$600 weekday / $1,000 weekend for a 9 hour block

City-run facility, rentals run April 15 through October 15 only. 9 hour maximum block (must cover setup, event, and cleanup): $600 Mon-Thurs, $1,000 Fri-Sun and holidays. Add $260 if no outdoor alcohol, $440 if there is outdoor alcohol. Registered 501(c)3 nonprofits get a 50% discount on the rental fee.

- Municipal boathouse on Smith Lake, city of Denver runs the permits so this is closer to booking a park shelter than a private venue - Season is capped: April 15 to October 15 only, no winter dates - Reviews are mostly park visitors not brides, but they consistently mention the lake and skyline view and the area being clean and well kept - Rate card PDFs exist on the city site but were not pulled here, worth requesting directly before you commit to a date
