Evergreen, Colorado

The mountain town that's technically a Denver suburb — elk in the yard and a lake in the middle of town

Home Destinations Denver Metro Area Evergreen

Evergreen sits in a mountain valley along Bear Creek, 30 minutes west of Denver at 7,000 feet. It's technically an unincorporated Jefferson County community, but it feels like a proper mountain town — elk wander through neighborhoods, Evergreen Lake freezes for ice skating in winter, and the dining scene has attracted chefs from Denver who prefer pine trees to parking meters. The town sprawls along Highway 74 and Upper Bear Creek Road, with no real downtown grid — just a string of galleries, restaurants, and shops nestled among the ponderosa pines. Wedding venues in Evergreen draw couples from across the state.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Evergreen hard to get to in winter?

Highway 74 and I-70 to the El Rancho exit are both maintained year-round. Snow does accumulate more than in Denver, and chains or AWD are wise in heavy storms. Our chauffeurs drive these roads year-round.

Is Evergreen a good wedding venue location?

One of Colorado's best. Evergreen Lake House, Brook Forest Inn, and several private estates host mountain weddings 30 minutes from Denver.
