No matter what’s going on in the world or in your own life, it is only fair to get outside and treat yourself to a vacation this summer. If you have kids and are looking for a spot that will entertain both them and you, we highly recommend checking out the massive Jellystone Park at Larkspur in Colorado:

Tucked away just south of Denver in the small town of Larkspur, Jellystone Park at Larkspur is a 100-acre RV resort that has “smarter than the average bear” amenities.
