About this property

Grandview Lodge at 8400 ft near Golden/Boulder, CO

Breathtaking panoramic Continental Divide views from Indian Peaks to Longs Peak to Twin Sisters Peak with numerous rock formations at this home in the mountains of Golden, CO. Located off a private drive, this property offers views, privacy, and proximity to Boulder, Golden, and Nederland with endless recreation opportunities out the backdoor.

Guest access:

Guests will have complete privacy during their stay and will be provided a code for entrance. With that said, I live minutes away in the surrounding community and can be available as needed. I'm also very familiar with the local area and would be happy to help with any recommendations from the popular destinations to the hidden gems.

Other things to note:

Property is located off a well maintained private road. In winter, this road is plowed but AWD or FWD with winter tires/chains is required.

The house also has high speed Internet but cell coverage is limited. WiFi calling can be used for any phone calls.

Great stay, great host!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was beautiful, cozy, and had everything we needed. What really stood out, though, was the host—he went above and beyond to help our group when we got stuck in the snow. He was incredibly responsive, communicative, and shared lots of helpful information for our stay. We felt well taken care of from start to finish. Highly recommend staying here!

Great Place with Great Views

This is a great property with Great views. We were able to see fog flow into the valley one of the nights we were there. The property is awesome, and I would recommend staying here in a heartbeat.

Great time!!

Great time at a beautiful property. Very spacious with open floor plan and tall ceilings. Loved having 3 bathrooms. Showers had good water pressure. Beds were comfortable. The view is second to none from the huge deck. We came in at night, there was a dense fog, and there is no wifi in that area. We got lost and it was stressful. We called Phil from a nearby town (nearby town had wifi thank God), he answered at midnight and got us to the property. We plan on renting next year and will make sure flight arrives in the afternoon.

Great place to stay!

If looking for views plus a quiet place to stay where you can still have access to both mountain and city, this is the place! My family went to Denver, Golden, Boulder, Rocky Mountain National park, Nederland, plus other areas to hike on the front range mountains, and all places were easily accessible from this house! You can't beat the pictures we took of the higher mountains within view from the deck of the house, and the owner was great in answering all questions before and during our stay. I'd definitely stay at this house again and wish we were able to stay longer during this vacation! To the owner thanks again for all your help!

Peaceful

The property was very nice and very scenic. It was kept very clean. The location was great, it wasn't too far from Estes Park, Loveland, Colorado Springs. It was very quiet and peaceful. During our week there, we saw only one person around the property walking their dog. The solitude was great. I hope to return during May of 2024.

Wonderful place

This was a beautiful property with great views of the Front Range. Plenty of space upstairs and downstairs and very well equipped. We sat on the deck every night after long days of hiking and exploring. There were no neighbor problems or noise. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. The owner Phil was extremely helpful with suggestions and answering questions. Don't be afraid to rent this one!

Comfortable, lovely view

This was just the place for a little getaway for a family of 3 couples. Beds comfortable, linens good quality, and bedding nice and warm. Towels plentiful. We liked the versatility of the dining room benches, using them as tables for the couches. Lots of silverware and plates. We are all cooks, so the kitchenware was a little sparse for us. One great, large saute pan was a life saver. We could have used another baking dish and a few other nice cooking pans. But we made do and not a deal-breaker at all. Prep ware was plentiful. Phil was great and responsive. Loved the walk to the top of the hill. Plowing/parking excellent. We would love to return.

Most Disappointing VRBO Say Ever

Infested with roaches and gnats. Smelled musty. Went to open the basement windows to air the place out and they were covered with spider webs and bugs. Garage smelled like a dumpster. Driveway was a lake for the entire week, but I've got a jeep so np. Weeds growing up through the front entryway steps. 12 ethernet jacks in the master bedroom. WTH? Large wraparound deck but no outdoor table and minimal outdoor seating. No backsplash on the kitchen countertops. Yes, I made the mistake of looking in the gaps between the countertop and the wall - eck. Motorcycle traffic roaring up the canyon all weekend and rock music echoing out of the surrounding homes (bar?) on the hillside. Bathroom sink didn't drain, and the fridge died on day two. The owner did fix those issues but admitted the fridge was on the fritz to begin with. Would have been nice to have known that before I stocked it with a couple hundred bucks worth of food and lost some of it. When my teen girls found out they had to sleep in the weird basement bedroom they looked at me like Kevin in Home Alone when Mrs. McCallister sent him up to the attic to sleep. Still haven't heard the end of it from them. We were quite disappointed that other reviewers didn't mention these things.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I'm an avid outdoor enthusiast so lucky to live in the mountains of Colorado. If I'm not relaxing at home soaking in the views, you can likely find my wife and I exploring nearby trails and open spaces with our two pups, shredding the local singletrack mountain biking, or trekking up one of the many mountain peaks. The beauty and friendly, relaxed culture of Colorado truly never ceases to amaze me.
