Views of Grand Lake, Shadow Mountain Lake and RMNP!

Come enjoy the extraordinary beauty and warm friendliness of Grand Lake, Colorado with its abundance of Summer and Winter activities! Built in 2006, this well-appointed 2000+ sq ft home is centrally located. It is just above the very charming Grand Lake Town with its old west buildings, boarded sidewalks and friendly residents. It is adjacent to the historic Grand Lake Lodge property, which provides for a peaceful mountain retreat and open space behind the home.

From the gorgeous great room with hand-built, river rock fireplace, or spacious deck, savor the beauty of majestic Mount Baldy and sparkling views of Shadow Mountain Lake and Grand Lake! Take in the starry sky on a warm summer night while relaxing on the deck. Watch the best fireworks in the Rocky Mountains from the deck on the 4th of July or New Year’s Eve. In the winter when road snow pack allows, hop on your snowmobile right outside the door and ride into town or hook up with a trail into Rocky Mountain National Park. There are so many things to do and memories to make in Colorado’s best-kept secret!

Grand Lake Village and Grand Lake are within easy walking distance at less than one half mile away. Shadow Mountain Lake is less than one mile away. You’ll have easy access to over 100 miles of groomed snowmobile trails, enjoy the lakes, shop, and eat in town. Lake Granby is just a few miles down the road.

The West entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park is 2 miles away. There you may encounter moose, big horn sheep, or elk herds. Hike to lakes, climb peaks, or simply enjoy the views. Incredible Colorado skiing is nearby with Ski Grandby Ranch only twenty minutes away; Colorado’s playground - Winter Park Ski Resort and Mary Jane only forty minutes away; and Steamboat Ski Resort, with its legendary champagne powder is a little over an hour away!

Note: VRBO groups search results for Estes Park and Grand Lake together. This home is in Grand Lake on the West side of RMNP. Estes Park is at the East entrance of RMNP, about 50miles from Grand Lake via the famous Trail Ridge Road through the National Park. When the road is open (typically Memorial Day to Labor Day, or into October if weather allows), the drive will take about 2.5 hrs with stops for sight seeing and Park traffic. In winter, the drive between Estes Park and Grand Lake is about 150 miles and 3+ hrs as you must drive alternate (but faster) roads into the mountains (I-70 out of Denver, to Hwy 40 over Berthoud Pass to Grand County/Winter Park, to Hwy 34 and Grand Lake)

Notice: Home is monitored by a security camera that views the driveway and weather over Shadow Mountain Lake.

Enjoyable stay in great location

We had a great time at this comfy home! The owners had thought of everything we could possibly have needed to be comfortable and entertained. Everything was smooth. We had no issues with check in/out or access to the home or hot tub. Location was great with beautiful view of lake and very close to everything. There were full instructions for everything including the hummingbird feeder, which we all really enjoyed. We had plenty of space for all of us, were able to cook meals, make coffee, watch tv and play games. We appreciated the book and dvd libraries and the extensive game collection. The only downside was the fridge, which smelled like fish and had some black hairs in it, so it needed a better cleaning. Other than that, everything was great!

Really enjoyed our stay ... in particular sitting on the deck and looking out over the lake. Beds were very comfortable and linens were clean and nice. We rented a pontoon boat and spend an afternoon touring around the lake. We spotted a moose and baby in the water just off the island located in the lake. The gates were nice to close off the deck for the dogs so they could be outside with us too.

Wonderful family vacation home with gorgeous view

We stayed at this property in early August and couldn't have loved it more. We were a family of 5 and were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, the living room was spacious yet cozy. We enjoyed the hot tub after a day of hiking. But the real highlight is the deck. The view is gorgeous and we enjoyed meals outside overlooking the lake. Thanks Vandy we loved our stay!

Spectacular views!

Wow. Wow. Wow. I can’t say enough of how absolutely amazing our stay was in this home! The snowy Christmas views are to die for! The house was clean, the pots and pans were newer and clean, the size of the house was perfect for our 7 adults, the hot tub felt great, we even got to sit in the deck on a sunny 17 degree day with our coffee and enjoy the views!!!! The communication with the owner was prompt and clear. Such an easy drive to the shops/restaurants on the “strip” and man- it was like out of a movie- such quaint little shops with friendly owners! We rented an ice fishing guide to fish right on grand lake, super easy 5 min drive from this house. We also rented snowmobiles and rode in RMNP. You will not regret renting this amazing home! (Oh!- if you go in the winter and there’s snow- you better have 4 wheel drive to get up the steep hill or you probably won’t make it. We had a 4 wheel drive and had no problems but we took it slow). I would definitely come here again!!

Our Stay

Overall the cabin is nice in a good location. However when we got there not only did all the sheets on every bed smell bad but there was no hand soap, shampoo, conditioner. I replied back and haven’t heard anything from them in days regarding this.
