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. Donât 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 âkids nookâ. 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 townâs signature events like the 4th of July Extravaganza or Grand Lake Regatta Week; or even kick off your fall leaf-peeping adventure.
