    I told my mom I wanted to be married on a mountain and boy did she deliver. She found the eagles nest through recommendation of other people in the area, to begin with the eagles nest is in fact beautiful, I was married on a clear day and you could see a view that seemed to go on forever. The eagles nest was great as they had a ready to go back up plan just in case the weather was poor, i was confident that rain or shine my wedding would go off without a hitch. Secondly, the food was amazing. I have a gluten allergy and It was important to me that I be able to enjoy most of the food at my wedding. They were so accommodating with my allergy, even making me a special gluten free plate to enjoy during the cocktail hour. My wedding cake was gluten free as well. The Maitre d was fantastic, he helped with everything from getting me to the isle with my long train to making sure my drink never got warm. He stayed late into the night as well to make sure we were well taken care of. Eagles nest made sure they had some of my favorite cider available during my wedding for me. They also have rooms available for people to rent after the reception which was fantastic as the night continued even after my reception was over. We utilized the fire pit which was a hit with my overnight guests, they included breakfast for the next day. The bar stayed open through the night and many of my guests took advantage of that. The staff was professional and friendly and my wedding was truly perfect. I am so grateful to Michael and his staff at The Eagle's Nest, I highly recommend them as they are affordable, beautiful, professional and everything you could ask for in a venue for a wedding. I was also able to find most of my vendors through his recommendations list and they were truly fantastic as well. I am so appreciative :)

    The Best Venue Around...Hands Down

    We recently had our wedding at the Eagle's Nest and everything was absolutely AMAZING!!! They were very attentive to our needs, detail oriented, and very accommodating. The staff was super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Corey was extremely patient with all of my questions and the wedding wouldn't have been perfect if Bobby wasn't there. Both Corey & Bobby stepped in when they saw an issue, addressed it immediately, and ensured I was happy with the final result. That wasn't their job and they didn't have to help with half the things they did, but that is also why they are #1 in our book. They have gone far above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. They are nothing short of miracle workers and we truly appreciate everybody did to make our special day a memorable one!!! Thank you all again for everything!

    The Eagles Nest was Fantastic! They really know what they are doing when it comes to making your big day perfect. The Eagles Nest is organized and so easy to work with. Their food is fantastic and so are their desserts. The will make what ever accommodation they can to make sure that you are happy on your wedding day! The Eagles Nest is a all in one venue. They have a ceremony space, a backup just in case of rain, a Day of coordinator, place to stay over night, fire pit and makes the cake on site. Leading up to the wedding day I was told that I will not have time to eat and enjoy the food, but the Eagles Nest made sure that we had plenty of food. There was always servers coming to me or my groom asking us if we needed anything, bringing us food and drinks when ever we wanted. On top of the amazing service, the view is stunning! If you want a beautiful mountain view look no further! I could just go on and on about how wonderful The Eagles Nest really is! I do not think we would be able to find any better place then The Eagles Nest to host our wedding. There is a very good reason why The Eagles Nest won the best wedding venue in the Hudson Valley three years in a row! Thank you so much Eagles Nest for making our day go so smoothly and perfectly! You are all the best!

    My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Eagle’s Nest this past summer, and it was the best wedding reception we’ve ever been to (though we may be a little biased :)). The view at the Eagle’s Nest from the Shawangunk Mountains into the valley is beautiful, and was a perfect showcase to our out of town guests of one of the things we most love about New York/the Hudson Valley. So many guests commented on the view. Moreover, the entire Eagle’s Nest staff is awesome, professional, friendly, and so easy to work with. Michael the owner, Michael the pastry chef, and Bobby the maitre d’ are easy going but very organized and superb at what they do, and the were all so attentive to our vision for the reception and ensuring that everything ran completely smoothly (which it did!). And of course we cannot fail to mention how delicious the food was- appetizers, main course, and desserts. We continue to hear from our guests that it was the best food they’ve ever had at an event. Thank you to everyone at the Eagle’s Nest for such an amazing reception!

    This was the best, most beautiful wedding venue! The views from the top of the mountain are breathtaking. Michael and his staff are extremely accommodating, and will do anything to make you happy. They are kind, caring, and professional. I wish I could do my wedding day all over again to be able to work with them again!

    We LOVED working with Michael and the entire staff at The Eagle's Nest. The venue is BEAUTIFUL! When we first visited, we fell in love with the view, and felt like we were in heaven! Our guests could not stop complimenting the natural beauty surrounding the venue. We love camping, so the fire pit for late night use sealed the deal! Catering was DELICIOUS. We actually hired Michael to cater our entire wedding weekend (Shabbat dinner, Rehearsal BBQ dinner, and of course Reception), and our guests could not stop raving about the food - especially the amazing dessert buffet at the Wedding reception! What was best is that he accommodated a lot of dietary needs for our friends and family, including gluten-free, vegan, etc. We fell in love with the staff. Kenny was with us all weekend, and made sure all of our guests had what they wanted. Dolly spent the wedding day with us - they even provided breakfast for the bridal party as we got ready - and helped with so many details. And Bobby, our maitre d, was always right there during the wedding predicting our needs. We had the wedding we dreamed of in a place that was so beautiful!

    Michael and his staff were a dreamy team to work with. First, the venue is located on top of a mountain and the view on a sunny day is simply breathtaking; the main hall is pretty spacious with an astonishing view from the inside. There is an adjacent room/hall where they put the cocktail hour and, if you're having the ceremony at the venue, you would want to do it on the deck (weather permitted), as it would give you a landscape out of a fairly tale story. In addition, they have cabins on premisses that guests can book for the night so they don't have to worry about driving after having a few drinks. Second, from the day we went to check the venue out through the big day, Michael was very informative and provided us detailed information of the services they offer. When we went to do the tasting, we were treated as if we were in a 5 stars restaurant. They're also very flexible with any specific requests you may have. I'm Colombian and my husband is American, and Michael was very helpful with the few requests I had for my special day; he got us Colombian liquor to offer at the bar and added some Hispanic flavor to our food. Third, Michael and his team made sure that everything came out as I wanted it to be. Bobby, the maitre d' that evening, was very helpful and I'm grateful that he was there to keep the smooth flow for the ceremony and reception by coordinating the vendors and instructing guests throughout the night. Overall, we were very happy with how our wedding came out and I would highly recommend The Eagle's Nest for your wedding or any important event.

    I want to get married again just so I can have another wedding reception at the Eagle's Nest! Michael and his staff were amazing. The food was terrific, they designed my wedding cake just like I had asked, he included bus transportation for my guests, and the drinks and desserts were overflowing. His wife even played the piano during cocktail hour. Although I got married in March and we couldn't really utilize the deck or be outside (it had snowed the night before), it was still beautiful. I had guests come up to me and say "this is a really great wedding" and we heard compliments about the food and ice cream sundaes for many weeks after. Thank you Eagle's Nest, for a magical evening. I am so happy with my reception venue choice and I hope others will consider it for theirs!

    Holy cow, this is the best venue imaginable! Everything was perfect. The setting is breathtaking, the staff are sweet and helpful and attentive. The cake, baked on-premises, was GORGEOUS. Nothing could be better.

    We had our wedding in July 2017 The Eagle's Nest.
    The location and scenery here is absolutely gorgeous!
    The staff are phenomenal, everyone is very friendly and nothing was too much trouble, they made sure that everything ran smoothly. (special thank you to Raymond, Dolly & Bobby - these guys are fab!) The food is excellent and our wedding cake was to die for! Our guests all had a fabulous time and we will definitely be back for dinner next time we are in town!

    Best Wedding Venue!!

    Got married at the Eagle’s Nest at 8/7 and couldn’t be happier! Everything was perfect. All of our guests raved about how much they loved the venue and how it was even worth 4+ hours stuck in traffic coming from NYC haha. We originally picked it because we were struck by the spectacular view, the convenience of the on-site cabins, the value of everything (added champagne and dessert bar!), and the delicious food. In addition to all of these perks, we were very impressed by the service. Bobby was our main point of contact throughout the planning process and he was amazing.
    During our wedding, Bobby and the rest of the staff were constantly checking in with us about if we needed anything which helped us to feel relaxed and in good hands. We also appreciated so many of the little added things that they did for us such as picking up some local beers for our wedding reception and packing us leftover food to take home the next day. We wish we could do it all again! I highly recommend the Eagle’s Nest!
    Also thank you to the bartender who stayed there til the early hours of the morning for our after party!

    Wedding disaster

    I started planning my wedding in February 2020. When I first booked the Eagles Nest I was excited because the view is beautiful and I was promised the wedding I've dreamed of. Corey was supposed to get back to me on some questions I had after booking and never did. Eventually Blake got back to me after about a month of me trying to get a hold of someone and said he would get back to me with the answers. Never heard from Blake again.After again trying to get a hold of anyone, I was then in contact with Kristina. I sent pictures of how I wanted my cake to look and even explained it on the phone 2 days before the wedding, my cake at my wedding was not what I asked for. It looked so plain and not at all what I asked for. I paid extra money to have the pork tenderloin added to my menu because it was good at taste testing but they gave us a different pork at the wedding which tasted horrible. The first pork plate they brought out I had to send back cause it was bloody and raw. The 2nd plate I tasted and ended up not eating because it tasted like a frozen tv dinner. My brother didn't even get potatoes on his plate just a raw steak after he asked for well done. At taste testing I specifically asked for the cheesecake to be at the wedding for dessert table and there was no cheesecake at all at the dessert table. My bridal party rehearsed dances and poses for when they got announced into the reception and was told right as they were going to get called out that they weren't allowed to do it. I spent over $100 on my cake topper that was never put on my cake. I spent money on sparklers for a sparkler send off that noone knew where the sparklers went to that I gave them until after the reception so I didnt get to have one. My guests paid for rooms for 2 nights but ended up only staying 1 cause there was no heat in most of the rooms and some didn't have hot water either. I was told that the rooms were being renovated before the wedding but there was no heat in most rooms my bathroom door had a hole in the back of it and none of the bathroom doors in the rooms would close all the way. I was informed only 2 weeks before the wedding that everyone had to get tested for covid exactly 3 days before the wedding or 6 hours with rapid testing,I ended up paying for some of my guests to be tested who didnt have insurance, only for them not to even ask for the paperwork anyway. I could go on about things they messed up but I am only allowed a certain amount of space on here. The rehearsal dinner went great, the wedding was a disaster. I paid thousands of dollars for my wedding and it was definitely not the wedding I was promised. I sent an email about my experience to them and they couldn't even be bothered to respond. I recieved an email about how they forgot to give me the top layer to my cake and the cake topper that they never put on my cake but no mention of my email to them. Most of the workers there are friendly and the bartender is awesome but I dont think anyone knows who is in charge and there's no communication there between them so everything is crazy and noone seems to know what their job is to do. Either that or they just dont care. As beautiful as the view is it just wasn't worth all the stress they added and all the mess ups that there really was no excuse for. If I could know then what I know now I would have not booked the Eagles Nest for my wedding.
