I must say so far this venue has been the best I have encountered. We are not getting married until 2026, so I will absolutely update this after our day, but I have seen enough so far to write a good review for this place. For starters Jennifer answered my request within a day of sending it in, we got scheduled to walk the area within a week, and decided a couple days later this would be the place! The price is one of the best I have seen in the area, the views and accommodations are incredible, and Jennifer is clear,honest, and so understanding and patient. I am so happy we have chosen Glenwood Canyon Resort as our venue and I am so excited for our big day! Thanks for everything you guys offer here!

You will not find a better value in the Roaring Fork Valley! Their packages are super reasonable and include many things you will pay extra for at other venues. Including but not limited to beautiful farm wood tables and chairs, outside bar with all the essentials and a commercial kitchen for approved caterer use. Not only are you surrounded by the mountains, stunning Glenwood canyon walls and the Colorado River, but your guests have many lodging options right on site. GCR has all-inclusive cabins, glamping, tent and RV sites and everything in between. Many of our guests stayed right at the venue and enjoyed the ease and comfort. The GCR event staff was incredibly accommodating - taking our vision into account, and doing their best to make everything perfect. We can't say enough about Jennifer, KP and Twila! They worked right along-side of us and late into the evening until the lights went out. We will share far and wide about this off the beaten path venue only minutes from downtown Glenwood Springs.

FECT! Jennifer, KP, and the Glenwood Canyon Resort crew were amazing when it came to helping us plan our wedding. They were communicative, available when we needed them to be, and they went above and beyond with helping us create such a special day. We highly recommend anyone looking for a venue to book Glenwood Canyon Resort to make sure you have the perfect wedding day! Thank you Glenwood Canyon Resort for making our wedding so memorable. We will be back to camp there!
