Enjoyed location, house, and the veiw is incredible. Large house everything you need. We have been to this area many times and this is my favorite house.
Doug and his family's cabin is very cozy, tucked up in the mountains with a stunning view of Grand Lake! The kitchen was well appointed, with all of the cooking and food prep items you'd need for a large group. The deck has tons of seating and the home feels incredibly spacious and airy. Would be a great stay year round, but we loved being close to town and the lake during our stay!
Our group of six thoroughly enjoyed the spacious home. It was very comfortable and had all of the amenities we needed to make our stay perfect. We explored Grand Lake and got the full Rocky Mountain experience!
Took some friends and family for a long weekend in Grand Lake. This property is absolutely beautiful, in a perfect locations, and you can't beat the view. Will definitely book again!
This has such a great view of Grand Lake and Shadow Mountain! Lots of chairs!
The inside was great with a loft for the kids to watch tv and a neat bunk room.
2 very nice big bathrooms too!
This property was updated and beautiful. Incredible views. Easy access to downtown Grand Lake. Plenty of space. I would definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
Very comfortable for our family of 7 people. Loved the quiet location.
The location and view of cabin was amazing! The cabin was decorated very nice, and had games to keep the kids busy however, it seemed a bit dusty. The blinds were very very dusty.
The property was just as advertised. The deck was amazing! The beds were a little uncomfortable and we would recommend new mattresses. Kitchen was VERY well stocked. We had a wonderful weekend!
Overall, very nice. Good location. Quality house with a number of nice features. Quiet and warm, nice audio system with plenty of room.
Would like to see a hot tub on the property and to have the deck shoveled off so it would be usable with a outdoor fire.

Beautiful cabin. We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Views were amazing. Short drive to the cute little town of Grand Lake and Rocky Mountain National Park. We had everything we needed. The deck is a great place to enjoy the scenery and relax.

We absolutely loved our stay. The house is stunning and is well located close to the National Park entrance and to Grand Lake town. Beautiful view of the lake. The house was perfect with views from every room. We had a Moose family visiting one afternoon. We highly recommend it!
The property far exceeded our expectations. It was very nice and very clean. The views of the lake were beautiful and relaxing. We had two families with 9 total people. There was plenty of space and sleeping area. Our kids didn’t want to leave. The process for check-in and check-out were both easy, and the property manager was great to work with! For those that want an enjoyable and relaxing time in beautiful Grand Lake, I would strongly suggest this property!

Our stay at Hilltop Lodge was great. We had a small issue with the water, called Grand Mountain Rentals, and someone came to check it out quickly. The house has a great deck space with a beautiful view and the interior provides room to spread out. It's proximity to Grand Lake and Rocky Mountain National Park is ideal.
My group and I were looking for a place where we could safely celebrate our bride-to-be. The Lakeview Lodge was a perfect accommodation for us! There were several common areas that were able to sit the 9 of us comfortably and the kitchen was perfect for making our family style meals.
A word of warning: if you are traveling during the winter or wet months you absolutely will need to have a 4wheel drive vehicle. Our stay was during a very warm March weekend following a nice snow and we were greeted with lots of slush and later ice.

Excellent views from this wonderful home on Shadow Mountain Lake. The large deck is perfect for lounging while on vacation. My only complaint would be that we would have preferred not to have to go to the office for check-in and check-out as most other properties seem to operate off an on-site lockbox system these days.

The house was exactly as shown in the photos. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking ware. Grande Lake is a nice peaceful town that is very close to the park entrance. The view from the deck, wonderful. It was definitely a great stay, lovey house and the folks managing the property great. I’d definitely recommend it
Beautiful house with a great location and incredible views. The space was perfect for 6 adults and 3 kids. We thoroughly enjoyed the deck with its amazing views and gas fire pit. Super close to town, rmnp and golf course. We had a great time here but would like you to consider a contactless checkin and additional amenties such as showering products and tissues. We were give 2 sets af mini shower products for our entire group and zero kleenex. We also think that with the cleaning fee trash could be picked up by cleaners.

We celebrated my husband's retirement with a surprise trip to Grand Lake. It was a great time! The house is beautiful with wonderful views. Loads of activities near by and some fun shopping down in town. There are several gathering places in the home, with the living room right together with the kitchen. Super bowl was enhanced by the Big television there. We hope to go there again sometime!
