About this property

Stunning Vacation Home in Charming Town of Grand Lake - 5 Star Reviews - Hot Tub

Moose Ponds is an exquisite vacation home located within the town of Grand Lake with a hot tub. Guests can drive or walk to gourmet cuisine or down home cooking in local restaurants, and shopping in town is always a delight. Moose Ponds is right around the corner from both. Well maintained home, built in 2006, this home offers an abundance of amenities and discriminating designs, including an open, airy floor plan with cathedral ceilings - perfect for socializing. Large Decks are perfect for outdoor gatherings with family. Lots of games and a nice indoor and outdoor sound system. Seven night minimum.

After a day of mountain activities, guests can gather in front of the stone fireplace to relax in comfort. The hot tub, and the large shower with a double shower head available in the master bath, offer a peaceful respite. The home also features a gourmet kitchen perfect for preparing a meal for a large group. Guests will also enjoy a generous living room, dining area and a great room on the lower level that includes surround sound and a game area.

The home is tastefully decorated with fashionable furnishings, luxurious mattresses, beautifully appointed wood floors and ceilings, copper sinks and appealing/interesting art.

Your family and friends will make special memories during their vacation at Moose Ponds that can be remembered while relaxing on one of the two decks. The views from the decks of the two small ponds where wildlife frequently linger are spectacular.

No rental pets. However, we own a dog and occasionally bring him up. While our cleaner does an excellent job of removing all dust and dog hairs, please do not rent if anyone in your party has dog allergies.

Take just a short drive, and guests will encounter extraordinary Rocky Mountain National Park, one of the most beautiful places in the world. Featuring over 150 small lakes and 450 miles of streams, first-time visitors and local guests will be enchanted. Adam Falls, a magnificent waterfall, is also within camera range with just a 10 minutes hike.

Grand Lake is special any season. In the summer, it offers the best boating in Colorado on the state's largest natural lake, and Shadow Mountain and Lake Granby are only minutes away.

Guests may bring their own boat or rent from one of several facilities.

When the snow flies, the snowmobile trails are just steps away from the door at Moose Ponds. For a true Colorado skiing experience, Winter Park Ski Resort is an easy 40-minute drive. Ski Granby Ranch is 20 minutes away and is one of the best family resorts around.

Please enjoy your stay at Moose Ponds in beautiful Grand Lake, Colorado.

UPDATE: We now offer A/C, although not usually required. We replaced all the mattresses in 2025. The kitchen has a new gas cook top, microwave, double oven, drip coffee maker and blender. We have changed the twin bedroom to a custom made queen bed with a twin bunk on top.

We have stayed at several other VRBO homes in the Grand Lake area over the past few years. This is by far the best house, the best location, and the best communication with the owner than any of the others. The house is spacious and well equipped. It is located in a wooded area that seems secluded, yet is close to town. It includes all necessary items and many extras. The owner was responsive and helpful. We will definitely return.

Relaxing Retreat

We had a great time at Moose Ponds & Grand Lake. You can easily walk into town but still felt you were surrounded by nature. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the deck, use of fire pit &grill, washer & dryer. A great place to escape the summer heat.

Wonderful place to stay!

This property was a wonderful place to stay for our family vacation! There were 6 adults in our group and there was plenty of room and space for all of us to enjoy being together. The home was well stocked with everything we could possibly need which we really appreciated since the has not been our experience with other properties! It was a short drive in the RMNP for our daily excursions. We loved the decks and hot tub!

A beautiful home with all the amenities

This was the perfect home base for us and our adult children while visiting RMNP. There were enough bedrooms and sitting areas for us to spread out and not feel crowded. We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen for meal and snack prep. The hot tub was amazing for relaxing after hiking. The close proximity to Grand Lake and the amazing view of fall foliage were a great bonus.

Great House! Enjoyed our stay!

Moose Ponds was the perfect fit for our family! The location was great for the wedding we were attending at the Winding River Ranch. Grand Lake is a beautiful town rich with history..which was fun to explore! Although the house was great for entertaining we enjoyed some meals at The Sage Brush, The Rapids, and Daven Haven!! Thank you for opening your house to our family..the memories will last forever!!

Vacation headquarters

This home was the perfect launching pad for visits to Rocky Mountain National Park, white water rafting, fly fishing, golf, shopping in Grand Lake, and so much more. The house is large and well laid out for a large family to share with spaces for individual activities. The owners are sincerely interested in making certain that everything is in order for a great stay. We were in town for a wedding so that our extended family rented a number of area homes... and ours topped the list!

Moose Lakes

Our trip was great. The house was perfect. The first night only the moose visited the lake. The location is great for entry into RM National Park. It was convenient for cursing the town of Grand Lake and some local hikes. A great time was had by all. A suggestion would be to use a good quality cotton sheet on the beds and replace the teflon pans when they get scratched.

Fulfilled all of our winter wonderland fantasies!

My family thoroughly enjoyed themselves at Gerald’s beautiful home nestled in Grand Lake. Gerald was quick to respond to all of our questions, the home was spotless, had all the amenities we wanted (fully stocked kitchen utensils, fireplace, hot tub), and even included some we didn’t expect (such as shampoo, body wash, and plastic sleds!). Being situated within minutes of the Rocky Mountain national park allowed for us to soak in the breathtaking views while hiking Adam’s Falls (definitely one of the highlights of our trip). When we craved a little more sociability, the town was just a short drive away and had all of the quaint charm that one could ask for. We definitely plan on coming back! We want to thank the Healyey family again for helping to make our winter wonderland fantasies come true!

This was a very clean and spacious home. The main level is on the second floor with 3 bedrooms, a well stocked kitchen, and comfortable living room with a gas fireplace. The lower level has an extra queen bedroom, a bathroom, and another living room with a TV. This was perfect for my family. The beds are very comfortable, and the 3 bathrooms came in useful in the mornings. The location in Grand Lake is perfect. It is a beautiful small town, and the house was only 4 minutes from the Rocky Mountain National Park Grand Lake (west) entrance! If you have a reservation to the Bear Lake Road corridor, it takes 1.5 hours to get there, so as long as you are entering the park at the beginning of the 2 hour reservation, you will make it on time no problem. We did this 2 days in a row, and thoroughly enjoyed the drive through the park. And, if you like fishing, my goodness, lot's of great fishing spots within 15 minutes. We did not have time to fish the small ponds in front of the house, but we went to the lakes nearby (Grand Lake and Mountain Shadow Lake) and Colorado River (all within 14 minute drive- 4 minute drive to Grand Lake actually) and caught brown trout. Overall a great stay, and we would definitely rent this beautiful house again.

Beautiful location

This is an amazing property. Sitting on the gorgeous deck feels like being in a treehouse. While you can see cars going in and out of the RMNP off in the distance, it’s not annoying. Otherwise you are surrounded by trees! We loved watching the hummingbirds at the feeder. The indoor space was perfect. The open dining, kitchen and living space was wonderful. We cooked alot and always found what we needed. We drove into the park (don’t forget your timed entries!!) several times, went kayaking on Grand Lake and rented a pontoon boat! Absolutely be sure to check out Grand Lake Lodge! The views are amazing. You can eat at the bar which is a lot less expensive than the dinners! Don’t hesitate to rent this property!!

Perfect Mountain Get Away

This is the perfect property to enjoy the beautiful scenery the mountains have to offer. It is nestled among the aspen and pines and even though it is very close to town, it is very private. It is less than a 5 minute drive to the entrance to RM National Park! We saw wildlife daily... moose, deer with her twin fawns and even saw a black bear across the lake! The house itself has a large kitchen with lots of space for family gatherings/places to eat. The porches upstairs and downstairs allow for space to spread out and also to enjoy being outdoors. The owner put fans in all the bedrooms to help for those warm afternoons. Overall this is the perfect get away vacation home to enjoy all the mountains have to offer.

Incredible location - beware in winter

Beautiful personal vacation property that is utilized by the owners as well…as such the kitchen cooking items are of better quality than most VRBO/Airbnb’s. If coming in the winter/spring and snow is present, you may experience zero issues until you meet the impressive driveway without a four wheel drive or snow chains…although it’s is strongly recommended I would go further to say it is required if you actually want to park at the house…hauling grocery’s up a slippery driveway (even from the landing) is quiet challenging…all in all our family thoroughly enjoyed this property and would love to actually stay in the summer as well and enjoy the ease of access to walking everywhere in grand lake…plenty of blankets, towels, laundry detergent and fabric softener are provided as well….it’s like going to your parents vacation home….

About the host

Hosted by Gerard Healey

Host profile image
I've been renting this home since 2006 when we bought it new. We take excellent care of it and I pride myself on being responsive to my renters.

I do everything possible to maintain my 5* reviews and try to do everything possible to insure a quality vacation for our customers.

Why they chose this property

We bought this house as a place to enjoy family time. It is laid out perfectly for family time and sleeps 9 people well and has 3 full bathrooms. The decks are large and we liked the open layout of the kitchen, dining room and living room. A short walk up the hill behind the house leads to a sweeping view of Grand Lake, Shadow Mountain Lake and surrounding mountains. We decorated the house with some very nice items including artwork. We like the double shower heads in the master bath and added a nice etched art shower door to it. Really tough to find a house with some space around it, so close to town and the entrance to the national park.

What makes this property unique

This is truly a vacation home. Dressers, closets will be empty and we don't have family pictures everywhere. It's under a five minute drive to the Rocky Mountain National Park entrance and minutes to downtown and the lake. Kids can fish in our ponds (catch and release only). We offer A/C for the rare times it's needed. The hot tub is newer and large. You can enjoy games and connect to the sound system via Bluetooth and even enjoy music on the deck. We offer a home where you can connect with your friends and loved ones. We have several people come back year after year.
