I highly recommend Patty's home for your next Colorado trip. Set right on Grand Lake, the views from the house are stunning. It feels like you're looking at a painting. The house itself was spotless and so comfy. Not only were the beds and couches great, but the kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need. Check it out before you go shopping, as you probably only need to buy the food you want to cook. The 4 of us had hot water for every shower and the washer and dryer looked brand new. Stream whatever you want from either tv, cook on the grill, enjoy the fire pit, fish from the dock, take a boat out or just relax with a cocktail on the pergola. This house really had it all.
We traveled into Rocky Mountain National Park multiple times. The Grand Lake entrance is about 10 minutes away. There was never a line to enter, unlike the busier Estes Park entrance. Plenty of good hiking on the west side. And the town of Grand Lake is very charming. There are good restaurants and some cute shops. The local market has all the basics, but you may want to travel to Granby for your big shop.
Patty was very communicative and a great host. She welcomes you into her home and gives you all the information you need. If you decide to book, please check out the home's website she provides. It tells you the history of the home and makes you feel like you're part of the family.
I really can't recommend this home highly enough. All my friends agreed that it was just perfect. Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in such a beautiful home in such an awe-inspiring location.
