Brian was an absolute pleasure to work with for our Welcome Party (night before Wedding Day). The location, food and thoughtfulness in the details really made us and our out-of-town guests feel welcomed! They were a breath of fresh air compared to many other vendors when we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic. Words can't explain how memorable that night was for all of us! Pictures don't do this place justice, go visit in-person! Also, get the green bread!

I am on the planning committee for my company's holiday lunch and this year we chose the Craftwood. The food was outstanding! It was not a traditional holiday meal, which we did not want, but it hit all the right notes. Brian was outstanding to work with, he kept our budget foremost in his mind and really delivered. The building is beautiful as is the view and I just can't say enough good things! Thank you for a wonderful lunch.

Brian, Dave, and the whole crew made our wedding day on 4/27/18 unforgettable! Our first encounter with the Craftwood Inn was during their tasting where we met some vendors and got to taste a wide variety of Brian's delicious food. The Craftwood Inn was the first venue that we visited, and they set the bar so high, that despite looking at several… venues all over the state of CO; we couldn't picture getting married anywhere else. Brian and Dave were very professional, responsive, and accommodating. Throughout our wedding ceremony and reception, the entire staff made sure that everything

The Craftwood Inn is a beautiful venue for any event but was perfect for my friend's wedding. The owners are amazing to work with, the food phenomenal and the staff serving everyone at the wedding were equally amazing. I cannot say enough good things about the Craftwood and highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect wedding spot.
