While technically a festival, MeadowGrass at La Foret Conference & Retreat Center is a can’t-miss celebration of live music that showcases Colorado’s indie roots. Lauded by Westword and The Colorado Springs Independent, the Memorial Day weekend event features performances from local and national acts in genres spanning folk, bluegrass, indie rock, and Americana—all set amid scenic pine forests just outside the city. Family-friendly activities, on-site camping, and a deep commitment to local vendors make MeadowGrass a beloved annual tradition for music lovers.

My husband and I just got married at La Foret (Inglis hall) on Saturday 8/16/25. We booked the venue over a year in advance and from the beginning to end the staff was nothing but kind, attentive, and easy to communicate with. The venue turned out so beautiful and we got non stop compliments about how wonderful it was and how great the location was. If you’re more of a DIY wedding couple then La Foret is the place for you. We couldn’t recommend it more!!!!

I had a wonderful time at La Foret for the Seeing No Stranger conference! The Black Forest in Colorado is beautiful and the first thing I saw was a deer grazing in the meadow! They are filling a great role there.

I run a limousine business. I get great feed back from my clients about La Foret. I would highly recommend checking this venue out for wedding, reunions and other events. Its a beautiful atmosphere. Check out @funlimo on Instagram to book the limo.

Lapp Lodge was beautiful, well kept and accommodated our family reunion superb. The only reason it's getting a 4 star is, they advertise swimming and ziplining, but we couldn't do that, the tennis courts are in very poor shape and the food was ok, but nothing great.

We had the pleasure of working with La Foret, and it was a fantastic experience. The venue is gorgeous, peaceful, family-friendly, with a natural and elegant atmosphere that’s perfect for weddings. The team was easy to work with and made everything run smoothly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a beautiful wedding venue!
