Westminster: Outdoor Beauty Minutes from Denver
Ensuring you pronounce it as "West-min-ster" (three syllables), the city of Westminster holds a position of pride, ranked 24th on Money Magazine's "Best Places to Live" in America list. Just a 20-minute drive from downtown Denver, Westminster's roots date back to the late 1800s when it was a sprawling expanse of Central Shortgrass prairie. Visitors can experience its rich past at the Bowles House Museum, a preserved farmhouse that's part of the National Register of Historical Places, offering insights into the lives of original homesteaders.
Westminster offers a wide variety of shopping, dining, entertainment, and recreational options. Among the city's most popular attractions are the Butterfly Pavilion and Insect Center, housing over 5,000 animals and 1,600 butterflies in their indoor tropical rainforest, and the Westminster Promenade - an outdoor pedestrian village featuring restaurants, a movie theater, a bowling alley, and various play areas.
Recently, Westminster earned a Gold Medal award from the National Recreation and Park Association, acknowledged for its well-planned neighborhood subdivisions, open space, sound financial management, and innovative use of technology in its park and recreation systems. The city boasts 150 miles of trails, including the Little Dry Creek Trail and the Rocky Mountain Greenway.
For golfing enthusiasts, Westminster offers the Legacy Ridge Golf Course, suitable for various skill levels, complemented by stunning mountain views. Walnut Hill Golf Course Preserve, Colorado's first-ever golf preserve, is home to over 77 species of wildlife. The Hyland Hills Golf Course and The Ranch golf course provide not only exceptional golfing but also offer custom homes with breathtaking golf course and mountain views.
