The first fire was reported just after midnight Tuesday. Castle Rock Fire Rescue crews said in that fire, there was damage to the property. No one was injured. 

Early Wednesday morning, crews were called to the same location again. The owner said they are trying to learn as much as they can about what happened.

"They were investigating yesterday's. They did say it started outside, it wasn't, like, a fire that started inside, so that's why they're treating it as a suspicious fire, and I'm assuming that's how they're treating it again today. They're still working on it this morning," said Hideaway Bar and Grill owner Robert Stroh. "In retrospect of yesterday, it was suspicious yesterday; it was suspicious today."
