An awe-inspiring view of Grand Lake, Shadow Mountain Lake, and Lake Granby awaits at this five-bedroom home in the Rocky Mountains, stunningly situated among the treetops just outside the town of Grand Lake.
This is an alpine setting you'll return to year after year, where you can spend your days boating and fishing, exploring Rocky Mountain National Park, and skiing the renowned slopes of Winter Park Resort. It's an outdoor paradise for hikers, golfers, and winter sports enthusiasts, with big skies, gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and activities in every direction.
The outdoor spaces make the most of the incredible view, including a covered deck on the first floor, an upper balcony that runs the length of the house, and an elevated deck where you can barbecue, dine alfresco, and marvel at your surroundings.
The heart of the home is the light-filled living room, which features a wall of windows framing the mountains, a smart TV, and a two-sided gas fireplace that also warms the dining room. Picture windows, skylights, and stainless steel appliances make for a beautiful kitchen as well. After dinner each evening, head downstairs to the den for a movie night, leave the day's clothes to spin in the laundry room, and indulge in a restful night's sleep in one of the five bedrooms.

To be fair, we would stay here again. But only for the size and location of the property. Pros: There are eight sleeping areas (nine beds). The small space off the primary bedroom was a nice surprise. The views are amazing and you can't see any neighbors. Furthermore, the proximity to Grand Lake was great. Cons: The cleanliness of the home was poor, at best. Floors were filthy; there were mouse droppings in the cabinets; and even a dead mouse (complete with maggots) in the secondary bathroom cabinet. We get that this is a mountain home, but clearly the cleaning crew failed to do even the minimal check needed to ensure the space was sanitary. There's no AC, which would be fine except there are also no screens on the windows. So opening windows to cool down also invites the insects. We opted to suffer the heat. Also this is a safety issue with young kids. Provisions are poor. Kitchen included one frying pan and one sauce pan to cook meals for 15 guests. We had to scrounge for towels (of which there were just 15), and no detergent when we needed to wash them due to the mouse droppings. Homeowners have done nothing to make the space inviting. Artwork included religious and personal pictures, and absolutely nothing in the lower level. The sofas were comfortable but the bedroom and dining furniture was clunky. Vacasa's customer service is nonexistent when it comes to correcting issues. Apologies but no solutions or follow through. Stay here, just know what your getting.
