Named in honor of James Colby Colgate, Colgate Park is a venue for special events and also offers professional office suites and retail spaces located to the west of Bennington, Vermont. The special events aspect of Colgate Park is unique not only for its beautiful setting and considerable amenities but also for its range and ability to accommodate events of different sizes and needs. Currently there are outdoor areas for large or small festivals, shows, assemblies, exhibitions and indoor space for more intimate events like family gatherings, reunions, special gatherings, parties, educational or entertainment events. Under construction is a major, indoor area designed with state of the art events facilities that will accommodate as many as 1,000 people for year round functions, including sit-down dinners, dances, meetings, corporate retreats/seminars, virtually any situation intended to bring people together.
Another unique aspect of Colgate Park is its adjacent property, the 1768 Hubbell Homestead, a lovingly restored pre-Revolutionary War farmhouse that – with its multiple outbuildings, gardens and grounds – is available for destination weddings, corporate retreats, private gatherings that require a specialized, distinctive, full-service approach. The Hubbell Homestead has the flexibility of catering to larger, private events because of its country events barn and expansive tented space.
Owned and operated by direct descendants of James Colby Colgate, Colgate Park reflects a high degree of care, of sense of family and community. Their main objective in bringing an old, Vermont farm property back to life is to offer a special place for special events, a place where people will truly want to come together.
