This historic venue was built in 1914 by John Charles Shaffer and his wife Virginia Conser. It included 8,000 square feet and featured 20 rooms, six baths and an 80-foot-long living room with mirrored fireplaces at each end. The Shaffers hosted many prominent figures throughout the years, including President Theodore Roosevelt. There was a 110-foot flagpole behind The Manor House that had a light inside. When it was lit, it could be seen from Denver, and was used as a sign to the social community to join them for a grand celebration.

Great Day!

Everything was beautiful day of the wedding. Communication with them throughout the entire process was always smooth, and everyone there was always happy to help. They listened to everything we wanted to do and were able to come up with ways to execute them. We used the same space for the ceremony and reception, and the ‘flip’ they did was amazingly swift. All of our guests loved the venue and so did we!

Incredible experience

We recently got married at the Manor House and had rave reviews - not only from our experience, but also from many guests in attendance!!

The venue is spectacular, warm, light, loungy, and fun. It's a beautiful blend of nature, history, and elegance. The staff is fantastic. Every detail is accounted for and the staff truly supports your day to be the best it can be. For us, having the food and beverage included was a highlight and made the day smooth and easy. All in all, we had an amazing time (planning through execution) and highly recommend this venue for anyone interested.

Best venue in CO!!!

The Manor House is just the perfect Colorado venue. The views are breathtaking, the house itself is just beautiful, and the staff is so incredibly professional and helpful. The views in combination with the proximity to Denver is unbeatable. We also got so many compliments on the food and we loved having the guest house as an option for getting ready! Kylie was so sweet and helpful as our coordinator and everything went so smoothly and perfectly with her help. We could not recommend this venue enough and we are so happy with our decision to get married at the Manor House.

The Most Beautiful Venue

We were lucky enough to book the Manor House for our wedding this past weekend and we are so glad we did. It was the most beautiful space- from the picture perfect background to the updated interior inside the mansion to the many places for our guests to mingle and take pictures, it was truly a dream. 

Kylie Swan was so great to work with as well. She was so helpful, very responsive, organized, knowledgeable and made sure that we had everything we needed before the big day to ensure everything went off without a hitch. 

I would highly recommend this venue and working with Kylie to plan your wedding!

Breathtaking, Romantic Destination Wedding Venue

We had our wedding at the Manor House in June 2022 and we knew the first time we saw it that it was the venue for us. It is a historic, elegant house with gorgeous indoor and outdoor spaces. We felt a true celebration of nature there with 360 views. There is an elegant wrap-around patio with multiple fire pits and terraces for guests to wander and explore, a gorgeous indoor bar, indoor seating areas that are already decorated, and inclusive staff/services/table settings. We had so much fun at the tasting and it truly took so much stress off the wedding planning process to know that all of the coordination, catering, and staffing details were taken care of. Our wedding flowed perfectly from one part of the event to the next and every little detail was taken care of without us having to think about it on the day of. The food was delicious. We could just relax and enjoy the time with family. We live in Denver but most of our guests were from out of town. They were blown away by the venue and the incredible staff. Definitely check this venue out!

Perfectly stunning venue with awesome staff

The Manor House is more than just a venue, but a full, well-designed experience. Plan well in advance, as dates book up quickly - but for good reason! We were blown away by the Manor House experience, from our first tour through our wedding day and after. First off, Kylie was simply amazing to work with over the 1.5 years of planning our wedding - kind, funny, attentive, helpful, accommodating, and ridiculously super responsive. On the day, Kylie was always available and continually checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed. The venue is the perfect mixture of beauty, privacy, outdoor space, and A/C (clutch for a July wedding). Both the House and the Ballroom are stunning by themselves, and hardly need any decorating. The ceremony view cannot be beat - it gave our wedding planner goosebumps the first time she saw the view of Denver through the Hogbacks. We also loved all the services provided - it made planning so much easier! All the food was delicious - we had a hard time narrowing down our dinner and app choices. The spaces for getting ready were well-stocked and comfy. We heard from our guests well after our wedding what a wonderful time they had and how impressed they were with the Manor House.

The most perfect venue for our June 2022 wedding!

We had our wedding at The Manor House this past month and cannot recommend them highly enough. We worked with Kylie from day one and she was so incredible to work with throughout the entire process. She was responsive, answered all of our questions leading up to the wedding, and took the stress out of the whole planning process. She was our coordinator on the wedding day as well and worked with all our vendors to make sure the day was even more perfect than we could have imagined. The Manor House takes care of food catering, bar packages, and the day-of coordinator, which meant we did not have to search around for all of those vendors separately. This also took a lot of stress out of the planning process as we felt that we could fully trust The Manor House to deliver in all of these areas. The food was incredible and they do a really good job of making sure the bride and groom are properly fed. They were able to accommodate signature cocktails with a few strange ingredients and made them super well. Last but not least, the venue itself is so perfect. You have 360 degree views of the foothills, red rocks, and even the Denver skyline outside. The decor inside is so pretty that you really don't need a ton of additional decoration. So many of our guests came up to us and told us how much they loved the venue, the food, and the drinks. All in all, we had such an incredible wedding and so much of it is due to Kylie and The Manor House!
