We just had a weekend-long family reunion at The Fort and I was extremely impressed overall. From the beginning, Kindra and the rest of the staff were such a joy to work with. They were thorough, responsive, and so helpful in getting us set up!
The venue itself is stunning and the views are unbeatable! Nothing like spending the day near the river, watching the longhorns, exploring, and ending the day with stunning sunsets. The kitchen was so well stocked and we had everything we needed to prepare meals for our large family! There’s plenty of space for everyone to lounge, play, visit, and relax. You really get more than your monies worth staying here!
Thank you for hosting us for such an amazing weekend!
We had a family reunion over the weekend at this venue where 50+ of us gathered, cooked meals and spent some family time together. The kitchen has a huge fridge and a huge freezer, along with a great gas cooktop along with a pretty good set of tools (pots and pans, cooking utensils, a crockpot, a roaster, a few toasters to list a few).
The view is absolutely gorgeous, and the dining area was spacious. There are lot of areas to sit down and hang out inside and out. There is a big fire pit where we sat around the fire and made s’mores, which delighted all the kids and the kids at heart :-)
The only negative feedback is that there were lots of flies that we had to deal with, as this venue is located near pastures where they keep cows and other animals. (Again, beautiful pastoral landscape!). Otherwise, I would have give. 5 stars instead of 4.
Wow! This place was incredible! We had a family reunion here and I can't imagine a better location to host it! We had family come in from all over the US and it was wonderful having a place that we could all stay onsite! With the large indoor areas, along with the courtyard and grassy areas with gorgeous views - there was plenty of room for everyone to relax and play. The Platte River Fort Staff were all very kind and helpful and great with communication. I could not reccommend it more for hosting a family reunion, wedding, or other events.
Our first attempt to camp at the Platte River Fort was in the fall of 2021. Unfortunately, my entire family came down with COVID and we lost my father and aunt within two weeks of each other. As they were hospitalized during the time we had booked, we had no choice but to cancel our reservation to focus on their health, and our own. Management was so kind and were willing to work with us, allowing us to cancel the reservation and reimbursed us the money, even though that was outside of their cancelation policy.
We finally were able to camp there last summer and had the very best experience! Very nice, clean and well maintained camp sites and we had a fabulous time just floating the river. We are scheduled to return for a family camping trip next weekend and plan to enjoy this campground for many camping trips to come.
On behalf of myself and my family, we can not say thank you enough for creating such fun place to retreat to and a HUGE thank you to the wonderful staff!
The Platte River Fort always amazes me! I have had several events there and they always exceed expectations. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and well-kept; very elegant but super comfortable and welcoming. The staff are exceptional and very accommodating. Cindy is always my bestie event planner - she could not be more helpful and flexible! Chuck always is there to assist with anything needed, and offers to help above and beyond! Brandy, Kendra, and Hannah are always very friendly and helpful for the guests.
Rooms are super nice - especially the suites inside the Fort - and having use of the living and kitchen/dining areas makes things so very handy!
People who have never been to The Fort are always very surprised that this kind of place is right here in Greeley!
