Another great stay at this mountain home! It’s cozy, comfy, and full of all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay!

Grand Lake Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Beehive Bungalow is as cute as a button and very well-appointed. Great view of the lake and a really nice fenced yard, which our daughter's dog was delighted with. The house is great for a family of 4, and the amenities in the bungalow and friendly spirit of the owners conveyed in their helpful notes and information made the place extra cost. We saw mule deer in the yard, tons of hummingbirds and heard elk bugling at night. The fire pit is great and the living room is good for recovering from long hikes. Kids loved the furniture and decor.

Fabulous Shabby-Chic meets Mountain/Lake Views!

First time at the bungalow but hopefully not our last. We LOVED our stay! House had all the amenities- great dishes, plenty of extras and beautifully decorated! This house was renovated with love and good decorating skills. The deck is amazing with comfy seats and fluffy throws. Our dog loved the roominess of the fenced yard and we went on great walks in the neighborhood everyday. Just loved it all! Can’t wait to return.

Not bad but not great either

The property is ok. The view is great but there were some amenities that were not available such as an ice maker and a working gas grill and an overhead light. Hot water was scarce also
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 14 October 2024
Hello Blair, Thank you for staying with us. Since your stay, the grill has been replaced, but there was always available grill grate on the firepit that could also have been used to grill at your convenience. We also did provide you with a credit for the grill issue, which was not mentioned in your review. As we also previously discussed, there are several stores within close proximity of the home where ice could have been purchased. We are truly sorry that these two minor inconveniences impacted your 3-night stay so greatly. We have found no issues with any lights in the home and hot water is absolutely readily available, the owner just has a note in the home that says a full bath of hot water might not be possible because they are on a well. - Grand Mountain Rentals

June 2023 stay at Bee Hive Bungalow

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had an amazing time at the Bee Hive Bungalow! We had a three night stay and it was amazing. The biggest fan was my nearly 10-month-old granddaughter Bea who had a great time crawling around and visiting with Auntie Sophie, who lives in Grand Lake. We had a wonderful time and since it rained a good portion of our long weekend, it was fun to look out the window at the lake and mountains and snuggle up in the cottage.
