New Years Family Vacation
We had an amazing time in this home as we arrrived after christmas and left on the New year day! My family and i enjoyed the scenic views, the adventures and nearby activities. To top off, the snow was what we were not used to but enjoyed everyday of our stay. We will definitely visit again in a near future.

Pond Hockey Hangout
The property management was responsive to queries and worked with our timing issues. The location was in a great setting, make sure to have AWD in winter. The home slept 11 but could easily sleep more. Sheets and towels were fresh. The grill worked, there isn't much more we could ask for.

This house was the perfect place to stay for our visit to the Rocky Mountains. The town of Grand Lake was adorable and the house was very close to restaurants, stores, and the park. The lady at Grand Mountain Rentals was very professional and helpful! Would definitely stay again.

Great Rental Cabin
This place is great for a large group. Very nice outdoor areas, easy to find, spacious interior and clean. For how nice everything in the house is, a better grill would be nice. It worked though and we cooked some really nice meals in the house.

Loads of fun
We had a wonderful time our neighbors were so nice. First vacation with all the grandkids so our normal fun thing when there were limited. We found out-put and the hover cars and race cars. Kids and adults had a blast all day. Three straight years in that area and will still go back as much as possible

Beautiful Views & Great Location
Stayed for a long weekend and went fishing on Grand Lake and Lake Granby. House was equipped with everything you needed, including kitchen items and bathroom essentials. Home had beautiful views of the mountains (and the recent burn area) and less than a 5 minute drive to RMNP and Grand Lake. We saw a mama moose and her baby at the end of the driveway, across the street. The long driveway was spacious enough for us to park our pontoon. You won't be disappointed! Hope to return in the future! Thank you.

Beautiful location! Fun times
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had a wonderful time together. Plenty of room for everyone. Beautiful home and simply decorated. There should be more maintenance done on this house, however. The window on the left side of the fireplace leaked badly during a Mountain rain storm. Several lightbulbs were out and we especially missed the one in the refrigerator that was out. A few repair and maintenance touches would make this outstanding stay. As is I would give 3-4 stars.

Nice mountain getaway
We had a family reunion at Ryan’s retreat beginning March. The stay was awesome, we had everything we needed in this house. Kitchen was full of kitchenware, appliances and other stuff. Although we got our skillet to make eggs in the morning. I would suggest host to add more bath towels and warm blankets, since third floor is not that warm. Also I would suggest to add rugs in the bathrooms since the tile floor is cold in bathrooms. Make sure to get propane tank at the office ahead of time, so that you don’t have drive there when you are grilling. Overall we really liked our stay, the house is very nice and clean, views are awesome and can enjoy that from family room. Thank you for such a nice house!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great property. Great location. We had a wonderful time with our extended family of 12. Be aware... there are no curtains/blinds in this house. Absolutely no privacy or way to keep the bright afternoon sun out. Even the window in the first floor bathroom shower is completely exposed. We felt like we were on display, especially at night with the lights on inside. Because of that, we won't rent this home again. Otherwise, it was a great place to be.

Ryan’s retreat
Overall it was a good experience. We spent most days out on excursions, I think the place could have been “cleaner” Pots n pans had to be cleaned prior to using,we had to keep washing bath and kitchen towels to keep clean towels available. Trash had to be hauled off into town,in special trashbags which were NOT supplied,that we were expected to purchase at $5/each , we killed several spiders throughout the house. There were several “mechanical “ issues that should have been taken care of before guests arrived ie; screen door on hot third floor would not stay closed,dryer sounded like it was about to take off every time it was used, no working light in laundry room,fireplace in master bedroom was not working,.Carpets definitely need cleaned!!

Convenient location.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay, and only minutes from Grand Lake. The office staff located in Grand Lake was professional and accommodating. They even mailed to my daughter some clothes she forgot at the house when we left. With that said, this is a beautiful home that is being allowed to fall into disrepair. Many of the windows was not operable, and without A/C, was an annoyance. The deadbolts on the exterior doors were also difficult to operate. The rot on the handrails of the second story deck was so deep the rails were no longer structurally sound. There was also some misc. debris and roof shingles littering the lot. A $1,000 bill and a handyman for 3 or 4 days could put this place back into shape.

Just Like The Picture
The property and location is honestly hard to beat! The views are amazing. The downtown area isn't far from the property either. Accessing the main living area is a bit tricky, as you have to enter from the 3rd floor and go up to the main. The kids loved it haha, not so much the older adults. There is ample space for the entire family. Even with the max of 16 people you still dont feel squished. The fireplace in the living area worked flawlessly which was a plus. Unfortunately the fireplace in the main bedroom did not, we attempted several times for several days. The check in process is a bit frustrating. Instead of checking in with a code or a key box located on the property, you have to actually drive into town and go to the office. So all those that's had a long flight, drive or the airport has just frustrated you, you still have to drive to the office before entering the beautiful property. The office was very helpful and even allowed an early check in due to our flight being really early in the AM. We do feel that check out is extremely early at 10am however, I'm sure this is done for a reason. All in all we loved our stay.
