being such a full-service venue. By having Tamara as our day-of coordinator, we saved thousands on a wedding planner. I cannot say enough good things about Tamara - she is a wonderful human and made our day so special - everything went so smoothly that I did not feel stressed on my wedding day and was able to fully enjoy every moment - which is truly priceless. She knows every detail about this venue inside and out - so trust her advice! This place is so stunning. The venue itself, the mountain views, the gorgeous florals everywhere you look, the lighting in the pavilion - it is simply perfect. The flexibility of this place is unmatched - every detail was customizable and they will work hard to make your day perfect. Our guests had an incredible time. The food was so delicious, the signature cocktails were amazing and they worked with us to customize them, and every staff member was kind, professional, and made us and all our guests feel like VIPs. I cannot thank Tamara and Sanctuary enough for giving us the perfect wedding day - we would not change a single thing!

owing in huge part to the Sanctuary.
The biggest shoutout to our coordinator, Chelsea. She has the most lovely, calming presence (which as a bride to be planning a wedding is SUCH a blessing). Every detail was perfection. I had absolutely nothing to worry about on the big day. I knew she and the rest of the staff had us covered.
And the food!!! OMG to die for. We got so many compliments from our guests from cocktail hour through dinner.
It is such a beautiful space you can spare your budget for florals and other decor, because truly, the building and grounds shine for themselves. Many of our guests said it was the most beautiful venue they seen.
I know the tab runs up quickly planning a wedding, but this venue is worth every penny. If you have the Sanctuary on your venue list, I highly highly encourage you select them, you will not regret it.

this review has nothing to do about the venue, but my coordinator Tamara. a month before the wedding she laid on me she couldn't decorate even though in the beginning she promised ...
that they could. It was one of the selling points & 3 other people heard her say that multiple times. it sounded like she couldn't do any of it. after a call I found out that typically she has an assistant and that day of my wedding she wouldn't have one which is why i believe that this is why there was a sudden change in mind. she told me that she would find an assistant that it would be okay. That all i needed to do was come to the rehearsal about 12 & build the alter, the day of the wedding have the groom/groomsmen come in to move the alter & that she ONLY needed them to move the boxes of my decorations. I made very easy and broken down instructions, it was organized, i made an index of where everything was, labeled very box & put a list on the outside saying was inside since i made all my decor. we show up at 1230, she forgot that i could come in early. then she is asking me how im going to get my cord and vow books as there is no table at the alter. I had already talked to her about putting a table at the alter over the phone. she forgot about that. then she made a comment of how "we weren't the only wedding that was making her do all this stuff this weekend" which tells me that we were not the only wedding she had promised to decorate for and did the same thing. Remember how she said she'd find an assistant? Nope she didnt have one. On wedding day i find out from my husband/groomsmen she was nowhere to be found for 2 hours. They did nearly all the decorating, including decorating ALL the aisle which she TOLD ME she could do. the audio guest book i had, which had instructions in it, was not turned on. I'm glad i caught it in time. Our cake topper? It had a missing piece. I asked where the frame was for it, she said "Oh i saw that but didnt know what it was for." I had place a picture literally right on top of the cake topper in the box so when she saw it, it would be the first thing she saw. I also emailed her about it. I don't understand why you would see a piece in a box, ignore the photo and just automatically think 'I dont know what this is for so Im just not going to use it'. she continuously rushed my girls and I to hurry only for her to hold off on starting the ceremony because there wasnt enough people there yet. She had moved the chairs from my side to the grooms side WITHOUT asking me or confronting me about it. I DID NOT tell her to do that for a reason! i only had about 30 people, my husband had about 120. so now it was completely uneven which I didn't want. also, we were told our locker rooms were private after 130. THEY WERE NOT. we had people walking in to use the restroom. She constantly forgot my husband and I were eating during cocktail hour alone.I understand that she has a lot of weddings, but these are very big things to forget. I feel like she should have taken better notes.
20 people from my party/family individually complained to me about her. They said she was a mess, all over the place, unorganized & was the cause of their stress on their wedding.. My DJ and photographers carried my wedding.The fact that 20 people complained to me w/o my influence is crazy. If you plan to have your wedding here, do not work with Tarmara. She will stress you out so much and honestly really kind ruined parts of my wedding.
Response from Sanctuary Golf Course on 09/10/2025
Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s important to clarify that while our venue coor...
dinators assist with logistics and timelines, they are not florists or event designers. DIY décor can be very stressful, and for couples who want specific decorative visions brought to life, we strongly recommend hiring professional florists and designers. This allows coordinators to stay focused on the many other tasks that ensure the day runs seamlessly.
Tamara is an extremely valuable member of our Sanctuary team and works tirelessly behind the scenes on many details that often go unseen but are vital to a smooth wedding day.
We’re happy that we were able to create an amazing event for you and are grateful for the opportunity to be part of your special day. We wish you and your husband the very best in your future together.

al to have your wedding be the only event happening at the resort. You won't have golfers etc in your photos. The staff at the Sanctuary is so organized. They literally wear earpieces to coordinate your day flawlessly. I could not believe how many staff members we got for the price. We loved the personalized drink they made with our theme and our guests couldn't stop talking about the guests and service. The wedding planners and forms they have you fill out make the actual day stress-free. It's the only venue that takes the weather stress out of a Colorado outdoor wedding. The heated roof made our guests very comfortable. We had the worst possible weather on our day with a heavy fog that looked like we were getting married in Ireland. Yet, the many beautiful photo spots made things work and the heated roof allowed us to be outside for the ceremony like we wanted. The venue does such a good job of providing guidance and suggestions while allowing the bride and groom to add their own personal touches. I loved how the coordinators took on the brunt of the work on the day of and we were able to just enjoy our party. Book the Sanctuary, you won't regret it!

My wife and I were just married at this venue last month, and we feel so lucky to have found them and their team. We knew we'd be surrounded by great views and a convenient locatio...
n, but it was Sanctuary's entire team that went above and beyond. From the first tour to all of our planning sessions with Julie - who was impressively thorough, organized, collaborative and accommodating - to the day-of service that impressed all of our guests, Sanctuary goes out of their way to cultivate a stellar experience. For the couple and the guests, every aspect of the wedding and planning feels designed to go as smoothly as possible. They know what they're doing!
Other things that we were especially impressed by: the food was amazing, which is one of the reasons we booked with them. We're glad to report that they lived up to expectations - we still have guests sending us pictures of steaks, telling us "not as good as Sanctuary's." The Pavilion is such a unique and visually interesting space that makes for a fun dance party.
We could gush for hours about how positive our experience was, so suffice it to say Sanctuary comes highly recommended. Again, a special shoutout to Julie for shepherding us through!

If it rained, snowed, etx, it was still in a great spot to not have that cramp the style! The food was delicious.

They provided a list of recommended vendors who they've worked with before which was very helpful for planning out of state. We were able to find great local vendors who both fit our style and knew how to make the most of the venue. Sanctuary is also extremely flexible in helping to accommodate our specific personal touches and making the day our own.
Most importantly, the food here is excellent. There are a wide variety of options and the venue is extremely flexible in accommodating various dietary restrictions.

To say that she is the best at her job is a gross understatement. She was extremely responsive in answering the plethora of questions my husband and I had prior to our wedding and accommodated any special requests that we needed.
We were so impressed by all of the Sanctuary’s staff members. A special shout out to Sarah who soothed our 3-year-old ring bearer when he was having a meltdown prior to walking down the aisle. She is a child whisperer. Everyone’s service and positivity throughout the night was extremely professional and very much appreciated. We received so many compliments from our guests about the 5-star service and the amazing food! The food at both our cocktail hour and dinner was fantastic!
We cannot recommend this venue enough! You will be well taken care of and feel like a part of the Sanctuary family before your wedding is over.

PSA: Save yourselves some time and pick this venue! I cannot stress how perfect everything was. When we toured the venue for the first time, we knew it was the one. It's tucked awa...
y in such a private location and everything is so stunning from the building to the landscape to incredible mountain range views. The other thing I loved about it was that I could have an outdoor ceremony without stressing about the weather. Our ceremony was held under their beautiful covered pavilion with the mountains as the backdrop which was then repurposed later in the evening to dance the night away. Such a unique space and it was the perfect setting for both the ceremony and the dancing. The other thing I must mention is the food. The food is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. So many of our guests reached backed out to us after our wedding to tell us how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the food was. Lastly, the service was top notch. The servers were amazing and we loved getting to work with Chelsea and her team to help us create the most memorable night. She was so wonderful to work with and she was always so quick to respond to our many emails which we also appreciated! Choose this venue for your wedding, you won't regret it!

We could not have asked for a better venue to have our wedding ceremony and reception. We worked with Julie Gambrell as our coordinator and she was phenomenally organized, responsi...
ve, and offered advice on what she's seen other couples do etc. throughout the whole process. The day of the wedding went incredibly smooth thanks to her, more so than weddings I have been a part of in the past. We received amazing reviews from guests on the quality of the food, attentiveness of the entire staff, and just the location in general. Our guests got amazing photos and they were able to feel like they were in the mountains without being too far from the city. If you are worried about weather, the ceremony and dance floor takes place in the covered gazebo, and that was a huge selling point for us since you can never predict Colorado weather. We ended up with a perfect day, but the next week was rainy, but we would have been fine either way. I can't recommend this venue enough!

ree different wedding coordinators over the course of our time working with Sanctuary and Chelsea Anders was ultimately the one we worked with on our wedding and she was wonderful to work with. Sanctuary is so naturally beautiful that it really doesn’t need many flowers or decorations. Our guests have all raved about how gorgeous our wedding and venue were. Thank you Sanctuary for (FINALLY!) hosting our dream wedding, we can’t recommend this venue enough to anyone looking for a beautiful Colorado wedding venue!

ibly helpful and responsive through everything! We wanted a venue with a mountain feel that wouldn't require our guests to make what can be a treacherous trek during the winter time, and Sanctuary delivered. The views are incredible and lend for stunning photos, and the venue itself is cozy and rustic. One of our biggest praises for Sanctuary is the food. It was absolutely amazing, and our guests still rave about it months after the fact. You can't go wrong choosing this place!

We could not be happier with our experience at the Sanctuary. From right when we toured it back in December 2020, we knew it would be our venue. The views are amazing, the food is ...
delicious, and the overall ambiance is just perfect. Upon booking, you are paired up with a venue coordinator. We were lucky enough to be paired with Chelsea, who was truly our biggest cheerleader during the planning process. We were planning from out of state, and her flexibility and patience through time changes, food tastings, and even the final walkthrough took so much stress off of our plates. She was always available to chat and was very easy to get ahold of via email. Our day went down as smooth as possible, and Chelsea was with us the whole time (even shedding a tear with us as we admired the day we had). Additionally, Sanctuary provides you with basic linens, chairs, tables, silverware, and food/bar are all in house, taking off a load of stressors. We could not be happier with our wedding day and cannot wait to go back someday soon. Thank you Sanctuary for hosting our perfect day!

We recently had our wedding at the Sanctuary, and we couldn't have asked for a more incredible experience. The venue itself is stunning - gorgeous flowers, waterfall, greenery, and...
a view of the mountains. We also found the venue to be so versatile and unique - we got married in the pavilion outside, and after dinner in the clubhouse, transformed the pavilion into a dance floor that our guests continue to rave about. The staff at the Sanctuary went above and beyond to make sure the entire event ran smoothly - Julie and her team executed every detail perfectly, and even was kind enough to save us some cake on our way home. It is an easy drive from the airport, and has great hotels and restaurants nearby for guests. In short - don't think twice about booking this venue it is the best decision we made while planning!

g from our food & drinks, setting up the décor, working with our other vendors to get them set up, she took all of the stress out of our day for the perfect wedding! The food here is incredible, both the entrees and hors d'oeuvre we selected were over the top! The service was also top notch, they had servers ready to attend to us at any moment for any reason and were all so very kind and professional. Even with a small hiccup with one of the other vendors we worked with, Chelsea was able to handle it so we didn't have to sweat a single thing! This venue has the BEST VIEWS of the mountain range as well as their course, and the venue itself is absolutely breathtaking! All of our guests kept commenting on how amazing this venue is - the waterfall alone is worth it! We cannot recommend Sanctuary enough, even being a COVID couple they were very willing and helpful working with us on rescheduling which cannot be said for many venues. If you haven't booked this place already - what are you waiting for?!

g day out of the water. Everything about this venue is so pristine- to the service to the stunning natural beauty, we were and still are in awe of The Sanctuary. The Sanctuary is so unique in that you can have your ceremony outside in the covered pavilion that frames Pike's Peak where you don't have to worry about Colorado's infamous late afternoon storms. Your guests then move to the breathtaking terrace overlooking the Rocky Mountains. Dinner is served inside the classic, stunning clubhouse, and then we opted to have our dance back outside under the stone pavilion. We had such a wonderful experience working with Julie as our wedding coordinator. She was so on top of everything that we didn't have to worry one bit leading up to our special day. We even had a chance to meet the General Manager, Rudy Zupetz, who was also so helpful and amazing. The staff that they have trained here are all just incredible and go over the top to make sure everyone is having an exceptional time. The next day, my husband and I tried to think of anything that went wrong and we couldn't think of a thing- it was perfect. This venue takes care of it all for you. The compliments we received on the food , service, and overall ambiance of the venue were countless. So many people told us that our wedding was like a fairytale and I 100% can say it was because of The Sanctuary. At the end of the night, my friends, family, and I didn't want to leave because it's just such an incredible place! Trust me when I say you can not go wrong with booking this wedding venue. It is hands down the best decision we made in our wedding planning journey.

Sanctuary is an absolute dream!!! We just can't say enough good things - they are incredibly organized and assist throughout the planning process to ensure every detail of the day ...
is accounted for. They have exceptionally friendly and helpful staff who made the whole experience so easy and smooth all day long! We worked closely with Julie leading up to our event, and she is so detail-oriented, a go-getter, and prompt to reply - she just keeps things moving and gave us the ease of knowing everything would be carried out properly on our wedding day! The space itself is as beautiful as you can find, and I loved having the indoor/outdoor aspect to our day. We have gotten tons of compliments from guests on every aspect of the day - the stunning views/venue, delicious and properly cooked/warm food, friendly staff...etc! We are so grateful we found Sanctuary!

rough the gate. The entire space is spectacular and full of immaculate details, and save for ceremony and centerpiece florals, we didn't need to even consider other decorations. The food is incredible, and the chef was happy to create custom items for us. As an out of town couple planning our wedding during the pandemic, the flexibility provided by the venue and staff was so reassuring. They helped us to schedule our site visits/tastings to coincide with our travel plans, and it really made no difference whether we were planning from across the country or down the street. Chelsea was our day-of contact, and even though she had multiple weddings each week once Covid-19 restrictions started lifting, she made us feel like ours was the only event she had on her plate. If there were any issues, we never even knew! Our wedding felt so luxe and exclusive, but it was honestly way more affordable than other venues we looked at when you looked at catering/decorations needed for other locations. Go with Sanctuary, you will love it!

Our wedding was an absolute fairy tale, and Sanctuary was a big reason why! The venue itself stands out on its own as one of the most beautiful venues in the area, with incredible ...
views (especially at sunset), and a mountain lodge feel. On top of all of that, the staff at Sanctuary made everything flow so well. Steffany and Dani were so great to work with, and they truly care about making everything perfect for you. They were very responsive and took the time to get to know us, and made things so easy for us the day of. Their support staff also did a great job of getting everything our timely, and making sure all our decorations were placed correctly.
Lastly, the food was AMAZING. People have not stopped talking about our hors d’oeurves since the wedding. They do a great job at your tasting of letting you try multiple options, which turned out perfect for us.
We had so many compliments on our reception at Sanctuary, with some guests saying it was one of the fanciest venues they’ve ever been to for a wedding. We are so glad we picked Sanctuary, and couldn’t recommend it more!

t the planning process, not to mention so kind and genuinely caring about your day. We were recommended to great vendors who were a joy to work with as well. The day of our event came together perfectly, without even a hiccup which was astonishing. The preparation meetings we had ensured every detail was accounted for and staff the day of event were all amazing, helping pack things, load our car and make sure we didn’t have to stress about a thing. The price for The Sanctuary is very comparable to other rustic venues we looked at but you cannot beat the beauty of this venue. The outdoor pavilion takes your breath away day and night and the mountain views and sunsets are absolutely stunning. Our guests all loved the venue, food and event overall and we honestly wish we could throw a wedding there every year. We highly recommend them.

es, etc. With Sanctuary, everything was straight-forward and you get so much included with the cost of the venue. We couldn’t believe that we got a “built-in” wedding planner, and I honestly couldn’t have done it without Steffany! She was incredible throughout the entire process and made sure every little detail was perfect.
The entire staff is personable, professional, and so easy to work with. They made sure everything ran smoothly for the tasting, meetings, and the actual event. The food was incredible, and the chef personally came and talked to us during the tasting to ensure everything was up to par.
My husband and I were completely blown away, and our guests were blown away too! Don’t look anywhere else – Sanctuary is the real deal.

olorado, we realized it was right in line with similar venues. We do not regret one thing about having our wedding at The Sanctuary. We dealt directly with Steffany while planning and on the day of our wedding. Steffany and her team were so well organized and precise that everything went off without a hitch. We chose to do a buffet at our wedding, and the food was hot, served timely and absolutely to die for!!! high recommend the Sanctuary for both a ceremony and reception!
