Ragland Cabin

The Cabin is very cozy and beautiful, we had an amazing
time spending outdoors and indoors. Everything was as described about the location & cabin, it was very clean & the service was excellent! Would recommend this cabin & location to everyone. We loved snow tubbing and visited different parks near by to go sledding with out kids. The torch parade was amazing we so loved going to that. Overall we had an amazing time & Thank you for making our stay special and comfortable.

This cabin was a perfect place to stay while we spent our trip exploring RMNP. The cabin was clean, cute and I loved sitting on the porch looking at the stars. However, I would not consider this a 5 star stay because of the lack of amenities. I had read in the info that there are no toiletries and only 2 extra rolls of toilet paper so I came prepared, but when I got there I realized they don't even provide coffee so we had to take an extra trip to the store. Additionally, there was a bedroom window that had no curtain and it faces another cabin so that made me a little uncomfortable. Overall great cabin but I've stayed in other rentals that paid more attention to detail and it really makes a difference.

Beautiful views from the deck!

This cabin was perfect for 5 of us. It is nicely decorated and furnished, comfortable, and the location was fantastic! Just outside of town with an open lot allowing views of wildlife and the lake. We watched a red tailed hawk and elk from the deck for a half hour!
The only downside of the cabin was the management company, which I would definitely not use again thanks to their rude staff. Check in instructions via email said to stop by the in town location to ask if the property was available. When we did so at noon, we were treated rudely and asked if we had received a text or email notifying us that the house was ready. Once we did receive notification that the home was ready, check in was easy. Unfortunately the coffee maker didn't work the next morning and there were no sheets available for the pull out couch. When we visited Grand Mountain Rentals the next day to let them know of these two items, the response was surly and rude. I was told that no one had problems with the coffee maker before, so it must be my fault!! When I said that the property lists a coffee maker, so it should come with one, they told me that is the responsibility of the owner and they would contact them - really?? Just give me a temporary coffee maker - which the second woman at the desk finally did after the first had the audacity to say "you know, the cleaning staff doesn't test the coffee machines before each guest to make sure they're working". Then when I asked for sheets for the pull out couch, I was told they don't provide those because the house is supposed to sleep 5. Again, I was well aware of the rules and sleeping arrangements. I chose this house because we had 5 people - 3 adults and two children. Two adults in the master, two children in the bunk room, and one adult on the pull out couch. The staff said three people should be sleeping in the bunk room!!! Then why have a pull out bed? Loved the cabin, avoid this mgmt company though.

We had a great time in Colorado. The rental experience was easy, communication was excellent, and the house was as described.

Very nice cabin. Nicely decorated in a quiet mountain setting. Very cozy place and quite relaxing. Distant view of the lake and closeups of wildlife from the deck. We loved the layout of the cabin and spent 4 days unwinding in the area. We really liked it as a homebase to explore the area

We wanted our kids to have a cabin experience on our trip and Ragland Cabin did not disappoint. It offers a bit of rustic charm with all the modern amenities for a very comfortable stay. We enjoyed the chipmunks playing out front and soaked in the view of the lake. The proximity to Grand Lake and Rocky Mountain National Park make this a great location. We look forward to visiting again!

Great cabin and location. Our family of four enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and the wildlife nearby. The cabin was spotless and comfortable. We enjoyed the location and that Grand Lake is less busy and less full of tourists than Estes. We saw fox and elk near our cabin and enjoyed having our morning coffee on the balcony. The hosts were extremely responsive and friendly.

The Ragland Cabin was clean, quaint, and cozy and fully met our expectations. Check in and out process with Grand Mountain Rentals was easy.

We had a wonderful time at Ragland Cabin! We love the Grand Lake area and the small town feel with the Rocky Mountains as a scenic backdrop. On two different mornings as I was walking, I cam across a moose. I would recommend hiking to see the waterfalls in the area, several of which were small hikes. Great time overall and great rental.

Awesome, great cabin.

Enjoyed our stay in this cabin. Great location near RMNP. Very relaxed setting. Great kitchen.

We had a wonderful getaway. We have stayed at this property twice now and just love it. It is a true wood cabin with nice touches and very quiet and private. We hope to come back again later this year. Thank you so much!

Out of 5 stars, i rate this one 10+. This cabin may look somewhat small from the outside, but once inside it's so nice & more than roomy for a couple looking for a quiet getaway, or a family of 4 or 5. The interior is just stunning! All of the walls are cut from beetle kill pine logs & finished expertly. The furniture throughout seems to be pretty new and in excellent condition. All of the appliances are in perfect working order. No extension cords running from downstairs to the upstairs so the coffee maker will work because everything is is excellent working condition! The living room has a wood burning stove & there's also a 50+ inch widescreen TV with full cable access. The second bedroom also has a small flatscreen TV and also has cable.
This is the type of cabin that really makes it difficult for you to leave at the end of your stay. It's just so very nice here. You're only about two miles from town & less than 5 minutes from the Rocky Mountain National Park.
There was a heard of Elk just about a block away from the cabin, grazing along the side of the road.
And although this cabin is not a lake front property, you can see just enough of shadow Lake from the outside balcony to make your morning coffee or afternoon cocktails very enjoyable.
Also, when you check in at the rental office ion the town of Grand Lake, don't forget to ask all of you questions of the staff there, they are very knowledgable & are more than happy to assist you!
I know that this review seems a little over the top, so before you ask . . No, i am not affiliated with anyone connected to this rental property, i just love it this much & want to definitely go back again!

The cabin was very clean and right next to Grand Lake and RMNP. Having a fully equipped kitchen and washer and dryer was really helpful. We even had a moose walk through our backyard!

Enjoyed our stay! The cabin really fit the locale. Since we spent most of our time at Rocky Mountain National Park, it was perfectly located! The cabin was cozy, comfortable and clean. If we go back, would stay here again!

This place was perfect for our little family of four. Couldn't have asked for a better spot. Bummed that it's not open for our time next year- would have loved to stay there again, but it's obviously a popular spot! :)

My sister and I stayed 3 nights at Ragland cabin. The cabin was very clean; the beds were comfortable and the view was pretty. We saw a buck deer while we sipped wine one evening on the deck. There were cabins all around and cars passed by frequently during the day, so the place isn't really remote but we were still surrounded by trees. There is a beautiful Aspen tree, with leaves that shimmer in the breeze, right outside the cabin. We brought some movies and watched them at night on the large TV. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect cozy cabin. It was clean, great use of space, everything we needed was there, beautiful views, and space for kids to explore and play. One morning we had three deer wandering around the cabin and another morning we had a mama and young moose hanging out for a few hours. The location was ideal for exploring RMNP and the town of Grand Lake. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Great place to relax and enjoy the mountains.

everything is as described. the cabin is cozy and at great location. everything is at great condition. we were very happy about our stay. add the light at dinning area will be perfect.

We had a great stay here. Not too far from town. Good view of the lake (minus few power lines). Small patio is the best spot.
Great for older kids but not small kids due to stairs and bunk beds.
Drawbacks were lack of any spices, cooking spray etc. and having to take trash to town.
Overall a great place.

My wife and I spent a week at the Ragland cabin the first week of June and were very happy with the property. The bed was more comfortable than ours at home. The only thing I would suggest is a set of blinds on the small window of the bedroom downstairs. I hung a sheet over it to maintain privacy. I would absolutely stay here again and will suggest this location to anyone looking for some R and R in Grand Lake!!

Manager's Response

We couldn't have stayed at a better location. Everything was just perfect from its design, decor, amenities. It had everything we needed and more.
Management Calise and Ralph were absolutely wonderful and very helpful. We will definitely be returning, and would recommend GMR and the Ragland to anyone looking for a lovely, relaxing getaway.

Manager's Response

We absolutely loved our cabin and the community. We will be retuning again and hope to stay in the same cabin. A wonderful place to stay. Who knew?

Manager's Response

My family and I have rented various rentals from Grand Mountain Rentals for the past several years and the staff and rental properties are always great. My husband and I chose the Ragland Cabin for our stay this year and it was fabulous. Location was great, did see some moose across the road a few times in the morning. I can't say enough about this cabin, it was everything and more then we were looking for.

We really enjoyed our stay. Very cute & cozy cabin.
We would stay there again.

Manager's Response

The Ragland cabin is a superb mountain getaway cabin! Period! It is small-ish and, therefore, cozy and warm. The kitchen is spacious and has everything you need in it. The main bedroom is perfect minus a few blinds over the windows, which was not an issue at all. The deck is simply wonderful, especially for moon/planet/star viewing in the uncluttered darkness of the night. The wood burning stove is wonderful and really heats the upper portion of the cabin very well. There were no stove tools, however. I imagine the friendly management staff will correct that soon! We couldn't ask for more!

We had the best time st Ragland Cabin. The Cabin was perfect, clean, decorated super cute, and in a great spot. We definitely will be back.

I stayed in this cabin with my family, we are from South Texas. This place was in a great location, very quiet and peaceful. We very much enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was very clean and quaint. Definitely would love to go back someday.

This cabin is PERFECT for a mountain getaway. It provides all the amenities and comforts of a 4 star getaway.

This location was great. Very close to downtown Grand Lake. The cabin was nicely updated and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. I highly recommend staying here.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. Grand Mountain Rentals provided an easy check in process and the cabin was clean and well equipped. The only disappointment was that this cabin wasn't as secluded as portrayed. There were cabins all around it, but the lake facing second story deck was protected and provided the illusion of privacy.

All in all a nice place to stay.

We love the Ragland Cabin. It was perfect. It met all our needs. We will definitely come back.

We really enjoyed our stay in Ragland cabin! It was a nice quiet neighborhood and we saw a moose and fox one morning. It's a new or recently renovated property done in rustic cabin style, as is fitting. Appliances and furniture were nice and the deck is perfect for watching the sun come up across the mountains and lake and for watching the stars come out at night. Can't wait to come back!!

Very nice cabin. Beds were comfy. Our son enjoyed having his own space. Only recommendation I'd have is for the company to place another window covering in the bedroom. One window didn't have a curtain. We hung one of our camping sheets up over the top and made it work. Overall, very nice place to stay.

Ragland Cabin is a wonderful place to stay. Not only is it very clean but it is well decorated and very comfortable. All the furniture is not only functional but comfortable. Beds are great! The king size bed in the master bedroom was awesome! Closet space is very good.The pull out couch was comfortable too. Kitchen is well equipped. Bathroom is clean and tastefully decorated. Balcony has a partial view of the lake, a great grill and beautful view of the stars at night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Close to Grand Lake main shopping area/restaurants, trails, RMNP.

We were unfamiliar with the area and choose this cabin for the location, updates, and cleanliness. It was perfect for all 3! It was not as secluded as we hoped and was sort of in a rustic neighborhood like setting, but still quiet and clean and near all of the things we wanted to do. I would stay here again and Grand Mountain Rentals was very accommodating and helpful in getting us around the area and helpful with suggestions. We were very pleased and would love to go back soon! (Also, it's very close to the park entrance.)

The cabin was immaculate with all the amenities. It was spotless, comfortable and cozy. The setting by the lake was so relaxing and I could sit on the deck for days. By the time I left I was so relaxed it was hard to leave. I will be back ASAP!

Ragland Cabin is a beautifully appointed cabin. The owners thoughtfully decorated it with fun western art -- love the moose paintings and bench, and all of the bears, including the Bear Boat dominos! The common area is very comfortable, with a big flat-screen TV and wood stove for cozy nights in winter. The kitchen has every amenity you can think of; really liked that as I enjoy cooking. The bedrooms were also comfortable, one with a cushy king-sized bed and the other with cozy bunk beds. One of the best features of the cabin: the deck that faces Grand Lake and the mountains. A perfect spot to relax with a glass of wine after a day of play in Rocky Mountain National Park. Would definitely come back!
