Our Story

We are Cory and Carrie Messick, the owners of Sky Lake Events in Grand Junction, Colorado. When we purchased the property in early 2018, it had an overwhelming amount of potential, which also came with an overwhelming amount of work. Cory is a lifelong mechanic, and soon built a diesel shop for his ever-growing business, Grand Valley Performance. While he was busy turning wrenches, we were also busy transforming the property - cleaning up pastures for a small farm, clearing shoreline to expose the views, and revitalizing the lake for our family to recreate. Before long we added our pool and cabana to relax during hot summers, and our jacuzzi and dock to take in breathtaking sunset views across the lake. 

After several decades of mechanic work, Cory was ready for a change of pace and workload. We realized we could share the natural beauty of our unique small lakeside farm with everyone, and so we set out to create Grand Junction’s premier wedding and events venue. Since then we have built indoor spaces, guest suites, lounge areas, and countless other additions, with Cory often working sleepless nights with the help of friends, Carrie in the kitchen keeping everyone fed and caffeinated. 

Now, we are proud to show you the result of our continued work to create a unique and memorable experience for any special day. Whether you’re petting goats and cows in the pasture, strolling along the manicured lakeside path, or just unwinding on the lawn by the pool, we think everyone will find a space to relax and enjoy Sky Lake Events.
