Went here on 12/11/24. First time here. We live in Denver so we were looking for 'museums'…read moreoutside the city. And we love going to Fort Collins for other stuff. They have a good size Kid Zone. Then they have the history of Fort Collins. Then, I believe, they have a rotating exhibit. At the time was all about Skin. On humans and animals. It was fascinating. Then the best part was the music area. So much interaction! It was great! Definitely recommend. Will definitely be here again.

This place is great! I completely forgot about a Groupon I…read morehad purchased a while back and we were able to use it just in time. Even without it though, it's a great price for what you get! There is so much to do and explore here! The music section is definitely a favorite as you get to test out so many instruments! Everything was well maintained (minus one or two exhibits that weren't functioning at the time). The toddler area is great for the little ones to be separate. Personally, I was absolutely stoked for the shadow wall - it's just a fun/silly thing to do. When we ventured upstairs we didn't realize there was a theater until a staff member asked if we were there to see the show. Since we had to get going, I asked if I could peak in real quick to check it out and he was totally fine with it. It looks so cool! We will definitely be back to catch a show in the future.

Fort Collins is a 10/10 for me. This is place I've visited almost every year since being a kid, and…read moreit continues to pull me towards it. Not only is this town big on their breweries (there are seriously so many unique, tasty ones here! Tour them! Try them all!), they have a ton of places for outdoor adventures. Horsetooth Reservoir is RIGHT there, and throughout the entire town there are separate trails that cross with other trails. My personal favorite is the Spring Creek Trail. Perfect for bike riding, running, or walking. There are volleyball and tennis courts along the trail, along with picnic spots, grills, community centers. If I lived here, I'd be biking everywhere. You could easily never need a car here. There are also very close options for river rafting, and kayaking (Which we've done in previous visits). Fort Collins has a perfect small-college-town vibe, and I would have LOVED to go to CSU. The downtown area is so walkable, and the food is amazing, the cafes are adorable, the art is fun. As soon as you set foot in FoCo, you can feel how much locals love their town. This place is an utter gem, and so close to my heart.

We arrived shortly after it opened and it wasn't overly crowded. Was a beautiful day out and there was plenty to see! My son was excited about the ladybugs he saw too. Staff was nice and the little gift shop was cool too. Bathrooms are clean as well. Totally worth a visit if you're in the Fort Collins area!

Went into the butterfly pavilion and didn't see a whole lot of butterflies. It's a much smaller version of the one in Broomfield.

Impress your date or your out-of-town guests by taking them to the Colorado Continental Divide…read morelandmark. You may have heard it one too many times, or not at all, but the Colorado Continental Divide means that on the east of the Continental Divide all the rivers flow toward the Atlantic Ocean, and on the west of the divide the rivers flows toward the Pacific Ocean. In Colorado, residents are not as familiar with this thing called water, so this fact to us is not only interesting, but a moment to make us feel smart... And offer you one of those facts that you are sure to hear on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" The divide is a fun visit any time of the year, but it is at almost 12,000 feet, so if your guest or date is already feeling ill, dizzy, sleepy or grumpy, and it is not from you, then it might not be good to surprise them up past here which is above tree-line. When you get up to the monument, you can take a walk along a trail that looks like it goes on-and-on forever, but this is high mountain hiking, so don't expect there to be many tree stumps to take a seat on... And in the summer, or any season for that matter, storms can roll in faster then you can roll your Spanish rrrr's , so only hike if you are prepared. Note: The hike is not a loop.... If I am correct, it is about 3 miles long... But if you are new to hiking, keep an eye on where you started and head back after a little while to avoid rolling down the mountain and having to explain to people that you thought you were on a survivor game show. (Note: If you are on a date, do not tell you her that you are on a survivor game show and you have to pretend like this is your last day on earth... That might seem like a good pick up line , but trust me, when you are dehydrated and sun scorched, you wont be getting any high mountain booty any time soon, so take my advice and bring extra water and energy food.) * Star one for water that flows ** Way up there star two is for the high altitude and treeless mountain tops *** Look at me now star three is for perfect picture opportunity ****Isn't this elevation romantic star four is for a creative date idea or not so romantic out-of-town guest site ***** Don't forget to breath star five is for a long hike that is a great stretch during long car rides

We were in Ft. Collins, just walking around Old Town, and saw this place. Once I established that…read morekids can go in, my son joined me downstairs. He noted the newish air hockey table and large selection of pinball options. To my great surprise, my favorite pinball machine of all time is here. It's from the 90s and isn't seen much nowadays. Then, I noted the beer list. More quality/local brews and less swill than in similar arcades in the Denver area. Nicely done. Air hockey delivered with strong jets and a long play time. Kicker: It was only 50 cents. There's no card to buy to put money on first for "convenience." I got a replay on that pinball game on the first try. High score. I appreciate that quarters are the way here. No tokens to be left over and wasted or require a trip back to use. I appreciate that Street Figher II costs but a quarter. The only negative I have is that, like at Denver arcades, the buttons on this game are beaten down and don't respond quickly, at times not at all. Overall, this was an upgrade for us versus our usual spots down South and it'll be on my mind next time I'm in Ft. Fun.
