Proposing at Lily Lake at Rocky Mountain National Park in colorado

Lily Lake is a not-so-hidden gem in Estes Park. I love Lily Lake for many reasons, like it’s right next to a magical nostalgic cafe called the Seven Keys Lodge (hello, fun photo op!), it doesn’t cost money (woop woop), and it’s also super accessible (there are more challenging routes around the lake or you can take a super chill walk if you wanna dress up and not hike). It’s also the first place I saw a moose in Colorado so don’t think just because you’re not paying for a park entrance fee you won’t see wildlife!
