Georgetown is a territorial charter municipality and is the county seat of Clear Creek County. Located near the Missouri River, Georgetown has a small, picturesque downtown and many unique things to see and do. If you&#8217;re new to Georgetown, you should start by learning about the city&#8217;s history and culture. You&#8217;ll find the city is home to the Clear Creek Conservatory, as well as numerous outdoor activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historic hotels are another reason to visit Georgetown. Its old mining town has well preserved Victorian buildings that can be admired. In addition to the historic Georgetown Hotel, there&#8217;s a scenic lake in the area and several great hiking trails. The town of Georgetown is only a few hours&#8217; drive from Glenwood Springs and is worth a visit. Georgetown is the perfect base for exploring the surrounding ghost towns, including Silver Plume, and is home to several museums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the winter, ski resorts are just a few miles away. The Loveland Ski Area, 13 miles from Georgetown, is a local favorite. With 1,800 acres of terrain spread across the Continental Divide, it&#8217;s easy to see why Georgetown is so popular.

Georgetown was founded as a mining town and rapidly grew after the railroad came to the area to pick up the silver. Despite the growth, the town has managed to retain the town&#8217;s history and culture. The Colorado Mountain Art Gallery, a cooperative gallery, features the work of more than thirty local artists. For more eclectic items, check out the Georgetown Gallery, a gallery with locally produced art by local artists. Grizzly Creek Gallery features sculptures, including a historic train, and Georgetown&#8217;s own brewery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located just 45 miles from Denver, Georgetown is an authentic piece of history in the mountains. Located along the way to Guanella Pass, the town is well-located for scenic mountain hikes. The Rose Street Bed &amp; Breakfast is an excellent option in Georgetown, a historic district that is surrounded by nature. The rooms are well-appointed and feature a wood-burning stove. The hotel has an on-site restaurant and a pub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The town was founded during the era of the Pikes Peak Gold Rush. After the discovery of silver in 1864, Georgetown became a booming center of commerce and residence. In the late 1800s, Georgetown boasted a population that was 10 times larger than it is today. This gave Georgetown the title of the &#8220;Silver Queen&#8221; of Colorado. The city has many attractions for visitors to enjoy throughout the year. You can spend an afternoon relaxing in the Argentine Pass or enjoying a day of sightseeing along the Georgetown River.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a unique place to live, consider Georgetown, Colorado.
