This vacation rental in Colorado is sure to satisfy your inner adventurer! You'll be placed conveniently by some incredible nearby attractions where you can relish in the best winter wonderland spots such as Granby Ranch where you can slide down the snowy slopes of the mountain, so be sure to bring your ski gear. Point Park is placed perfectly within driving distance where you and your family can set out on a lovely stroll by Grand Lake and enjoy the sound of the waves crashing on the shore and the sight of the snowcapped mountains overhead.
Once you've experienced all the gorgeous hotspots of the town, head on back to your home away from home and bask in the spaciousness of your own private living area, complete with comfortable furnishings, a door that leads to the outside patio, a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a dining table for you and your friends to gather around for a couple of late-night games of poker with good drinks and even better company. Step out onto the balcony right outside your living space and gaze out into the gorgeous treeline with a cup of hot coffee, then come in and warm up by the wood stove and huddle beside it covered in a blanket. Go for a refreshing soak in the hot tub on the east side of the house, which is nestled in a small Aspen grove overlooking Shadow Mountain Lake. Turn in for the night and head upstairs, put on your pajamas, and slip under the covers for a good night's rest.

Very nice cabin and very cozy and clean, a house opposite covers the view of the lake and that is not seen in the photos of the cabin description. The host never answered me, we could not access the wifi of the house and no one could help me, they offered me a late check out and when I asked they could not give it to me either, although they themselves offered it to me, the cabin has no curtains if there are beautiful views but at night it is inevitable not to feel observed since with the lights everything is seen.
We loved the property. Very comfortable. Excellent appliances, common space, deck, views, hot tub.

Enjoyed our time at the Golden Moose
We enjoyed our trip to Grand Lake and our stay at the Golden Moose. The location was great for walking into town to eat, shop and play mini golf. My son loved the hot tub and used it every day. We would stay there again.

Cabin Stay
Great time, the cabin was perfect! The cabin is located on a quiet hill and easy access to town.
Super updated cozy house. We loved the beautiful back deck with a fire pit and hot tub, nugget cushions for the kids, beautiful view, and the overall space. Will stay here again next year.

The Golden Moose Chalet was exactly as seen in the pictures. It was so comfortable and cute inside. We loved the feeling of seclusion while being minutes away from town.

A Perfect Getaway: Unforgettable Cabin Stay in Grand Lake
I recently stayed at The Golden Moose Chalet in Grand Lake and had a truly wonderful experience. The chalet exceeded my expectations in every way. The location was perfect—peaceful, scenic, and just a short distance from the heart of Grand Lake and the surrounding natural beauty.
Every detail, from the comfortable beds to the inviting décor, contributed to a relaxing and memorable stay. The hosts provided clear communication and made sure everything was perfect for my visit.
I highly recommend The Golden Moose Chalet to anyone looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating getaway in Grand Lake. I can’t wait to return

Great!
Super updated cozy house, loved the amenities. Beautiful back deck with a propane fire pit and hot tub. Will stay here again next year.
Perfect place for a couple and their little dog! Very clean and neatly kept! It was well stocked unlike other homes we’ve had stayed in. We really enjoyed our stay in beautiful Grand Lake!
The place looked recently renovated and it was very well put together. They did a really good job.
The balcony was better than what we expected: big, comfortable and with great views.
My girlfriends and I stayed here for two nights in June. It was inviting, clean, and had plenty of room for all six of us. We thoroughly enjoyed the sunshine on the deck and relaxing in the hot tub. We would absolutely recommend and return!

Loved our stay!
This was our family's first Grand Lake trip and it was so fun! The house was so clean and pretty inside. The location of the house was great. Walking distance to a market for food and walking distance to mini golf and downtown. The deck was nice to relax on at the end of the day and the fire pit was perfect for making smores. Overall, we were really happy with the house and will stay there again when we go back to Grand Lakw!
Another couple and ourselves stayed at this cabin while in Grand Lake for a wedding. The cabin is newly remodeled, has a great kitchen and living room for hanging out. The bathroom is great and has a nice shower. Located on the end of town, so easily walkable to Main Street. The beds were a 12/10 on the comfort level which was a big surprise. Highly recommend.

Great Place
Very nice home, close to the lake and had plenty of furniture on the deck for our use. Has everything you need and love that it’s pet friendly! It gets a little stuffy during the day because there’s no AC but they have plenty of fans for your use to cool it down a little bit. Would recommend to anyone wanting to go during the winter or spring/ fall time.

Wonderful rental!
This home was wonderful! Perfect for kids and pets. Had a grassy area for our dog. Very spacious on the inside and private. Was able to enjoy the hot tub with a view of the mountains. Home is well maintained and clean. It is remodeled and a perfect get away.
Our kids loved the loft and the details that are up there available for them (nugget couch).
This house had everything you could need, all while being close to town!
The property matched its description and is located at the entrance to the town Grand Lake.There is a hot tub on the side of the house, but the property doesn’t supply any pool towels. And, for all the properties we’ve rented across the country this is the first that didn’t provide laundry detergent. I don’t recall whether this is noted in the description but we had to make a store run. There is a fair amount of bugs in and around the property and the landscape would benefit from some cleanup. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Wish we could’ve
Wish we could’ve stayed, but road closures and severe weather for three days at the bottom of the mountain prevented us. We would’ve love to rebook and stay another time, but the on-site team was not very helpful or kind in speaking with us amidst a completely whiteout storm. Looked like a beautiful place, but we’ll look somewhere else next time.

Needs more attention to detail!
The cabin was cute and comfy but, unfortunately, not very clean. Literally everything we tried to use, from silverware, utensils, dishes, glasses, pots, pans, cutting board to towels and bed linens had leftover food, smudges, stains, etc. The little (toaster) oven was absolutely disgusting - needs to be removed/replaced immediately. One of the snow shovels was broken. The hot tub water level was very low. There was also no hair dryer in the place so we had to make a call and have one delivered. A bit disappointing overall.

Mike, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're so pleased you thought our cabin was cute and comfy! That said, we sincerely apologize for any cleanliness details that were missed. Our team would have been happy to remedy any concerns had you reported them during your visit. Your feedback was shared with the housekeeping team. Additionally, our local manager assured us that they will make sure the toaster oven and kitchen items are inspected and addressed. We appreciate you letting us know that the hair dryer was not stocked so we could deliver it during your stay and a new shovel will be provided. We enjoyed having you as our guest and hope to host you again for an exceptional getaway.
