorado. The space brings that vibe to life: organic shapes, glowing layers of lighting, and art celebrating nature!
I ordered the bison entrée and the meatballs and had zero regrets.
One floor up: stunning architecture. One floor down: your new dinner spot!
Pasque, inside @populushotel_denver
Save this spot for your next Denver trip!

Viral Espresso Martini's
VIRAL espresso martini and if it worth it ?!?
You can find these elaborate drinks inside the money bar which is connect to the @weltonroom
Drinks cost $15 - $20 Espresso martini flight - $35
The space is quite space so a reservation is a must!
Yes the drinks are expensive but very good!
Personally I want to go back to try the flights but this is a place you go to start not to stay the whole night
What do you think of these drinks? And what would you try off the menu?

Brial Falls
The tallest free flowing waterfall in Colorado…
Is in Telluride its called Bridal Vail Falls!
This was a challenging hike as the day I hiked it was raining and a little slippery!
But so worth it! I always use @alltrails to track my hike and find the best trails! . . . . . . #denverblogger #coloradoblogger #denvercolorado #coloradocheck #thingstodoindenver #usatraveler #usatravels #travelblogger #usablogger"
Black Hawk
Is this the BEST in Denver?!? This was my first time in Blackhawk and I didn’t really know what it would be like but I was so impressed and I don’t even gamble
We started by checking into the Monarch Hotel and it feel like I step into a hotel on the strip! Check in was so easy and we immediately hit the pool which was so relaxing @monarchcasinoresortspa
At the pool you can get drink , bites or just relax in the hot tub After we went down to the Bistro Monarch which is currently up for the best of denver 2025
We ordered some tapas and some drinks which were half off all day on Wednesday! After we went over to the casino and won $80 it was the perfect way to end a little girls trip! Westwords Best of denver voting has started and the Bistro is nominated so go vote for your favorites and if you haven’t visited the monarch nows your chance!

Rafting in CO!
Don't listen to anyone else this is where you should go this summer
Rafting in browns canyon is a must! This is the perfect summer activity to do with you and your friends!
I recommend rafting 3-4 level rapids with performance tours as the guides are super fun
I have done a full and half day and both are equally fun
Thank to @performancetoursrafting and Arkansas River Outfitters Association as we had a blast!
the Arkansas River Outfitters Association (AROA) has consists of knowledgeable, experienced and certified professionals, dedicated to offering world-class outdoor recreation!

Where to stay
Freestanding tub in hotels now?!
Wait… when did hotels start casually putting freestanding tubs right in the room?!
Checked into The Source Hotel in Denver a couple weeks ago and was NOT ready for this!
You already know I spent my Saturday night here, poured a drink, and went full relax mode the second I saw this tub!
Not only is this place a vibe inside, but it’s got a rooftop restaurant with great views, 3+ amazing spots to eat in the marketplace downstairs, and it’s just a few blocks from the tram + 10 min to downtown.
If you’re looking for a stay that mixes city fun with total chill, add this to your Denver list.

Luxury camping experience!
This New spot just opened… It has a full movie theater, bathrooms, drinking water, cornhole, horseshoes, bikes for rent, drinking water, and so much more
Plus it’s next to Phil’s world and Mesa verse which is a verified dark sky meaning it’s perfect for star gazing!
I stayed the weekend here and had a great time watching movies while taking in the beautiful views you can see in the area!
And how could I forgot there is even WIFI This is the @ramble.camp at Mesa Verde national park!
Would you do this kind of camping?!? . . . . . . . #denverblogger #coloradoblogger #denvercolorado #coloradocheck #thingstodoindenver #usatraveler #usatravels #travelblogger #usablogger"
Love is blind hotel in Denver? - My favorite hotel

The first carbon positive hotel
At @populushotel_denver in Denver, every booking helps plant more trees, offsets carbon, and supports a zero-waste mission—all without compromising on the good stuff.
Architectural eye candy 😏
Pasque on the ground floor @pasque_denver
Refillable everything
One Night = One Tree
The hotel’s goal is to plant 55,000 trees by the end of 2025.
They have already planted 34,000+ trees!
Staying here = traveling better, without even trying.
Welcome to the new standard for staycations
