Larkspur Data
On northern slope of Pike National Forest, this rural area just south of Denver is a quiet nook in one of the state’s fastest growing counties. Neighborhoods and ranch properties intertwine to make up this changing community. While the town may be short on amenities for visitors, it’s long on views of the dramatic Front Range foothills.
Larkspur comes to life each summer (mid June through early August) during its annual Renaissance Festival. Wooded grounds are transformed into a 16th-century village, complete with costumed actors, period crafts and food. A family favorite, the festival’s live entertainment lineup includes jousting sessions, comedy works, magic shows and mimes.
Another attraction in Larkspur is the 18-hole Bear Dance Golf Course. The course includes a luxurious clubhouse, restaurant, lounge and pro shop. It’s also home to the impressive Colorado Professional Golf Association Historical Center, a collection of exhibits on the history of golf in the nation’s highest state. On the outskirts of Larkspur are a few lodging facilities at local ranch-style B&Bs. Outlet mall shopping is available just a few miles south at the Prime Outlet Mall in Castle Rock.
