Cannot recommend highly enough!
If we had to do it again, we would rebook the Sky Retreat immediately. They were super friendly and easy to work with. You cannot beat the views. It felt like we were on the edge of the world. We were also able to host our rehearsal dinner here which was very helpful. Our close friends loved staying in the cabins on-site, and we did too. The reception banquet hall is beautiful and modern, and it complements the views outside very well. I cannot recommend this venue highly enough, and I have already recommended it to a couple of my newly engaged friends! I highly recommend adding the donkeys and goats to the reception. They were a hit with our guests and offered a unique wedding experience!If we had to do it again, we would rebook the Sky Retreat immediately. They were super friendly and easy to work with.

Sky Retreat was the perfect wedding venue, offering breathtaking views and a stunning setting for our special day.

A Magical Experience
Our wedding at Sky Retreat was magical! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful fall day to say our "I Do's"! The folks at Sky Retreat were so amazing and helpful every step of the way. The views were gorgeous, the ceremony was perfect, and the reception was fantastic. Our guests enjoyed the cabins on-site as well! Our day would not have been anywhere as perfect without the help of Sky Retreat!Our wedding at Sky Retreat was magical! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful fall day to say our "I Do's"!

Highly Recommend!
We had our wedding at Sky Retreat, and really enjoyed our experience. The customer service was fantastic, and everything was delivered as promised. The cabins were beautiful and very clean, and all of our guests commented on how absolutely spectacular the venue was. The massages we received from V&B Experience were also a wonderful touch. We highly recommend considering having your wedding here!We had our wedding at Sky Retreat, and really enjoyed our experience.

The Sky Retreat: Stunning Views & Fantastic Service
Sky Retreat in Purlear, NC, honestly feels like a little slice of heaven for anyone tying the knot. First off, let’s chat about the mountain views – they're absolutely breathtaking! You’ve got these stunning panoramic vistas that make every photo look like it’s straight out of a fairytale. Whether you’re gazing out during a sunny day or catching the golden hues of sunset, it’s like Mother Nature herself RSVP’d yes to your big day.
Now, onto the staff. These folks are the real MVPs. They’re super friendly, incredibly helpful, and always ready with a smile. It’s like having a team of fairy godmothers and godfathers making sure your day goes off without a hitch. From the moment we started planning to the final send-off, they were there, offering support, advice, and sometimes just a calming presence.
And then there’s the customer service. Top-notch doesn’t even begin to cover it. These guys are attentive, responsive, and genuinely care about making your day special. They're quick to tackle any little hiccup and are all about the details, which, let’s be honest, is what makes or breaks a wedding day.
In summary, if you’re dreaming of a wedding with stunning scenery, a team that treats you like royalty, and service that’s as smooth as your first dance, Sky Retreat is your spot. It’s not just a venue; it's an experience – one that you and your guests will remember fondly for years to come.Sky Retreat in Purlear, NC, honestly feels like a little slice of heaven for anyone tying the knot.

The Fairytale Wedding Venue
I absolutely loved having our wedding at Sky Retreat! They are amazing and go above and beyond. It is a GORGEOUS Venue with STUNNING views!
They have the sweetest little petting zoo my kids loved. As well as the most wonderful staff!
Our first dance was sadly not captured by out video camera. BUT Sky Retreat SAVED THE DAY by sending us their ballroom's video that happened to capture our very special choreographed First dance!!!!
They were so friendly, answered all of our questions, and communicated with us any time we reached out to them.
We plan to go back every year for our anniversary and stay at their cabins. Hoping to enjoy all the other things they offer and that are offered in the area!

Beautiful Views
The sky retreat was the perfect place for us to have our big day. From having cabins on site for the family and bridal party to stay on, to Meris, Vito and Dalton's exceptional service throughout our planning/day of experience we could not have asked for a better venue. Our wedding fit 150 guests very comfortably in the ballroom and the fireplace and smores were a big hit at the reception. Thank you for providing us with such a memorable day.The sky retreat was the perfect place for us to have our big day.

Everyone we worked with at Sky Retreat for our wedding was amazing! They were so incredibly helpful every step of the way. All of them went out of their way to help us and make sure our wedding was exactly how we wanted it to be. They are truly some of the kindest people I've ever met and I can't recommend them enough!Everyone we worked with at Sky Retreat for our wedding was amazing!

Amazing view and great staff!
What an AMAZING experience we had!! I cannot rave enough about how perfect this place was to us when we got married therein October! The view speaks for itself of course but the people there went above and beyond for us, not only on our wedding day but for the 2 years we planned it leading up to the wedding! They were so nice, always helpful, answered ALL our questions, accommodating and super supportive during the day of the wedding. We stayed in the cabins, along with the bridal party, and it was perfect to have everyone on site, definitely worth it. I can’t speak highly enough about Sky Retreat as a venue to get married at and the people who work there so just trust me when I say book your wedding here!What an AMAZING experience we had!!

Amazing Views, Service, Everything!
Our wedding at Sky Retreat was incredible. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and the team is SO accommodating. We had both our rehearsal dinner and wedding there, and also rented out all the on-site cabins for the wedding party and some friends. We loved the convenience of having everything in one place. Overall, we had an incredible experience and are SO glad we chose to get married at the Sky Retreat. Would absolutely recommend!Our wedding at Sky Retreat was incredible.

The Sky Retreat was absolutely perfect and so so beautiful! Everyone was so extremely helpful with everything, from pricing to donkeys to just any and every question we had. We had a very small ceremony and rented the cabins they offered. My whole party talked about visiting again.

Exceptional Place for a memorable Wedding
At first visit to Sky Retreat, we knew this was a special place but once it was the day of the wedding, we were in awe of how beautiful it all turned out!!! The location and buildings offer jaw dropping views of the surrounding mountains and valleys below. Everyone in attendance agreed this is a very special place for a wedding.At first visit to Sky Retreat, we knew this was a special place but once it was the day of the wedding, we were in awe of how beautiful it all turned out!!!

The sky retreat was perfect for our wedding! Everyone who works there is very nice and accommodating. We enjoyed being able to have all of our family and pets stay in the cabins on-site as well. Would highly recommend them for your wedding or any other event you may be hosting! The view alone sells this place but having such awesome and friendly people to work with makes it even better.The sky retreat was perfect for our wedding!

Perfect Venue for Your Perfect Day
Sky Retreat is definitely the perfect venue to host your wedding or post-wedding celebration. The view was breathtaking as it overlooks the rolling Blue Ridge Mountains. If you wish to do so, there is plenty of space outdoors to host your entire event outdoors. We hosted our post-wedding celebration in August 2021 and still wanted to be COVID conscious and considerate to our guests, therefore, we opted to host our event solely outdoors until 10pm. If you choose to utilize their gorgeous ballroom, this is a remarkable option as well. The ballroom has high lofted ceilings with beautiful chandeliers and large open windows that overlook the mountains, so though you are inside you still get the view. The team was wonderful as well. It was great working with Merin. She made scheduling easy and answered all of our many questions leading up to our big day. Vito was super helpful the day of, as well, and will setup the tables and chairs however you envision them to be setup. He is available the day of too for any last minute needs or questions and also takes care of the breaking down of the tables and chairs, which is a huge relief when you are busy hosting your guests and enjoying the day. All-in-all, I would recommend booking your next wedding event at Sky Retreat in a heartbeat.Sky Retreat is definitely the perfect venue to host your wedding or post-wedding celebration.

Dreamy and magical
We had our wedding at Sky Retreat eight weeks ago. I had an extremely hard time deciding between so many beautiful High Country venues. There were three reasons Sky Retreat won out: the views, the Parkway drive up, and the covered porch. The fact that everything else was perfection heightened the whole experience into a choice that the two of us, our family, and our friends could not have been happier with.
The venue is kind of magical. You look down on the charming cabins on one side, and across breathtaking mountain vistas on the other. You get views from anywhere you choose to have your ceremony or dinner. Inside there are almost floor-to-ceiling windows and otherwise a blank canvas room to do with as you wish. Outside you can have your ceremony on the pavers or the grass. We had only twenty guests so we were able to have dinner on the patio, perfect for this never-ending pandemic.
Our caterer (Earthworks) raved about the kitchen set up here before we even booked it, and he even had tons of space outside out of sight to set up his wood grill for the veggies and local trout he served. It was awesome. Our photographer (Enowen) got incredible shots of us at sunset with the views behind us and the mountain breeze ruffling my dress.
The bridal dressing room has a comfy couch and a nice long makeup counter with a full wall mirror. I was the only one getting my hair and makeup done professionally in there, but if you have a large bridal party who are all getting ready at the same time it won’t be big enough. The dressing area is also one room with the toilets separated by a curtain which felt less than ideal, and I had to drag my dress into the handicap stall to get dressed in order to have privacy. The men’s dressing area is also in their bathroom and not separated in any way. This was really the only downside of the venue for me and my pee-shy friends. On the plus side, everything about the venue is truly wheelchair accessible.
Merin answered every question I had so quickly and could not have been nicer and Vitold worked so hard setting everything up and tearing it down to our exact specifications (don’t forget to give him a nice cash tip).We had our wedding at Sky Retreat eight weeks ago. I had an extremely hard time deciding between so many beautiful High Country venues. There were three reasons Sky Retreat won out: the views, the Parkway drive up, and the covered porch. The fact that everything else was perfection heightened the whole experience into a choice that the two of us, our family, and our friends could not have been happier with.
The venue is kind of magical. You look down on the charming cabins on one side, and across breathtaking mountain vistas on the other. You get views from anywhere you choose to have your ceremony or dinner. Inside there are almost floor-to-ceiling windows and otherwise a blank canvas room to do with as you wish. Outside you can have your ceremony on the pavers or the grass. We had only twenty guests so we were able to have dinner on the patio, perfect for this never-ending pandemic.
Our caterer (Earthworks) raved about the kitchen set up here before we even booked it, and he even had tons of space outside out of sight to set up his wood grill for the veggies and local trout he served. It was awesome. Our photographer (Enowen) got incredible shots of us at sunset with the views behind us and the mountain breeze ruffling my dress.
The bridal dressing room has a comfy couch and a nice long makeup counter with a full wall mirror. I was the only one getting my hair and makeup done professionally in there, but if you have a large bridal party who are all getting ready at the same time it won’t be big enough. The dressing area is also one room with the toilets separated by a curtain which felt less than ideal, and I had to drag my dress into the handicap stall to get dressed in order to have privacy. The men’s dressing area is also in their bathroom and not separated in any way. This was really the only downside of the venue for me and my pee-shy friends. On the plus side, everything about the venue is truly wheelchair accessible.

Breathtaking view!
This was a dream venue for us! The view is breathtaking, the space simple and quiet, and on-site cabins for our wedding party and family. And the team was so kind to work with.This was a dream venue for us! The view is breathtaking, the space simple and quiet, and on-site cabins for our wedding party and family.

Perfection
Words can not describe how perfect our wedding at sky retreat was. Every guest was amazed with the view and many said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. The staff at sky retreat are so accommodating and I do not have a single bad word to say about them. I wouldn't change a single thing! It was very nice that we could block off all of the cabins on site and have many of our bridal party and guests stay there. There is also a larger cabin on air bnb right on site and that housed much of our family. Very convenient! Park Vista Inn is where many of our guests stayed and it was right down the parkway. If you are considering getting married here, do it! You will not regret it!Words can not describe how perfect our wedding at sky retreat was.
