Please read on for more details.
The Property:
The home has 3 levels of space to enjoy and you enter on the main or middle level. The primary living room is large and feels very spacious, thanks to the 20 foot high vaulted ceilings. It has two sets of French doors and second story windows that provide a good amount of natural light. The elk antler chandelier, black walnut hardwood floors, and stacked rock fireplace accentuate the comfortable leather furniture. The dining room seats 8 comfortably, with two more chairs available for a total of 10. It adjoins the living room and kitchen and also has direct access to the large back deck. The back deck has dining tables with seating for 8, a sitting area for 5, a gas grill, and great views. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's delight with plenty of space and great flow. Brazilian granite slab counters and stainless steel appliances are just the beginning. The custom cabinetry throughout includes dishwashing drawers. The large island includes bar seating for prep work. There is a nook for coffee or other beverages and empty cabinet space for your groceries. The appliances are great too, with wall mounted ovens, a gas range, and a fridge that includes filtered water and ice that lets you avoid wasteful bottled water. This level also includes one bedroom suite (Bedroom and Bathroom 3), a half bathroom, and laundry.
Bedroom 1 is a very large suite found upstairs. It includes a beautiful King size bed, an armchair, gas fireplace, vaulted T & G ceilings with exposed beams, a ceiling fan, and wall mounted HDTV. This bedroom has views looking south and north, across Shadow Mountain Lake to Rocky Mountain National Park. The bathroom within this bedroom suite features travertine tile around the terraced bathtub, the dual sink vanity, and throughout the 6 headed shower with bench. Take in a view of the lake while you relax in the large jacuzzi tub, which can comfortably accommodate two people, or enjoy a shower that is thoroughly refreshing. There's also a large walk in closet for all of your things. Bedroom 2 is also upstairs. It features a Queen bed, vaulted ceilings, and mountain views. Like bedroom 1, the furniture set is of high quality. The private bathroom here includes a water closet, large walk in shower, and a walk in closet. Bedroom 3 is on the main level but still has vaulted ceilings. Yet again the furniture is exquisite. This Queen bedroom is quite large. It has a table and chairs for two, a walk in closet, and direct access to the back deck. The private bathroom features two copper sinks, another large jacuzzi tub big enough for two people, a separate shower, and a water closet. Bedroom 4 is downstairs and is so large that it easily accommodates a King size sleigh bed with matching bedside tables, dresser and two ceiling fans. The bathroom is massive and includes a large dual headed steam shower so you can create your own luxury spa experience. This big bathroom can be accessed directly from the bedroom or from the lower living room, in case your group includes anyone sleeping in the bunk beds.
The lower living room is quite a big space. The log frame bunk beds include a Twin over Twin and a Twin over Full. So this space could work for a couple, 5 kids, or a mix. This big bonus room includes a wet bar with fridge, a foldable and moveable ping pong table, and comfy furniture surrounding a larger HDTV, new in summer 2022. From here you can also access the lower level deck, which is shaded, a great place to relax with a book.

Great home in very convenient area, excellent views of Shadow Mountain Reservoir.
We loved the house and the view is spectacular. Our family vacation was wonderful and staying at this property was a major reason why.
Beautiful property. The outside deck table could be a lot larger. This property can accommodate many people, so why the tiny deck table? Also, trying to get a hold of property management was not easy. I had a few questions, and when I called, no one answered, I texted, not response till hours later. My early check in was approved; however, the key pad did not work at the time we were allowed to check in. We got in through an unlocked sliding door. I tried calling the property manager to let them know we needed in, but they did not get back to me until 4:15 (when I called at 2:00). Bottom line, everything was great, except the property management.
Beautiful house and staff at Mountain Vacation Lodging VERY helpful and thorough (especially Sam and Alexis).
Property and house location was great. Grand Lake was great. We loved the layout of the bedrooms and bathrooms. Kitchen had everything we needed. Unfortunately it was very hot due to weather on top floor. No a/c and screens were not on all the windows upstairs so couldn’t open all. Pillows were flat.
This property was just wonderful. Everyone had space to be together or just to relax quietly if you wanted. We cook a lot and the kitchen was fully stocked with lots of cookware for easy prep. Plenty of hot water for our large group. Beautiful property with so much to do around it. Be sure to check out the local activities, we had a blast. We are definitely planning another trip and this will be the place we go to. Also, the owners and property management were gratious with our requests and we really appreciated that. Fantastic place
This place was incredible! Spacious for our extended family and the area was full of things to do outdoors. Would love to stay here again!
Nice upscale home with lots of room. Kids loved the bunk beds and table tennis. Would consider staying again for a longer period of time so that the cleaning fees didn't dominate the total cost.
This is a wonderful house tucked into a quiet, beautiful neighborhood! We would certainly go back. So much room and great amenities!
What a great property! Easy check-in, beautiful house with tons of room and great views. We used the kitchen a lot during our stay and loved all of the kitchen equipment, but there were only 2 dishwasher pods and a few drops of dish soap. There was no cleaning spray to wipe down the counters and no hand soap in most of the bathrooms. I called the office and was told that they only supply the first day for you. So if you plan on cooking in the kitchen, bring your own cleaning supplies.
Easy to get to very quiet neighborhood. Less than 10 min from town.
