We had our wedding at the Beaverkill Valley Inn in June and we have nothing but positive feedback for this venue. The staff at the Inn was with us every step of the way- they went above and beyond to ensure our vision came to life (thank you, Diana and Kaitlyn!). Everyone who worked our wedding, from the front desk staff to the servers and bartenders, was so polite and hardworking- something we truly noticed throughout the night, as it completely put us at ease. We knew that our guests were so well taken care of.
Our guests were blown away by how beautiful the setting was and they could not stop talking about how delicious the food and cocktails were. Seriously, my husband's grandmother still mentions the chicken every time we speak to her on the phone (thank you, chef Tommy)!. A friend also texted the next day to say it was one of the best weddings he had ever been to, and by far the best venue.
Staying at the Inn with our closest friends was like a big slumber party and the front desk staff treated us like family. It was truly the perfect day for us and we are so grateful that we chose the Inn as our wedding venue.

Originally, when we started looking for a wedding venue, everyone told us that the big day goes by fast and they couldn’t be more right. We loved how the BVI was more than just one whirlwind day, but an entire weekend that we could celebrate and spend with our family and friends and really enjoy our time with each other. That is just one of the many reasons why this place is so special - It is truly a weekend no one will everyone forget.
We so appreciate everything Kaitlyn and her team did for us from beginning to end. All her help during the planning process, how warm, welcoming and accommodating everyone was from the moment we walked in the door, the way she and her staff calmly dealt with the craziness of Friday (how things all changed at the drop of a hat because of a hurricane) and then on our day, the most beautiful day! We keep telling everyone how dinner plates just magically appeared for us and how special our moment alone after the ceremony was. And the whole family keeps talking about how beautiful the Inn is and how they all want to come back. We never felt stressed and I don't think anything went wrong!
Tommy's food was unforgettable and everything was incredible! Alex's brother and sister in law lived in Savannah for a long time and they said Tommy's shrimp and grits were the best they have ever had. The pastry chef’s carrot cake and tarts were beautiful and the perfect sweet treat.
And to top it all off, the s'mores by the bonfire with the clearest sky and the meteor shower!
The whole weekend was just perfect and that is not just because the Inn is amazing; you can really tell that everyone loves what they do and wants to share that.
Thank you so much to Kaitlyn, Tommy and all the amazing staff. We can't wait to come back and we look forward to having more special moments there!

Choosing Beaverkill Valley Inn as our wedding venue was an absolute dream come true - it's not just one of the best decisions we've made for our wedding. The memories we created there, the truly exceptional hospitality of the staff, the meticulous attention to every tiny detail, and the cuisine were simply out of this world.
Diana and Kaitlyn are more than just professionals; they're wedding day superheroes. Their unwavering calm and ingenious problem-solving skills are exactly what every couple needs, especially when facing unpredictable weather or guest-related challenges. They consistently went above and beyond our wildest expectations.
Chef Tommy curated a delicious menu and our guests were absolutely gushing about how delicious the food was. It’s rare that wedding food feels restaurant quality but at BVI it is! Every dish was cooked to perfection and was full of flavor.
The staff at BVI consistently exceeds expectations. Every time I encountered a staff member, they genuinely inquired about my well-being, offered assistance, and sought ways to alleviate any wedding day stress. It was a truly remarkable experience.
Beaverkill Valley Inn's setting is perfect - an ideal location for gathering your guests for a weekend getaway. From the welcoming front porch to the cozy fireplaces and the expansive property complete with bonfires to conclude your evening, it offers everything you could want. Our guests were constantly amazed, often asking, "How did you find this incredible place?" Their admiration extended to the Inn's staff as well.
Words can't fully capture the magic of this place, but I'm eternally grateful that we chose Beaverkill Valley Inn for our special day. We're already dreaming of the countless memories we'll create here in the years to come!

I can't recommend the Beaverkill Valley Inn highly enough as a wedding venue. We held our wedding there in August 2024, and working with Diana, the warm and attentive events coordinator, along with manager Kaitlyn and Chef Tommy, made the entire experience truly special.
Before we discovered BVI, my husband and I had been disheartened by the venues we visited in Upstate New York. While many were beautiful, they often lacked the warmth and personal touch we were looking for. That all changed when a friend suggested the Beaverkill Valley Inn. From our very first email, we were greeted with genuine excitement and care, and that feeling continued throughout the entire process.
The tour and the months of planning that followed were infused with kindness, patience, and a level of support that far exceeded our expectations.
The grounds are breathtaking—elegant but never overwhelming. The Inn itself feels like a home away from home, offering both charm and a range of activities for our guests to enjoy. Chef Tommy’s culinary creations were unforgettable, and the river beside the Inn provided a perfect spot for a refreshing cold plunge on the morning of the wedding, helping to calm any pre-ceremony nerves.
Our wedding day was beyond spectacular, and I can confidently say that Beaverkill Valley Inn played a huge part in making it so. If you’re looking for a venue with both natural beauty and a team that truly cares, look no further.

Beaverkill Valley Inn (BVI) is truly the most amazing venue for any outdoor enthusiast! Whether you are interested in having a wedding, a romantic getaway, or a family gathering . This is your last place to look!! BVI is warm , inviting, and offers everything you could possibly want and more! We had our son’s wedding here and it was the wedding of their dreams. The staff are very friendly and always attentive to our needs. The events coordinator Kaitlyn, is amazing! Her calm demeanor helped soothe our nerves! She anticipated our needs before we knew what they were! Tommy is the fabulous chef here. Every meal was 5 stars!!! We are still talking about his delicious wedding creations!! Also the pastry chef was exceptional as well!! Try their Oreo Beignets!! Overall BVI is a 5 star facility!!!

Working with the Beaverkill Valley Inn was a pleasure from start to finish. The staff made various recommendations about tested and vetted vendors for everything including tent company, florist, transportation, shuttles, etc. We used most of their preferred suppliers and were thrilled with all of them. Additionally, we used their recommended wedding planner to assist and we couldn't have been more pleased. She helped us scout the perfect band and photographer, and was an essential part of making sure all was on track the month before and on the wedding day. The day of the wedding was flawless. Three years later guests are still talking about the food, menu and pprofessional service. Equally important was the beautiful pastoral setting and kindness of the entire staff which insured a relaxed and joyful weekend for everyone.

My husband and I were married at the BVI in June 2021, and it was more perfect than we ever could have envisioned. Throughout the entire planning process, which included navigating the uncertainty of COVID, Kaitlyn and the entire staff at the BVI made us feel calm, excited, at-home and prepared for all the details that come with wedding planning. The setting and landscape are absolutely stunning, and created an atmosphere of serenity for us and our guests. You can honestly feel your BP drop the minute you pull onto Beaverkill Road and as a bride, that feeling was sustained throughout the entire process thanks to how much the staff at the BVI care and how effortlessly they handle the logistics. The food was above and beyond any wedding food we've ever tasted and is more comparable to a fine dining experience, and our guests are still raving about Chef Tommy's chicken 3 years later. The vendor recommendations made by the BVI were top notch and we had plenty of options to choose from. The staff were extremely professional and friendly, and every aspect of the experience had a personal touch which made us and our guests feel relaxed and ready for a good time. We regularly hear from friends about how much fun they had and how special the wedding celebration was for them, which is best feedback you could ask for. The entire day went smoothly and we wouldn't have changed a thing - we only wish we could do it all over again!

I grew up spending every weekend and summer a 10-minute drive from the Beaverkill Valley Inn, and attended day camp there, so the venue was already extra special for me. But even if I had never been before, I know I still would've been blown away by how magically it was transformed for our wedding on July 22nd. Literally, everything went perfectly, from the service to the food (DELICIOUS. People rave about it still to this day; a rarity for wedding food!) and I wouldn't have changed a single thing. The hotel portion is also the perfect size for accommodating your bridal party and lends such a fun vibe to the atmosphere when you can stay together all weekend. Couldn't recommend it more.

Mother of the bride perspective...We held a July 2023 wedding at the Beaverkill Valley Inn. The natural beauty of this place is not to be believed, it is remote without being too far from everything. The Inn holds about 30 people, perfect for the bridal party and family...there is lodging within 20 minutes and many Airbnbs for rent locally. Our ceremony was held next to the Beaverkill River with the sound of the water as our backdrop-could not have been more perfect. The Inn has a separate building which houses a gym, pool, basketball court and game room and a help yourself ice cream parlor! It was perfect for the after party! There are tennis courts and fly fishing - which is what this area of the Catskills is famous for-can be arranged on the world famous (to fly fisherman!) Beaverkill river. The gardens are planted with native plants that fit in perfectly with the landscape- very tastefully done. And the STAFF! we loved working with them. Inn Manager Kaitlyn and events planner Diana were gems-they worked seamlessly with our wedding planner. no detail was left unattended and they went totally above and beyond with their kindness and energy. Chef Tommy - wow. He and his staff turned out this amazing, locally sourced summer feast for our large group. We received so many compliments on the food.

PERFECT!
My daughter's October wedding was flawlessly executed by the staff at BVI.
The venue and the property were beautiful, and the support from the friendly staff was outstanding.
The food was great as well, and as we had a lot vegans in our party, the chef produced some fantastic vegan dishes.

Once we stepped foot on to the beautiful grounds of BVI and were greeted by the amazing staff we knew we found the best outdoor wedding venue... And that was in January! Throughout the planning process the staff helped make everything so easy, the world best wedding organizer took care of everything! The weekend of the wedding, in September, was magical and nothing was stressful thanks to the staff. They treated everyone like family and we were so grateful to share our special event with them. My guests found the venue to be relaxing, comfortable and fun, they didn't want to leave! The food was five star and my wedding cake was a hit among all guests! Originally my fiance was afraid of having a large wedding because he thought it would lack an intimate feel while my parents wanted to invite everyone they knew! What a dilemma! Thankfully the weekend at BVI allowed my husband to experience the intimate side while the inn was able to host around 90 wedding guests for the ceremony and reception to please my parents! It was just a dream come true! We can not thank everyone at Beaverkill Valley Inn enough!! Thanks for my magical wedding!

We were married at the Beaverkill Valley Inn on August 20th, 2016 and were entirely delighted with the facility and all the staff. We took over the Inn and our guests were thrilled with the setting and amenities. It is a gorgeous area with beautiful hiking trails, tennis courst, a swimming pool and lots of places to hang out and do nothing. The food was fantastic and they did a beautiful job with all the meals. Their pastry chef made our cake and the vendors they pointed us toward were all wonderful. This a beautiful and accessible location and I highly recommend it!

Where do I even begin? Our wedding at the Beaverkill Valley Inn far surpassed any expectation or vision that we had. Thanks to the incredible staff at BVI, we had our dream wedding weekend, from start to finish. The staff at BVI, led by Kathy and Galen, are so passionate about what they do and they go out of their way to make your experience as comfortable and enjoyable as they possibly can. Our guests could not stop telling us how incredible the Beaverkill was - how delicious every single meal was, how beautiful the property was, and how amazing the staff was. Michelle, Jackie, Sandy, Mary Ellen, Gail, and every other member of the staff that was present throughout our wedding weekend was an absolute joy and we are forever grateful. We hope to return to the Beaverkill Valley Inn many more times in the future and it will always hold a special place in our hearts.

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.
