Vail Area Site 020603treasure

Tucked away on a path that goes nowhere (no kidding--it dead-ends right after one of the shops), is a site that offers easy access and is easy to find.

It offers a picturesque, little bench as well as a creekside spot to enjoy the sounds of Gore Creek as you exchange your vows.

What we love about this site:

Easily accessible
It's a four-season venue.
Centrally located allowing for pictures to be taken in other locations for different backdrops.

Potential drawbacks of this site

Just off one of the main walkways through Vail, so it could get noisy.
Parking is limited.

Accessibility

If you are planning a Colorado mountain wedding between these dates, please thoroughly read this blog post so you'll be driving the right type of vehicle. (Don't rely on the car rental companies to fill you in on this; our experience is that they don't.)
