About this property
Pet friendly! 3 bedroom with stunning views of Shadow Mountain Lake
This home is located in Grand Lake, not Estes Park
Wake up to sweeping views of Shadow Mountain Lake and the surrounding Rocky Mountains at this peaceful ranch-style retreat just 8 minutes from the heart of Grand Lake. Tucked into a quiet mountain setting, Blue Water Ridge offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and easy access to everything Grand Lake has to offer, from boating and hiking to the shops and restaurants along historic Grand Avenue.
Step outside onto the expansive back deck, where panoramic lake and mountain views stretch out before you. It’s the perfect place to start your morning with coffee, grill dinner as the sun sets behind the peaks, or simply unwind after a day exploring Rocky Mountain National Park. Traveling with dogs? The fenced dog area makes it easy for your four-legged companions to enjoy the mountain air too.
Inside, the home’s open layout creates a warm, welcoming space for gathering. The living room features comfortable seating and a wood-burning stove, creating a cozy mountain lodge atmosphere on cool evenings. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals at home, whether you’re cooking breakfast before a day on the lake or hosting a relaxed family dinner.
The home comfortably sleeps families and groups with three thoughtfully designed bedrooms and two full bathrooms:
Primary Suite: King bed, ensuite bathroom with a jetted tub and separate standing shower
Queen Bedroom: Cozy and inviting for additional guests
Bunk Room: Perfect for kids or extra guests
A second full bathroom with a tub/shower combo and a convenient laundry area adds to the home’s comfort for longer stays.
With lake views from nearly every room, quiet surroundings, and easy access to Grand Lake’s outdoor adventures, Blue Water Ridge is an ideal home base for every season, summer boating, fall colors, winter activities, or simply relaxing in the mountains.
Come experience the slower pace, fresh mountain air, and unforgettable views that make Grand Lake so special.

We love this house in Grand Lake! It is so clean and well equipped. Great kitchen and comfortable beds. Everything is high quality. It is close to town and allows a dog, with a fenced in area. The view is absolutely beautiful of the mountains and the lake. We stayed here last year for the 4th and came back....sad there were no fireworks but we understand totally.

Thanks so much for staying with us, Karen! We are so happy that you enjoyed Blue Water Ridge and the gorgeous view. We look forward to hosting you again - Grand Mountain Rentals
The house was beautiful and perfect for our group of 7 (including kids and a dog). It was fully stocked with ALL necessities and much more. Although it is a pet friendly home, there was no pet odor. We loved the view. If you book with them, try the Sagebrush BBQ & Grill! We will be staying again!!

Hi Amanda,
Thank you so much for staying with us! We are just so glad that you had a wonderful stay and also got to enjoy the Sagebrush as well! - Grand Mountain Rentals
We absolutely loved this house! It was beautiful with amazing views of the lake and mountains! Adored the back deck with comfortable furniture. Great location! We loved the fenced in area for our dogs. The house had so many wonderful features and was so nicely decorated! A bonus was we could see the 4th of July fireworks from the deck! We’d stay here again for sure!

Thank you so much for the kind review! We're thrilled to hear you had a wonderful stay and found the home comfortable and well-equipped. We're sorry the grill wasn’t available during your visit but truly appreciate your understanding as we handled it. That issue has since been resolved! We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another great stay! Until next time, Grand Mountain Rentals
This was one of the better vacation rental homes we’ve stayed in! The house is very well appointed and comfortable and we settled right in for a long weekend. The kitchen has everything needed to easily cook meals. The living room is cozy. The beds are soft. It’s pet friendly but doesn’t smell like dogs which was awesome! It’s very close to a marina to rent boats and explore the lakes. The drive into Grand Lake Village is quick, and what a fun place to walk around! The weather was quite comfortable when we were there so the fans were sufficient for cooling. You can hear the road noise when the windows are open but we got used to it. We would definitely stay here again!

Great property. Very clean. Very comfortable and had everything we needed. Enjoyed nights on the deck overlooking the lake and mornings watching the sunrise. Would definitely stay again. Perfect location for enjoying Granby, Grand Lake and the National Park. Excellent communication. The only problem was having to leave . :)

Thank you so much for the wonderful review Sharon! We're thrilled you found the home clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for your stay. It sounds like you made the most of the deck, from peaceful sunrises to relaxing evenings overlooking the lake. We're also glad the location made it easy to explore Granby, Grand Lake, and the national park. Your kind words about our communication mean a lot, and we couldn't ask for a better compliment than wishing you didn't have to leave! We look forward to welcoming you back again. -Grand Mountain Rentals
