Recommendations

Great place to hold a community event - An Eventective User from Estes Park, CO

The event staff was helpful, friendly, available, and reliable. (Special mention - Event Manager Tonya Russell.) The space worked well for our event. I recommend using the Estes Valley Recreation and Park District Community Center as a venue for a community event.

Thank you for choosing us and posting a review! :-)
Nice Informal Event Space - An Eventective User

We hosted a family meet and greet at the Bluebird Shelter the evening before my son's wedding. The space was clean and the view was great. It is nothing fancy but served our needs. We even had a herd of elk walk by to say congratulations. The only drawback was that there is no lighting so when it gets dark, it is time to go.

Management Response
Thanks for your review! Yes, the shelters at Stanley Park do not have lights, and the park closes at dark. Definitely something to keep in mind. The Marina Pavilion does have lights and parties can go later into the evening -- but it is only rented out May 1 through the first week of September.
Thank you EVCC - An Eventective User from Estes Park, CO

The Sisterhood Experience w/Tangled Silver Magazine - An Eventective User from Johnstown

We held our 1st Sisterhood Experience at the center and it made for the perfect location as our magazine is all about supporting our community! So, hosting the 1st event in Estes Valley's Community Center was perfect. Tonya and the staff were a delight to work with on our 3 day event! We will be back and I suggest taking a look for your events as the room is bright and airy with windows lining 2 walls. The kitchen access was amazing as well. We also rented one of the outdoor pavillions and it was great with the view as well. I love that we could also break out into smaller rooms as needed too. Thank you Estes Valley Community Center for helping us host our event at your venue!

Management Response
Thanks, Tangled Silver Magazine! We had a great time hosting your event and seeing all the ladies with STYLE!

Welcome Dinner for Wedding Guests - An Eventective User from San Diego, CA

We had a Welcome Dinner here the night before our son's wedding - total of about 120 people. From start to finish - this was an extremely positive experience! Tonya was so helpful and easy to work with. This venue was PERFECT for what we were looking for - The location was convenient and the scenery from the patio was amazing! I would absolutely recommend Tonya and the Estes Valley Rec Center for any type of gathering at all.

Management Response
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed your event at the Community Center -- and the beauty of Estes Park!

Wood Family Reunion at the Bluebird Shelter, Stanley Park - An Eventective User from Fort Collins, CO

What a great shelter and park to kick off our family reunion! Tonya Russell, the Event Manager, for Estes Valley Recreation and Parks District, was so knowledgeable and helpful in assessing our needs and desires for our reunion. The Bluebird Shelter was clean and ready for us, with available electricity, close restrooms and close parking. The cost was very reasonable. Our family had a super time in a beautiful setting! Thank you, Tonya, and your staff at Estes Valley Recreation & Parks District! We would definitely book it again!

Management Response
I'm so glad you enjoyed your reunion at the Bluebird Shelter in Stanley Park! I had many birthday parties for my kids there -- one of our favorite places in town.
