We loved Chief Hosa Lodge! We wanted a mountain venue that was beautiful and secluded, yet close to Denver for the convenience of our guests and that is exactly what we got! The lodge has a large patio in front that is a perfect place to hold the ceremony, the view is absolutely breathtaking. The inside of the lodge is very romantic with arched doorways, fireplaces, hardwood floors, an intriguing vaulted ceiling and a beautiful chapel room for an indoor ceremony. The bridal room is connected (with seperate entrances) to the ladies bathroom, which made getting ready very easy. On our wedding day, it was snowing (in May!) so inside we created a human aisle that lead the bridal party and I into the chapel room to have the ceremony. It made our ceremony so personal and intimate, it was amazing. We comfortably had 100 quests, a buffet, a bar, and a dance floor with a DJ. One of the most appealing parts of Cheif Hosa was that you can use your own vendors (caterers, alcohol, rentals etc.) This gave us so much freedom to plan our wedding exactly how we wanted, that you can never find at other venues. The site coordinator Jim Johnson, was very helpful and easy to communicate with. He had lists of vendors to help guide us with the planning and was always timely to responding to our questions. Cheif Hosa Lodge is the most romantic and intimate setting to have a wedding at and I HIGHLY recommend it.
