Lakewood hugs the foothills along Denver's western edge, stretching from Bear Creek to the base of Green Mountain. The city's defining feature is its proximity to the mountains — Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Dinosaur Ridge, and the start of I-70's mountain corridor all sit within or adjacent to Lakewood's borders. The Belmar district has become a walkable downtown alternative with restaurants, shops, and a movie theater. Bear Creek Lake Park offers 2,600 acres of trails, a swim beach, and mountain views that feel far more remote than 15 minutes from Denver.
Full-service hotel near the Federal Center with mountain views and outdoor pool.
Newer property near the I-70/C-470 interchange. Good base for Red Rocks or mountain day trips.
Clean, reliable, and well-priced for the location.
Belmar's anchor restaurant. American bistro with a seasonal patio and wine list.
Native American cuisine including Indian tacos and bison chili. One of a kind in the metro.
Pacific Northwest-inspired seafood on Belmar's main drag.
