Wedding Weekend of our Dreams
We booked Hillside for our wedding 2 years ago, without ever seeing the venue. We booked it based off of some photos and the idea that we could spend the entire weekend with our friends and family. When we arrived the day before the wedding, we were blown away. This place is pure magic. The owners are so kind. The fact that you have access to the entire property for the weekend is mind blowing - it has everything you need and more! The view for the ceremony was stunning, the barn was beautiful, the cabins are super cute and the BBQ area was awesome. Our guests can't stop talking about this venue.Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Tegan and Landis thank you SO much for the kind words. I have already told you but will tell you again - your group of people and the two of you are absolutely incredible. This was one of the kindest collective groups of people we have ever had here! Thank YOU for choosing Hillside and for trusting what we do. We take pride in cleanliness and taking care of this beautiful spot of the earth we get to live on and love nothing more than when people see it! :-)
We wish you a life time of love, health and happiness - you two seem meant for each other from the short time we got to witness you two together. -

Amazing wedding venue!!
We got married at Hillside this past August (2022) and can’t recommend it enough. Stef and Mark are incredible to work with, and the venue is stunning! We really wanted a ‘weekend venue’ where friends and family can stay on site, and have a bbq the evening before our wedding. We love the mountains so it was also important to us to have a scenic outdoor ceremony. Stef and Mark also made great vendor recommendations, and since all of the vendors work together so frequently, they ran such a well oiled machine all knowing each other and working together! We had SO many compliments on our venue choice and people asking how we found this hidden gem. You will not regret having your wedding at Hillside!!Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Oh Jaclyn! You are the sweetest! You two and your group were a highlight of our summer for sure! I very much appreciate the kind words. -

Dishonesty kept deposit
They wouldn’t allow us to pick a new year when Covid shut it down. After much back and forth agreed to give back HALF our deposit if someone rebooked on our date. They couldn’t even honor that. Someone rebooked on our date- they posted it on their Instagram page and they still didn’t give back part of our deposit.Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Hi Robin - I am sorry to read this kind of review from you.
You agreed to a non-refundable retainer when you signed our agreement. We are not obligated to refund anything.
Re-booking was not an option as COVID made everything uncertain. I am sorry you feel you needed to post this on the internet rather than speak to us directly. The booking we had for your date was last minute and at a significant discount.
Please know a cancelled wedding is a HUGE financial loss for us. The retainer is not even 1/4 of the revenue we would make in a weekend.
The thing with agreements is that when you sign them, you agree to the terms.

Beautiful Venue
Absolutely stunning venue! Had our wedding there in Sept 2019. Super friendly family! I recommend it, very beautiful!Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Thank you for taking time to write a review - we greatly appreciate it.
We would like to address the extra charges though as we are very surprised this was mentioned. No charges were applied for any of the additional items listed in the agreement. Everything we charge for is clearly outlined in our quote and agreement and we are truly sorry if there was a misunderstanding along the way about what we would be charging for. It is so important to us that everything is as transparent as possible and again, we apologize if you felt this wasn't the case - that is absolutely not our intention.
Thanks for the recommendation.
Sincerely,
Stef & Mark

The Best Wedding Venue
We cannot say enough amazing thing about things about our wedding at Hillside. Not only were we super happy, our guests can't stop talking about it! The cabins are cozy and more than 40 of our guests were able to stay on site. Mark and Stef were amazing hosts- it felt like we were celebrating our wedding with family- they truly welcomed us into their home with open arms. Every little question they attended to us and were always on site or a phone call away. Not to mention, what venue would take pictures of your day and then compile them into a photo book and send them to you?!? This is truly the best place, with the best people!
Highly recommend booking your wedding here- you won't regret it!Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Thank you for the kind words Shannon! You and Jack and your families and friends (and of course Butters!) were an absolute treat to have here! Thank you for letting us be a part of your special day. We think about you often! -

Beautiful All in One Mountain Wedding Venue
Hillside Lodge and Chalet's is an incredible venue for a wedding. We had our wedding there on September 15, 2018, and every aspect was magical. The owners, Stefanie and Mark are incredibly kind, caring, and attentive. We were able to come for not 1, but 2 tours of the venue prior to the wedding. For the actual wedding, it truly is a one stop shop. We were able to have our rehearsal dinner there using the Campfire and BBQ's they had on site and we could set up the reception area the night before. They have multiple cozy cabins, a greenspace for tents and a few trailer areas along with a spectacular honeymoon cabin, so we were able to stay onsite, and our close friends/immediate family/wedding party could stay on site with us the entire weekend. Each cabin has a wood burning fireplace, and they have the cutest little furniture with heart accents cut into the chairs. They have a bridal suite onsite which you can use to get ready which was so handy. They have a stunning ceremony site which overlooks the magestic turquoise blue Blaeberry river, and has an impressive mountain in the distance. Pine trees surround you and their fresh scent sweetens the air of the entire area. Hillside has a path that leads down the river and includes multiple stunning areas for photographs, meaning you don't have to leave the site to obtain absolutely stunning pictures. The reception barn is a short walk up the road, so you can go straight from the ceremony to the reception barn. The barn is spacious and has beautiful touches such as chandelier lights, flush toilet bathrooms outside and a campfire pit right outside. Hillside also has multiple contacts within the wedding vendor community, and they all work so well together to create a seamlessly smooth wedding experience. Overall, the beauty of this venue, the attentiveness of the owners to detail and the ability to have everything at one location made this venue absolutely perfect for our wedding. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a stunning outdoor venue for their wedding.-

Dream come true!
Hillside Lodge & Chalets was the perfect wedding venue. Stef & Mark (the owners) are the sweetest, down to earth couple. They were extremely helpful with the whole planning process & very patient with all of our questions. It’s comforting getting married somewhere where you know the owners are passionate & love what they do.
It was the most magical place to get married & we couldn’t have asked for a better wedding weekend. All of our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful it was (we even had one say they’d like to get married there too!). The ceremony site with the mountains & blaeberry river is an amazing backdrop, the field for cocktail hour & lawn games was a huge hit & the barn was an incredible spot for the reception.
It was so nice having approx 30 of our guests stay on site with us in the cabins, it turned our wedding into a whole long weekend gathering.
If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't do anything differently. If you are thinking of getting married at Hillside, do it! -

Wedding venue is breathtaking
We hosted our wedding on August 25th, 2018 at Hillside Lodge and Chalets. We booked the venue just over a year before our wedding and the owners were quick to respond to all our emails and inquiries. The venue is simply breathtaking and such a great place to host a wedding. Everything on the property was within walking distance and there are plenty of cabins for guest accomadations. We had nothing but compliments on the venue from all our our guests. We can't wait to come back and rent a cabin during the winter months to experience the property again! Highly recommend this property to anyone interested in hosting a wedding in Golden.-

So beautiful
If you are looking for a rustic, forest feel this is the place. Stefanie and Mark are so easy to work with. It was stress free. The venue is big and lots of space. The cabins were wonderful and we enjoyed our stay there. The views and area surrounding are a dream. I highly recommend them for your wedding venue! -
