This was my first time coming to Terrapin Care Station. The prices were great, even for non patients. Picked up two strains~Triple Diesel & Jal Kush. Both were excellent, very smooth, and quite a pleasant high. The bud tender was very cool too. Highly recommended.
5 Stars. Will be back. ;-)

Very friendly and helpful, and my bud tender was very patient and helpful with all of my questions. A lot of dispensaries could learn from this company. There is an entire demographic of people like me who have not been lifelong users but are coming back to it in later life. I live in Aurora but will drive as far as necessary for good service, quality, and prices. I have had too many dispensaries be rude, not listen, and make bad recommendations as far as product and usability for each person.

Definitely a 5 out of 5!!!
I have become a regular customer here. After trying many around North Denver and others in Boulder, I am convinced they have the best prices in Colorado. Buds are $7 to $8 per gram for non-members and they will run specials at $150 per ounce and $165 per ounce for regular and top shelf product. The bud tenders are nice and can help guide you with choices but every patient needs to research the strains to find the ones that are most helpful for his or her symptoms. I have seen nicer stores but simple works for me when it keeps the price down and the quality at the top level. "I'll be back!" said Arnie as he exited the shop.

Went three times and I wish I hadn’t gone once. I went one time myself. Another with my girlfriend. And a third just to make sure it was as bad as I thought. “Budtenders” were less knowledgeable than me, had bad attitudes or just a flat affect, they do not seem to care if anything sells, and it more feels like as a customer you are burdening the employees by them having to work. And by work I mean they just look at you with glazed eyes while making comments to their friends behind the counter and laughing about inside jokes. Either way laughing while around customers isn’t professional. Not knowing the products is unprofessional. Every person there is young, doesn’t care, and treats customers like they are the worst problem in their day. If you walk in knowing what you want, they treat you like crap. If you don’t know what to get, they seem to suddenly have tons of schmoozing effort. Negative vibe.

The first time I went in they had REASONABLE prices. 85/oz seems legit to me, and they matched that price all the way down to the eighth, also reasonable. They were a slightly worse deal after all was said and done than driving across town to Peaceful Choice. But after today, they'll never see a dime of my money again. Which is unfortunate for them, because they're close to my house, and I would have preferred to continue to go there. Instead, today I was greeted with "We've got $69.99 ounces today!" And I went, "okay, I'm looking for a half ounce or so, are these prices correct?!" (I gestured to the $59.99/half oz price on the menu) "Yeah..." The budtender responded. I said, "that seems pretty unreasonable" and he said "well, if you're from boulder I can give you $5 off an eighth," I said "I am, but I'm looking for more than that, what can you do for like a quarter or something?" "Yeahhhh, we really tend to stick to the $40 price for quarters...." So I bought a $40 quarter, instead of getting in my car and driving to Peaceful Choice like I should have. Where I would have gotten exactly twice the product, with far kinder staff, and product which is often superior to Terrapin's, for the EXACT SAME PRICE!
Congrats guys, you've lost what would have been a life long customer, totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars, due to refusing to offer ANY discount on a half ounce, even though ounces are priced at $70. I'm also a polite customer. I don't make waves, and I respect your staff. I actually live here too, so I know exactly what your product should be valued at. Your "regular prices" suck, it's not worth saving the time and gas to go to your location anymore. Plus, the drive out to Arapahoe and 75th is pretty.
Unbelievably disappointed in the management and staff at this location, and I'll be posting this review on several platforms so others know not to give these guys their business. I am in no way affiliated with Terrapin, or Peaceful Choice, and am not being compensated for this review in any way.

I don’t know if it was a problem with my phone or Terrapin website. The confirm order button would not respond, no fields were empty, I ordered (I thought) twice. When I arrived at curbside pick-up, the employee checked my ID, ran my debit card, and returned with “my order”. I got home and saw it was not my order. I called to alert Folsom store what had happened and was told some would be right there to greet me. After waiting a while, I went into the store to complete transaction. I was told there was no record of my order (shouldn’t they have known this from my ID ?) I payed for someone else’s order. Policy prevents Terrapin from refunding or exchanging anything. I was offered “some kind of discount” but definitely not the amount I paid for the WRONG ORDER. When I said that this was not going to satisfy me at all, the employee asked if we could finish the conversation outside. I followed him out but the front desk guy decided to follow us outside to tell me to “Calm Down”. If you are dealing with someone who is upset, customer or otherwise, demanding that they “cam down” is not only dismissing any validity and is sickeningly condescending. Unless I receive better compensation for “their mistake”, I’ll look into making a fraud claim with my bank.
Christmas is not a great time to tie up someone’s money when it is your fault.

Although their website's FAQ describes using your temporary red card, they won't take it. I went today and they told me I needed my original paperwork, which of course was mailed in to the state. Too bad, you just lost my business.
From their website:
"You are able to shop at any Colorado Medical Marijuana Center after the CDPHE has received your paperwork and it is within 35 days of the date on your certified mail receipt."

I love this place! My girlfriend and I rarely get to shop together and sometimes don't get the service we'd like, but not here! Gary was super knowledgeable, helpful and helped us find exactly what we were looking for. I'll be transferring my membership here on my next visit!

Generous prices for really dank bud. Wax is also great. I strongly recommend the permafrost.

Terrapin is consistently great for me. The quality of meds is always top notch. The folks are always able to answer any questions I have. This place is my absolute favorite!

I love coming here. I like the prices and the quality of the product. It's always frosty, fluffy and fresh. The service is good but can be slow. I love finding buds that are supposed to be purple, ACTUALLY BEING purple.

Very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great variety and prices are amazing, especially with the Boulder locals discount. Their app is very useful and being able to place takeout orders makes shopping a breeze, especially on busy days.

Great service. Fast and easy. Amazing flower and a wide selection of concentrates which I love!
I'm now a member!

Nice selection of stoney buds. i wanted a couple of more high-functioning medicine and a few more select strains (though the Northern lights and Blue dream were both notable, tokable, smokable. Indeed: the Northern Lights crop they most recently had was spectacular both aesthetically and after consumption.
The staff was very easy going, helpful, and informed. I will come back for the great pricing and that Northern lights.

Excellent service and selections! Low key and always a nice experience! Employees recommendations/comments are always helpful and right on!

Terrapin Care Station is one of the most quiet dispensaries I've been to. Nice and small but plenty of product. Their strains are great, lots of heady choices, all top quality. They seem to have some decent oz. prices but I personally think they are over priced, definitely one of the more expensive dispensaries around. Give Terrapin a shot, you won't be disappointed.

My go-to spot. They don't have everything I need, but certainly most of it, and their home-grown CBD strains are incredible. All of their stuff is comparatively very well-priced, they offer great discount days, and their staff are friendly. They're knowledgeable and easy to chat with.
In addition to my own stuff, I buy CBD (The Wife) co2 oil from them for my horse. It's the most cost effective and convenient way of dosing him. I had been wanting to put him on it for a while, finally did a few weeks ago, and have seen a huge improvement! He was a rescue so struggles with some ptsd-related anxiety and old injuries, since taking The Wife daily he is moving better and is much happier!

Love this shop but want a menu yo! nice to know what you have on the shelvesd before having to drive out since it is kind of a hike for me.

So glad to have made you guys my caregiver. It was a great decision, there is always a huge selection of edibles, drinks, flower, and pretty much everything else. I got an awesome bamboo pre-rolling mat. The staff there is awesome, they remember who you are, and treat you like real people. The prices are some of the best in boulder. Some of there better strains I've like are Blowfish, Lavender, Lemon Mazar, and Glass Slipper. Those strains are not top shelf either. Defiantly worth checking out if you haven't been!

My friend recommended this place to me, saying he enjoys their gummies. I go there regularly. I love their staff and buds. However, I did once get a very weak brownie.

This was the only dispensary we went to during our week long trip to Denver/Boulder that DEMANDED a passport.....because we are from Canada. We don't carry our passports on our person and other photo identification was not acceptable.....we left and went to The Farm. Had an excellent experience there. Great vibe and super helpful staff!
