Log Chalet with Amazing Views- Special Winter Pricing- Book Now!

My family welcomes you to Blue Spruce Vista, our dream come true in Grand Lake! Nestled on Woodpecker Hill, just above the Town, this amazing true Log Chalet provides comfortable living and sleeping spaces for up to 9 people. The vaulted ceilings, stone fireplace, and open floor plan on the main level is designed for spending time together. The 3 private bedrooms and additional loft ensures everyone has their private space. Through the 2 sliding glass doors or the abundant windows, you are enchanted by the Panoramic views of Mount Baldy in Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand Lake, and the magnificent Shadow Mountain Lake. Step out onto the wraparound deck where there is plenty of room to take in the view, hang out and have a drink, or cook up some s’mores in the wood fired chiminea. Winter or Summer, the scenery while grilling on the propane BBQ grill can not be duplicated.
Fantastic cooking in the brand new Thermal micro/oven. Our well-stocked kitchen offers cooking and baking items galore, a dining table with seating for 8 and table settings for all. If you need to pull together a dinner or forgot that one thing, the Mountain Market is just down the hill. A quick walk or snowmobile ride into town, the house offers the ideal location that allows you the serenity of the mountains with the conveniences of the Village, and the Lake close by. We are pet friendly and would love to host up to 2 dogs (additional pet fee applies). High speed internet through Xfinity X1, Roku HDTV’s, boardgames and puzzles and a DVD player are included. You may just catch an Elk, Moose or Fox grubbing in the yard. Plan your next Grand County adventure at Blue Spruce Vista and enjoy the activities of Grand Lake as well as all the amenities and comfort of our home.

Winter Driving:
Please be prepared before beginning your drive to Grand Lake! Four wheel drive vehicles are highly recommended. Keep in mind that in Colorado, chain laws for non-commercial vehicles can be put into effect at any time. It is not advisable to drive Berthoud Pass in a front-wheel drive vehicle unless you a comfortable putting chains on yourself. Although our street and the main roads are well maintained, it is required to go up a steep, dirt road to the house and can require 4 wheel drive. Weather and driving conditions can change rapidly in the mountains. We cannot accommodate weather-related refunds, please plan accordingly.

Great Thanksgiving stay

This house was perfect for our family of 5 over Thanksgiving. Plenty of space, well stocked with supplies. The pictures don’t do the view of the lake and the mountains justice. The owner was very responsive and accommodating. We will be back.

An amazing week!

We booked this cabin for our honeymoon, and we were pleasantly surprised by the chocolate covered strawberries and candles the host set out for us. It was super thoughtful and made our stay special! The view here is incredible, and the house has all that you can think of for your stay. We traveled with our dog, so we cooked most of our meals and we had all we needed and more! The mountain market at the bottom of the hill has so much to offer as well! We saw a herd of elk every morning just 5 mins away just right in Rocky Mountain National Park. Amazing location and cabin!

Grand time in Grand Lake

My family and I enjoyed a birthday celebration in Grand Lake and Rocky Mountain NP. The cabin was comfortable, and my Grandson especially liked his hideaway in the loft. The property is dog-friendly and has a beautiful view. These things are always at the top of my list when choosing a property.

Beautiful views!!

Nice house. We were unhappy that the outside trash dumpster had not been emptied and then not secured well enough from wildlife. Trash was strewn twice in three days all over the driveway by a bear(?) We contacted the host but ended up picking it up ourselves both times so as not to attract more problems.

A Perfect Spot For Family Reunion

This is an amazing property that accommodated our multi-generational family very well. We had everything we needed to cook together, play together, and watch movies together. The view is amazing, the quaint downtown is literally a couple of minutes away, and the lakes offered many activities for us. The house was clean and the host was very responsive to all of our needs!

The perfect place in Grand Lake

You will not be disappointed in any way if you stay at this beautiful home. All of the amenities you have at home. The home was clean and included many fun things for younger kids, if you have them. Communication with the host was easy and very responsive. The location was fabulous, close to town and the view of Grand Lake was absolutely stunning. My husband told me when we checked out that the next time we come to Grand Lake, he wanted to stay at this home. Definitely recommend!!

Beautiful View

The house was well situated with stunning lake views. It had everything we needed and the kitchen pots/pans/tools were nice and well stocked. The kids had a great time and enjoyed being a very close drive to the park in town. We didn’t realize there wasn’t a standing shower in the master, but there is one on the main level of the house. We appreciated early check-in and the owner was very accommodating.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The house is even better than we imagined. It’s absolutely beautiful and the view is amazing. We rented a car for the weekend and had no problem finding the house and there’s plenty of space to park. Jaci was very prompt to respond to any messages we sent. Overall was perfect for 6 adults. We would stay here again for sure.

Amazing and relaxing weekend

The cabin had a warm cozy feeling as soon as we walked in. The view of Grand Lake and the town from the deck was amazing! There was ample room for us to relax and have family time. And to top it off we were blessed with an overnight 3" snowfall! A great time and great memories! Thank you for sharing this amazing cabin!

Beautiful views - misleading listing

I mostly wanted to discuss the mention of a hot tub at this property -- there is NOT a hot tub and I think the host was intentionally misleading about that. We scoured the reviews before we stayed as we didn't see pictures of the hot tub, but the listing says that there is one. After we arrived, we asked the host and they responded quickly and said they were referring to the Jacuzzi tub in the main bathroom. Considering this was the only filter we used to stay at this house while searching listings, I would imagine others would do the same in their search. Since my friends and I did not intend to sit around in a bathtub together on our weekend away, we were pretty let down by this. Most of the home is pretty dated, which is interesting because the host is now trying to claim damages. We had a good time, the views were beautiful, town is lovely, but we would have stayed elsewhere had I known these facts. Unfortunately, this house seems to be a money grab by the owners at every turn, and I would advise you stay away.

A wonderful getaway!

We had a wonderful time at this VRBO! The kitchen was fully stocked by far more than most, the beds were so comfortable, and the amount of games was also a great touch! Close enough to town but sits back in the trees so there is an amazing unblocked view of Grand Lake! We had an issue and the host was so wonderful helping accommodate to make everything work out. She is super responsive and helpful, treated us like we had known her for years how kind and hospitable she is. We would definitely go back! Thank you!!

Grand Lake over the Holidays

What a spectacular view of the snow capped mountains from the couch that allowed me to curl up with the dog and read books and bring in the New Year all the while watching the incredible fireworks display over the lake. Cabin has all that you need and is well furnished and extremely comfortable and convenient to be both "away" from town but just a quick mile and you are downtown!

Wonderful property during the changing of the aspens

We are a group of middle-aged and retired hikers and outdoors enthusiasts. The property had great views through changing aspens across Shadow Mountain Lake to Byers Peak. The house itself was a marvelous mountain log lodge, with modern amenities, and was very clean. We had to resist the urge to just relax on the deck enjoying the view all day!

About the host

Hosted by Jaci Piel

Host profile image
Hi, I am Jaci. My family and I are excited to share are favorite place in Colorado with you. We are hard working and want to make your Grand County experience the best it can be throughout your stay at Blue Spruce. In my younger years I always wanted to have a place in the mountains and share it with others. My dream has come true.

Why they chose this property

It took only one glance at the view from this house to be fully enchanted. It's a magical place. It's cozy and comfortable, and every day I spend there I fall further in love.

What makes this property unique

Of all the homes in Grand Lake, this one is special. A real log home with just the perfect balance of privacy and proximity to the conveniences in Town. Rocky Mountain National Forest is just around the corner and Shadow Mountain Lake is in the backyard.
The house is so comfy but has all the modern conveniences we are used to.
