Wine Fest

We know! You've called every hotel and B&B in town and no one has a room! At the time of this post, we still have rooms available for Winefest, so book now!

Well, Wine Fest weekend is THE biggest annual event in the Grand Valley and tends to book up 6 months to a year in advance. So if you don't get a room, call now for next year!

But you don't have to go to WineFest to enjoy the local flavors... the wineries are open year round and many offer tours. Also, many area restaurants feature local wines, so if you aren't able to get a room Wine Fest weekend, book another day in September and enjoy all that the Grand Valley has to offer! While you are at the inn, don't forget to buy a hand painted wineglass, featuring Colorado Wildflowers, by artist Peg Oswald!
And...the farmstands are open until the end of the month...
