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.

The Cliff House at Pikes Peak has welcomed guests since 1873 — older than the state of Colorado itself. Built as a stagecoach stop on the route between Colorado Springs and Leadville, the property evolved into the area's premier mineral resort at the turn of the century and now stands as Manitou Springs' landmark historic hotel, nestled at the foot of Pikes Peak. Renovated in 1999, the hotel's Queen Anne Victorian architecture is preserved across 54 uniquely designed rooms and suites. For private events, The Cliff House offers more than 6,000 square feet of dedicated event space across multiple rooms, accommodating groups of up to 150 guests. The J.S. Morley Ballroom, at 2,500 square feet with 25-foot ceilings, serves as the property's most lavish reception venue. The Cathedral Spires Pavilion, an open-air space with fully retractable walls and mountain views, sits atop the East Addition and provides one of the most distinctive ceremony settings in the region. An award-winning culinary team and an 800-bottle wine cellar support all on-site events, and the hotel's dedicated event staff coordinates weddings, meetings, and private celebrations from start to finish. The Cliff House has held AAA Four Diamond status for both its hotel and dining room consecutively since 2001.
