Love coming here, always beautiful scenery and lots of fun. Definitely should go on train ride, takes you around Tiny town so you can see other things. Has portable restrooms also so that's not a issue. The gift shop is super small and probably one of the things that would be better if larger and sold more things. Also the refreshment stand/ice cream booth ONLY TAKES CASH which was super disappointing because I'm like everyone else now days and only uses debit, they need to get with the times on this because my 2 year old wanted ice cream but couldn't cause it was cash only..But cool little summer activity.

Amazing and affordable day trip with kids! A nice train ride, concessions and gift shop. Super friendly employees and the tiny town is so fun. You can walk up to most of them and peak inside to see little lives set up. I recommend the train ride first then walking through the town to a neat playground at the end. There are picnic tables all around too for picnicking.

Great place to take your little ones. From many replica miniature buildings(some the kids can actually get into) to the kid size train ride and a playground at the end = hours of fun in the sun. Well worth the price of admission. I am sure our little one will be talking about the visit for a long time.

Much less screaming children than I expected, fun especially for the adults that have been to a lot of these miniaturized buildings. Not expensive at all, lots of shade, highly recommend the train! Everyone in our group of 6 (a baby, a toddler, a teen, and 3 older adults) loved it!

This place is really cute but I'm giving it four stars instead of give because you pay a decent amount for what you are getting. The little replica houses are fun, my kiddos enjoy the playground that is suited to all ages. The rain ride cost extra but if you are going you might as well do the rain ride too. Their are a few of the little houses to climb into for the kids. Overall a great place!

Our visit to Tiny town was an overall very enjoyable experience, it was the perfect place for our 1 1/2 year old to have a blast while exploring the buildings and the whole family had fun on the train ride! The staff we encounted from the man at the ticket booth to the train engineers were very friendly and great with the children! My only complaint would be the woman who says she “runs” the concession stand, as we were outside looking the menu, a Duck was also wondering around in the picnic area, this woman proceeds to feeds the duck popcorn, this of course intrigues the children but as soon as the children approach she begins yelling at them to get away and when they asked why she tells them very harshly “because I said so! And I run things around here!” This woman’s negative attitude towards the children caused our family to decide not to buy anything from “her” concession stand.. disappointing, but besides that tiny town is a very cool and fun place for the whole family.

Tiny Town was cute and reasonably priced. It was fun to look at the detail in some of the buildings, and my kids especially loved going inside a few. The train ride was a highlight as well. If you plan to do that, you'll have less of a wait if you do it early! They have a concession area, but you can also bring in food and drink to enjoy at a small picnic area near the playground at the far end of the attraction. The staff we encountered weren't really friendly, but no one was rude. There are some buildings that are only visible during the train ride (including Coney Island and the Air Force Academy Chapel). The train passes so quickly that it's easy to miss those or not get a good look. I'm sure that's probably intentional to entice people to buy a train ticket, but I do wish we could have seen them without being on the train, even if from a distance.

Nostalgic for some, enjoyable for all- kids love the miniature railroad and can walk through several of the tiny buildings. This place deserves your patronage. Pack a lunch to eat and let the kids play on the playground before heading home.

Our three girls were so excited as they discovered one tiny building and then the next and the next. Their excitement was contagious because I couldn't help but find myself examining the miniature contents of each building with delight! Don't skip the train and ice cream treat - it really rounds off the experience! Enjoy!

Cute little place! Took my 1.5 year old and he had a great time. It is very reasonably priced, we only stayed about an hour but for $7 it was worth it.

Great place to spend a couple hours. My 3 year old loved the train ride (which was great for adults too!), and exploring all the little houses. The playground was superb.

Good place to spend a couple hours with kids. They can visit the tiny houses, play at the playground, eat ice cream at the concession and take the train through fun forest scenes. The reason I take a star off is that some of the trains emit a huge amount of smoke all the time, bad for the environment, and very unpleasant, irritates throat, damages lung. The rest don't. I wish all the trains are upgraded like that.

Loved this place! I might be biased as they had buildings for "Grant" Automotive and "Schow" Lumber... across the street from each other no less. Pack a lunch and kill half a day with the family. Your kid's faces will light up while exploring the tiny town and the interior scenes.They also have a small steam engine that takes you around the park and into areas you can't walk to.

Really cute and fun place. Had all the amenities needed for a kids outing (e.g changing table, snack shop, etc.). Gift shop was surprisingly affordable with some really great deals. Some houses are interactive. Good play place. So around perfect for littles. Make sure to ride the train! Some things can only be seen via train ride. We just wish we could access the creek and lush grass for a relaxing picnic, but these areas are off limits.

I have an almost 4 year old and a toddler (almost 16 months). This was a fantastic activity for both kids. It's not overwhelming and both kids could access the sights at their own level. They had fun on the playground and absolutely loved the train. It was an affordable outing as well, which I appreciated. The only thing I would do differently is to put my toddler in long pants and closed shoes. He fell multiple times and got lots of rocks in his little sandals. As an adult, I also enjoyed looking at all the tiny things and reading about some of the historical places.

This place was some what interesting, but pretty run down, like it hadn’t been updated since 1979... we like exploring weird/unknown places, and even though this was a kids place we were hoping to still see some weirdness. But on the uniqueness scale I’d give it a 4/10, so it’s something you could skip if you’re coming here just for that. But if you have a child who’s under 5, I’m sure they’ll have an okay afternoon.

I was blown away with how cute this place was! It was established a long time ago and it's so beautiful nestled in the mountains! This place is geared towards younger children, although my 9 year old enjoyed herself too! I highly recommend the train since you get to see some extra cute houses and other quaint things that you cannot otherwise see. Perfect price point!

What a great time. A "little" look at Colorado history and a great time for the little and the big. Bring a picnic but save a little room for ice cream! We will definitely be back and recommend Tiny Town to families. The train ride is awesome! All of the engineers are so friendly and informative. This place is an icon and one of my daughter's new favorite places!

Took the grandkids, they enjoyed it as much as my kids did. Was kind of sad that some of the buildings needed more upkeep. If they held a day in the springtime for adult volunteers to repair & paint some of the buildings, with the right advertising I bet plenty of people would show up. I sure would! The volunteer train conductors were so friendly. We had to take the train twice, in case we missed something! Definitely a hidden gem for all ages.

I loved this place as a very small child, and decided to take my own kids up here just to see what it was like. I was worried it would be in disrepair and would ruin the magic of my childhood memories, but I was so happy to discover it is well kept and still as adorable as ever. Time has not changed it at all, which is hard to say about many things. Totally a nostalgic, lovely little attraction (and very affordable!)

Fun place for kids and fascinating for adults. The miniature homes with fine details such as live settings in a saloon, school, theatre, gas station, etc using dolls and other toys; a nine minute mini train ride with various engine models (gas and electric powered) that takes you around the tiny town (including a tunnel and Jurassic section!); and topped with a concession shop, a gift shop, a picnic area under the trees and a children's playground! Definitely a unique touring place that is not to be missed.

This is a great place to spend a couple of hours. There are plenty of picnic tables and a snack bar if you don't bring your own picnic. The train ride takes around ten minutes and takes you on a loop where you can see all kinds of themed areas like Boot Hill and even a covered bridge. In addition to the restrooms at the gift shop, there are port-a-potties throughout the place.

This adorable little town is meant for both kidlets and kids at heart. The darling tiny town has its own neighborhoods, a jail, even stables for the tiny horses! (Not real horses.) If you look around, you'll even see the famous Stanley Hotel, nestled in the mountains. The train ride was fantastic.

We loved visiting Tiny town! Our kids (ages 2 and 4) had a blast as well. The train took us around the tiny town (you see some areas otherwise off limits which was fun) and we also really enjoyed looking in all the houses. There are 5 or so houses kids can go into and my girls really enjoyed that as well. Lots of picnic tables in the shade to eat on or sit and watch kids play on the playground. Bathrooms are at the entrance of there are portable bathrooms along the walk. Easily a place you can spend an hour at or stay longer and eat lunch, play etc and spend half the day.

I give this place 5 stars because it's authentic and mostly volunteers work there. This place is pretty much for toddlers. This place has a 9 minute train ride, small model houses, a park, gift shop and a small eating area. It's a small place. But a fun place for your tots that's only 30 minutes west of Denver.

A cheap place to spend an hour or so. A train ride, handful of tiny buildings kids can go in, and a decent sized playground. Lots of tables in the shade to eat lunch. Snack shop is cash only, I thought the lady working there was nice and friendly. Side note, the coffee shop across the street is amazing and serves lunch and many treats. Lots of options for adults and kids, so next time we will skip Tiny Town's snack shop and just go there after.

We visited with a group of friends and a bunch of kids, aged newborn through 8. All ages seemed to enjoy tiny town, and the train ride was great! There are restrooms by the train, and port-a-potties further down the path, but no need to use them unless it's an emergency. There is a playground at the end of the path also. And a creek with a split rail fence, so keep an eye on your runners 😂😉.

Great place to visit for both adults and kids. The train ride is perfect to check out the entire area. There is a park with swings, etc for kids to play. The houses and gardens are Cute and tiny. This is definitely a perfect picnic spot with kids. Simple food options are available too. Make sure to grab some cute tiny souvenirs from the gift shop.

If you have any interest in learning about Colorado in a fun a kids type way, you gotta take the time and drive into the Rockies for this little hidden gem. Well worth the drive and the looks on the faces. Me and the family had a blast without xbox,PlayStation, or over expensive amusement park. I promise you will love it.

This is an awesome inexpensive family experience. I have talked about this place since i first visited in 2001. Love it. Finally after all these years i was able to go back and share the experience w my husband and child. It was still awesome. Even though it was raining that day off and on we all had a blast. My daughter will be talking about this experience for years to come. We will be planning another trip just for this attraction. Its not just fun it is historical as well. There was never a dull moment and we all learned so much. Staff super friendly and knowledgeable. The little concession stand was fairly priced and tasty. The gift shop was affordable and the entry fee and train ride super affordable.

Priceless memories. I went here as a kid and loved the train ride where I could sit in the caboose and watch the beautiful tiny houses go by. I took my wife and daughter to visit grandma and to no surprise it was a hit for my daughter. She loved the little houses and rode the train twice! Very affordable and hours of fun. They feature a good snack shack and a small park for kids to run around on so you can sit and enjoy time with your family or loved ones nearby on a bench. Downtown Morrison is nearby with great food as well so make it a day trip!
