Tennyson and West Highlands area is a very cool area, maybe 15-20 mins to Red Rocks. Staying there at the end of July when we go out to see Darius Rucker. Several restaurants around there.

Bob's Atomic Burgers in Golden is a great lunch spot where you can sit outdoors and look directly at the Coors Brewery.

I've been to Denver and Red Rocks quite a bit, but last September was the first time we'd really done anything in and around Golden (which is the town closest to RR) and I really enjoyed it. We'd done Denver enough, so the change of pace with the classic small western town of Golden was a nice reprieve.

I love everything about Red Rocks. Who are you going to see?
