VRBO Bear stayed here - 02/16/2009 When I first set eyes on this beautiful log den, I thought, “Oh yeah … this is the kind of place I could hibernate in!” When I walked inside, my thought was confirmed. From the cozy bear-themed comforter to the wood-carved bear table pedestal, I felt right at home among my friends. My favorite bear was the strong one; he was still holding up the coffee table when we departed.
It was difficult to decide which room to sleep in. All four were wonderful and accessorized beautifully, but my favorite was the bear-themed room. My friends liked the sleigh room, which inspired sweet dreams about having fun in the snow.
We chose to eat most of our meals in and the kitchen fit our plans perfectly. The new stainless steel appliances were a dream. When we weren’t dining in, we headed into nearby Grand Lake to eat and shop. The variety of stores and restaurants were amazing for such a small town! The food we had was excellent and if we had more time, we would have loved to sample all the restaurants. Imagine how fun to be able to drive the snowmobiles into town, for gas, shopping and dining!
While the comforts of the fantastic den beckoned us inside, we came to Grand Lake to play in the snow. After all, Grand Lake is known as “The Snowmobile Capital of Colorado”. We rode snowmobiles directly from our cozy log den! There were miles and miles of groomed trails to enjoy, narrow backwoods trails to skillfully maneuver, hills to climb (“Chicken” and the famous “Super Chicken”) as well as meadows full of powder for playing. Around every corner I wanted to stop to take another picture. The views were unsurpassed … God surely did some of His best work right here in the Rockies!
At the end of the day, we returned to the den to soak sore muscles in the Jacuzzi tub. Some nights we relaxed in front of the fireplace or watched a movie in the spacious family room.
This bear grrrrrreatly recommends you come to experience Mustang Lodge and the Grand Lake area for yourself!
