Say 'I do' with breathtaking views: overlooking the South Fork of the Colorado River, amongst the trees, or on our wedding deck at Little Indian Lake.

AVR boasts Little Indian Lake for canoes, paddleboarding, and mountain views. The South Fork of the Colorado River flows through, offering stunning valley vistas, meadows, hiking with a kissing swing, and river access for fishing and swimming.

Our historic Lodge features Colorado's smallest bar, living rooms, billiards, fire pit, and decks overlooking the lake and mountains – ideal for guest greetings and hors d'oeuvres. The deck serves as a stage and space for food/bar service and dancing.
