This beautiful home was perfect for our stay. This house has other houses around, but not close enough to be bothered. The back porch is beautiful surrounded by trees, a walk way near the creek. The kitchen and dining room window have a spectacular view of the lake and the mountains.

We loved this property! The beds were comfortable, it was beautiful and well stocked. You have neighbors but you can’t see them through the trees so you feel secluded. The deck was our favorite part! It was only a two minute drive to get to the Rocky Mountains and we saw Moose and Elk every day there!I highly recommend it!

Over all was fantastic. Would stay again. The bedding comfortors need uptating or cleaning. And wood stocked for a place with a fire pit and wood fireplace would seem standard, but want provided, but maybe that's just what i expect from other vrbos.

This home was just what we hoped for and looked exactly like the pictures. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for cooking. The induction cooktop is a dream. We loved the deck with comfortable furniture and dreamy views of aspens, flowers and the lake. It was a perfect place for morning coffee and afternoon happy hour. The stairs to the second floor were steep for two couples in our 80s but manageable due to the railings on both sides.

Family Christmas Getaway

I booked this cabin for a family getaway with my wife, three sons, and daughter in law. The cabin was nice and clean when we arrived. They even had the property maintenance man snow blowing the driveway for us!The views from the cabin were spectacular. Sunrise over the mountains every morning. Just minutes from downtown Grand Lake with lots of shopping and dining opportunities. We would most certainly stay here again!
