Beautiful New Year’s Eve wedding!

Loved gp! Highly recommend!

I never would have thought about having my wedding here, at a "ski resort." We are not skiers. What drew me here was a picture!! The inside of the Tent (seasonal location) was breath taking!! We were scrolling and clicking on EVERY venue listed. NOTHING had that "oh la la" appeal. My FH went to bed and I kept looking. Then, I came upon GP. The next evening I showed him and he said, "If you want it then let's make an appointment!" So I reached out and left a message. The Wedding Events Coordinator (Chelsea) got back to me in a timely manner and we set up a meeting. She showed us around to their other locations on site. Then we went into the Tent. And it was ABSOULTELY BREATH TAKING when we were inside!! It was definitely LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!!!!! Chelsea talked to us about what GP has to offer, as far as wedding packages, etc. We booked GP by the end of 2021; and we just got married last month! In order to have your date, the venue and at the exact location on premises you want- you need to book ASAP!! Chelsea is an EXTREMELY busy woman with a lot on her plate!! I do think she needs an assistant especially around wedding season!! Lol!!! Chelsea does a wonderful job by herself, even though she does have a "team" that does wonders too!! She helped us through the whole process and gave some personal insight. She's very thorough with every single detail. She was AWESOME to talk to, deal with and plan with!!!! The food was AMAZING!!! Our guests couldn't stop raving about their appetizers during cocktail hour, the main meal for the reception (we picked out Country Side Glam Buffet), their cocktails, their rooms, and just the ATMOSPHERE itself is enough! The staff also plans meals for food allergies- a lot of other venues don't cater to this! Inside the Tent, it didn't feel like you were in a Tent. Don't judge a book by it's cover! Lol! We were the only wedding there on our day, so that definitely made it feel more special and enjoyable! We enjoyed working with Chelsea, the staff and Greek Peak!! The prices were extremely affordable! Some of my family and guests didn't REALLY want to travel 1.5 hours (minimum). After the wedding, they understood why we chose to have our wedding at Greek Peak. We, our families and friends, and other guests would HIGHLY RECOMMEND GREEK PEAK for a wedding, a getaway, a honeymoon. You name it!! Thank you so much Chelsea, Greek Peak's staff & Greek Peak!!!!! Our Wedding Day was PERFECT!!!!!!!!

Beautiful space, delicious food, and our dream wedding

Greek Peak provides it all: accomodations for out of town guests, numerous ceremony locations, and numerous reception venues, delicious food, and a beautiful setting. My now husband and I were floored by the prices to reserve other wedding venues and the sparse additions they offered. For our wedding, we needed a place where all of our guests could stay or spend the weekend after travelling across the country and across the state to celebrate us. Our rehearsal dinner was held at and catered by Trax and our bridal party had so much fun. Our ceremony was held under the Portico, providing much needed shade for a summer wedding, and our reception was held in the Lodge Tent. Chelsea, the event coordinator, was attentive and communicated timely throughout our wedding planning process. She gave my husband and I a tour of all the possible ceremony and reception locations, and even took us into the different guest rooms and honeymoon suites to ensure our needs could be met. On our wedding day, every detail was perfect and aligned with our vision. Chelsea and her team were caring, flexible, and thorough and our wedding day was beautiful! Our guests loved the amenities offered at Greek Peak: an indoor water park, walking and biking trails, the outdoor adventure center, the spa, and restaurants. The price to reserve Greek Peak's "Lodge Tent" for a Saturday wedding was $3500, and that included a free on-site ceremony location! Compared to the expense of many other venues who do not include the aforementioned amenities, it's a 'no brainer' to choose Greek Peak. If you're looking for an all-in-one venue, we strongly recommend Greek peak!

Loved our wedding

We had a lot of trouble finding a venue that would give us the wedding weekend we were envisioning when we started looking in 2018. Everything we found that fit our vision was over our desired budget. We found Greek Peak because my mom had attended a conference there and decided to visit due to the great packages and things to do. When we first visited, while we liked it a lot, we honestly weren't sold on the available ceremony venues. However, we took a chance and sent Ben Sills a dream photo, and he and the team found the perfect place to match our vision! We were sold after visiting that new spot, and from that point on (early 2019 or so), we had the pleasure of working with Chelsea Flynn. I just tallied it up, and there were about 340 emails exchanged with Chelsea in total between 2019 and our (postponed) wedding in 2021, many of which were focused on options as we went through the pandemic, and many more were spent asking questions and finalizing the little details exactly how we wanted them. Through it all, Chelsea was courteous, friendly, professional, and very patient! She and her team went above and beyond to answer our questions and accommodate our wishes, even as they evolved over the past few years and through the pandemic. There are countless examples, but I will focus on the wedding weekend. Chelsea was there for our rehearsal, and then arrived early for our 5am hair/makeup start with the food we ordered and to check in. She was responsive via phone/text when we had questions. She helped drive me and my parents over to the ceremony, chatted with us while we waited to get started, and helped make sure that ran smoothly. She then made sure everything was set with the cocktail hour and reception and checked on us during the reception. The catering staff and bartender were also so kind and helpful! The whole weekend was beautiful and was exactly what we always hoped for - thank you so much to Chelsea, Ben, and the whole team for making our dream a reality!

Our dream wedding

Hope Lake Lodge was a beautiful and the perfect wedding venue for us. The entire day before our wedding, the day of, and the day after was absolutely perfect.

We worked with Chelsea Flynn for the majority of the time, and also Ben Sills. Talk about a dream team with them and their staff.

Chelsea is an amazing planner who is super organized and lets no detail go unnoticed. She also dealt with my Type-A, marketing/production planner myself, and all along I felt like we were a team. She got me. We were constantly on the same page with all steps. She kept us organized during the crazy moments, and also calm that her and her team had everything.

The day of, the set up was perfect. Cocktail hour was such a hit, and we had it in the main lobby of the lodge. Reception was such a dream, with how the staff set up the room, turned over our gift table to the desert table. They stayed with us, and made us feel so welcome. We LOVED how they came up to my husband and I at cocktail hour asking if we wanted a plate of all the apps served (heck yes, because we didn't get to have ONE). It was the little things like that, that really touched us the most.

Our guests loved the food and service; we felt it was a huge perk that we had plated salads and dinner rolls on the table when we went to the tent. Chelsea and team accommodated special Finger Lake wine, to have them uncorked on each table - another special detail.

Chelsea worked with all of our vendors and made sure they were on the same page. It's very important (at least to us) to have a Catering Director/Event Planner like that - someone willing to go above and beyond with contacting your vendors. It's with her dedication to our wedding that helped make it a dream.

Waterfalls Spa also did our bridal party hair and makeup. While I made the schedule, they stuck to it, and were even ahead of it by a full 45 minutes. I was really stressing over the time each of the girls was getting their services done, but had NOTHING to worry about! I do have to say, some of the hairstyles did not hold up, or we had to do some quick make-up retouches in the room. Overall though, we cannot complain, and had another enjoyable service!

Our guests made several comments to us (and still are) about it being one of the best weddings they've been to. The lodge itself provided accommodations, entertainment, dining and an overall awesome experience. A lot of our guests made a long-distance trip for our wedding, and a mini-vacation out of it! It was great to see our family taking advantage of the area; they loved the mountain coaster, waterpark, dining and the walking trails all around.

You really have an all-in package with choosing Hope Lake Lodge.

Thank you Chelsea and team for an unforgettable weekend.

We planned our wedding at Greek Peak from our home in CA but the whole process was very easy and pleasant. We worked mainly with Chelsea Flynn, the catering manager, throughout the process and could not have been more pleased. Chelsea was attentive and informative and helped us put together the entire event, from rehearsal dinner to reception. She also was in contact with our florist, photographer, cake baker, and DJ to ensure everything went smoothly. She was very flexible and allowed us to schedule in-person meetings around our trips to NY and used phone conferencing when necessary.
The venue is beautiful and all-inclusive, offering food, accommodations, entertainment, and numerous options for ceremony and reception location, depending on your wedding size and preference. The surrounding area is picturesque and the resort has everything you could need. The rooms were wonderful and the decor was great. All of the staff went above and beyond to make our guests and us feel truly taken care of.
The resort also has a full service spa, where my bridesmaids and I got ready before the ceremony. Everyone in the spa took such great care of us and it really made for a relaxing and fun experience. We were given a private room to unwind between services and were even brought food.
We are so pleased with our experience working with Chelsea and the rest of the staff at Greek Peak.

Wedding in the Taverna at Greek Peak Ski Resort

Receptions at Greek Peak are a great value! We held our reception on the ski side in the Taverna. Our guests stayed at Hope Lake Lodge across the street. A shuttle was provided for guests to get between the lodge and the reception. The staff was very responsive to our inquiries and questions from the very beginning. However, the event coordinator was difficult to work with at times and she often made it feel like we were inconveniencing her. The food was average, nothing spectacular, but our guests were satisfied. All in all, Greek Peak is a great way to save money, allows for personalization and flexibility, is in a beautiful location, and has the convenience of the lodge for guests to stay.

We utilized Hope Lake Lodge as our primary accommodations for out-of-town guests, our honeymoon suite, bridal party (getting ready, hair and makeup, bridesmaid sleepover, etc.), as well as a Sunday wedding brunch for the bridal party. The woman we worked with months before the wedding was friendly and quick to respond to help set up the room block and reasonable responsiveness for the brunch! Our coordinator for the room block was flexible and nice enough to help make sure that we were in a beautiful suite for the girls and I but that the room could be partially closed off to a smaller 2 floor suite for my new husband and I to use as a newlywed suite, which would be refreshed for us after the girls and I had used it. The suite was beautiful!

The problems came when we actually utilized all the services our wedding weekend. 1. Our wedding welcome treats were at first missing and then I found out (witnessed myself) being handed out to the WRONG wedding 2. Most disappointing, I appropriately requested cleaning services after we were done with the suite morning of the wedding and it was NEVER refreshed to use as a newlywed suite for my husband and I. I made them change linens for us so we didn't have to spend the first night as newlyweds in a bed slept in by my sister-in-law (yeah imagine that for a minute). 3. We found out toward the end of the stay that in reality our suite had actually not been cleaned in days before we even reserved it 4. Our private area reservation for the Sunday brunch was again given to the WRONG wedding!!

The entire place is a gorgeous wooden lodge with beautiful suites and views and wonderful food once we ate brunch. In the end managers were also apologetic, comped us our wedding night, and made up in additional ways which we were thankful for! We still felt it important to list these points for improvement though in hopes that communication regarding cleaning services and multiple weddings are improved at a higher end resort.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
