About this property

The Coziest Colorado River Cabin in Grand Lake, with incredible Rocky Mtn views!

Lil' Piece of Heaven is our newly remodeled 1960's cabin!

Reconnect with Nature and listen to the Colorado River from the steps of our Grand Lake cabin! This is the quintessential Colorado vibe you are looking for. Newly remodeled with local pine and upgrades that feels like a dream mountain retreat. This adorable 1960s cabin sits atop the Colorado River with absolutely amazing views in every direction. It is located 4 miles to downtown Grand Lake and less than a mile from Shadow Mountain lake where you can enjoy all the things! Biking, kayaking, paddleboarding, hiking, fishing, bird watching, swimming, picnicking, backpacking, outdoor games, shopping and all the adventure our small mountain town brings.

There is a cozy living room, expandable dining table, family room with new 65” tv and fully stocked kitchen with updated appliances. The cabin includes 2 TV’s with Amazon fire stick and Roku, a Wii gaming system and CD player with lots of movies. The main cabin can accommodate up to 4 guests in the two bedrooms (both with queen beds) and 4 more guests in the bunkhouse area where you will find the 3rd bedroom (queen bed). There is a futon bunkbed with a queen and twin bed in the family room area. (Curtains can be pulled to create a bit of privacy in this space) Washer and Dryer are also available in the powder room. Office space with printer.

Enjoy the outdoor space with beautiful views of the Colorado River, (access to the river down a switch back trail during summer) Shadow Mountain Lake and Never Summer Mountain range of the Rocky Mountains. The views are absolutely amazing right out the front door. There is both a gas and charcoal grill or try some smores over a crackling fire in the outdoor gazebo with fire-pit. Enjoy the sounds of the river as you sit under the patio at our outdoor bar and fireplace. Moose, bear, deer, elk, fox and other critters have been known to pass through so bring your camera!
Access to the Colorado River is right behind the cabin! Fish, pan for gold, cold plunge and splash in the river! 2 kayaks and 2 mountain bikes on site for your enjoyment.

Cozy Cabin for Our Holiday Stay!

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin for Christmas. Clean, spacious and cozy. We loved both sitting areas in the main living area and the bunkhouse. Beautiful property in a great location and Kenna is very responsive. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality and we would love to stay again in the near future.

Best Grand Lake Cabin !

We are a group of 5 women ( friends for 50 years). We gather every year for 3-4 days. This was the best property ever. So cozy and very well done. Loved the furnishings and attention to all the little details. The firepit was wonderful to sit around in the evenings and look at the stars. We have a couple of gourmet cooks in our group and they had everything they needed to prepare those meals. The outdoor spaces were amazing and lots of different seating spots to sit and enjoy the beauty. Took a short walk down to the river and even found a bench by the river. The hosts at this cabin have thought of everything ! We have all agreed this is our spot and this is where we will stay ! the sta.s.

Cozy cabin with great location!

This was our best VRBO rental hands down. The host has extremely thoughtful touches throughout the cabin that really enhance the stay. The location is great-we spent a day checking out river and hanging out at the cabin which is super cozy. The next day spent day out on Grand Lake! Highly recommend this cabin-it was one of the highlights of our vacation :)

fishing trip

Friends on a fishing trip to Colorado. Our group takes "Bucket List" trips every two years to different parts of the US. This year it was Colorado. We were all comfortable with plenty of room, kitchen appliances and utensils, as we cooked every meal in the cabin. Enjoyed the firepit area and the outdoor bar seating. Great place. Would go again.

Perfect Colorado getaway

Everything about the property was exactly as described, clean, comfortable, roomy, and well appointed. The hosts clearly care about their guests' experience and have thoughtfully prepared the cabin and property for a fantastic, stress free stay. The location is perfectly remote while maintaining easy access to many local attractions. The river was breathtaking (the view, the climb, and the temp). Perfect! Oh, and the master bath feels like your own private spa! We couldn't have enjoyed our stay more. Thanks to Kenna for sharing your Lil' Piece of Heaven in the Rockies.

I was seriously so sad to leave this place. It really is so great and wonderful for family and friends. We went with 4 adults and 2 toddlers and had a wonderful time. The husbands loved walking down to the river to do a plunge. There's so much space. Definitely will come back!

A little piece of heaven

The cabin and location was just beautiful and so peaceful. My family loved being there relaxing and enjoying themselves. The host had a very large variety of games, Bikes and other things to do. We mostly enjoyed having A fire in the fire pit at night and just talking and making great memories. They want to go there again next year. Thank you for letting us stay.

Absolutely amazing!!

If I could give it more than 5 stars I would! Not only was it clean, well stocked and gorgeous, it fit our family of 5 with room to spear. The location was beautiful and so relaxing. We found ourselves wanting to be back at the property hanging out as opposed to exploring our surroundings. We will definitely book again!

There were indoor and outdoor games and activities for the kids. It was a great location. The host was very quick to respond to questions and provided a lot of information. It was a beautiful property and I highly recommend it. We would definitely come again.

Great Cabin and location at Grand Lake

Lil’ Peace of Heaven is the perfect place to enjoy the Grand Lake area. Just a few miles out of town with a view of Shadow Mountain Lake and the North Fork of the Colorado River. The property has lots of amenities and outdoor space to enjoy the peace and quiet of the mountains or for family and friends to gather. I would highly recommend staying here and will consider it for future visits to Grand Lake.

Great place in a great area

This house has all you could want in a mountain vacation. The location allows for easy access to all surrounding attractions. In five days we hiked mountain trails, fished, kayaked, paddle boarded, rafted and explored the beautiful RMNP. The house itself is very nice, clean, well furnished and has just the right amount of Colorado mountain quirkiness. Communication with the host, check-in/check-out and price were easy and reasonable. If you want to experience mountains, lakes, a national park, a great mountain downtown, an awesome house and great hospitality from a host this is the place.

We really enjoyed our stay, everything was as advertised and more. Perfect place for a family or a couple. Excellent location for Rocky Mtn Natl Park access. We enjoyed relaxing above the Colorado River, listening to the sound of the rushing water go by. Kenna provided excellent communication throughout the process, she's a great host. We strongly recommend this Lil Piece of Heaven. If we make it back through there, we wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Mountain Getaway

Our stay at Lil Piece of Heaven near Grand Lake, CO was perfect! This is definitely the quiet side of experiencing Rocky Mtn National Park. Grand Lake and Granby have many outdoor activities to choose from. Our host Kenna has a wonderful informative binder in the house that will help in suggesting things to do in the area. In addition, Grand Lake has a visitor center that was very helpful. This was the perfect location for a quiet mountain getaway....I would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Kenna

Host profile image
Our family has lived in Parker, CO for over 20 years and consider Grand Lake our second home. We love all the outdoor conveniences our little cabin has to offer for every season. When we are not busy with our everyday lives, we enjoy escaping to our lil' piece of heaven for hiking, fishing, boating, paddle boarding, kayaking, skiing, sledding, snowmobiling, mountain biking and hosting our extended family and friends.

Why they chose this property

The charm of the cabin built in the 1960's plus the Colorado River in our back yard really attracted us to this property.

What makes this property unique

We are excited to show you all the new renovations! We love the outdoor space and have created an atmosphere that is cozy and comfortable inside and inspiring and relaxing outside. The sounds of the river, from the roaring runoff in the spring to the soft sounds of winter are more than we could ever dream. Couple this with a warm crackling fire and you have the Colorado Rockies at it's best! The occasional Moose meandering down to the river is not something most folks see everyday but it's a common occurrence there.
