Deciding the have our wedding at the Beaverkill Valley Inn was the single best decision we made regarding our wedding, aside from the decision to get married in the first place! We... are a couple living in Brooklyn but knew we wanted a place outside the city in the Catskills and that we wanted a lot of people to stay at the venue and have the whole weekend to celebrate.
The Beaverkill Valley Inn exceeded all expectations! First, the property is huge! There are 19 rooms (including a wheelchair accessible room) that our family and friends stayed in Friday-Sunday, which is more rooms than any other place in the Catskills we visited! It was like staying at an Air B&B but with a staff and incredible meals included! The food is all seasonal, local fare and it was incredible from rehearsal dinner Friday night, to breakfast, to the wedding and the cake. They have great local beers on tap! We didn't need to bring in anything, which was such a relief. We had bonfires Friday night & Saturday night, everyone got to hang out and relax, swim in the indoor pool, go for hikes. There are all kinds of game rooms, a self serve ice cream parlor... it felt like grown up camp!
The wedding itself was beautiful and the staff was on top of everything, it went so smoothly and I still can't get over how much fun we all had and because we had the whole weekend, we never felt rushed, we could truly enjoy every moment and spend time with everyone. Kathy, the coordinator-- is a pleasure to work with and you can trust that you are in good hands with her and all of the staff, who were just nice, good people who went above and beyond to make our wedding special. We've attended several weddings in the Catskills, but this place is such a gem at such an amazing value and includes so much (especially compared to the high costs of a lot of other venues in that area), I feel like we were in on a secret-- this place is totally under the radar in the best way and our guests were so impressed. The Beaverkill Valley Inn makes it easy and that takes so much of the stress out of wedding planning process, I can't say enough great things about this venue & it's staff.
