Our group gathers annually for a writing retreat. Family & I come in early to set-up, make sure tech works, etc., then family leaves and group arrives. We had some challenges with the wi-fi/network -- Beth was great at fielding questions/being the go-between between us and CenturyLink, patient, etc. (CenturyLink did finally come out and things were working fine by the beginning of the actual retreat.) The house itself was great for us -- we used 7 of the bedrooms, each of which had full (or large 3/4) bath, *greatly* appreciated; half of the rooms also had small tables -- wow, unexpected and also much appreciated (we ARE writers; we need tables!). Kitchen is well-designed and nicely provisioned. Didn't use the gas grill (it poured rain that evening) but it looked to be in good shape (and clean). There are 3 large common areas (1 per floor); main and top floor saw the most use from our group (air hockey -- who knew?). Location advantage: essentially across the street (street = Hwy 34) from Shadow Mtn Lake and a marina; several of our group brought kayaks and played in the water. Several others drove the few miles to the RMNP visitors center and walked the trail next to the center. All tucked into Grand Lake to see the community exhibit re: East Troublesome Fire and to poke around town a bit. Debriefing after the retreat: the only thing they'd wish for is better soundproofing between the main floor bedroom and the downstairs bedrooms, a house *on* the lakeshore (possibly in the lake, depending on who you ask {haha}) and trails that lead directly from the house -- but this house was as close to that fantasy as I've ever seen, with great layout, good privacy between rooms, decent views, and the combination of quiet plus good spaces for talking that make for an excellent retreat setting. (At a good price point, too!)
