The heat is on this Summer and what better way to cool down than to enjoy a dip in one of our many Colorado swimming holes! That crisp, clean, and refreshing Colorado water is a perfect way to chill out when the temperatures are rising. We've dipped our toes in the water and reviewed some of our favorite spots around Denver. Do you have any favorites that we missed?

Boulder Creek - Head over to Ebin G Fine Park in Boulder for a dip in the cool waters of the Boulder Creek that snakes its way through town. Bring a picnic to enjoy the riverside while you dip your feet in the chilly river. Watch tubers come floating by and fly fishermen reel in trout. It's a little piece of bliss on the river.

Among its many impacts, COVID-19 has had a pronounced effect on the housing market. Low home inventory and high buyer demand have driven home prices to an all-time high. This has given an unexpected financial boost to many homeowners. However, for some renters, rising home prices are making dreams of homeownership feel further out of reach. In fact, the gap between homeowners and renters has never been wider. If you own a home, you are absolutely loving this market and watching your home value increase by thousands of dollars a month. Renters are between a rock and a hard place, rising rents are hitting their pocketbook while rising home prices are making homeownership more and more unattainable.

Officially, Denver has 78 neighborhoods. We've seen some interesting ones spring to life in the past few years, RiNo, LoHi, LoDo, SoBo, and even the newly formed SloHi (Sloans Lake & Highlands). With so many neighborhoods to choose from, how can you decide?

A web-based company out of Pittsburgh called "Niche" analyzes and ranks neighborhoods based on Public School Grades, Crime & Safety, Housing, Good for Families, Diversity, Walkability, Public Transport, and many other factors to come up with a neighborhood score.

It's no surprise that Denverites love their four-legged companions and like to take them just about everywhere they go (including to work!). And with so many great trails just a short drive from Denver, you will often see just as many dogs on busy hiking trails as humans (we are certainly not complaining!). 

While dogs are allowed on plenty of trails, it is always wise to do a little research before you load up the car for a day of outdoor adventure, pup in tow. National Parks (e.g., Rocky Mountain National Park) do not allow dogs on trails or in the backcountry and some other trails outside of these parks will follow suit. Be sure to look online or check the signs at the trailhead to make sure it is a safe area to bring your furry friend to. And…
