Wonderful Venue - An Eventective User

Celebrated our daughter’s outdoor wedding here. Beautiful with the fall mountains as the backdrop. It was extremely relaxing and peaceful around the fire-pit for Cocktail hour because the staff was so supportive and helpful that everything

Fantastic Location, Helpful staff! - An Eventective User from Lynchburg, Virginia

We just finished up a wedding at the Peaks Retreat and Event Center, and I cannot speak highly enough of this extraordinary venue. The Peaks is down in a valley, and the surrounding mountains serve as a picturesque canvas, making every event truly magical. The facility was clean, well maintained, and had a little bit of everything that made the wedding PERFECT! One of the nicest things was the ability to rent the onsite lodging for out of State travelers. However, what truly sets the Peaks Retreat apart is the unwavering dedication and professionalism of their team. From the very first inquiry to the conclusion of our event, the staff demonstrated exceptional attention to detail and a genuine passion for ensuring a flawless and enjoyable experience. Their expert guidance and personalized approach in tailoring events to suit individual needs truly make a world of difference. They were with us every single step of the way and helped us with set up, clean up, planning and guidance during our day. I cannot say enough good things about them. They far outperformed every expectation that we had!!!!
