Travel Note
For out of town guests, especially those coming from sea level, please note the altitude at Estes Park is 7,522 feet. Most people can reach 8,000 feet without experiencing altitude sickness. If altitude sickness is a concern of yours, we recommend reading the linked website. If you are prone to altitude sickness you should consider staying in Denver (5,280 ft) or Boulder (5,430 ft) for an evening or two before heading to Estes Park. A gradual increase in elevation allows the body to acclimate. Drinking lots of water is also important.
Hotel
There is lodging directly on-site at our venue, with hotel style suites and multiple bedroom condominiums. This will be where the wedding party and family will be staying, although you are of course able to book alternate accommodation. Black Canyon Inn provides a variety of lodge and condo type accommodations within walking distance of all events throughout the weekend. We would highly recommend The Black Canyon Inn for ease of access! PLEASE NOTE: We are not able to have a room block for the weekend, so accommodations are only available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Additionally, Uber/Lyft is rarely available in Estes Park and so you will need to coordinate your own travel to/from an alternate lodging location.
