My family and I went to the Colorado Gators farm. It was a blast very family friendly, which is great since I have a 3-year-old and 10-year-old sons. Even my 20-year-old so had a lot of fun. It was my first time being to the farm, great staff and atmosphere. We ate at Chili's our first night there and the service was really fast and friendly staff. It's really easy getting around Alamosa. My older son lives, he's going to college at Adam State University. I would only avoid the motel we stayed at for our visit.

The town has grown quite a bit over the last tweny-five years. It still has the old charm of a small place. The sand dunes and Lu's Diner in Blanca are just a short drive from town. I enjoy Caviellos Mexican restaurant and the local pub on Main in Alamosa. Picnics are lovely in city park and plenty of tables to choose from too!

Our stay at The Dunes was an unexpected and extreme pleasure !! After an all day visit to a local National Park, we were ready for a good nights sleep. While driving to The Dunes, we ran ober a rock in the highway which caused a flat tire that shredded it to the point of having to be towed into The Dunes. The owner was SUPER KIND to syay, after hours,, to check us in, provide any needed assistance, etc. The next day, when we were notified our vehicle was ready for pick up, owner of The Dunes, volunteered to drive us to the garage to pick up our vehicle. We only wish we took the time to get his name. I can easily state that I would definitely stay at The Dunes if ever in the area !! We've never met a motel owner as kind and considerate,. He, in our opinion, went above and beyond being helpful. Not only a terrific owner/manager, but The Dunes was a excellent lodging experience.

Alamosa itself is a small and very poor town. Three of the restaurants we found on google were permanently closed. We try to go to the Monte Vista and Alamosa National Wildlife Refuges during the Sandhill Crane migrations, and the cranes never disappoint. One reason for choosing the Sunset Inn was to be on the road, 8 S, that leads directly west to the Monte Vista site. The cranes can be best seen in the morning, and we saw many of them even as late as 11 am!

Alamosa is a friendly town with many fine restaurants and activities nearby. I enjoyed visiting Treasure Alley, Firedworks Gallery, and NRG garden center. Alamosa has 'one-way' traffic down the main street which somewhat restricts travelers heading East from seeing the downtown

Alamosa is a good basecamp for exploring the surrounding area. For myself it was simply an overnight stop on my way home. I went to the San Luis Brewery for supper. They did not have any ribeye steaks or ribs. I waited 15 minutes for the beer I ordered, I gave up and left. They get a 0.
