Beautiful, clean, updated, functional, beautiful views, great location. Stayed there for a wedding - and we visited several other properties there others were staying at and this was one of the nicest. Only thing missing was an ironing board but we worked around that.

The house is very well maintained. The bed in the master was comfortable. The cookware is in excellent condition. The windows are large with nice views. There is construction next door, with a new house being built, but we were gone most of every day so it didn't affect our stay at all. I would recommend this house for couples and families. The host is very responsive to any questions. We also stayed here a few years ago and we would definitely return.

Perfect house for our vacation!

Just a few minutes away from Grandby Ranch. Everything was nice (the views, shower, beds, kitchen, grill, garage, cell service, television). Would love to stay there again. Very clean also.

Everything we could possibly need

This may be the best VRBO we’ve rented yet. Everything about this place was top notch - gorgeous views, super clean, high quality furnishings, everything you could possibly need for a fun stay in Granby Ranch. We were there with our kiddos for some skiing, and we’ll be back for the summer fun too!

A lovely and well appointed house

A lovely and well appointed house. My cousins and I stayed here while in Granby for a family wedding. The house was immaculate, well appointed, nicely located, and met all of our needs. In addition to comfortable bedrooms, the house is filled with boardgames and an assortment of books.

Relaxing Cabin

The property is first class. Very nice, and very clean. The owner was easy to work with and we had no issues. It is a nice relaxing cabin near the Granby Ski area. My wife enjoyed her birthday celebration and we will keep it on the list for future visits.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay and cannot recommend this home highly enough. From the very beginning, Barb and Don’s communication was exceptional clear, thoughtful, and incredibly welcoming. Every detail was well organized, which made our arrival and stay completely stress-free and allowed us to focus on enjoying our ski trip and time together as a family.The home itself truly felt like a home away from home. It was spotless, well maintained, and beautifully cared for, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The views were simply incredible waking up and winding down with that scenery alone made the trip special.Beyond the home, the location is a huge bonus. Shopping and essentials are just 5–6 minutes away, which made things very convenient. The nearby community center with a heated pool and fitness center was an unexpected perk and a great way to relax after time on the slopes.If that weren’t enough, the overall atmosphere of the area made the stay feel both peaceful and connected—perfect for a family getaway that still feels cozy and familiar.There’s no doubt we will be back. We would wholeheartedly recommend this property to any family looking for a memorable ski trip or a comfortable, welcoming escape that truly makes you feel at home.

Beautiful Mountain View

This house was simply perfect. Has plenty of space inside and outside. The views were amazing and the neighbors aren’t to close, that’s always something my family looks for. I was quite surprised that not only was the house very well stocked with kitchen utensils and cookware but the pantry was also stocked with a variety of seasonings. I would definitely recommend to anyone planning a trip to this area.

Perfect Rocky Mountain House

Four of us stayed a week in this home. We all loved it. The house was very clean, and the kitchen well stocked with nice pots and pans (not all scratched up!), dishes and flatware. There was plenty of space. The front porch was perfect for early morning coffee. Just about every window had a nice view of the mountains or aspens. The master shower was fantastic. There were many thoughtful touches in the house, like moisturizer at every sink, and night lights in the bathrooms and the kitchen. Barbara and Don were very quick to respond to questions, and were very helpful with local information (like Oktoberfest!). There was construction in the neighborhood, but there was never any noise inside the house. And the house next door was completed while we were there. We highly recommend this home and will stay here again when we are traveling with a group.
