Thank you for your interest in Eldora Mountain Resort. We hope that the following
information we have assembled will aid in your most important task of planning
a memorable event.
You may only recognize us as a ski area, but we are pleased to offer our Indian
Peaks Lodge for your special event. It defines Rocky Mountain elegance with
elk chandeliers, alpine log accents, and walls of windows which frame spectacular
mountain views.
Located only 21 miles from Boulder and 47 miles from Denver, we are surrounded
with majestic scenery in a natural mountain meadow. With over 5,000 square feet
in the main seating area and plenty of room for dancing , this spacious party
room is the perfect place to hold an afternoon or evening celebration. The outdoor
area with a manicured lawn is perfect for ceremonies and extended wedding festivities.
We have separate areas available for use by the Bride and Groom as well as their
wedding party.
Eldora Mountain Resort is a great location for mountain events that have the
true Colorado Rocky Mountain flair.
We look forward to meeting you and making your event a success,
The staff at Eldora Mountain Resort.

Preferred Caterers
We strongly urge you to consider the caterers who are on our preferred list. They have worked hard to pass our standards and are very familiar with our facilities. If you are considering using a non-approved caterer or self catered event you will be charged an additional $500 fee.
Caterers:
Decorations
The following guidelines are to be followed when decorating for your event.
Indoors
- No glitter, confetti or silly string.
- Only use masking tape to hang/post things.
- Candles should be encircled in glass.
- Balloons on strings are permissible, however renters may be subject to a charge up to $5 for each balloon we have to remove from the vaulted ceiling.
Outdoors
- Birdseed, bubbles and butterflies are acceptable.
- No rice.
- No Fireworks or open flames.
- Balloons released outdoors should not have any strings attached and should be released away from trees.
- No glitter, confetti or silly string.
Alcoholic Beverages
Renter will comply with all pertinent laws, statutes, ordinances, and governmental and quasi governmental regulations including, without limitations, all laws, statutes and regulations pertaining to liquor.
Eldora Mountain Resort does not hold a liquor license during the summer. This allows you to bring in your own liquor to be served by a bartender. The caterer or yourself must carry Host Liquor Liability Insurance naming Eldora Mountain Resort as an additonal named insured and will provide a certificate of insurance as evidence of insurance to Eldora Mountain Resort. We recommend you have "last call" one hour before the end of your event as you must close the bar thirty (30) minutes before the scheduled end of the event.
During winter events, Eldora Mountain Resort must provide and serve all liquor. We can price open bar or cash bar options as needed.
We reserve the right to close the bar at any time during events if necessary, and/or refuse service to any individual guest. Guests should only be served one drink at a time and it is the bartender's responsibility to I.D. guests to ensure no underage drinking is occurring. Illegal or controlled substances are prohibited.
Caterers
The renter must use a licensed caterer. Use of caterers not on the preferred list will add $500 to the facility fee. Non-preferred caterers must meet with site supervisor at least four (4) weeks prior to the event to familiarize themselves with our facilities. All caterers must set up, break down and clean up. All caterers must have a signed copy of "Caterer/Vendor Guidelines" on file at Eldora Mountain Resort.
Caterers may bring food prepared, or ready to finish at the site, but may not prepare raw product in the staging area. There is not a prep sink available. The staging area does include:
- Convection oven
- Dishwasher
- Steam Table
- Upright Refrigerator
- Ice Machine
- Coffee Service
Deliveries should be made during your set-up time.
Site Supervisor
The site supervisor is an employee of Eldora Mountain Resort who is responsible for the safety of the site, its guests and for enforcing policies. It is not the responsibility of the site supervisor to set up, serve, break down or clean up. They will answer any questions and help to solve any problems that may arise.
Parking
Eldora Mountain Resort has plenty of private parking available for your guests. Valet parking services may be contracted at your expense.
Directions
Take the Boulder Turnpike (Hwy. 36) north into Boulder. Go west on Canyon Blvd. This turns into Hwy. 119 and leads you straight into Nederland. Follow signs in Nederland to Eldora Mountain Resort.
Seating Capacity
Total seating capacity is 225 guests. This would include a configuration of both round and banquet tables.
Safety, Conduct & Violations
In this mountainous environment, it is your responsibility to inform guests that caution is necessary and children are to be supervised at all times on the property. Your guests need to be aware of the dangers of a wildlife habitat.
Smoking is only permitted outside on the north facing (entrance) patio. This is subject to change during a fire ban where absolutely no smoking is allowed.
The conduct of guests at Eldora Mountain Resort is the responsibility of the renter. The site supervisor has the authority to ask disorderly guests to leave and to notify the police.
The use of Eldora's facilities may be terminated at any time by the site supervisor if the policies are intentionally violated or if any guest's conduct becomes abusive or dangerous to the site, its furnishings, or any individual therein. Should this action be deemed necessary, the damage deposit will be forfeited as well as the rental fee.
Wheelchair Accessibility
Eldora Mountain Resort is in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. There is an elevator available in the lobby as well as handicapped accessible restrooms upstairs.
