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.

This cabin is amazing ! This is my 3rd stay here with friends and now there is no other place that can compare. The host Kenna is very responsive and available whenever you need something. Clean comfortable beds. Slept like a baby .Beautiful location with awesome views and so many outdoor spots to enjoy the views and listen to the sounds of the river below. The cabin is so well appointed and thoughtfully laid out. The kitchen has everything that you need to cook delicious meals. Cozy living areas and plenty of room to spread out. All of the little touches, design and cute messages throughout the cabin make it cozy and inviting. Can't say enough good things about this place !

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.

Perfect cabin in Grand Lake

We had a wonderful long weekend at this cabin in Grand Lake. The location is perfect, just a few minutes from town with breathtaking views. This was the most well stocked vrbo we’ve stayed at. It had everything we could possibly need. The beds were comfy, we had plenty of space for family of four and our pup. Highly recommend.

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!

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.

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!

We had a great experience. I had my family from out of town in. There were 3 adults and five children. The cabin was wonderful. We had plenty of room. 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.

Wonderful birthday weekend!

Our stay was delightful in every way. We planned a quick two night stay to celebrate my son's 8th birthday. It was great to find a place that we could bring our dog along. I very rarely stay in VRBOs that are so well equipped! We really appreciated everything in the kitchen and the new appliances. We are hoping to plan a second trip to come up in the summer when we can take advantage of all of the great outdoor amenities! Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

Cross Country Ski Trip

This property is in a great location and has everything described in listing and more. Very clean. Kenna was great. She alerted us that Hwy. 40 closed due to avalanche as she knew that was our intended route home. She even offered the cabin to us for an additional night if we could not make it out. Highly recommend this property and we hope to return.

Great Experience. Lives up to the Reviews!

This cabin fit our group of 4 adults and 4 small kids very comfortably. The listing is exactly as advertised. There were plenty of outdoor games, chairs, and the kitchen is completely stocked with everything we needed for 4 nights of cooking. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit area every night and the sound from the Colorado river is exactly what you what you hope for. The owner was extremely responsive and accommodating. If we ever go back to the grand lake area, we will be staying here again!

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.

Perfection

We spent an amazing 4 nights at the property. We did so much at the house from walking down the hill to the river, catching brown trout, walking our dogs around the neighborhood, grilling to include both propane and charcoal, playing games, cooking, and most importantly just sitting outside and relaxing! We chose to cook every meal because the cabin was so perfect we really didn’t want to leave. There is so much to do so close like hiking, fishing the lakes, mountain biking, and walking through town. There is a really cool dog park close to Granby also. We got so lucky our last night and got to see a moose and her calf walk right through the yard while I was grilling, also lucky that I was on the porch!We cannot recommend the cabin enough.

Ladies road trip

This property was perfect for our group. My mother walks with a cane, and was able to navigate the house easily. We had been traveling for 5 days and the house was a perfect retreat. My cousin and I were able to be active while my mom and aunt rested. So many special touches. We had s’mores, glasses of wine and warmed ourselves by the pit under the gazebo. We cooked, rested, and hiked down to the river. There are so many spaces here to spread out and gather as a family. I would highly recommend the house for families and friends. Thank you for all the attention to details for a peaceful rest. Grand Lake is truly a beautiful area. Everyone we met was helpful and the homemade candy from town was a bonus. Next visit we will spend more time by the lake!!!

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.
