I recently held my Wedding at the Lodge on August 27, and I can honestly say it was "perfect". (I am extra critical because I am in the Event Planning industry myself). Every step along the way from booking the venue, to the actual day was an easy, flawless process.

The staff is absolutely incredible, and would do anything for their guests. They greet you by name with a smile, and take excellent care of you no matter your request. Anthony and Austin make sure from the moment you pull up that you are warmly welcomed, and will make sure your belongings (even my 2 cart fulls!!!) makes it to your room and is unloaded in a caring and organized manner.

Jennifer Fitzpatrick, Sales & Catering Coordinator, spent countless hours with me planning this perfect Wedding weekend. Jennifer was very professional and really knows what she is doing - by listening to my ideas/suggestions and also sharing what works best at their facility. She made me feel very calm and confidant every step of the way. Shelly and her staff in the Mirador restaurant made sure our Reception was exactly as I would have wanted it to be, and went way above and beyond any expectations I had regarding the whole event. She event color coordinated her outfit to match my special day!

Nicki and her staff at the Grouse on the Green made our After Party so amazing. Nicki has the best attitude and is very accommodating, a true example of an excellent hospitality professional. Marleen, Reservations Manager, took care of my guests staying at the hotel, who received an excellent group rate. She helped me rearrange rooms, handed out welcome bags and even let me extend my reservation at the same discounted rate.

If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend you try the Cordillera Suite. It's simply beautiful, comfortable and makes you feel at home with a Colorado Mountain flair. This room is HUGE and worked well for family/friends to gather in, and also for the day of for the girls to do hair/make up. The guest rooms all have incredible views, are extremely clean, and the beds are VERY comfortable. The housekeeping staff is excellent, and event put my fake flower petals sitting on the floor in a "heart" shape on the comforter after making my bed. Steve Janicek, General Manager, runs an incredible facility, and I would recommend it highly to any family/friends!

If you are even considering a Wedding, this is the perfect mountain setting... it's a little off the beaten path, but offers everything you could dream of and more.

I arranged a client event at the Cordillera this July (2011). I have worked with numerous hotels in the past but this was my first experience with Cordillera and I was so excited to work with them. Upon my arrival at the venue in Edwards, Colorado I found that the hotel and location were absolutely beautiful!! The staff was friendly, fast, and efficient. My event had several last minute changes and the staff at Cordillera worked quickly to meet our needs in the midst of our last minute changes and continued to be friendly and calm. The people at Cordillera were hands down the friendliest and most accommodating of any hotel I have ever worked with - I have never worked with a better team! Thanks again!

Thank you so much for taking such great care of our group. Cordillera was awesome!!! The best hotel I've ever worked with. Jennifer Fitzpatrick was amazing... You only had to ask her something once and it was done. I never felt like I had to worry if it was done. I wish all hotels were that way. Steve, who is the manager of the hotel, is the best...extremely nice guy!! They are all just amazing. Please know that we appreciated all of your hard work, and we look forward to a future opportunity of working together.

My company's annual executive meeting was the first major event I had to plan in my new position. With our company's top executives coming in from around the world, there were numerous details, constant changes and some very important people to please. The Cordillera staff immediately put me at ease and worked closely with my event planner and me. They kept in constant contact and accommodated every request efficiently and pleasantly. The location was perfect and definitely contributed to the productivity of the meetings. With the help of the team at Cordillera, our meeting was extremely successful, and I heard nothing but compliments from our global executives. I would highly recommend Cordillera to anyone!

I want to thank you both so very much for making the Group Executive Seminar a huge success. I heard nothing but compliments and I received two big "thumbs up" from both of my bosses. As I probably mentioned, I received this assignment after being on the job for one month. You can imagine how nervous I was, especially not knowing the people involved or the expectations of the event. You both, along with Debbie, the ski guides, everyone...made it all work. Everyone went the extra mile. I also learned a very valuable lesson: Trust people to do their jobs and they will come through! This has given me confidence as I tackle our huge trade show in Vegas. I hope we will have the chance to work together again and I will definitely recommend the Cordillera to any of my associates when they need a special place to hold an event.
