Welcome to Surf Hotel, a riverfront retreat in the adventure town of Buena Vista. Inspired by the understated elegance of European design and the independent spirit of Colorado, we provide a curated, yet relaxed hospitality experience for travelers from all walks of life.

The Lariat offers something most venues can’t: the soul and energy of a real music space with seamless private-event execution. From custom menus and customizable cocktails to a built-in professional stage, sound, and lighting, your event flows from dinner to speeches to dancing. No extra rentals, no friction. Perfect for weddings, corporate events, and private parties, all set in a mountain-modern space in the heart of downtown Buena Vista. Walkable, inviting, and designed for connection. The Lariat has been a fixture of downtown Buena Vista for generations and has a rich history that spans over a century, being constructed in 1885 and made with bricks manufactured south of town.

Wedding packages at the Loft Theater in Buena Vista give you the freedom to make your wedding day entirely your own – within the budget that’s best for you. Our heart is to create space for your wedding-planning process to be fun, not stressful! As it should be. That’s why we have structured our packages the way we have. When you book with us, our staff will be ready and excited to make your Colorado mountain wedding dreams a reality.

Welcome to The Beach, an indoor/outdoor ceremony and reception site on a beautiful sand beach on the Arkansas River. Located right outside the charming town of Buena Vista, The Beach is the perfect wedding venue to accommodate a weekend of festivities and celebration. With the 14,000 foot Collegiate Peaks as your backdrop, you will be surrounded by a sand beach atmosphere on the riverfront. Hold your ceremony by the river and enjoy cocktail hour on our sand beach, followed by dinner and toasts in our full service bar and restaurant just yards away. Finish the night outside watching the sun set behind the mountains, having drinks around the multiple fire pits, or celebrate inside and dance the night away. Weddings at The Beach offer all-inclusive packages that cover nearly every aspect of your celebration, from catering to bar services. We can't wait to host you!
