4BR cabin directly on Shadow Mountain Lake with a boat dock

The cabin is located directly on Shadow Mountain Lake. It has 1800 ft2 with 4 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, 2 car garage, and one boat dock. It has excellent lake view and mountain view from inside of cabin, on the large deck, and on the boat dock. All bedrooms have great lake views and have either queen bed or king bed. All bedrooms are about the same size. High speed internet is provided. The cabin was remodeled recently with new LVP floor, new countertops, and new kitchen appliances. A grill is provided with propane tank. Washer and dryer are provided. Five kayaks and one canoe are available (included in the rental price) for guests to use in summer season. There are five hard shell kayaks (for single person) and one canoe (for three persons). The cabin is 2 miles from the center of Grand Lake Village where you can dine out, go to the theater, or shop along the boardwalk! The cabin is 3 miles from Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP). You can find many hiking trails inside and outside of RMNP. A few important points:
• This is a private residential area, no parties or events allowed.
• The waterfront and boat dock areas are not supervised by lifeguard. Weather can change suddenly. Take water safety precautions and supervise children at all times.
• When you use kayaks and/or canoe for adults and children, please use life vests and practice water safety.
• If you bring your own boats, you can park your boats on the boat dock. The long side of the boat dock is 31', the short side is 21', and the width between the two sides is about 7' (please see photos for the layout of the dock). You need to launch your boat from a public boat launching site at the south end of Shadow Mountain Lake.

Perfect place for a family vacation
We chose this place for the location on the lake and we were not disappointed! The views are wonderful from almost all windows and the lake was quiet this time of year. And, the private dock was the BEST! We spent a lot of time down by the water and made good use of the kayaks and canoes. It was perfect having everything right there + having it all to ourselves. Comfort-wise, this home has everything we needed and was spotless when we arrived. We would absolutely choose to stay here again!

Fun time enjoying the lake
We will definitely stay again! Beautiful lake views and direct access to the lake and large dock. We spent our days using the kayaks (thank you for allowing us to use them) and evenings enjoying the town of Grand Lake. The place had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.

Grand lake
We had a great time! We are kayakers so the ease of getting in and out of the kayaks was great even for beginners. The steps at 1st appeared daunting for some old members of our party, but they soon were looking at the exercise as a good thing! The rooms were comfortable and gave us lots of room to spread out. Tom was very helpful and responded to our questions quickly. Suggestions: Garage door opener- it was extra step-up leave the house running back and forth, all info sent via email should also be in the notebook for ease access and longer tie offs for the kayaks. We had some pretty good wind events in the late afternoon. I checked on the kayaks 2 -3 times in the evening "just to make sure."

All of the pictures are true to the eye! What you see is what you get and it is as close to perfect as you can get. We had the privilege of staying at this property for the 4th of July week. The view was amazing and the fireworks were brilliant! This vacation will be hard to beat.

This is our go to Grand Lake property and it just got a whole lot better
We have been coming to this property for several years now and the recent major upgrades the owner did made this place even more desirable for the family to have a wonderful lake vacation. The price is a lot cheaper (relatively speaking) than the nearby on-water properties. We love the toys that come with the house. It’s more spacious than you think and the oversized deck is to die for. Just can’t get enough of the views. Tom is super responsive and friendly. We will for sure keep renting here.

Unforgetable experience!
When choosing the rental my main priority was the view....and boy did this rental deliver! The cabin sits on Shadow Mountain Lake and provides view of the lake and surrounding mountains. The location is about 5 mins form the quaint village of Grand Lake that offers shopping and dining. The drive over Trail Ridge Road to Estes is much longer, but we knew that when booking and made for very scenic drive when we made our way to Estes Park. The cabin was clean and had plenty of room for my family to spread out when needed. There are over 50 stairs to get to the doc from the deck (and back up…) so let that be know. But I would absolutely book this cabin again if I had the opportunity!

What a great house and location. We have never been to Grand Lake so we didnt really know what to expect. But it was one of our best vacations as a family. The house was perfect. Beautiful scenery and a big lake to fish in with kayaks. Kids loved fishing, hiking and being on the lake. House was perfect and we had no issues. What a relaxing perfect get away. Definitely be back!

Grand Lake Granby Ski Trip 2023
This home is wonderful, The views of the lake & mountainside are spectacular. The jacuzzi tub was amazing after a long day of travel & skiing. A couple things that was a surprise was, 1. Not being allowed to have a fire in the fireplace in the middle of the snow covered Rocky Mountains. 2. The microwave is located very low in the cabinet below the range, which made warming our chili & stew we made for our week a little inconvenient. 3. We are from the south and love to cook a big breakfast every morning…. The cookware was impossible to cook anything in without it sticking, even sausage, especially eggs, hash browns. Over all, we loved the home, and where it’s located. If you plan to eat out while visiting, you will enjoy this home. We were very much looking forward to having a fire at night, (the temps outside were from -5 to 25 while we were there.) It was not until we were given the check-in information, that we were told No Fire in the fire place. The home was clean, and comfortable, just a couple small improvements to make this an 11 out of 10!

Enjoyable relaxing stay!
Our stay was a wonderful relaxing getaway. We used the kayaks and the canoe. Spent many hour on the deck admiring the beautiful view. Definitely got our exercise on the stairs. Close proximity to town where we wandered and of course enjoyed ice cream. The ONLY complaint We had … the bathrooms could use some deeper cleaning.

This was a very nice property. We especially liked sitting on the deck next to the lake. It was a very nice feature to have boats to go for lake excursions! There is some highway noise at the upper deck but it is not super distracting. It was perfect for our family get together.

Granby Family 2023
Three generations stayed 6 days in Tom’s wonderfully private cabin. Because of the forest of aspen, pine and birches around, both on deck and down at dock, our granddaughter said it was our own secluded retreat. Tom needs update website photos because they did not do justice to the comfort and available spaces to either be with or without the family. There are 95 steps down to dock. I’m on oxygen at night and went down at least once each day, but immediately was on my O2 when back in cabin. Quickly rebounded and felt good even though 3,000 feet higher in altitude than Denver. Loved visiting Grand Lake Town and the busy beach area with a million things going on at once. Population of Grand Lake year round is around 300 and we loved helping support their economy. Tom was great communicator and that is sometimes number one. We’d return again and again.

Great View and very relaxing
The property location is awesome, great view of the lake and very peaceful with the hummingbirds coming around. Very comfortable sleeping areas for me and my friends. A few broken things in the house when we arrived and we were unaware that things like that would be broken. Great access to the kayaking and canoe as instructed, and we did catch a 13-in German brown off the dock in the evening. So that was great. We would probably go back, but instead of putting a sign on things that are broken just fix them next time. Thank you!

Excellent Property and Location
Our family stayed here for 3 nights. Great home for families with amazing views. It may have been in the listing but perhaps we missed it. This home is about 40 feet off the highway. You can't hear the sounds of the vehicles from inside the home unless you have the bedroom windows open (which in the summer you probably will). This isn't a huge deal, just something to know. Also, while there is lake access, there are litterally 95 steps to get down to the water. Again, not a huge issue unless you have elderly folks in your party, which we did. The waterfront access is great. Fun spot to fish (we even caught one trout). Very responsive host - we would suggest anyone staying here.
