Come stay in our charming, mountain lake home and enjoy the gorgeous, 180 degree views of Rocky Mountain National Park and Shadow Mountain Lake. Cook up a hearty breakfast in the kitchen and enjoy a cup of coffee while savoring the views, quiet location, and easy access to numerous activities. An artesian spring and willow bushes provide natural attractions for moose, fox, elk and other animals which you will likely see during your visit.

This cabin is the ideal place for you to make those special memories that will last a lifetime. Have fun hanging out together and getting away from it all - enjoy board games, doing a puzzle, or just relaxing in the laid back Colorado mountains.

Return to the cozy cabin after a busy day in the mountains and sink into the soft recliner couch with a bowl of popcorn to watch a movie. When it's time for bed, climb our signature spiral staircase to the master bedroom and loft, aka "the fort," which is perfect for the young and the young at heart. Then nestle under the warm quilts for sweet dreams, until you awake to another amazing day in Grand Lake, Colorado.

Area Description

Our cabin is located 2 miles south of Grand Lake, on a hill offering a panoramic view of Shadow Mountain Lake and Rocky Mountain National Park. While staying at the cabin, you will likely see some wildlife, including moose, fox, coyotes, elk, chipmunks, sea gulls, and pelicans. If you don't see any animals around the cabin, head over to Grand Lake, a favorite hangout for moose, or Rocky Mountain National Park which is home to many critters. This is a worthy destination in any case, due to the incredible views and the opportunity to pass over Trail Ridge Road, the highest continuous paved road in the nation.

Year round activities abound: we are located within 30 minutes of fabulous Colorado skiing at Winter Park and Solvista Basin, while Steamboat is about 1 hour away. You can also enjoy snowshoeing and cross country skiing in the area. Grand Lake is known as the snowmobile capital of Colorado, with hundreds of miles of trails. Hot Sulpher Springs Spa is minutes away.

With three lakes in the area, you can boat, waterski, sail, fish, and swim. There is also hiking, biking, fishing, rock-climbing, hunting, horseback riding, and more!
