Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Set on over 200 acres just minutes from Durango, this lovely property spans the La Plata River, and is dotted with hundreds of shade-giving cottonwood trees. Encircled by a stunning valley panorama, it’s an ideal choice for a nature-forward mountain wedding.
- The banks of the river can serve as your ceremony site, with cocktails on the lawn and a reception in the gorgeous handcrafted barn. You also have the option for a tented or open-air outdoor dinner, with cake and dancing in the barn.
- There are ample places for overnighters at Blue Lake Ranch, the center’s on-site lodge. Many of the accommodations have been designed with families and large groups in mind, and feature spacious kitchens and gathering areas, patios, and cozy fireplaces.
