Attended a conference here and they did an amazing job creating plant based dishes for all of us! Would definitely recommend booking conferences and events here. All the staff were lovely as well.

Questions about the venue

Which wedding venues are part of Sun Valley Resort?
The resort lists Trail Creek Pavilion, Trail Creek Grounds, Trail Creek Cabin, River Run Lodge, The Roundhouse, Sun Valley Club, Dollar Lodge and Limelight Ballroom. This page covers the resort as a whole; confirm your chosen space when enquiring.
How many guests can the venues accommodate?
Capacity depends on the specific space and layout. Trail Creek Cabin lists a maximum of 66 guests in its main dining room. The Roundhouse accommodates 100 seated or 175 standing guests. Limelight Ballroom accommodates 550 seated or 1,000 standing guests. These figures describe separate venues and should not be added together.
Are all spaces available throughout the year?
No. Trail Creek Pavilion operates from Memorial Day through the second weekend in October. The Roundhouse depends on gondola operation. Sun Valley Club offers private events from October through May, after 6pm. River Run Lodge, Dollar Lodge and Limelight Ballroom list year-round availability, with additional time and date restrictions to confirm.
Are the wedding spaces independent bookings?
Not always. Sun Valley states that renting Trail Creek Pavilion includes Trail Creek Cabin. Ask the wedding team which spaces are included and whether a booking affects other locations or events.
Who handles wedding enquiries and pricing?
Contact Sun Valley’s wedding team at weddings@sunvalley.com or +1 208 622 2047. Rental fees depend on the venue; request a current proposal covering the selected space, food and drink, equipment, guest accommodation and any additional charges.
