LOCAL EVENTS & ATTRACTIONS
Use The Fir House as a home-base to see the region or as a private retreat where you can fill your day with the peace and quiet of the mountains. From here you can visit the wonderfully quaint historical towns in the area, many within an hour drive; visit the shops and galleries in Evergreen; take the walking tour around Evergreen Lake or walk, hike or bike on the paths and trails of the several Jeffco Open Space Parks that are within 15 minutes of the house. Fish at Evergreen Lake and Chatfield Reservoir, or travel to Grand Lake, a 2 hour drive deeper into the mountains. Be sure to visit the art and history museums in Denver and the many attractions of the LoDo district for a taste of the local Denver beers, wines and foods.
