Events Venue with Successful Catering Business

Daven Haven Lodge is the perfect event venue, the home of Stone Creek Catering for over 33 years. Over this time, this property has hosted far too many weddings, reunions, corporate retreats, life and milestone celebrations, concerts, fundraisers, annual local events and return guests to count. This beautiful venue and great mountain home is looking for a new owner to take it into the next 30 years of serving guests, while enjoying the mountain lifestyle of Grand Lake.
Stone Creek Catering has a very well respected and locally known track record in years of fantastic food, community events, and service all through Grand County extending to the front range for special clients, and had the opportunity to cater at the 2002 and 2010 Olympic Games in Salt Lake City and Vancouver Canada. They have an abundance of material for catering- menus, décor, service items and more.

Entering retirement with the onset of covid; in the past 3-4 years Stone Creek has taken on fewer events and changed their lifestyle to incorporate more time off and less time on. There is still a good record of inquiries, along with the income they have chosen to take on.

A big commercial catering kitchen, large main dining room, reception area, banquet room,bar and outside patio event area allow this property to be whatever you can envision.  The demand is extremely high for catered events. The retirement of Barnes from this well-known catering career has created a big gap that needs to be filled. Nothing but success can come from anyone with a big dream who works hard to achieve their goals. Living and working and owning your own home and business in Grand Lake is a blessing for the fortunate few.

Directions:  As you enter Grand Lake, about a half mile from Highway 34, turn right between Re/Max and the Rocky Mountain Repertory Theater. Rather than turning right in 200 feet, and wrapping around the historic motor lodge, go slightly to the right and then straight ahead. Lakefront homes dating back to the turn of the last century are on your left and a big meadow is on your right. Take the next right turn onto Marina Drive at the Daven Haven sign. You have arrived.
