About this property
Views of Grand Lake, Shadow Mountain Lake and RMNP!
Come enjoy the extraordinary beauty and warm friendliness of Grand Lake, Colorado with its abundance of Summer and Winter activities! Built in 2006, this well-appointed 2000+ sq ft home is centrally located. It is just above the very charming Grand Lake Town with its old west buildings, boarded sidewalks and friendly residents. It is adjacent to the historic Grand Lake Lodge property, which provides for a peaceful mountain retreat and open space behind the home.
From the gorgeous great room with hand-built, river rock fireplace, or spacious deck, savor the beauty of majestic Mount Baldy and sparkling views of Shadow Mountain Lake and Grand Lake! Take in the starry sky on a warm summer night while relaxing on the deck. Watch the best fireworks in the Rocky Mountains from the deck on the 4th of July or New Year’s Eve. In the winter when road snow pack allows, hop on your snowmobile right outside the door and ride into town or hook up with a trail into Rocky Mountain National Park. There are so many things to do and memories to make in Colorado’s best-kept secret!
Grand Lake Village and Grand Lake are within easy walking distance at less than one half mile away. Shadow Mountain Lake is less than one mile away. You’ll have easy access to over 100 miles of groomed snowmobile trails, enjoy the lakes, shop, and eat in town. Lake Granby is just a few miles down the road.
The West entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park is 2 miles away. There you may encounter moose, big horn sheep, or elk herds. Hike to lakes, climb peaks, or simply enjoy the views. Incredible Colorado skiing is nearby with Ski Grandby Ranch only twenty minutes away; Colorado’s playground - Winter Park Ski Resort and Mary Jane only forty minutes away; and Steamboat Ski Resort, with its legendary champagne powder is a little over an hour away!
Note: VRBO groups search results for Estes Park and Grand Lake together. This home is in Grand Lake on the West side of RMNP. Estes Park is at the East entrance of RMNP, about 50miles from Grand Lake via the famous Trail Ridge Road through the National Park. When the road is open (typically Memorial Day to Labor Day, or into October if weather allows), the drive will take about 2.5 hrs with stops for sight seeing and Park traffic. In winter, the drive between Estes Park and Grand Lake is about 150 miles and 3+ hrs as you must drive alternate (but faster) roads into the mountains (I-70 out of Denver, to Hwy 40 over Berthoud Pass to Grand County/Winter Park, to Hwy 34 and Grand Lake)
Notice: Home is monitored by a security camera that views the driveway and weather over Shadow Mountain Lake.

The home had everything we needed for a long weekend in the mountains with friends. We brought 2 infants plus kids 8 and under with and the house was a great setup for multiple families with babies who wanted them to nap etc. plus the book and games selection was great. Comfy beds, great showers and we loved the hot tub too!
This cabin was very nice. The views of Shadow Lake were beautiful. We loved the shopping in the mountain town. We also had a great time hiking Adam’s Falls. Hot tub was very clean and relaxing. The host was great to communicate with. A wonderful family vacation. Would rent this cabin again in a heart beat!!!
We had 3 couples in our 50's stay at Eagles Nest in Grand Lake. Everything was as advertised with the great view and all the amenities. Check in and out was easy and well done with a friendly and very accessible host. Place was clean and well maintained and in great location for RMNP and activities in town. We had a great trip at this VRBO rental.
We had a great stay at this beautiful home. The view from the deck is gorgeous and we spent a lot of time on it. There was plenty of room and we appreciated the hot tub after hiking!
Our family loved this property. It has gorgeous views of the lakes and mountains, and it's close to downtown Grand Lake. The property has everything you need and is very comfortable, and we especially liked the maps on the table. We look forward to staying again.
We stayed three nights and loved the home. After Hiking in RMBP what a great place to come home too. We fit perfectly, enjoyed the views, and all the amenities of the home. Super clean we just loved!! It
Our family gathered from Alabama, Utah and Kentucky for a week at this wonderful home. We had a wonderful view of the lake. The bedrooms were thoughtfully and comfortably arranged. The kitchen well equipped. We enjoy taking turns cooking most nights. The children loved playing on the beach and kayaking. The adults too. The hottub was wonderful after a day of hiking and wrangling three small children. The property was minutes away from the entrance to the park and it was easy to drive in before 9AM and after 2 PM to enjoy the wildlife and the tundra.
We stayed for the New Year’s Eve holiday with family and had a great time! The house was fully stocked with everything we needed, kitchenware, games, TV, hot tub. Everything was perfect! Thank you so much!
We had a wonderful stay in this spacious home, overlooking grand Lake. The home is large with well equipped kitchen and close to downtown Grand Lake and Grand Lake Lodge. Highly recommend this home, very comfortable and our family had a wonderful vacation. Thank you!
We had a lovely time at Eagle's Nest! The weather was wonderful and the fall foliage was absolutely gorgeous! The cabin has a fabulous view of the lake, with plenty of room for our group of seven. Thank you for opening your home!
We stayed at this property in early August and couldn't have loved it more. We were a family of 5 and were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, the living room was spacious yet
cozy. We enjoyed the hot tub after a day of hiking. But the real highlight is the deck. The view is gorgeous and we enjoyed meals outside overlooking the lake. Thanks Vandy we loved our stay!
The property and location was very good overall. A little difficult for the grandkids to explore outside i.e. not much of a front yard. But close enough to RMNF to get out and have fun.
Wow. Wow. Wow. I can’t say enough of how absolutely amazing our stay was in this home! The snowy Christmas views are to die for! The house was clean, the pots and pans were newer and clean, the size of the house was perfect for our 7 adults, the hot tub felt great, we even got to sit in the deck on a sunny 17 degree day with our coffee and enjoy the views!!!! The communication with the owner was prompt and clear. Such an easy drive to the shops/restaurants on the “strip” and man- it was like out of a movie- such quaint little shops with friendly owners! We rented an ice fishing guide to fish right on grand lake, super easy 5 min drive from this house. We also rented snowmobiles and rode in RMNP. You will not regret renting this amazing home! (Oh!- if you go in the winter and there’s snow- you better have 4 wheel drive to get up the steep hill or you probably won’t make it. We had a 4 wheel drive and had no problems but we took it slow). I would definitely come here again!!
We loved the layout of the home. It was very well equipped. Towels and linens were fine. The pantry was quite complete.Apparently we(10) stayed longer than average and we ran out of space for trash. Not sure if the hot tub was always cloudy but we’re not used to that. Unfortunately there were flies in the window in the primary bedroom that came back to life in the heat.The hummingbird feeder was awesome entertainment! Sometimes there were 6 or 7 birds there at one time! We loved the porch and had many meals at the table. The homeowner responded quickly to any questions or issues. We recommend this home without hesitation. We had a wonderful family gathering!
Terrific home, well appointed, terrific floor plan and a spectacular outdoor deck for coffee, dinner or cocktails. Terrific view of the lakes and fireworks.
Really enjoyed our stay ... in particular sitting on the deck and looking out over the lake. Beds were very comfortable and linens were clean and nice. We rented a pontoon boat and spend an afternoon touring around the lake. We spotted a moose and baby in the water just off the island located in the lake. The gates were nice to close off the deck for the dogs so they could be outside with us too.
