Roughly $1,840-$3,360 for a full day, depending on season

This comes from Denver Parks and Rec's public rental page, since the lodge is city-owned. It's billed hourly, not as a flat wedding package. Peak season (May through September) runs $420/hour on Friday through Sunday and holidays, versus $230/hour off-peak (October through April). For an 8-hour day that lands around $3,360 peak or $1,840 off-peak. Capacity is up to 100 guests, there's an indoor ceremony area and a prep kitchen, outside catering is allowed, and registered nonprofits get half off.

This is a Denver Parks and Rec facility, not a private venue, which probably explains why one November 2025 reviewer called out the pricing as a highlight. Reviews consistently praise the staff, especially a facility coordinator named Mark who stayed on-site all day at one wedding, and another review said that when an outdoor ceremony got snowed on, the staff moved it inside without any problems. A wedding photographer described the building itself as a cabin crossed with a castle. It comfortably fits around 80 people with room to dance per one reviewer's estimate. Just note this is public parkland, so availability and rules differ from a typical private venue. the lodge itself sits up in the mountains west of Denver.
