Elmer's

A classic diner inside the Ace Hotel with an outdoor patio and live music some weekends, so a bit of noise from your table goes unnoticed.

A mid-century tiki motel with a lawn beside the pool, so kids can do cartwheels between swims.

A compact cactus garden with shaded paths, small enough that younger kids can walk all of it.

A two-mile loop up rock steps to a waterfall at the back of the canyon. Not for a stroller, and bring more water than you think.

Turtles that squirt water are built into the play structures, so bring a towel and a change of clothes.

A playground opened in 2025 with shade structures and musical pieces to bang on, built so kids of every ability can play together.
