Taharaa Mountain Lodge & Twin Owls Steakhouse

Unbeatable views! The Taharaa team was great to work with and the venue is stunning. We are so grateful that we had our wedding here.

I can't recommend enough! Highlights of this venue and reception space include: the organization and communication from staff to perfect every detail, the bridal suite/getting ready room, and the gorgeous views and natural lighting in the reception room. The option for a lodge buy-out is also incredible and enhances the experiences of the wedding weekend! We and our guests enjoyed every bit!

I worked with Taharaa to help plan one of my corporate clients holiday party dinner. They were super accommodating, responsive, and took care of our clients. I am looking forward to working with this team again soon! ~Taylor Strope, Mountainside Events

I could not be more happy about Taharra Mountain Lodge/ Twin Owls Steakhouse hosting our wedding. For us, food was important and even though we didn't eat at Twins Owl prior to booking them, we knew having a kitchen would be better than just something catered. The views of this location was also made us say yes. Majority of our guests weren't from Colorado, so we wanted something enchanting and beautiful to help our friends and family fall in love with this state too. We're so fortunate to be surrounded by so much beauty. We knew we wanted to get married at St Catherine's Chapel on the Rock, so Taharra was certainly a convenient location for that. Although you might have to decide who'd be staying at the Lodge if you're planning a larger wedding, I'd 100% buy the lodge out. I absolutely loved working with Beth. And Vikki was such great help, especially during the weekend and having guests locking themselves out of their rooms! The only thing I wish we did, was stay a night before the rehearsal so we could have actually use the sauna and Jacuzzi.

We had our wedding reception at Taharaa Mountain Lodge in August 2023 and it was wonderful! Beth and Kathy were a great help in planning the event and the day-of-event staff were very kind, professional, and accommodating. We all had a great time and the views were stunning!

I struggle writing this review because Beth and her events team were amazing!! She was great to work with and very flexible. I am a strict vegetarian and Chef was very accommodating (stating he would dump his fryer, clean it, and use new oil that didn’t cook meat). The flow of events was perfect and the views were amazing. The whole lodge was bought out by our guests, so it was so fun to be around our loved ones! The issue was, on Sunday after the wedding and check-out, we heard our guest’s experiences with lodging. First, it appears that the plumbing did not work (looking at past reviews, this seems to be an ongoing issue with the property). Two room’s did not have water from the shower. These guests had to use other people’s shower’s (which ended up being 4 people to a shower). My sister-in-law’s toilet would not flush at all. These issues would have been frustrating enough, but what really was tough was how it was handled by management. When my father-in-law approached the manager, she told him to use a plunger, and when he told her that was not working, she told him there was nothing they could do about it and walked away. Also, when guests were checking in, she seemed flustered and made them wait until there was a larger group to do a check-in. If she was kinder about it, it wouldn’t have been an issue, but for my uncles, she made them stand outside, not giving water or the code to go inside, which at 85-90 degree sunny weather was unnecessary. Lastly, when my husband and I checked in, she told me I could have my breakfast in the bridal suite. I told my bridesmaids staying at the property that I would have a scrummy breakfast for them, but if they wanted to eat their breakfast from Taharaa they could eat it in the bridal suite. One of my bridesmaids tried to do this, was yelled at, and so my bridesmaids had to eat in the dining hall area, which separated the group and pushed back my hair and makeup artist’s schedule. It just seemed unnecessary for so many of my guests to be treated rudely. To be clear, I had none of these issues (I was treated very respectfully), but almost everyone approached Matt and I with a story they experienced. This reflects poorly on my husband and I. We had the most perfect wedding in such a beautiful area, so I would strongly recommend getting married at Taharaa and working with Beth (she was very professional and everyone loved the food–not always the case with weddings; 5/5 recommendation), but until they fix some of the plumbing and hospitality aspects, I would not recommend having guests stay in their lodging (Except for their honeymoon suite, this was a very lovely room; we would give them a 2.5/5 review for lodging). As an aside, we were told we could not hear cars at the ceremony site. Our ceremony was so lovely and beautiful, but if future couples are wondering the same question, you can very clearly hear the passing cars. Nothing we could do about it, but just wanted to let y’all know!

The venue itself is unmatched. Beth and the whole crew helped make our entire day so perfect. Every single guest kept telling us how stunning the view was, how delicious the food was, and how smooth the whole experience was. I can't recommend enough.

The Taharaa Mountain Lodge/Twin Owls Steak House was a beautiful setting for our daughter’s rehearsal dinner. The views of RMNP through large glass windows was spectacular. The staff, very attentive and the food, excellent! We appreciate everyone’s efforts for making our event memorable.

The staff was wonderful, food deliscious. Working with the team to set up the rehearsal dinner was efficient and easy.

We hosted the rehearsal dinner for 40 that evolved into a welcome party for 120. The staff was attentive, well prepared and the chef was amazing, even when we were running 45 minutes late! Beth was responsive and took copious notes on layout and transition a month in advance. It was the best pre-wedding event we could have had - buying out the venue for the night. Our guests were delighted with the welcome to the destination wedding!

An amazing venue to have your wedding in! We had the most amazing weekend staying on site and having our wedding ceremony with Taharaa. Almost every person on their staff was more than accommodating. Especially the owner Thad and motel manager Emma! Made to order from a menu of items breakfast each morning, coffee outside your door waiting for you, and attentive housekeeping staff. The views and rooms are amazing. I wish I could give them 5 stars because the majority of the staff and experience deserve it, however I feel it wouldn't be an accurate representation of the whole experience. We had several issues over the process of planning our wedding there with their head coordinator Kathy. Our communication with her was often confusing. She had clauses left in our contract we signed that she then went back on stating she forgot to change that detail or take it out; insisting on implementing the "corrected" items. We submitted our bar menu to her and the secondary coordinator had no record of it when we arrived on our wedding weekend. The secondary coordinator we dealt with during our wedding weekend was amazing! I'm sorry I don't remember her name but we wished she was who we planned with from the very beginning. She made things very easy and smooth for us. Kathy was not there on our wedding weekend, thankfully. The other issue we had was with our male bartender employed with Taharaa. I have had several family members tell me after our wedding weekend that he was very rude and/or abrupt with them. My parents and best friend surprised us with our dog being the theme at the bar. Stir sticks with his face on top and drink toppers with either his face or our initials logo. The male bartender refused to include these items in our guests drinks. The female bartender had no issue with this and tried to put them in our guests drinks but the male bartender told her to stop. My parents were hurt over this after the planning and money they put into this special small detail. We did not have a large guest count so I don't feel it should have been such a big deal to take a couple seconds each drink to include these items. It's not like we had super long lines of people wearing for drinks throughout the night. Overall though I would choose this venue again and despite this I would still recommend choosing this venue. The pros outweigh the cons!

Taharaa Mountain Lodge was the perfect location for our National Park/Winter Woodland theme wedding reception. The beautiful views out the huge glass windows were what really attracted us to the site. The location felt like a get-away but was still convenient for friends and family. The food was fantastic, staff was great to work with, accommodations were excellent.

Our wedding at Taharaa was the most beautiful day imaginable. Kathy and Beth were great to work with and responded quickly to emails/questions. This is such a beautiful venue that minimal decor is needed. The food from Twin Owls is amazing, we had so many of our guests tell us that this was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. Taharaa is not a cheap venue, but it is worth every penny.

This is the best place to get married in Estes. Literally EVERYTHING is included in their package: bridal spa for getting ready, day of food packages including breakfast, alcohol, and lunch, ceremony site, cocktail hour appetizers, dinner venue (including linens, flatware, stemware with champagne toasts), AND two nights stay in this massive MASSIVE suite. Their coordinator makes everything so easy. The views are stunning and the bistro/cafe lights for ambience are included as well. Very little is needed other than a few center pieces. Their staff are wedding pros and it is so nice to have everything in one place. We love The Taharaa and they made our wedding perfect

Aside from the amzing views and food, Kathy was incredibly receptive throughout the entire process. She guided us through the steps, start to finish, and we are so grateful we chose Taharaa as our wedding venue.

Kathy and the Taharaa team did so much for our wedding! It was a dream come true and we couldn’t have done it without them! They were such great communicators and made it so easy for us. The venue was amazing and all our guests loved it! The food was top notch, the scenery was great, and staying at the lodge was a true getaway. They truly made it an amazing experience and we couldn’t have picked a better venue!

This venue was everything we could have dreamed of and more! First of all, it is such a stunning mountain venue. The view is absolutely incredible and the reception room is stunning. There is a lovely bridal suite to get ready in and my whole wedding party raved about how seamless everything was over the weekend. Kathy was so wonderful to work with and responded to all of our questions throughout the planning process so quickly. Everyone was so kind and easy to work with, and was extremely flexible with some last minute changes we had. I truly could not have been happier with this venue. Our wedding day was everything we could have dreamed of and it was mostly thanks to this incredible venue and team!

My husband and I held our wedding at Taharaa Mountain Lodge, and I only have amazing things to say about the venue, the staff, and our overall experience! The lodge itself is unbelievable - it is luxurious yet homey at the same time, and makes for a wonderful mountain getaway for you and your guests. Vicky, the lodge manager, was so helpful with everything from accommodating for off-hours check-ins, any and all room needs, and of course, cooking delicious handmade breakfast every morning! Kathy, the event coordinator, was just awesome to work with. She truly made the wedding planning process easier and less stressful. She was communicative, detail oriented, and always willing to hop on a call or set up a meeting for wedding planning details. Her expertise in this field really came to light throughout our wedding planning process, and it was very much appreciated. The Twin Owls Steakhouse staff was professional and helpful, and the food is amazing! We got so many compliments on our wedding food Sandra, the owner, made my husband and I feel so comforted from the get go. It’s clear that she cares deeply about her guests’ experiences, and will do everything she can to make your stay, your event, or whatever it is exactly what you had imagined! Thank you, Taharaa Mountain Lodge, for making our dream wedding come true!

We recently held our Ceremony and Reception at Taharaa Mountain Lodge in the beautiful town of Estes Park, CO. We had an incredible experience! The staff was extremely friendly, helpful and kind to the wedding party and all of my guest. The food was so good, we highly recommend the "Elk Bites"! We were able to get ready on site and since the Honeymoon Suite was not ready, we were able to get ready in the beautiful Bridal Suite. We were worried about being outside on the patio for the reception, as the weather was beginning to cool, but it was perfect, they made sure we were comfortable and warm. I would highly recommend this location. We will certainly be back in the future to celebrate anniversaries!

We had such an incredible wedding, and it was in large part due to having Taharaa/Twin Owls as our venue. Kathy and the team were nothing short of amazing. The space was terrific, food was fantastic, and the views were...well...priceless. Thanks again!

Wonderful venue for our intimate 7 person wedding. Loved working with everyone, especially Vikki and Sandra. They were nice enough to store my bridal bouquet in a refrigerator so I could have them preserved the next day. The cake Vikki made was perfect, very simple vanilla cake with some blackberries as garnish. The area with the wedding pergola was beautiful. It wasn’t far from the lodge but it was tucked away from the hustle and bustle. Vikki even took my father up to the pergola with a golf cart the day of the wedding, as it was painful for him to walk. Communication was great, I would receive a response within 48hrs. The twin owls was fantastic. The food was great and our server was top notch as she gave lots of recommendations. Also, killer breakfast included with your stay at the lodge. I would highly recommend this as a wedding venue for weddings under 100 people.

I don’t know if I can adequately express how beautiful Taharaa Mountain Lodge was for our August wedding. First and foremost, the quick responses from Kathy Bell and team. I was ignored by NUMEROUS other venues and Kathy made me feel like my concerns and questions were valid throughout the planning of a destination wedding. Secondly, the excellent service the day of the reception. Servers and staff were amazing and they were so wonderful to my family. So helpful and supportive all the way through breakdown of the decorations and leaving. My sister (a chef) RAVED about the food at Taharaa. Chicken was moist, bison was tender, everything delicious! Lastly, the space itself. Taharaa is nestled into the Rockies, but it looks like it’s a apart of the scenery. Our wedding could not have been more beautiful thanks to the ceremony space. The outdoor pergola was perfect for our little wedding and the weather held out until after the ceremony. My husband and I were so impressed with the attention to detail all around. Thank you so much again, Taharaa! We will definitely be back for anniversaries.

My wedding was August 1st, 2021 at Taharaa Mountain Lodge. I had a great experience with the event manager, Kathy, and owner, Sandra. They were very helpful and answered all of my MANY emails in a timely manner, which is HUGE for a crazy bride! Kathy listened to all of my requests/questions and helped with all of the details! She also helped with the rehearsal and set up our dessert table so nicely for the reception! Kathy had the reception room ready to go right when we were allowed to set up, which was so nice and kept us on schedule! The venue was gorgeous! The new bridal suite was also really nice to get ready in! However, it was warm in there, so turn the AC on ASAP. Great views inside and out! The food was also really good, and the bartender was amazing! Wedding itself: no complaints! I would give them 5/5! However, the hotel staff there was just rude and impacted my experience. They did not make my family and guests feel welcomed and made them feel like they did something wrong when they just got there. This was embarrassing and such a disappointment for me, as I wanted my guests to enjoy their time after traveling from around the country. Warning: the hotel will NOT let you check in early and takes their time when checking you in. So, make sure you schedule your rehearsal time accordingly because this was a big frustration for me. Overall, great place to have a wedding, but not a welcoming place to have your guests stay.

The team at Taharaa/Twin Owls is AMAZING!! They went above and beyond & we couldn't have imagined having our June reception anywhere else. The view of the mountains is beautiful, the food/drinks are delicious, and everyone we worked with was so accommodating, kind, reliable and helpful. We had the best time!

The Twin Owls Steakhouse at the Taharaa Mountain Lodge, surpassed our expectations as the host for our rehearsal dinner the night before our wedding! We had gone through many versions of our wedding due to COVID. Although Taharaa Mountain Lodge was not our original venue, looking back on the evening we know we made the right decision with the level of professionalism and exquisite ambiance they provided with only two weeks notice! The views are absolutely incredible along with the food and the service that was provided to all our guests! Elliott is a phenomenal bartender creating unique signatures drinks and ensuring our glasses were always full! -- Thank you!

Spectacular venue with classic Estes Park valley views on display from the gorgeous dining room and large covered deck. The staff is absolutely top notch. If you are looking for a personalized wedding experience with extraordinary attention to the details that matter to you—book here! Taharaa is not simply a mountain event venue, but at its heart, a hospitality haven. The entire process of planning this wedding, including the stress of Covid restrictions, became pretty effortless under the calm, warm, and organized demeanor of Sandra Huerta, the proprietor and owner. This lady is unflappable! So grateful. Our daughter and her fiancee hoped for a day with beautiful multi-course food, spectacular flowers and candlelight ambience, and live jazz music. Taharaa managed all the details to perfection. We had six different vendors coordinating with their in-house staff for an unforgettable evening. Every request we made was accommodated. The food is a real star at Taharaa! Chef Rich has extensive experience with wedding fare. He was delighted to work with us to create a unique menu for our guests with seasonal and regional offerings throughout the evening. The house bartender created 5 lovely signature cocktails for the evening including a delicious non-alcoholic mocktail for our teetotaler friends and underage drinkers. Our reception was a classy celebration of love and life, in a very disappointing year. For that night, we forgot about Covid, and enjoyed an intimate evening swimming in beauty and joy! Taharaa and their gracious staff were always responsive, thoughtful, and courteous. Cannot recommend them enough for one of a kind, memory making events. Thank you, Taharaa! It really was perfect.

We had such an amazing experience at Taharaa Mountain Lodge. Even with management change a few months before our wedding we had such a smooth experience leading up to the wedding and on the day of. Couldn't ask for better views and people to work with.

Due to a mixup at our previously-scheduled venue, we were stuck less than two months out from our wedding in Estes Park without a reception venue. Without the super friendly and accomodating staff at Taharaa Mountain Lodge (and a lot of luck), we wouldn't have had the perfect wedding day that we did. Sandra and Thad were very responsive during our frantic process of re-planning, and couldn't have been more helpful on the big day. The views from the event room were breathtaking, the staff was great, and the local beer options added a really nice touch since we both love Colorado breweries. Taharaa was better than we could have imagined, and looking back we are so glad that everything worked out the way that it did!

Absolutely perfect venue for our mountain wedding! The staff provided excellent service, and the lodge and views were magical! Also, the guests that stayed in the lodge loved their rooms.

We were so thrilled with our wedding at the Taharaa! I did not have a wedding planner, but honestly felt like I did not need one because Terisa and the others are so on point! They asked the important questions and helped make our day run so smoothly! The venue is gorgeous , the breakfast at the lodge is ridiculous, and the people are amazing! We cannot wait to make many more trips to this special location.

Taharaa is majestic venue that sits high against the mountains in Estes Park, CO. We really enjoyed the team, occasion, and our stay!

This venue is top-notch and the personnel helped create a fantastic event. The staff helped with preparation, design, coordination, and flexibility whenever asked. A beautiful ceremony location, a welcoming reception hall, and a quaint atmosphere. A few billing mishaps, which were remedied, but overall, this was a perfect venue for our wedding. Thanks Taharaa!

Beautiful venue! We had our reception here as our ceremony was earlier in the day, and our wedding venue couldn't accommodate an earlier reception. The Great Room has absolutely stunning views! Terisa was very communicative and accommodating.

We had our wedding at Taharaa over Labor Day weekend, and it was everything we dreamed of! The location and staff were amazing. It was the perfect setting for the rustic mountain wedding we wanted. The staff was so helpful throughout the entire process. They were very responsive during the planning phases with many great suggestions for us. They were so accommodating and helpful from the second we arrived for our weekend, including all the set-up and take-down of everything. Meta and Teresa did a phenomenal job communicating and making sure everything ran smoothly. It was very stress free! And the location is SO BEAUTIFUL! I loved that the ceremony site was a walk across the parking lot from the reception hall, and there were views of RMNP from the reception deck. If we were to get married again we would absolutely chose Taharaa all over again, and we hope to be back to celebrate anniversaries!

I'm so happy we had our wedding at Taharaa. Terisa, Metta, and Josh were all so helpful, and I did not have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding - I knew it was in good hands. The rooms are beautiful, and the pergola, Great Hall, and deck were the perfect setting for an elegant (yet laid back) ceremony and reception. The views are breathtaking as well. Would recommend it to anyone!!

We recently had our wedding at Taharaa Mountain Lodge and it was perfect! I can not say enough great things about the venue, or Metta and Terisa!! The venue is not only gorgeous, but very functional for having an indoor or outdoor wedding depending on the weather. Both the indoor and outdoor options are beautiful, and our guests were so impressed by the venue! There are several areas to accommodate anything you want to add to your reception or ceremony. For example: we had a photo booth and a couple of lawn games, which fit in perfectly without compromising the space for the dance floor. We had 80 people at our wedding, and the venue worked perfectly, but it would definitely be great for >100 or <50 people as well! Metta and Terisa were seriously incredible. Our day went without any hitches due to their organization and help. From day one, they have been so friendly and responsive in answering all of our questions and accommodating all of our requests. They held a walk-through with us and also coordinated our rehearsal so make sure every detail was covered and that everything went perfectly. Additionally, they acted as day of coordinators and did a fantastic job. We were planning from a different state, and they made that process very easy. They are definitely experts in this area, and have thought of every detail possible. They did a wonderful job also of coordinating with our vendors to make sure everything went smoothly. They are both incredibly friendly and are a calm and organized presence throughout the process of wedding planning. Additionally, we stayed at Taharaa the night of our wedding, and the room was incredible! To top everything off, the breakfast was SO good too! I could not recommend this venue more highly!!

We could not have asked for a more stunning venue or more delightful staff to work with for our wedding! Terisa was the point person for our wedding and she handled all of the details seamlessly. I could always tell that she and the Tracy family were on top of things. We and our guests also loved staying at the Taharaa for several nights. The rooms are all stunningly beautiful (fireplaces, lovely decor, balconies with views, etc.) and the breakfast is divine! The staff here goes above and beyond. We will definitely be coming back for a future anniversary!

My husband and I got married at Taharaa Mountain Lodge in December 2016! We had our wedding ceremony and reception at this location and even in the dead of winter, we still were able to have an outdoor wedding on the deck that had the most incredible view of the mountains ever! It was freezing that day, but we still had the best experience and most perfect wedding we could have ever ask for! On top of the wedding being perfect, the staff at Taharaa Mountain Lodge made our day even better as they made it very laid back and stress free as they helped take care of just about everything! Meta and Terisa were absolutely wonderful and very kind to us and our family and friends, and if you are looking to have a destination wedding, look to Estes Park, Colorado and go to Taharaa Mountain Lodge! You will not be disappointed!

I wish there was a way to give them more stars! We just loved our choice with Taharaa! Terissa and Metta do a wonderful job of helping set everything up, getting everyone where they should be during the rehearsal and the wedding day, and just keeping the event going smoothly. We chose to rent all of the lodge out for family and friends, and that made the weekend even more special, because it was private and felt like a huge celebration. My guests were stunned by the views, location, and even the breakfasts each morning. Our wedding day was truly magical and perfect, and I think a lot of that had to do with this venue and the people working there. I recommend it to anyone and everyone!

My husband and I got married this past November at Taharaa, and it was absolutely wonderful. We first fell in love with the amazing views, but by the end of the whole experience, we'd fallen in love with everything about Taharaa. Besides being a beautiful and cozy lodge, it's also such a great place to have a wedding because you get to hang out with a bunch of your guests all weekend!! P!us, everyone who works there is so cool and helpful, and Terisa and Metta do so much to help you pull the whole wedding off. We highly recommend Taharaa!!! We can't wait to celebrate a whole bunch of our anniversaries there!! ;)

We had our wedding at the Taharaa Mountain Lodge this past September and it was absolutely incredible. From our very first meeting with them to the day we left they went above and beyond for us to help us create the wedding of our dreams. We were really looking to have a laid back mountain wedding with our friends and family and that is exactly what we got. The venue is incredible with gorgeous views and with the option to book the rooms for our family and friends it just made it feel like one big home. We had a really low key wedding and actually did not do a lot of the "traditional" stuff that weddings and receptions often have and their staff embraced that with us, which I really appreciated. Also, they did so many things to make us feel relaxed and really special leading up to the big day and especially on the big day. Breakfast is delicious every morning and the happy hours were great as well. It was everything we were hoping for and so much more! We are already talking about going back to visit soon! Thank you Metta, Josh, Terisa, and Thom- you guys are amazing!!

This was an amazing setting for our wedding weekend. I say weekend because we were the only event there for those three days. We ended up booking the whole lodge for our family and friends. They are a bed and breakfast and the breakfasts were amazing all three days we were there. The rooms were comfortable with amazing views and a real lodge feel. The great hall is bright, spacious, clean, and has a nice lodge feel with the antler chandeliers and fireplace, which served as the perfect place for our reception. The staff, especially wedding coordinators Metta and Terisa, were amazing. They went above and beyond to make the day of the wedding run smoothly according to our vision. From letting us come in early to decorate, to taking care of moving the gifts, and even running the bar. They worried about the details so we didn’t have to. They coordinated with all the vendors so everyone knew where to go and what to do. They made the wedding weekend very personal and stress free. We would highly recommend the Taharaa Mountain Lodge as a beautiful setting for any special event. It will be a weekend that we and our guests will cherish for a long time.

Come For the Views, Stay For the Staff Once you walk out onto the covered porch that joins the Great Hall, you will understand why you should have your wedding reception at Taharaa Mountain Lodge. What you will come to appreciate only during the planning and execution of your event is that, in addition to those views, you get a management team that is truly great to work with and committed to making your day as special as it possibly can be. The staff are involved from the beginning, and are able to help navigate issues and decisions, a lot of which you wouldn’t have thought of on your own! On the day of the event, set-up was flawless and neither the bride nor the groom were bothered once with any questions. Same with the execution of the event and the interaction with our other vendors – caterer, band, dessert, etc. We can’t thank the people at Taharaa for their help in planning and holding our event. And as for the space itself, our guests were in awe at the jaw-dropping beauty of Estes Park that is on display from Taharaa. We chose to put bistro lights on the porch, which made for a great “indoor-outdoor” space throughout the reception. And, we were lucky enough to have some elk join us outside for a brief time during our reception which was fun to watch. Finally, being able to rent out the entire lodge so every room was filled with friends and family was really special and made for a very “homey” feel the entire weekend. We couldn’t be happier we held our wedding reception at Taharaa Mountain Lodge and look forward to returning many times in the years to come.

Our daughter got married at Taharaa on June 13. The wedding and reception was perfect with the help and flexibility of Taharaa. They did all they could to make our stay and her wedding all she wanted it to be. Thanks Taharaa.

Taharaa Mountain Lodge was the perfect setting for our winter wedding. Terisa, the innkeeper, had great communication as this was a destination wedding for us. The room and scenery made it all the more enjoyable. An extra perk was the gourmet breakfast in the mornings with Josh. Everyone was friendly and courteous and had a great atmosphere. Our wedding was perfect and Taharaa went the extra mile to ensure our wedding was exactly how we envisioned it. Would highly recommend both Taharaa Mountain Lodge and our wedding photographer, Darcy Kiefel. Awesome for our intimate wedding!

We absolutely loved working with Taharaa Mountain Lodge, both in the months leading up to the wedding and the day itself. Excellent and thoughtful staff made everything so personal to us. We could not have been happier! Above the staff, the location is unparalleled. Beautiful views, and gorgeous ceremony and reception areas.

The space for events is large and open. They have contacts with a lot of great caterers. Were very accommodating. Rooms were very nice as well. Would have another event here!

I had my wedding at taharaa and I could be happier. The staff was amazing and helped with everything. I was planning my wedding for 2 year's and when it finally came that day I was completely stress free thanks to the staff at taharaa. We had booked the whole lodge and it was so incredibly nice to have all my friends and family staying there for 2 nights. The views from every window and balcony is amazing. My now husband and I loved very bit of our wedding. Before check out my husband booked a room for our anniversary next year. Love the staff and venue. I highly recommend it to any bride that wants a mountain themed wedding.

My son's wedding was held at the Taharra Mountain Lodge. The staff was very helpful from the planning stage to the actual event. They took care of a lot of the details like setting up and tearing down the the reception hall, leaving all of us to focus on the bride and groom. We had the entire place reserved for the wedding so for 2 days, it was all our friends and family in one place. The facility itself is a beautiful place with great scenery from wherever you are. Our wedding was in October so the colors were even more amazing. The elk paying a visit was a definite extra!!!!! The rooms are spacious and clean and include everything you need .Breakfast was good and filling and very relaxing for us.We were even able to take off and enjoy Estes Park the morning of the wedding, Thank you for making my son's big day stress free, beautiful and everything we dreamed it would be! All of our guests commented about the beauty of the facility and the caring staff. I would recommend the Taharaa for any special event!!!! Thank you again!

I had my wedding at Taharaa just a few weeks ago, and it really turned out SO well. The Taharaa staff were so great to work with. Everything ran so smoothly on the day of the wedding, and I never felt any last-minute stress. They were involved in every aspect of the wedding, from helping us plan the ceremony to helping our wedding guests with information about Estes. The breakfast is excellent - restaurant brunch quality, I would say. All of our wedding guests had a wonderful time at the wedding, and the guests that stayed at Taharaa were glad that they did! I would definitely recommend this venue to other couples, as the views are GREAT, and it's a little bit out of town, which is nice.

This weekend my husband and I got married-- it was absolutely amazing and a lot of the credit goes to Taharaa and their fabulous staff. Metta and Terisa are the best duo. Their attention to detail, great listening skills, calmness and professionalism blew us away. On top of that, their location is the most gorgeous of all the venues we toured. It was seriously the most picture perfect weekend. Thank you Taharaa team--we loved every minute and appreciate all of the work you guys did for us!

I think every bride says this, but I had the best wedding EVER and Taharaa was such a big part of the day's perfection! From the day that I expressed interest in the lodge the staff was professional, helpful and downright AWESOME! Our party spent the entire weekend at the lodge. Friday night started off with a warm welcome followed by an intimate happy hour. The day of the wedding, we woke up to a restaurant style breakfast that was delicious and started the day off perfectly. One of the most amazing parts of the day was the lack of stress I felt. Taharaa took care of everything from communicating with the vendors to setting up the reception. I was so impressed by their organization and accountability that I did not feel that I needed to micro manage the set up of anything and neither did my parents or the bridal party. The night was simply perfect and everything I had hoped for.

On the day of our wedding, the whole team at Taharaa Mountain Lodge took care of everything and everyone. They made the whole experience stress-free and it's easy to see that they truly love their job. I don't think we could ever repay them, the memories that they helped create are priceless.

The Taharaa staff did everything to make our wedding day the best it could be. My husband and I were so thankful and happy that we chose the Taharaa as our venue for both our ceremony and reception. The bed and breakfast a wonderful place to stay and the Taharaa ceremony site and great hall were breathtaking. We knew we wanted to get married here the second we walked in the doors. Just the view from the great hall will make you fall in love with it! The staff was impeccable- we have no complaints. They handled everything from decorations to coordinating all of the vendors for us. We are looking forward to coming back in the future!
