Wonderful, clean and such a relaxing getaway

We loved our time here. We spent a week with my parents, my aunt and uncle and my husband and me. We truly felt so relaxed and comfortable. Our host left instructions which were clear and we could tell that it was important to them that we enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much for a summer vacation that we will always remember as a wonderful time to spend time with family.

2nd stay here!

Our stay was just as amazing as last year when we first stayed here. We were disappointed that we could not use the fire place this time, but understand due to the forest fire risk. We love the little shops in Gand Lake downtown area. And the town of Winter Park with all its restaurants, community center, indoor swimming pool, bowling, and ice skating! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us again!

Spacious, comfortable, clean

Lovely home, very spacious and clean. Comfortable furniture. I would definitely stay here again. No A/C which was a little adjustment for us during afternoons and at night, but most windows can be easily opened and fans made it comfortable. We enjoyed the upstairs loft where we could watch movies as a family. Also liked the spacious areas to sit and drink morning coffee. Location is fantastic, only a few minutes drive to access the RMNP and Grand Lake.

Memorial Day Getaway

This place is perfect! It’s tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, and still close enough to do lots of activities. A few days of fishing on Lake Granby and nearby Wolford Mt reservoir. There are also a lot of hiking trails in the area. And close enough to Grand Lake and Granby for dining. The house is spacious and the kitchen has everything we needed. Games and puzzles as well as a nice family room with a big TV. The beds are very comfortable. The wildlife was even a bit active as we saw some moose, deer, and a fox cone through the yard almost nightly. We’ll definitely be back.

Best vacation rental we've ever had

Thompson Lodge was far and away the best vacation rental we've ever had in15 years. The floorplan was fabulous (it would be a great house for a large group to stay). There were plenty of kitchen countertops to prepare meals. The house was clean and fully stocked with extra towels, pillows and blankets. The ceiling fans, along with opening the windows, kept the house plenty cool, even with above the average temperatures Colorado was experiencing. The house was fairly private and a short drive to Grand Lake and RMNP.

Comfortable and calm

I work nonstop and this is the one time a year I get a break from the busyness of it all. Our usual cabin was not taking bookings so we stayed here. So glad we did. There are plenty of sitting areas to sit and read or play games as a family. Nice area outside to play in the snow and practice our Texas style sledding. It truly was the best trip to Colorado we’ve had and we go every year. Thanks Thompson lodge!

Beautiful, peaceful, Wonderful

We thoroughly enjoyed our 7 nights. Close enough to town, but far enough to enjoy the quiet. Beautiful peaceful surroundings, quality interior, fully equipped kitchen, most comfortable bed ever, great communications with property mgrs. complete information provided beforehand. Would definitely stay here again. Oh and we had a moose and deer visit us twice and those were the the times we saw them. Also bring in your hummingbird feeders at night or a little bandit raccoon will kindly tip them as he stands on the rail and drink them dry lol. Thank you Thompson Lodge.

Clean and quiet with a great view

My spouse and I stayed at this lovely home for several days over Labor Day weekend to do some hiking. House was clean and well-stocked. I am severely allergic to dust mites and detergents, and did not have any problems here. We enjoyed the views of the mountains from the upstairs sitting area. House does not have air conditioning but with windows and fans, we were comfortable. The main level bedrooms stayed cooler than the upstairs master. The property is in a quiet neighborhood, but also close enough to town to get supplies. Mountain Market in Grand Lake is quite small and often crowded; we had better success at City Market in Granby. Overall, great place for us to explore the west side of RMNP and the Never Summer mountains. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
