A little goes a long way
You don’t have to spend a lot to spread the love. Kick it old school this year with pizza by the slice, a competitive game of skee-ball, and a few treats at Patsy’s. Capture the memories at one of the nearby photo booths.
Pizza by the slice at Hell's Kitchen
At just $7.25, a slice of pizza, 3 garlic knots and a fountain drink is a hell of a deal.
Friendly competition at the Penny Arcade
Just $10 in cash will go a long way at the Penny Arcade! Most classic games are 25 cents per play.
Individual Chocolates from Patsy's
Choose a few chocolate treats, indulge in saltwater taffy or split an enormous funnel cake for $10.50.

Soak in the afternoon
Enjoy quality time while soaking in your love—and the rejuvenating minerals from SunWater Spa. Then sip and savor your way through a flight of wine and made-to-order beignets.
Sips at Swirl Wine Bar
Make your own wine flight with a few 6oz selections and pair with the Melty Brie Dip or the BOB - bread, olive oil and balsamic reduction.
A soak at SunWater Spa
Reserve a personal tub overlooking the mountains for $45/person for a 90-minute soak. Your reservation includes access to the sauna and saline pool.
Beignet, done that
Transport your taste buds to the French Quarter. Pair an order of fresh beignets at $6.88 with two cups of cafe au lait to end the afternoon on the sweet side.
budget: $$$
Turn up the heat
Pack your bags for a romantic stay at The Cliff House at Pikes Peak. Indulge in amenities like in-room gas fireplaces, two-person spa tubs and steam showers. Then turn up the heat over fondue and surprise her with a local “gem”.
Four courses at Mona Lisa Fondue
Cranberry Brie Fondue and a Chestnut Praline Chocolate pair perfectly from Mona Lisa's Seasonal Menu—with 4 courses at $69/person.
An overnight stay at The Cliff House
For an experience as magical as your love, we recommend the Bed & Breakfast Package, starting at $177. Your stay includes a buffet breakfast for two.
Something sparkly at Lane Mitchell Jewelers
A token of your love is made that much more meaningful when it's sourced locally. From now until Valentine's Day, heart-shaped jewelry is 25% off.
