Best weekend ever!!!

Our entire wedding (including guests!) all stayed up at Chautauqua for the entire weekend. It was great to have everyone so close for a weekend full of adventures, social gatherings, and love. Chautauqua was a perfect starting spot for all our trail runs, hikes, bikes rides, and dog walks. The staff at Chautauqua were incredible and helped make the wedding weekend so memorable.
