Golden Gems: My Favorite Women-Owned Businesses in Golden, Colorado
As a Golden-based realtor and long-time local, I get to experience firsthand what makes our community so special…and at the heart of it all are the women-owned businesses that add creativity, warmth, and connection to every corner of town. From self-care to style to sipping tea, these are my absolute favorites… the spots that make living (and working!) in Golden feel like home.
1. Alyth Active
If you’ve driven down Washington Avenue, you’ve probably spotted Alyth Active, Alyth Active is based in downtown Golden and proudly operates as a women-owned business. That kind of local ownership matters…it means you’re supporting not just a brand, but neighbors, community members, and local livelihoods. The founders recognised a gap in the activewear market: clothing that could move with you, flatter your body, and transition from workout to weekend. Their pieces are designed to be versatile enough for morning hikes, client meetings, or running errands in town. I love their half-zips!!!
2. Truly BoHotique
For fashion that feels effortlessly Colorado-chic, Truly Bohotique is a dream. This locally-owned boutique specializes in bohemian-inspired clothing, statement accessories, and cozy seasonal pieces that transition perfectly from mountain weekends to downtown Golden brunch.
Nadine Wilson, the owner and founder, curates every item with a personal touch…supporting other women-led brands and artisans from across the country. Whether I’m shopping for a client gift or a new outfit for an open house, Truly Bohotique always delivers that laid-back, elevated Golden vibe.
3. Facial Aesthetics - Golden
When it comes to skin care, Facial Aesthetics Golden is second to none. Their team is known throughout the Denver metro for customized, advanced aesthetic treatments that blend science and artistry…but I have to give a special shout-out to Sydney and her microneedling with exosomes.
If you haven’t tried it yet, exosomes take traditional microneedling to the next level — boosting collagen, smoothing texture, and enhancing that post-treatment glow. Sydney is truly meticulous, explaining every step and making sure your skin feels rejuvenated, not stressed. I always leave feeling like I’ve hit the “refresh” button on my skin.
For realtors, moms, and busy locals alike — this is your Golden self-care stop.
4. Babes Tea Room - Golden
If you’re looking for a cozy, Instagram-worthy escape right in the heart of Golden, Babes Tea Room is pure magic. From their gorgeous floral décor to the perfectly steeped teas and creative afternoon treats, this spot feels like a mini-vacation.
It’s also one of my favorite places to meet with clients or girlfriends — the kind of spot where deals are discussed, dreams are shared, and laughter fills the air. Their seasonal tea flights and brunch menu make every visit feel like a special occasion (and yes, it photographs beautifully for your next social post!).
As someone who helps people find their home in Golden, I believe supporting local is part of what makes this community thrive. These women-owned businesses are more than just places to shop or visit…they’re part of the Golden story. When you invest in Golden real estate, you’re also investing in these incredible local entrepreneurs, creatives, and dreamers who make our town so vibrant.
