Our family of 9 stayed at this house and it is a wonderful home. We especially liked sitting out on the deck. The windows are beautiful. Everything was perfect!

Wonderful house. Great location for visiting Rocky Mountain National Park. Several Moose walked right by the house. Loved the town

Overall very nice for our family from out of state attending a family wedding in Grand Lake. Downstairs bedroom was a little dusty and could use some new pillows, but everything else worked out great.

Beautiful, inviting home made a great home base for our family to come back together in Grand Lake Colorado. Walking around the lake daily and even catching a few moose and deer grazing was spectacular. Close enough to town yet quiet and remote feeling location. Having laundry facilities centrally located in the house helped. Our 2-year old grand daughter loved napping in the loft. Would love to return some day possibly in the winter as well! Thank you for your hospitality!

Excellent location for wildlife & scenic viewing! We saw several moose & enjoyed the overlook towards Lake Columbine. Short & easy drive into the downtown of Grand Lake which was also enjoyable. Well accommodated our 3 generation family of 11 with multiple bedrooms and living areas and even an expandable dining table to seat us all. The photos provided an accurate depiction. A full library of books and videos throughout the house. Only lack was no cupboard/pantry space for unrefrigerated food. Grand Mountain Rentals was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. Special thanks to Calise!

We rented this cabin for 2 families. Plenty of sleeping space & bathrooms. Beds were super comfy. Kitchen was well equipped. Beautiful neighborhood. Very clean & nice!!

This is our second time staying at this property in the summer. We find it very quiet and relaxing and enjoy seeing the moose, deer and fox around Columbine Lake. When we want a change if oace we go to downtown Grand Lake and explore the shops and activities.

GREAT WEATHER, GREAT HOUSE AND LOTS OF WILDLIFE

Lake Retreat lived up to previous reviews. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well-stocked. The fireplace was the perfect touch for cool June mornings and evenings. Wildlife abounded, both at RMNP and the house...we even saw a moose in the backyard one early morning.

We rented this unit and another one for a 4-day family reunion. Everything was as advertised. It is a great location and the unit was immaculate and very well appointed with all of the furnishings, appliances, and utensils necessary. The representatives of the management company were quite helpful and friendly. The check-in process was very quick and informative. This is our third rental through Grand Mountain Rentals, and I would highly recommend them.

Great house and location. Rental check in agent was great.

We so enjoyed our stay! Everything this place was so comfortable, homey, perfect! I would suggest this place to everyone!

We had a great time and Lake Retreat was once again perfect for our family.

Spent 3 wonderful relaxing days in this lovely cabin. Relaxing on the deck watching the hummingbirds and enjoying the view. Walked across the road to enjoy the beautiful lake. Saw a bull moose walk right across the street from the cabin. Amazing. The home was perfect for our group of 7. Some nice lounge chairs on a deck would be a great addition as the chairs got a little uncomfortable. It was a great relaxing getaway. Highly recommend staying here.

Excellent home with spacious rooms with great views. Kitchen is unsurpassed with every piece of equipment one could ever need, and several sets of beautiful dishes. We plan to return soon with good friends.

This house was amazing! There was plenty of room for my family of 11. The loft with the 4 twin beds was perfect for our children. There was even a baby gate to block the top of the stairs off. The house was well stocked with soaps and toilet paper, paper towels, just about everything we needed was already there. The house was clean and had plenty of linens. The managers at Grand Mountain Rentals were very friendly and informative. We had a wonderful time and I can't wait to go back next year!

Enjoyed being a guest in this house for a long weekend with our family. The view was fantastic. The house was in great condition. Disappointed that we weren't allowed to use the on-site amenities, (the private lake and pool house), but otherwise loved the property and we would definitely stay here again.

The home was perfect! So well appointed and couldn't have suited us better. It was in great shape, clean and felt very homey. Not a single complaint.

3 Couples stayed at the Lake Retreat for four nights, five days over the 4th of July weekend. Very nice cabin with pretty views. Moose, fox and deer in the back yard. Everything works fine although carpets need cleaning. I would have also liked to see shampoo in the bath since I left mine at home.

It was beautiful and cozy home! My family loved staying there!

We had a large family stay in two rental homes. This home was among one of was perfect! A nice, quiet, gorgeous accommodation with the correct number of bedrooms, bed, and space for our Thanksgiving celebration! Thanks for allowing us to stay! It was wonderful!

Quiet private community on beautiful Columbine Lake. Close to RMNP and quaint town of Grand Lake.

Very comfortable, close to RMNP and Grand Lake

Home was absolutely beautiful. Kitchen is well stocked. Home was clean and ready when we arrived. We arrived earlier than expected. We also had to leave at 3 am to catch our flights home. They were very accommodating. We walked around the lake every evening to see the moose and fox. Grand lake is a wonderful town. Loved Sloopy's for quick lunches. The only thing missing was a fire pit to sit by in the evenings.

Our rental experience was outstanding. This is the third or fourth year in a row that we have spent part of the Christmas and New year's holiday at the Lake Retreat. It has become a family tradition for us at this point. The Lake Retreat itself is a wonderful cabin that is laid out in such a way that everyone has plenty of private space. At the same time the family / dining / kitchen area is big enough that our whole family can gather and enjoy meals, movies or ballgames at not feel crowded. The home is beautifully decorated and is set in a beautify setting. Most importantly, when you walk into the Lake Retreat it feels like the home wraps its arms around you and welcomes you back home.
The folks at Grand Mountain Rentals are also always great to deal with. They are always friendly, easy to deal with very accommodating. They make the whole rental experience very enjoyable.
We look forward to coming back to the Lake Retreat again next year.

We enjoyed the home very much, it has the best stocked kitchen we have found. Location was wonderful for the snowmobile trails, although it is very tight to get a pickup and trailer pulled off the street. Grandkids loved the loft area, it was very cozy and homey. Loved all the local pictures that the owner had taken and displayed. Only complaint is that the ceiling fan in the main area is very dirty, we did not feel we could have it running.....everything else very clean and inviting. Would recommend the area and this home.

Manager's Response

We enjoy the serenity of being by the lake and the opportunity for walking among the trees and taking in moose sightings.

The house was well equipped. Some suggestions would be to label the light switches. The king size bed was not comfortable and in our opinion needs a new mattress. Our backs hurt each morning when we got up.

Manager's Response

We stayed for 5 awesome nights at Lake Retreat. We have 3 kids and our friends who came too have one kid. It was perfect as we stayed in the basement bedroom, the other couple in one of the main level bedrooms and all four kids stayed up in the loft on the trundle beds. It was perfect. Well furnished, everything you could need.

A great retreat in a quiet area.

We love Lake Retreat. It fits our families needs perfectly. This is our second year renting Lake Retreat after 15 years of renting other properties. This one is our only suggestion is that the 12-18 inch high weeds in the driveway be removed. This is a very superb property, however, the weeds made this property look second class.
