FAQs

Question

What is the easiest way to get to and from your wedding venue?

Answer

We will be providing party buses to & from Deer Creek Valley Ranch. If you wish to ride on our shuttles, they leave for the wedding from The Golden Hotel at 3:45pm & 4:00pm. Bring a drink, socialize & have fun! The shuttles will take you back to The Golden Hotel at 9:30 pm & 10:45 pm. If you choose to drive: Please arrive at The Barn at Deer Creek Valley Ranch by 4:45 pm. The ceremony will begin at 5:00 pm. Use address 64407 US Highway 285, Bailey, CO 80421. However, sometimes GPS can be misleading. Your GPS may tell you to turn at the first entry with large log poles and black gates - DO NOT TURN HERE! Keep going slow and on your next right will be a WHITE entry-way that says Deer Creek Valley Ranch above the gate, you will see the Barn. (Pictured above) Park in front of the Barn. Note: IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO GET UBERS FROM OUR VENUE. Please utilize our shuttles, or a DD.

Question

I'm worried about elevation, anything I should know?

Answer

Start hydrating a week before you come, and consider buying some electrolyte additives for your water so that you feel your best when celebrating at high mountain elevation! Drink more water than you normally would! Be sure to wear and re-apply SPF, we are much closer to the sun and you would be surprised at how easily you can burn.
