CREATE AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE!
CHEROKEE RANCH & CASTLE FOUNDATION offers one of the most unique venues in Colorado. Whether you desire a unique business meeting, an inspiring presentation, or a personal reception, booking a private event at Cherokee Ranch & Castle can be the most memorable and successful experience. Events can be hosted in a variety of ways. Mid-May through Mid-October dates accommodate up to 150 guests making wonderful use of the elegant Veranda Tent, the front Courtyard, the Castle Great Hall, and the covered back Terrace with its amazing panoramic views. Events can use these spaces individually or in almost any combination! Bookings during later October through mid-May allow for a smaller, more intimate event generally based in the Castle Great Hall, which handles 75 guests comfortably. December events book very fast, as the Castle and its grounds are decorated for the holidays. All bookings allow for knowledgeable docents to greet your guests for stationary tours allowing guests to learn about Cherokee Ranch & Castle history, the antique furnishings, the collections of masterworks of fine art, and the dynamic former residents of the Castle. You will have the attention and expertise of the Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation (CRCF) private event team to help make your dream event come true!
What Our Clients Are Saying....
To James Holmes:
I have submitted my County Survey with the highest possible rating for Cherokee Castle!
The Cherokee Ranch & Castle Foundation is an ABSOLUTE Jewel for Douglas County and should be held in the highest possible position for public use and recognition as such.
With our recent event at the Castle, I cannot say enough about the beauty, setting, and hospitality of all of the docents and employees! Bar none, the Castle fulfilled our dreams of a fantastic evening with many guests from all corners of our Great Country and Canada.
