Rocky Mountain Park Trip

Our family, which consisted of a 2yo, 11yo and 5 adults stayed in this lovely home. We enjoyed the large kitchen and deck with the hot tub. The laundry was a huge plus as well. We were very close to the park and the town of Grand Lake was lovely. We would definitely stay here again.

Great stay in Grand lake

We enjoyed our stay at Katie's property! It was more spacious than anticipated. The outdoor area on the property is awesome- there's a large deck with a fire pit, a campfire and a kids playground. There were lots of games and toys. We definitely recommend Katie's place and would stay there again.

This is No cabin! Delux mountain home

We had a full house and everyone was comfy from toddlers on up! The kitchen/dining area was our constant hang out with family coming and going while we made the most of our stay. We loved it all and hope we are able to return in the future. Katie, the owner was just THE best!!!

Good Stuff in Grand Lake

This was probably the best location for our yearly family trip. Close to Grand Lake yet it felt secluded. Fire pit area was a big hit with cooking and guitar playing. The house is tidy with plenty of space. Kitchen is open and allows for many chefs to spoil the soup. If we decide to go back to this part of Colorado, we will stay here again. Katie was very responsive and check-in was a breeze.

Restful Retreat in Grand Lake

Katie’s home had more than ample room for all of us to spread out. Quite clean and tidy. The hot tub was great for the evenings. We loved the short drive to Grand Lake. This small town has its own character, is very community orientated, and is not overrun by commercial enterprises that you might expect. We struck gold in the Rockies by choosing this location.

Awesome getaway!

It was a great time had by our family of 14 and 2 dogs. The house was plenty big enough for us all to spread out, the back deck was wonderful to sit and relax morning and evening and the hot tub was perfect! The area was nice and quit to enjoy the outdoors. The kids like the playground area as well. If we come to the area again we would stay here. Thank you for having us Katie!

About the host

Hosted by Katie James

We love taking in the beauty of Grand Lake year round and know you will, too! After living full time in this picturesque mountain town for many years and working in the resort industry here, we know about hospitality and what makes this local area so special and welcoming. You can stroll downtown Grand Lake and enjoy the shops, restaurants and views. Also, our home is in a perfect location to take advantage of the endless outdoor recreational activities all year long. Rocky Mountain National Park is a VERY close neighbor to our vacation home. We can't be in Grand Lake all the time now, so we hope you will enjoy our home for us while we are away!

Why they chose this property

Grand Lake is home--to residents and travelers alike. It is a little slice of heaven, perfect for family time, outdoor activity, and peace. This house is SO EASY to stay in. The theme of our feedback and reviews is that all ages love it (something for everyone) and the house is very well stocked for all your needs.

What makes this property unique

This home is a 1/4 mile from Highway 34 but you wouldn't know it sitting up on the ridge and enjoying the view. The property is around 1 acre with a huge kids' play structure, and campfire area with picnic tables and benches. Dogs have a fenced area right off the deck, so you can let them out without worrying the wild animals will get them! The hot tub is clean and built right into the deck to get in and out of easily. Kitchen is big, easy to use, has double ovens, gas range, and plenty of counter space. We have lived in Grand Lake for years, and have all the local tips, information, and connections you need!
