Zenzen Gardens

The historic barn and outdoor stage at Zenzen Gardens anchor a sprawling property in Paonia, where the West Elk Mountain Range provides a dramatic backdrop for weddings and events. Guests stay in professionally designed vacation rentals that feature sweeping mountain views, fire pits, and pet-friendly accommodations. The grounds are carefully tended with colorful flower gardens and a pond, creating a quiet setting where birds, crickets, and frogs are part of the soundscape. A wrap-around veranda on the main house invites socializing, while Wi-Fi and electrical outlets ensure modern convenience. On-site amenities include on-site toilets and options for private chefs, massage or Reiki, yoga, meditation, astrology, and art classes. For those seeking off-site adventures, the venue offers bookings for horseback riding, wine tours from local producers like Alfred Eames Cellars, kayaking, rafting, tubing, mountain and road bike excursions, stand-up paddle boarding, mushroom foraging, fly fishing, and hemp tours. The property hosts everything from intimate family reunions and birthday parties to large-scale concerts, mini-festivals, corporate retreats, and celebrations of life. Cindie’s enthusiasm for sharing this North Fork Valley oasis is evident in the pristine, farmy charm that blends music, food, and community.
