Spring break doesn’t have to mean booking flights or long road trips. Sometimes, the best getaways happen right at home. At The Canyons™, you have everything you need for a fun and refreshing break without leaving the community. Whether you're looking to relax, explore, or spend quality time with family and friends, here’s how to make the most of your spring break staycation.
Start Your Day at The Exchange Coffee House™
Kick off your staycation with a slow morning at The Exchange Coffee House™. Enjoy a handcrafted latte and a warm pastry as you ease into the day, whether that means diving into a good book, journaling, or simply soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. Then, step outside for a refreshing spring walk before planning the rest of your day.
Hit the Trails
Spring in Colorado means fresh air, blooming landscapes, and stunning views. Take advantage of the 15 miles of trails winding through The Canyons™ with a morning jog, a family-friendly bike ride, or a leisurely sunset walk. Keep an eye out for wildlife emerging from winter, the first signs of wildflowers, and breathtaking views of the rolling hills and ravines that define our community.
Unwind at The Canyon House™
If you’re looking to relax, The Canyon House™ is the perfect retreat. Curl up by the fireplace with a book, take in the serene surroundings from the outdoor seating areas, or gather with neighbors for a laid-back afternoon. Looking for a way to de-stress? Plan a quiet yoga or meditation session in one of the community’s inviting spaces, then cap it off with a sunset view over the rolling landscape.
Host a Cozy Game or Movie Night
Cool spring nights call for the indoors. Set up a family game night with classic board games or new soon-to-be favorites. If movies are more your style, transform your great room into a home theater with popcorn, blankets, and a lineup of favorite films. To make it extra special, prepare a DIY snack bar with flavored popcorn seasonings, gourmet chocolates, or homemade cookies to enjoy throughout the night.
Dine at The Canyon House Kitchen + Cocktails™
Give your staycation a special touch with dinner at The Canyon House Kitchen + Cocktails™. Offering chef-inspired dishes and handcrafted drinks, it’s the perfect place to gather with friends or enjoy a relaxing evening with family. Whether you’re savoring a weekend brunch or indulging in a night out, this local favorite brings a refined yet welcoming atmosphere to your spring break plans.
Plan a Spring Gathering
As the weather starts to warm up, take advantage of outdoor spaces for a laid-back get-together. Fire up the grill, set up lawn games, and enjoy good food and great company. It doesn’t matter if it’s a casual afternoon gathering or an early evening by the firepit — The Canyons™ provides a picturesque backdrop for memorable moments with neighbors and friends.
Explore Castle Pines & Beyond
