The Cheyenne Cañon Inn is a Mission-style historic mansion at the entrance to North Cheyenne Cañon in Colorado Springs. Originally named "Sunnycrest," the home was built by Lillian Casey beginning in 1918 and completed in 1921 — a striking example of the era's architecture that became a social landmark in its time. Over the decades the property served various purposes before John and Barbara Starr restored it to its lodging roots in 1993, giving it its current name. The inn is now operated by owner Jeannie Bryant, who has continued its tradition of hospitality while also making the property available as an event venue. The inn hosts weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, birthday parties, anniversary dinners, workshops, and musical concerts. Guests arrive to a setting framed by the red rocks of the canyon, where deer and birds gather daily and the grounds offer a natural complement to intimate gatherings. The venue invites callers to schedule a tour at 719-471-4150 to experience the space firsthand.

Gazebo Island sits at the center of Green Mountain Falls, a mountain community nestled at 7,800 feet in elevation just west of Colorado Springs, surrounded by Pike National Forest. The focal point of Lake Park, the Victorian gazebo was built around 1890 during the era when the town was developed as a summer resort — the lake itself was man-made, with the island created to hold the structure. A boardwalk was added in the 1930s and the bridge standing today was built in 1990, connecting the island to the surrounding park. The gazebo was fully restored in 2008. The town rents the gazebo for weddings, ceremonies, anniversaries, and private events. The structure features four electrical outlets and eight interior hooks for hanging baskets or decorative arrangements. Restrictions include no balloons, birdseed, rice, artificial flower petals, open flames (unity candles excepted), or alcohol. Contact the Town Clerk by phone or email to reserve the space.
