Golden is the Home Rule Municipality that is the county seat of Jefferson County, Colorado, United States. Golden lies along Clear Creek at the base of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. Founded during the Pike's Peak Gold Rush on June 16, 1859, the mining camp was originally named Golden City in honor of Thomas L. Golden. Golden City served as the capital of the provisional Territory of Jefferson from 1860 to 1861, and capital of the official Territory of Colorado from 1862 to 1867. In 1867, the territorial capital was moved about 12 miles (19 km) east to Denver City. The United States Census Bureau estimates that the city population was 18,867 in 2010.

Mountain Threads is amazing. We had made our reservation 2 days before arriving online which is super easy. Once we arrived at the store the staff provided us our duffel bag with all of our gear. Before leaving they make sure you try everything on to make sure you have the perfect fit and are comfortable. Since I had picked the wrong sizing on gloves and pants they were able to change it out for the right size with no problems. For drop off they do have a drop box that you can drop off your gear if they are closed. Which made it very convenient for us. The clothes is great quality and will definitely keep you warm.

We are currently open by reservation and for walk-in’s (space available). You can check available times and make a reservation from the link on our website, https://mountainluxcandles.com. ~ Our shop provides a unique "hands-on" experience allowing you to create a custom scented candle with a blend selected by you (we have over 80 fragrances to choose from and put together the way you want)! You can also craft your own scented wax tarts (for melters), room sprays, and reed diffusers. ~ In store, we also carry a large variety of pre-poured candles, gift-packs, note cards, and candle holders for purchase.
We planned this as a post holiday event for the ladies in our family and it was perfect for our group (ages 35 - 80). They had a really nice selection of holders and worked with each of us to create a really beautiful scent that made us smile. A lovely business run by a charming family. The daughters, mom, dad - and I guess sons are involved too. It was a unique activity. The only heads up is that you have to let the candles rest for two hours. Which is actually not bad at all but we went in the evening and it closes at 7 so we had to go back to pick them up. We live in Denver, so not a big deal at all - but could be if you are traveling. If you want to pick them up the same day, just go a little earlier in the day. There are plenty of great shops up and down main street and several great restaurants to choose from to spend 2 hours. We went to Indulge Wine Bar. A perfect food option to pair with this activity - great food and service, a step up from many nacho and chicken wing options in the area.

beautiful minerals, gemstones and crysals for collection or healing. Home decor, sage, incense, jewelry.
My son loves rocks and was able to find a great amethyst. The shop has a mix of crystals and rocks. Although he is only interested in rocks, it was still worth the stop.

The Boettcher Mansion provides a rare combination of historic authenticity and modern amenities from its secluded setting inside the Lookout Mountain Nature Preserve in Golden, CO, only a half-hour drive west of Denver. Built in 1917 as a summer home and seasonal hunting lodge for Charles Boettcher, the former "Lorraine Lodge" was donated to Jefferson County in the 1970s for public use and enjoyment. In 1984, the Arts and Crafts estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places External Link Icon and now serves as Jeffco's premier historic events venue. A division within the Jefferson County Parks department, the Mansion is self-sustaining, supporting itself primarily from event fees. An impressive example of adaptive re-use, the one-time family residence is perfectly suited for all kinds of social gatherings, including weddings, receptions and commitment ceremonies, along with memorial services and other commemorative milestones. Carefully preserved and sensitively updated in 2005-07, this rustic yet polished architectural gem offers a stunning backdrop for conferences, dances, executive retreats, family reunions, film shoots, fundraisers, lectures, musical performances and trade shows...to name just a few of our ongoing functions.
This marvelous mansion is something to see. Considering that it was built over one hundred years ago, on the top of a mountain, it is amazing. I know, the family had money, but even so, the care to detail when it was built, and the same care in restoration has left a wonderful showcase of the past. It was a hunting lodge and still feels like that, but some changes have been made, so that the building can be rented out for events and sustain itself, so that it will be here for other generations to enjoy seeing. Call before going during the week to be sure to have a guide, which makes all the difference in getting the feel of the people who built and spent time here.
