Seeking a little "treat yo'self" post hike relaxing, my hiking companion and I made our way to…read moreAvalanche Ranch to indulge in a little soak and self-care. There's so much to love about Avalanche Ranch: 1) Views on views! The 3 hot springs are situated to make great use of the landscape and offer some epic views of Mount Sopris. I chose to stay in the hotter 2 pools during my visit, and it was delightful. 2) They offer a limited number of soak passes per day; which means you get a really relaxing intimate experience. 3) If you're in the mood for a little pampering, they do offer massages! Totally work the indulgence. The therapist takes the time to get to know your specific body needs and helps work out all the knots and kinks. 4) They offer up a variety of accommodations on-site for those that are seeking more of a retreat type experience. Apparently, we booked our massage and soak the same day as AppleFest. While that could be a lovely experience full of pot luck goodies and folk music, it was a bit frustrating to not have been told in advance. Parking was pretty full upon arrival, and it was packed when we left. Oof. Just not prepared for all that during this visit. All in all, Avalanche Ranch was a great way to loosen up some sore stiff muscles. I'd easily make my way back to indulge again. **Pro Tip: Feeling peckish? You can bring in your own food and drinks!

It was over the top, awesome, so good. I am hungry as I type this review and wishing I had some of her wonderful food now. We wouldn't change a thing. It was all perfect. Including her great personality. We look forward too many more occasions with Katie and her crew. Thank you for making our event so special.

Aside from cooking for us at home weekly, Katie also catered my wife's bridal lunch, and her friends are still raving about it. Not only do we love Katie's cooking, but we love her. We highly recommend Eat. Do yourself a favor and choose Eat for your next event.

Shane and Marlene's photobooth was the hit of our party. I can't imagine doing another event in…read moreAspen without them. They were super fast to respond to my emails when I had questions before the event, I got to design my own green screen backdrop​, Shane was there early to set up, the set up worked perfectly, the print outs were high quality, all the images were delivered to me via email the next day, and they even stayed at the party longer than we planned because everyone was having such a good time taking pictures. I can't recommend them more highly.

Shane and Marlene were FANTASTIC to work with! Their prices were extremely fair, they were open to…read moresuggestions and ideas I had, and were very easy to work with when coming up with our backdrop and personalized designs. Many of our wedding guests had great things to say about them, and how involved and fun they were to work with! They graciously stayed late until everyone had a chance to get all the pictures they wanted. We received a link with all of our pictures the following morning, less than 12 hours later. They were very prompt with their communication and made the whole process easy and fun. I HIGHLY recommend them!!

What an awesome golf course. I'm sorry I can't give it five stars because of a few things that I…read morethink are important. I get the feeling it was a private course and they would probably like to stay private but need the money of the general public and for that reason I feel as though they have a little bit of a attitude toward nonmembers playing there. When asking the woman in the pro shop about getting paired up she said there was no one else playing if I wanted to pair up with other people (which I did want to) then I should go over to River Valley Ranch because they are busier and I would probably get paired up. Also when I asked about if they had GPS on the golf carts or yardage books or any maps of the golf course(because we have never been there), her reply was no but they do have them at River Valley Ranch maybe you should go there. And oddly enough my golf cart died after 13 holes and I had to limp back to the pro shop and swap carts. I think that's kind of ironic considering that there was really nobody there but yet I had a dead golf cart. So even though I love the golf course, I think it's overpriced for the service and the lack of amenities. Maybe they'll get enough money to go private again and they'll all be happy.

From the moment we met Jenny, we knew we were in incredibly capable hands. She was the epitome of…read moreprofessionalism, yet she also felt like an old friend guiding us through the process. What truly set Jenny apart was her meticulous attention to detail - she thought of absolutely everything, showing her deep knowledge and expertise. Her experience working in the Roaring Fork Valley also allowed us to plan our wedding in a condensed timeline, connecting with vendors easily and moving through the steps more quickly than we would have on our own or with someone not local. She navigated the curveball of a late April Aspen snowstorm with ease and our guests haven't stopped talking about how our wedding was one of the most memorable (in the best way possible!) they've attended. She brought our vision of a relaxed yet elegant ceremony and reception to life and we are so grateful!

Jenny is a true gem in the wedding industry. I cannot say enough good things about her and…read morerecommend to everyone that they hire a wedding planner. She was amazing to work with during every step involved in the planning process. From our very first meeting I instantly felt at ease and knew that we were in the best of hands. Jenny comes with an impressive background in event planning. She knows the in's and the out's of the industry and has amazing resources that aided in keeping us on track and organized. Just when I thought that Jenny couldn't get any better...she literally saved the day for our ceremony! Our DJ got stuck in traffic on his way to Vail and was unfortunately not able to make it to our wedding. We found out the news approximately two hours prior to our ceremony start time. Needless to say, I was panicking...but Jenny wasn't. She calmly approached me to fill me in on the situation. I very clearly remember her telling me "I've got this. Give me some time and I will find a replacement." Within FIVE MINUTES we had a new DJ hired. I cannot speak enough regarding the importance of hiring local vendors who know the area and have connections in the area. Jenny didn't stop assisting us once our wedding was over either as she assisted us in negotiations with the DJ for a reimbursement. I will never be able to thank Jenny enough. I went from being incredibly overwhelmed planning a destination wedding to feeling so at ease and confident with the professionals that I hired. It is an incredible thing seeing your vision come to life and I truly don't think my vision could have been executed without Jenny's help! Now that my dream wedding has come and gone I feel even more grateful to have made an amazing friend in the process.
