My husband and I first fell in love with Grand Lake when our friends offered us their rustic cabin for our honeymoon in September 2010. We've been coming up every spring, fall or winter to enjoy different parts of Grand County ever since.
We truly enjoy the beauty of the national park, the lakes and the mountains, the wonderful and caring community, the laid back outdoor lifestyle, and the peace and quiet.
We find great pleasure in having nothing to do but to read a book or to enjoy each other's company sitting by the fire, cooking meals, playing cards, or working on puzzles together.
We knew we found the right place when on the day of our closing, we had an impromptu sleep-over with old friends and their kids. It didn't matter that the place was a little dusty from being vacant and our new beds hadn't arrived yet. We had clean sheets, plenty of fresh pillows and blankets for everyone and great company. The kids played with sticks in the yard for hours, while the adults made dinner, caught up with each other and shared stories.
We filled the cabin with laughter all night, went on a big hike the next day, and made great memories in just 24 hours.
That is exactly what the cabin is for!
