Do you and your family, or friends, take yearly vacations together? Is it spring break, holiday break, or summer when the kids are out of school? Since my daughters were little, 3 and 5 I believe, we've been taking them on some sort of vacation. Usually, we try and make it to Disney, but we've done some other fun things together over the years as well. What if I told you that a top 15 city for family-friendly vacations was right here in Colorado?

When it comes to making memories that last with your family, vacations give you some great opportunities to do just that. I probably remember more about little road trips and vacations as a teen way more than just normal day-to-day life stuff. Lawn Love set out to find and rank the best places for fun family and kid-friendly vacations. They looked at the food options, how many fun attractions are in the city, transportation, safety, affordability, and more.

Out of the 200 cities that Lawn Love ranked, Denver, Colorado, was ranked at #14. Denver was ranked 5th in the country for having the most amusement and theme parks. There were no other Colorado cities in the Top 100, but Colorado Springs was just outside of it at #110. The top 3 best cities for family/kid-friendly vacations are Miami at 3, Orlando at 2, and New York City at the very top of the list. I'd have figured Orlando was number 1 for sure. The worst-ranked city? Clarksville Tennese. There's your reminder to make Clarksville off of your "must-visit" list.
