Communication with the owner was great. Property and house were beautiful. really cool back yard was great for the three families that stayed there…lots of common space but also lots of nooks and crannies to create separation. in the perfect spot, 1 minute to the marina, 3 to the city, 4 to the park. would definitely recommend!

Grand Lake, Colorado trip

Best vacay yet! The house is amazing! Katie gifted us with a wonderful welcome basket with a nice bottle of wine, brownies and an amazing loaf of bread. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. We cooked everyday more because we enjoyed the house so much. Pearl, the property manager met us there and showed us the house and gave us a warm welcome. It is only a few minutes from Grand Lake which is such a neat town. You have amazing views of mountains and Grand Lake. And it's only 5 minutes from Rocky mountain national park. The hot tub was wonderful and the gas fire pit was perfect every night. The beds were comfy We! We will miss Colorado!

Second stay here! Will come again!

We have stayed here twice for a family getaway, and love the place. Roomy, cozy, comfortable, and relaxing. Beautiful, natural, quiet environment. Hot tub a real plus, and back porch eating in fine mountain weather delightful. We all (ages 2-1/2 to 77) wished we could have stayed longer!

Perfect place for a family get together!

Our family stayed here to celebrate my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary and we had a wonderful visit! The hot tub, fire pit, and deck were big hits with our group. There was plenty of room for our large group to spread out and we thought the location was great. I highly recommend this property!

Great cabin for families

I stayed with my wife and three kids 12-17 for five nights, and we had a wonderful time. The cabin is a short, convenient drive to Grand Lake but still feels secluded. There was plenty of space for everyone to have their own bedroom and for board games and a puzzle. We really enjoyed the hot tub when the evening got cool, and the sun room was great for morning coffee. The house was very clean, well equipped, and well maintained.

We stayed here 4 years ago and really enjoyed our time. I was a little worried that maybe things had changed (for the worse) and that was not the case. Very well stocked home. Nice location, quiet. The hot tub was a huge hit! Thanks so much Katie!!!

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.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Katie James

Host profile image
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!
