As adorable as this classic 1942 tile-roofed casita is, we’re pretty sure its best feature is that it’s within walking distance from the city park in Pueblo, a diverse and energetic city located about two hours south of Denver. There’s even a zoo with penguins and zebras! And a train that takes you around the park! And no joke, there’s a miniature amusement park with a carousel that only costs 50 cents for a ride! The other star attraction of this city of 111,000 is the 32-acre Riverwalk along the banks of the Arkansas, where a 30-minute boat cruise will give you time to contemplate whether to order the ribeye or the filet mignon at Twenty One Steak with all the money you saved.
