Best History Museum in Winter Park

"The Boulder History Museum is something of a legend in these parts and is the proud home of over 45,000 antique artifacts from the region. The museum is a period attraction in itself as it sits in the Harbeck-Berghei House which is also a National Historic Landmark in the town. The mission of the museum, which sits on University Hill, is to educate visitors about the historical significance of Boulder and to that end you will find rotating exhibits that tell the story of the town and the surrounding area."

"TheBoulder History Museum, also known as the Museum of Boulder, has moved!. For over thirty years, the storied museum operated out of Boulder’s historic Harbeck-Bergheim House until a generous donation allowed it to expand into a much larger facility in the center of the city!. The museum holds tens of thousands of historic and antique artifacts from the region and offers visitors a chance to observe historical documents and photos that tell the story of Boulder and the state of Colorado."

Clear Creek History Park is located on Arapahoe Street near the downtown area and features an impressive collection of historic buildings, including barns, cabins, and a one-room schoolhouse. The park’s distinct areas are connected by well-marked paths that offer visitors the opportunity to stretch their legs and breathe lots of fresh mountain air while getting interesting insights into the area’s past."

"William Cody is a fascinating historical character that’s most commonly known as Buffalo Bill. Cody was born in the mid-1800s when Colorado was wild, dangerous, and full of herds of wild buffalo; he made a name for himself by hunting them. Buffalo Bill also founded his own theater production called The Wild West, which thrilled visitors with acts of horsemanship and harrowing tales of life in the wilds of Colorado."

"Buffalo Bill’s Gravesite and Museum features exhibits exploring Buffalo Bill’s life and times, including Wild West show outfits and posters, Indian artifacts, and antique firearms. Temporary exhibits, which change every year, explore a variety of Western themes.

"Basta, which means “enough” in Italian, is one of Boulder’s boutique restaurants, located in a rather unassuming apartment complex in the city’s eastern side. The restaurant serves dinner six days a week, Tuesday to Sunday, from 5:00pm until 10:00pm. Basta can be somewhat difficult to find, but it’s worth the effort to try dishes from the market-driven, creative menu that includes pizza, salumi, burrata, and wood-fired chicken that go with the various cocktails and affordable wines.."

"Run solely by a wood-fired oven, Basta churns out delicious pizzas, seafood, and meats with an Italian flair unlike any other. Their selective menu is quick and to the point with a handful of pizza options, a few dinner plates, a petit raw bar, and the piada bread baked fresh from their bakehouse – Dry Storage. 3601 Arapahoe Ave, Boulder, CO 80303 | 303-997-8775 | bastaboulder.com"

"Along with having over 30 specialty ales made in house, Fate Brewing Company also smokes their meat to utter perfection, creating a Reuben unlike any other filled with melt-in-your-mouth pastrami, gooey cheese and tangy sauerkraut. They also strive to serve local ingredients, all while putting an innovative twist on classic favorites like their (yet again) house-smoked hot wings and brisket gyro. #SpoonTip: Their original Reuben is no longer officially on the menu but just tell your server that you want the traditional Reuben and they’ll make you one, no problem."

"The ambiance of Fate Brewing Company is that of laidback elegance and taste in more ways than one. Their food is designed to perfectly pair with their libations and an open, cheerful atmosphere makes this Boulder restaurant perfect for getting together after a long day, birthday parties or intimate dinners."But what about the food?" you might be asking. Fate's fare leaves nothing to be desired and blends bistro-style American cuisine with a bit of international flair."
