Tegan Sent on 25/07/2023Wedding Weekend of our Dreams
We booked Hillside for our wedding 2 years ago, without ever seeing the venue. We booked it based off of some photos and the idea that we could spend the entire weekend with our friends and family. When we arrived the day before the wedding, we were blown away. This place is pure magic. The owners are so kind. The fact that you have access to the entire property for the weekend is mind blowing - it has everything you need and more! The view for the ceremony was stunning, the barn was beautiful, the cabins are super cute and the BBQ area was awesome. Our guests can't stop talking about this venue.Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Tegan and Landis thank you SO much for the kind words. I have already told you but will tell you again - your group of people and the two of you are absolutely incredible. This was one of the kindest collective groups of people we have ever had here! Thank YOU for choosing Hillside and for trusting what we do. We take pride in cleanliness and taking care of this beautiful spot of the earth we get to live on and love nothing more than when people see it! :-)
We wish you a life time of love, health and happiness - you two seem meant for each other from the short time we got to witness you two together. -

Jaclyn Sent on 22/11/2022Amazing wedding venue!!
We got married at Hillside this past August (2022) and can’t recommend it enough. Stef and Mark are incredible to work with, and the venue is stunning! We really wanted a ‘weekend venue’ where friends and family can stay on site, and have a bbq the evening before our wedding. We love the mountains so it was also important to us to have a scenic outdoor ceremony. Stef and Mark also made great vendor recommendations, and since all of the vendors work together so frequently, they ran such a well oiled machine all knowing each other and working together! We had SO many compliments on our venue choice and people asking how we found this hidden gem. You will not regret having your wedding at Hillside!!Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Oh Jaclyn! You are the sweetest! You two and your group were a highlight of our summer for sure! I very much appreciate the kind words. -

Robin Sent on 18/01/2022Dishonesty kept deposit
They wouldn’t allow us to pick a new year when Covid shut it down. After much back and forth agreed to give back HALF our deposit if someone rebooked on our date. They couldn’t even honor that. Someone rebooked on our date- they posted it on their Instagram page and they still didn’t give back part of our deposit.Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Hi Robin - I am sorry to read this kind of review from you.
You agreed to a non-refundable retainer when you signed our agreement. We are not obligated to refund anything.
Re-booking was not an option as COVID made everything uncertain. I am sorry you feel you needed to post this on the internet rather than speak to us directly. The booking we had for your date was last minute and at a significant discount.
Please know a cancelled wedding is a HUGE financial loss for us. The retainer is not even 1/4 of the revenue we would make in a weekend.
The thing with agreements is that when you sign them, you agree to the terms.

Jessica Sent on 12/02/2019Incredible Venue!!
Stefanie & Mark were incredible! So accommodating. We had our wedding the Canada Day long weekend. The venue was everything we could have dreamed of. We rented the plank wood tables - best decision we made - it helped bring the vibe we were going for our reception. The cabins were so cozy and all of our guests still keep talking about the weekend. We loved spending time with family and Friends BBQ and by the fire pits the day after the wedding! We hope to rent out the cabins with family and friends in the future!! -

Colleen Sent on 10/02/2019Beautiful All in One Mountain Wedding Venue
Hillside Lodge and Chalet's is an incredible venue for a wedding. We had our wedding there on September 15, 2018, and every aspect was magical. The owners, Stefanie and Mark are incredibly kind, caring, and attentive. We were able to come for not 1, but 2 tours of the venue prior to the wedding. For the actual wedding, it truly is a one stop shop. We were able to have our rehearsal dinner there using the Campfire and BBQ's they had on site and we could set up the reception area the night before. They have multiple cozy cabins, a greenspace for tents and a few trailer areas along with a spectacular honeymoon cabin, so we were able to... -

Hillside Lodges & Chalets- Magical Mountain Wedding
Hillside Lodge & Chalets was an incredible wedding venue for our rustic yet classic wedding. The location is absolutely stunning- close to Golden and amenities yet surrounded by tranquility and beauty. The scenery is so surreal, in our photos the mountain backdrop looks like a green screen! The location and buildings were so beautiful, we didn't really feel the need to decorate. The lodging was cozy, well maintained and accommodated all of our many family members. We appreciated all of the amenities available for all of the weekend's events.
The hosts, Stefanie and Mark, could not have been more personable, hospitable and helpful right from the start. Stef was very attentive to all of my questions, and provided... -

The best! We couldn’t have picked a better place to tie the knot !
Our weekend wedding at hillside was absolutely amazing. It was just perfect having the whole weekend with family and friends. We never felt rushed so there was lots of time to soak in all those beautiful moments. Stephanie and family are lovely hosts. They don’t micro manage but are very responsive if you need anything. The scenery can’t be beat either! We highly recommend this venue.Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Thanks love! It was so nice to have you guys. Hope you are well. Hope to see you again some time - even if it's just because the road is closed and you need sneaky back road directions! :-) -

Ashleen Sent on 06/02/2019Perfect Mountain Wedding Venue
We still can't believe such a perfect venue existed for our wedding. It is exactly what we would have dreamed up and was perfect for us as we love the mountains and the outdoors. The owners were super friendly, helpful and accommodating but also made us feel as though we had the place to ourselves and gave us lots of privacy. We loved having full access to the property for the weekend and the ability to bring in our own alcohol and vendors of our choice. The cabins were perfect for our guests and we loved having everyone right on site. Vendors in Golden are very familiar with Hillside and had no problem coming out for Hair and Makeup...Hillside Lodge and Chalets's reply:
Ashleen - you are a gem!! We talk about you guys and your crew often! Many thanks for the kind words.
