Grand Lake With View

Cute A Frame with minimal upgrades. An older home with aged bathroom, bedroom, kitchen and living area. Bed was so uncomfortable that we actually left 2 days early. Host was very helpful and views were amazing. We were just surprised at the condition of the home.

The Quiet Getaway

The homeowner kept in contact but not too much contact. The property was beautiful and quiet. My wife and I enjoyed morning coffee on the back deck almost every morning. The view was awesome and the property was very close to Grand Lake, side by side rentals and the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. Overall a wonderful experience.

Very nice stay. the property was as advertised. It was a very user friendly facility. The only negative was we were charged $30 to enter the Rocky Mountain National Park and only a very small portion was open.

Cozy Cabin, Great Views, Awesome Location

This property was perfect for our family! We have 3 teenagers, and the loft upstairs was perfect for them. Everyone had a bed, their own space and great views out the second story windows. It didn't matter in the least that there isn't AC in the cabin, with the windows open you didn't need it. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities for cooking meals, the TV with Netflix, was a nice amenity for a little down time, and the deck was the absolute highlight! We had coffee and dinner out there most nights watching the sunrise and sunsets on RMNP! This little lake community is peaceful and private, and the town of Grand Lake it literally around the corner (less than 5 minute drive). Plus the entrance to RMNP is just a stone's throw away. Quick access to Lake Verna Trailhead (via Adam's Falls), and the Colorado River Trailhead, and other other activities you want to do in RMNP or the town of Grand Lake. The cabin was clean and cozy, and the location was fantastic. We'd recommend to any family with older kiddos anxious to check out this majestic little town. Thanks, Kate, for making it easy for us, for restaurant recommendations and quick responses with questions.

Amazing Time

We had an amazing time in Grand Lake and RMNP. Grand Lake is such a cute town. It seems like it could be the backdrop for a Hallmark Movie. RMNP is amazing and this property was perfectly located to enjoy both. Waking up every morning to that view is magical, and coming back after a long day of hiking was welcoming! Kate was great at communicating, it was fantastic all the way around!

Beautiful View!

First - this property has a beautiful view! The cabin is well stocked with just about all things you would need - there are games, movies, utensils, dishes, etc... There was only one real downside to this cabin - It felt like the cabin could use some TLC given the price per night. While we did get notice the week before arrived that the deck furniture was in the process of being replaced, they weren't replaced in time for our visit so the deck furniture was in pretty rough shape. Some of the chairs were fine, but others looked taped/stringed together. There were other little things as well - the mattress was not very comfortable and seemed to be pretty well worn, loose tiles on the bathroom counter, a screen door that doesn't really close, etc... There were no major items, just little maintenance type items that sort of detracted from experience. That said, I will say that we found the cabin to be very clean - it just felt like some TLC/maintenance could have benefited the cabin.

Labor day weekend

Overall the A-frame home has a beautiful view and is the high point of the rental. We found the interior to be a little dirty with wear and tear from use and the items provided to be of a lower quality. Items such as the towels, coffee pot, service ware, patio furniture were well used..old and in need of replacement. The carpet was worn and stained in spots as well as the rugs provided in the bathroom. A nice place to stay and a with some replacement of the support equipment it would be an awesome site.

Our honest feedback

We have rented places all over the U.S. and abroad. We have had great experiences. The view from the cabin is amazing and the location is very quiet. The stars at night were incredible. Great towels, lots of shampoo, conditioner and body soap choices. Kitchen is well equipped. The location so close to RMNP is excellent. The owner let me know when the cabin was ready as the cleaner had several cabins to clean. Some of the deck furniture needs replacing. The blue plastic Adirondack chair has a big crack in the seat. The glass in the table between the chairs is falling out of the frame. The tall table had two chairs and both seats that had been repaired with what appeared to be rope. The owners helped us remedy the empty propane tank issue quickly, although we could never get the grill any hotter than 250 degrees. Perhaps the cabin had seen heavy use over the summer, but we were surprised there were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. The bathroom was dark as only one of three light bulbs is working. Perhaps there are spare bulbs in one of the cabinets, but it seems the cleaning crew should have taken care of this. We were surprised by the ant traps on the kitchen counter, however we did not see ants so I guess the traps are working. The screen door will not fully close even when you pull it hard. We really wanted to like the cabin. I read all the reviews before we booked it. For the amount we paid for the rental and the cleaning, this cabin really fell short.

Perfect little cabin

My family enjoyed our stay in this adorable little cabin. The attic sleep areas were a huge hit with the kids (15 & 11). It felt super tucked away, but Grand Lake and RMNP are less than 5 min away. It was completely stocked for any cooking you might want to do. No dishwasher, but that's what kids are for, amiright? Great stay!

Great hidden gem here. Saw wildlife all around the cabin. Hummingbird feeder was always busy. My wife and I found it very spacious for us. That large picture window facing the lake made a great starter to our day with our coffee.

Great place for a couples getaway!

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin! The only issue we had was finding the location, the bushes were covering the address so we cleared them for you! We really enjoy fishing and were sad to hear we could not access the lake at all. We took comfort in the park being so close and grand lake shopping and restaurants a short drive away. It was a wonderful getaway!

Relaxing Getaway!

The views! Wow! I loved this property so much! I’d get up early just to see the sun peek over the mountains about 5:45am. The house had everything we needed. Katie was very friendly and responsive leading up to booking and our stay. We really loved how close we were to downtown Grand Lake, but the quietness at the house felt like we were miles away from everything. Our three teens stayed in the loft with no issues and the master bed was comfortable. Only suggestion is to bring beach towels if you plan to go out on the water. We will be back!!

Just How We Expected it to be

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Kate was great at responding to questions almost immediately. For future guests, if you have room to pack your own towels I suggest you do so. There are towels available but personally I would have preferred having my own from home. Just saying. Other than that everything was fabulous. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing cozy place to stay with unbelievable views.

Rest and relaxation

This property was magic. We felt at home and enjoyed curling up by the fire playing board games, having happy hour on the deck, and watching the sunrises out of the giant picture window! This property is close to good restaurants and shopping as well as great hiking trails! Highly recommend if you are looking for a relaxing weekend in the mountains! Thank you Kate!
