Incredible WATERFRONT Cabin with HOT TUB & water toys!
Quintessential cozy A-frame cabin with 1 bedroom and additional Twin over Queen bunk bed upstairs, and 1 bathroom ON THE WATER at the south end of Shadow Mountain Lake. Brand new deck and HOT TUB installed in June 2022!! Nestled on a quiet dirt road and less than 10 minutes from downtown Grand Lake, this cabin has much to offer in all seasons. You'll be able to enjoy the stunning views of Rocky Mountain National Park to the north, and watch the Colorado River join Shadow Mountain Lake just steps from the deck. If you're feeling accomplished, try your hand at numerous trails for all levels of ability and ambition in one of the surrounding wilderness areas (Indian Peaks, Never Summer) or National Forests using our included maps and trail guides. Only 17 miles from Granby Ranch Ski Area and an additional 20 miles to the base of Winter Park Resort, you can get your runs in and return to a cozy cabin and warm up by the fire. If you're looking for a quiet place to relax, you can easily explore over 1,300 acres of surface area in one of the provided water-craft (canoe, kayak or paddle board) on the lake; or even paddle over to one of the 5 islands for a quiet picnic. Don’t forget to drop in a line and snag a mackinaw (lake trout) or a Kokanee Salmon, swimming alongside rainbow, brook, German brown and cutthroat trout. THE BEST SPOT to watch wildlife on the lake, our guests have spotted moose, bald eagles, a rare colony of White American Pelicans, Osprey, and even Bighorn Sheep. The newly refreshed and well stocked kitchen offers a great place to cook and connect with fellow travelers. In the upstairs loft you can put in a few hours of work at the desk while enjoying breathtaking views, or stay downstairs and cuddle-up by the fire while the littles enjoy the “kids nook”. Bustling in the summer, the historic town of Grand Lake also has many offerings for all seasons including historical museums, great restaurants, shopping on the boardwalk, ATV/OHV and Snowmobiling tours, breweries, snowshoeing and nordic trails. If you time your trip right, you may be able to attend one of the town’s signature events like the 4th of July Extravaganza or Grand Lake Regatta Week; or even kick off your fall leaf-peeping adventure.
The Space: The property can sleep a total of 7 people: 1 Queen in the downstairs closed-off bedroom, 1 Twin with a Queen under it as a bunk-bed in the upstairs loft, and a nice quality blow-up Queen air mattress is available with full sheets, pillows and duvet. Family friendly amenities include: pack n play with sheet, highchair, booster seat and plastic table settings. Recreation Equipment: 2-person canoe, 1-person kayak, 1 paddle board, life vests for adults (6), youth (2) and infants (2), toys and buckets, corn hole set, Adirondack chairs for adults (6) and kids (2). Additional Amenities Include: basic cooking essentials (spices, cooking oil, grill equipment), stocked kitchen (crockpot, glassware, bakeware, etc.), propane grill, family games and books, a wide offering of pillows and blankets for comfort, dishwasher and other amenities.

Exactly as advertised with all amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Was plenty close to restaurants and especially the Roadhouse” where everyone is friendly! Host was always friendly too. We will be returning
We loved our time at the cabin, it was a wonderful way to celebrate our 39th anniversary. The view of the lake is perfect, loved the foggy morning we had and the cabin is outfitted with all the comforts of home.
This is an amazing property with a huge deck, large hot tub, wood burning fireplace and on the water. Views are amazing! Close proximity to everything. Short drive to Grand Lake and 20 minute drive to Granby. I highly suggest staying here !
The cabin has amazing lake and mountain views, direct access to the water with kayaks that we enjoyed using, a well stocked kitchen and a very responsive host. We will definitely return, thanks for a wonderful weekend get away!
The cabin was clean, stocked with kayaks and a paddle board with direct access to the lake. Beautiful views, great hot tub and a working grill. We used it all. The owner was awesome and very accessible.
The cabin is right up against the lake and has a little dock with a great view - perfect for quiet evenings and mornings. There were boats available for getting on the lake though I didn't leave myself enough time to really enjoy them. The cabin itself is small but open and airy with great views of the lake and mountains beyond. There were some initial issues getting the door unlocked but the host worked with me to figure it out and the rest of the stay was amazing. It's a beautiful cabin in a great location and I can't wait to come back and do it again!
This cabin was very well equipped with everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The views from the deck are spectacular and direct access to the water made daily kayaking a joy!
Immaculately clean, adorable cabin with views that are second to none. We had everything we needed, spent a lot of time out on the deck which is spectacular. Quiet yet convenient. Just gorgeous!
We loved staying here! The views from the living room and deck are amazing and direct lake access is great. Very clean and exactly as pictured. Hoping to come back!
Exceptional cabin for a small group. 4/5 would be max. Clean, well supplied, exactly as described. My wife and I stayed a week. Snow almost everyday. Good food near by in Grand Lake. Snow mobile and skiing were as good as it gets. Hot tub was amazing. Thanks Travis. I will come back again!!!

Not what we hoped it would be :(
Unfortunately, this was not the anniversary trip we were hoping for. The cleaning crew was still there upon arrival. The furniture is pretty run down and abused. The strip at the bottom of the shower door is half off and water pours out onto the floor. The light bulb in the bathroom was burned out and we had to take a bulb from another fixture to be able to see. There was a full load of dirty dishes in the dishwasher when we got there and a firepit full of burned wood that we would've had to remove and dispose of to have a fire. There was also dog hair everywhere, which we realized was a dog-friendly cabin, but still.The lake equipment was not usable, the kayak was in mud, the canoe was full of water and one of the paddle boards was deflated. The dock area was not able to receive any watercraft as it was too low, which would've been helpful to know as this was the primary reason for booking this location. There is more, but these are the key issues. The lake view from the deck was beautiful and perfectly represented in the photos and the owners did refund us the cleaning fee. However, we booked 2 nights and left after the first night and went home, (something we have never done!) Although we tried to make the best of it, our special anniversary weekend was not. We had high hopes considering the cost of this cabin and we were disappointed. We did attempt to ask for a refund for the 2nd night and explained the issues, but were declined.
Perfect quaint cabin on Shadow Mountain Lake. Hot tub was a great added feature overlooking the lake after going out kayaking and fishing. Close to downtown Grand Lake. We ate dinner out every night, but made breakfast and lunch at the cabin each day and all the kitchen amenities we needed they had. No issues or complaints.
