Open year-round, this rustic log-cabin-style lodge comfortably accommodates up to 200 guests indoors and 100 on the scenic outdoor deck, making it an ideal space for any occasion and all seasons. Perched above the lake, the venue boasts stunning views, even from inside, as seven of the eight walls in the Octagon Room feature floor-to-ceiling windows. Best of all, the venue doesn’t limit you to a specific caterer, allowing you to choose any service that suits your needs and palate.

Why settle for cut flowers when you can host your celebration in a vibrant field of fresh blooms? This enchanting farm, located beside the St. Vrain River, offers a picturesque setting that can comfortably accommodate up to 125 guests on its shaded lawns. With a curated list of vendors, a wealth of included amenities, and exciting add-ons, planning your event here is effortless and delightful. This venue shines brightest in the warmer months, as all events take place outdoors, but a sailcloth tent is available in case of inclement weather.

Its new event venue offers sprawling indoor and outdoor spaces, floor-to-ceiling glass, fireplaces, and mountain vistas. Twinkling string lights outside and exposed natural wood inside bring charm to both intimate gatherings and grand celebrations alike. Located near the airport, it makes for a convenient commute for out-of-town guests.
