Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • Gather with your favorite people at this peaceful mountaintop inn, nestled within the shimmering mountains and lush woodlands of the San Bernardino National Forest. Made for intimate, deeply personal celebrations, the whole property boasts a welcome balance between a cozy lodge aesthetic and fresh-air charm, all at a price point that offers plenty of breathing room.
  • With every space centered around the panoramic valley vistas, the venue's versatile setup gives you options for a completely indoor or outdoor event flow, depending on your vision and style. You might exchange vows on the Patio or one of the many breezy Terraces as the sun dips below the distant peaks, then move the festivities inside to the warm, fireplace-warmed Great Room right off the main lobby.
  • It's easy to turn your big day into a big weekend with a full buyout, giving you exclusive access to the entire Inn and overnight lodging in ten custom guest rooms and suites—including a unique accommodation called The Hobbit. Your loved ones will treasure waking up to the fresh mountain breezes, exploring the surrounding trails, and mingling with you over a gourmet breakfast or evening glass of wine.

COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

What's included when we book The Sky View Inn, and what will we still need to pay for separately?

The Sky View Inn's Mountain Wedding package in Skyforest includes your ceremony and reception, all-day use of the indoor and outdoor spaces, tables, chairs, tablecloths, decor and coordination support.

Alcohol is bring your own. You can also reserve all 10 of the inn's rooms and suites for your group.

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at The Sky View Inn, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, both happen right at The Sky View Inn, so nobody has to drive between them. You can say your vows on the patio or terraces with valley views, then move into the fireplace-warmed Great Room or stay outside for dinner. The inn lets you customize where each part of the day happens, so your celebration can be fully indoors, fully outdoors or a mix of both.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to The Sky View Inn or do we have to use yours?

Yes, you can bring your own. Catering with The Sky View Inn is optional, so an outside caterer is welcome, though outside caterers can't use the inn's kitchen.
