Grand Lincoln Log Cabin

We rented this home and its guest house for a staff retreat with 11 people. We had an amazing time waking up to the views of the glass-like lake, boating every day thanks to the convenient dock, cooking wonderful meals in the big kitchen, and lounging on the deck by the fire every night. This is a wonderful property and we would stay again.

My only suggestion is that some routine maintenance be conducted before too long. The gate to the deck fell off the hinges the first time we used it. The hinges aren't broken, just loose. The handle to the spray attachment on the bathtub is also broken so you cannot use that either, and other small issues like a toilet paper holder in the master bathroom.
Minor to be sure, but something that should be attended to quickly for guest comfort.

This beautiful lake home should be used for vacation only, and guests should not expect to work while staying here. The WiFi is very limited. You can use your phone as a hotspot, depending on your service, but that is only realistic for short periods of time. So please take that into consideration and plan for visits to the main part of town if you need daily Internet.
Overall, it was magical and I would highly recommend.

This home was absolutely gorgeous, super clean and we couldn’t have been happier. We enjoyed everything about this home, the kitchen was fully stocked and there was plenty of room for everyone. Management was extremely friendly and professional and very knowledgeable of the area. We booked a horse ride though Xplorie and it was magic. Thank you so much we will be back!

This home was immaculate in every way possible. From the view off the deck, to the kitchen to the game room, it was everything that our family of 7 needed. The management team was excellent and answered all our questions, they even stopped by with complimentary bags of ice as the ice machine had been giving them issues and was scheduled for a repair. No bother to us, we understand things happen. We really enjoyed boating on the lake and watching the sunsets from the deck. The gas fireplace outside was the cherry on top. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We will be back!

We stayed here with our whole family (mom, dad, 5 adult kiddos and a granddaughter) for Christmas and it was WONDERFUL! The cabin is beautiful!!!! The view looking out over the frozen lake with coffee every morning, sitting in the hot tub (during a gentle snowfall!) in the evenings, cooking in the kitchen that is big enough for big meals and lots of helpers, my husband and I retreating to the master on the 3rd floor to sit by our own fireplace when we needed a quiet moment....literally it was a magical Christmas that we will never forget. We had one issue with heat and it was addressed immediately. Everyone we dealt with was so kind and helpful, we will be back for sure! (Our “kids” have informed us this is now an annual event :)

Outstanding rental. We were a party of 6 and there was ample room. All the accommodations were just right. We will book this again! Hot tub fire pit and view were awesome!!

Manager's Response

In a word, WOW! This home is incredible in every way possible: on the lake; beautifully built; incredible lake views from everywhere in the house; hot tub and fire pit; stunning water feature creating your own outdoor river; private dock; I even saw a baby moose walk into the lake while I was fishing one morning..literally everything we wanted! And Kristy was awesome in helping us book and taking care of everything. 10 out of 10!

Everything was excellent, from communication to the condition of the property. We all had a great time.

My family was delighted to spend 5 days on the Grand Lake in the log cabin.
We enjoyed the amenities, landscaping, flowers and humming birds on the property. The cabin was clean and everything was in good working order.
The cabin is in the best spot to enjoy the lake and the mountains in the background.

Manager's Response

The cabin was great - clean and cozy with lots of amenities (although the dock, gas fire pit and waterfall were not available). The rental experience was also great. Kristy was very communicative and helpful. We had some weather at the end of the trip that cut our hiking short, but I can't think of a better place to spend bad weather with family. We had a great time playing pool and foosball and watching movies in front of the fire. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Manager's Response

You have to see this place to believe it! Better yet you have to stay at this place for a few days to really appreciate it. It is truly amazing!

The home was awesome. The owners very responsive to all our needs and questions. So much to do in Grand Lake. We would highly recommend renting this house and going to Grand Lake.

The house and location were absolutely beautiful. We couldnt have asked for a more wonderful cabin right on the lake. The view and waterfall were peaceful. The furnishings in the property were of great quality and we all had plenty of room to spread out. The property management staff was courteous and went above and beyond to be extremely helpful. A few upgrades they might consider would be to maintenance the log railings that were rotten and falling apart in a few areas, the outdoor tables and wooden loveseat rocker had to be thoroughly cleaned before we could use them, and there was quite an algae bloom on the pond with swarming airborne gnats. That did not ruin our overall experience. A small stock of general cooking spices would be extremely helpful as well as more bathroom amenities, otherwise we had everything we needed.

This property is better than described! The rental process was easy and Ralph even met us at the house for an easy check-in process. The access to the dock was easy which allowed for great water sports and fishing during our stay. The house has everything we needed and we would definitely choose this property again.

Manager's Response

We had the most amazing time at this fantastic property. Waking up to beautiful views, relaxing in the hot tub or by the fire pit, and trying our luck fishing off the dock kept us plenty entertained. When we felt like getting more adventurous, the cabin was close to hiking, boat rentals, as well as ATV rentals, which we took advantage of. The quick trip into town was also handy to grab a pizza or enjoy a nice dinner, when we didn't feel like cooking.We ate at the Sagebrush, highly recommended. The cabin and surrounding property was clean and well maintained with all the amenities anyone could possibly need and the outdoor waterfall was simply spectacular. We honestly couldn't ask for more in a vacation spot and hope to be back soon!

Loved the place would stay there again for sure. Only negative was the wifi...our mobile phones were faster than the wifi.

We traveled from Nebraska to enjoy an awesome vacation with friends at Grand Lake, CO. The Grand Lincoln Log Cabin is beautiful and the view of the Shadow Mountain Lake is spectacular. The property is in a great location near to town. This spacious home is very well appointed with everything you need to enjoy a relaxing getaway. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the beautiful scenery and the waterfall. The rental management was very helpful. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Over-all experience was great. Calise and Ralph were very helpful and made our stay as good as possible. As a former owner of rental properties thought the following suggestions would help. We were told the fireplace was gas, it was wood burning with no wood or starter provided, need extra towels for hot tub use, shower handle in the master needs to be tightened, should have at least 8, probably 10, chairs around the dining room table for large gatherings, personal opinion but pillows were too hard, too big and not enough of them, no lamps that you could read by in the bedrooms and living room, should have a throw blanket in the living room, no trash bags in the garage for the cans if that's what you want guests to use, the second french door going to the deck would not operate thereby making the screen door unusable thereby allowing bugs in. Realize the above is getting pretty picky but want to help for the future. Over-all, we had a great time and the cabin was awesome. Would come back again and again as long as Calise and Ralph are handling things for us.

The stay in Grand Lake at this magnificent cabin exceeded all expectations. The home itself is perfect down to every detail, and the location on Shadow Mountain Lake provides the best view in the area. Grand Mountain Rentals was the best rental agency we have dealt with in every way. They were informative and helpful and available at any time. The Grand Lake area itself is extraordinary and full of activities that fit nearly every taste. The nearby restaurants provide a great variety and the food was excellent. We look forward to returning next summer.
