Finally! The summer heat has lifted, the leaves are dropping and the beloved Pumpkin Spice Latte is back! The autumn season is upon us in full force, and what better place to kick back and enjoy the scenery than the Colorado Rockies. There is something for everyone in Colorado this fall whether you a looking for family fun or a weekend outing with your buddies. Here are some great ideas from the Turner PR travel team to soak in the season this October:

Yogi Bear’s Jellystone of Estes – The Estes Park camp resort is hosting four Halloween-themed weekends in October within the “Haunted Forest” at Jellystone Park. Families are encouraged to bring costumes, trick-or-treat candy and camp site decorations for friendly interaction with other vacationing families. The themed weekends will include Candy Bar Bingo, Saturday night dance and participation in the camp resort’s famous “Haunted Hike.” Rates start at $41 for 2 people. Additional people over the age of 3 are $3.50 each.

The Stanley Hotel (Estes Park, CO) – As one of the most haunted hotels in the nation, the property is a haven for Hollywood haunts. In addition to serving as the inspiration for Stephen King’s “The Shining” during his stay in room 217, the property was also featured in several “Ghost Hunters” episodes. The Stanley even has its own on-staff paranormal investigator to monitor residual energy and serve as a concierge for the property’s permanent guests.

Adults Only – The autumn season tends to be a crowd favorite for spiced spirits and seasonal brews. Check out the honey-infused bourbon cocktail at The Brown Palace in downtown Denver or head up to the mountains to experience Park Hyatt Beaver Creek. The resort offers a delicious cocktail made with Hurradura Resposado, lemon, agave nectar and hot cider.

Key Museum at Baldpate Inn (open until mid Oct)– Named after the mystery novel “Seven Keys to Baldpate” by Earl Derr Biggers and home to the world’s largest key collection, the Baldpate Inn has a private key museum on property that features actual keys (more than 20,000 of them) from famous people and places including Frankenstein’s Castle.
