If you’re trying to plan a bachelor party in Denver, you know how hard it is to finalize the group’s plans. Between coordinating flights, booking the Airbnb, and deciding who will be the designated driver, you’re probably swimming in logistics. 

And then there’s the itinerary itself. Bachelor party weekends are packed with high-energy activities, but even the most enthusiastic group needs time to slow down between brewery tours, outdoor adventures, and nights out.

But that doesn’t mean you have to sit around doing nothing. Take your friends on a more low-key adventure with a trip to Oakwell Beer Spa. Our Garage Party package gives the groom and his closest pals a place to recharge while celebrating—complete with craft beer, therapeutic soaks, and a distinctly Denver atmosphere. 

Learn how the Garage Party works, plus tips to help you make the most of your Denver bachelor party. 

Why Book a Garage Party for Your Bachelor Party? 

Not every activity needs to involve loud music or keg stands. The Garage Party at Oakwell is laid-back, but it’s far from boring. It’s no wonder guests visit to celebrate everything from birthdays and anniversaries to date nights and, yes, bachelor parties. 

Your group can sample local Colorado craft beer, order gourmet snacks, and catch up while enjoying a private wellness circuit. It’s an especially welcome break after a late night downtown—or prepping for a big night out. 

This isn’t a traditional spa where everyone disappears into separate treatment rooms. Oakwell connects private spa suites together so your group can move between treatments and relax together. 

Although some men swear they aren’t spa people, Oakwell is different. Our beer spa is perfect for anyone who’s not a “spa person,” including amenities like:

• Two private connected spa suites
• Infrared saunas
• Oversized therapeutic tubs
• Rain showers

There’s also an on-site taproom serving rotating craft beer, wine, cider, kombucha, and other nonalcoholic drinks. Guests 21 and older can bring their drinks into the private suites, too.

The great thing about Oakwell is that it’s a calm stop during an otherwise hectic bachelor party schedule. Arrive Friday, check into your hotel, and visit a few breweries. Plan an active Saturday morning, then head to Oakwell in the afternoon. Afterward, return to the hotel to change before dinner at a steakhouse and a night out.

Oakwell is also great for nursing sore muscles (and maybe a post-night-out headache). Save Oakwell for the morning or afternoon after the group’s biggest night. A warm bath and low-key sauna session may be exactly what everyone needs before returning home.

What to Expect During A Bachelor Party at Oakwell

A Garage Party costs $450 for a group of up to four or $649 for a group of up to six at either Oakwell location. Prices are subject to change, so check our booking page for the most up-to-date pricing.

You can also make the reservation more festive with add-ons like:

• A bottle of sparkling wine
• A charcuterie board with cheeses, cured meats, fruit, olives, mustard, and crackers
• Zero-gravity massages. Depending on availability, the group can choose 15-, 30-, or 60-minute sessions.

So, what can you expect the first time you visit Oakwell?

Bring a Few Items With You

You don’t need to pack a full gym bag to enjoy yourself at Oakwell, but a few things will help your experience go more smoothly. 

Wear comfortable street clothes, pack a swimsuit if you want, and bring a valid ID if you plan to purchase alcohol. You may also want a change of clothes and a small bag for anything you’ll need before heading to your next activity.

Oakwell provides towels, robes, sandals, lockers, and shower products, so you don’t need to pack for an entire spa day.

It’s tempting to bring beer or snacks with your bachelor party, but that isn’t permitted. If you’re hungry or thirsty, visit the Oakwell taproom to sample craft drinks and gourmet snacks while you relax.

Arrive 45 Minutes Before Your Reservation

Your Garage Party reservation lasts 90 minutes, but plan to arrive well before the official start time. We tell most people to arrive 30 minutes before their reservation, but for a bachelor party, go with 45 minutes. It’s hard to transport a big group of people, and someone’s bound to show up late. 

The good news is that you won’t be stuck twiddling your thumbs if you get here early. The group can check in, learn how the experience works, choose bath infusions, and order drinks in the taproom before entering the suites.

Enjoy Your Private Suites

Once it’s time for your reservation, Oakwell will open the connecting door between two private spa suites. Each suite has an herbal bath, an infrared sauna, and a rain shower. With room for up to three guests per suite, the Garage Party can accommodate up to six people at either location.

There’s no order to using the treatments in your suite. You can rotate between the sauna, shower, and bath based on what feels best for your group. The baths begin draining 70 minutes after your scheduled start time, leaving you 20 minutes to shower and get dressed.

Book the Right Experience For Your Group Size

Ready to give Oakwell a try? The Garage Party requires advance reservations, so plan ahead to book at the location that works with your bachelor party plans. 

Both Oakwell’s RiNo and Highlands Ranch locations can accommodate up to six Garage Party guests in two connected private suites. RiNo is especially convenient if you’re staying downtown, in LoDo, or near RiNo’s breweries and restaurants. Highlands Ranch is a good fit if your group is staying in South Denver or planning activities outside the downtown area.

Groups of 7 or More: Contact the Oakwell Team

When it comes to planning your bachelor party, the more the merrier! But don’t try to piece together multiple online reservations for a larger party. Contact Oakwell so our event team can coordinate multiple connected suites for your group at the same time. 

We can accommodate groups of eight, but we also offer private-party options for larger celebrations. However, this depends on availability, so get in touch with us as soon as possible to reserve your desired date and time.

Keep the Party Going with Denver Bachelor Party Activities

Oakwell is one of the most relaxing stops on any bachelor party itinerary, but it pairs well with other Denver activities, like:

• Bar crawls: Explore a few of RiNo’s breweries on foot, but choose your priority stops instead of trying to visit every taproom in one afternoon.
• Red Rocks shows: Seeing a show at Red Rocks is a bucket list experience. However, it involves a lot of logistics, so plan your transportation carefully to arrive in time for the show. 
• Golfing: Denver has several public courses, but weekend tee times fill up quickly during the warmer months.
• Rafting: Whitewater rafting is an exciting warm-weather option, but remember to account for travel time outside the city.
• Steakhouse dinners: A classic group dinner is easy to fit between Oakwell and a night out. Make your reservation early if you need a large table on Friday or Saturday.

Relax Between the Revelry

A great bachelor party doesn’t have to be nonstop excitement. The Garage Party gives your group time to relax, share a few drinks, and celebrate the groom without going to another crowded bar. 

If you’re planning a bachelor party for up to six people, book the Garage Party online. For seven or more, contact the Oakwell team to discuss private-party options.
