Perfect Venue for Our Big Day

Where to begin? Canyon ski resort was a 10 out of 10 all around. From the absolute perfect location and gorgeous chalet, to the incredibly helpful staff and vendors, we could not recommend this venue more!!

Food was incredible, We had the Dinner Feast and Midnight snack option. The pizza far exceeded our expectations for a late night snack and the Beef Roast and chicken were both amazing. All our guest were well fed and extremely pleased. And the desserts! Crème brulee and Skor Cake were a big hit!

Thank you to Robyn and Aaron for helping us put this perfect day together. It was certainly one we will never forget, and we are forever grateful.

Exceptional venue!

Canyon is a 5 star venue! Their exceptional service, delicious food, professionalism, communication, and flexibility, not to mention how absolutely gorgeous the venue and location is, created the most amazing and unforgettable wedding day! Our guests loved the setting, and the staff at Canyon noticeably went above and beyond whenever they could. I would not change a thing, and we are so grateful to have had this opportunity to celebrate in this amazing space. Thank you so much to the staff and owners of Canyon!

We had our wedding at Canyon Oct 2024, and had the most perfect day!

They were professional, quick to respond and very accommodating to our special requests! They were eager to work with us to make our dream wedding come true. I couldn't recommend them enough.

Great team to work with!

We hosted our wedding at canyon ski this past September and it was the most amazing day! From our first meeting/viewing of the venue with Robyn, to our last details walk through with Aaron, the team was so great to work with. We felt like they understood our vision and were willing to make just about anything work to help our dream come true. The food was amazing, we had so many compliments! Stunning views for the ceremony and great places for photos on site.

Great venue

The location of venue is perfect! Surrounded by nature and river. Great place to get pictures done. Inside venue is gorgeous and don’t need to do a lot of decorating. Fireplaces are very nice touch! You have option to do indoor or outdoor ceremony which is great to have incase weather isn’t great. Catering and bartenders are available on site which is one less stressor for a bride.

Beautiful July Wedding

We really enjoyed our experience with Canyon! Very much a one stop shop, as they make all of the food in house! Awesome that you have the potential to host your own bar. Their food is homemade with love and you can tell! You must get the garlic mashed potatoes, they were the most amazing potatoes we’ve ever had!!! You can dress the venue up as much or as little as you want. The main ski run makes a beautiful wedding backdrop!

Beautiful Day With Beautiful Memories

My husband and I had such an amazing experience working with Robyn, Aaron, and their team leading up to and during our wedding in October 2022. They were prompt in responding to questions, always willing to talk about what we envisioned and worked very hard to make sure that all of our guests were comfortable and needs accommodated. I couldn't have imagined a more perfect wedding day

The perfect venue for the perfect day

My husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Canyon, and the incredible experience they provided. From our first meeting, we were floored by the professionalism of the staff, and their willingness to go above and beyond to help our vision come to life. Despite the fact that it was not yet wedding season when we first toured the venue, they were able to paint a beautiful picture of what our day would be like. They provided us with countless options and ideas, and we were confident in our booking.

Leading up to our wedding, the staff of Canyon were only ever an email away when we had questions or needed to clarify anything. Everyone we dealt with was friendly and professional, and truly seemed to care about us and our day.

Our wedding itself was perfect, and we are so grateful. We weren’t able to get access to our venue the day before, as another wedding was happening. This made me anxious, to be honest, but I had nothing to worry about. Everything was immaculate when we walked in, and our vendors had no problem coordinating with Canyon to ensure everything was done. Both the ceremony space and reception area were set up beautifully, exactly as we had discussed. The staff were wonderful, especially the fun bartenders who entertained our guests all night! The food was incredible - our guests couldn’t say enough good things.

If you don’t have a venue booked yet, go check Canyon out! I guarantee, you will not be disappointed.
