Our cozy cabin is located on peaceful Columbine Lake. The Private Columbine Lake Community is centrally located a few miles between historic downtown Grand Lake and Rocky Mountain National Park.
From our deck relax and enjoy the amazing unobstructed 180-degree views of Columbine lake and Mt. Baldy as you grill out, watch the hummingbirds at the feeder or a moose, deer, and/or fox that walk by almost every day.
The main floor has a fully equipped kitchen, a table that seats 8, and 2 bar stools at the counter. The open living room has 1 couch, 2 chairs, tv, and a small wood-burning stove to warm you on the cooler mornings or at night as gaze up at the stars through the large front windows. There's also gas and electric heat and a laundry room.
The main floor has 2 bedrooms with queen-sized beds and tvs and 2 full baths (one with a bathtub). The upstairs loft has a futon and rocking chair with a door separating it from the bedroom. The upstairs bedroom has 2 queen beds, 2 twins, TV and DVD player.
Our property is very safe and family-friendly, all railings are to code, it has many games for all ages, 2 adult bikes, helmets, pack n play, toddler bed rails, high chair, booster seat, safety gates and a safe yard for kids to play. There is plenty of parking in the driveway and room for a trailer (no parking is allowed on the road).
The quaint town of Grand Lake has something for everyone with over 60 shops, restaurants, and galleries along with many festivals and firework shows. In the summer, you can enjoy the beach, swimming, rent a paddleboard, paddleboat, kayak or pontoon boat or fishing on one of the beautiful lakes, Grand Lake, Shadow Lake, or Lake Granby. You can take in a show at the renowned Rocky Mountain Repertory Theater.
The entrance to Rocky Mtn Nat'l Park and the Kawuneeche Visitor Center is only 2 miles from our cabin where you can enjoy the amazing Trail Ridge Road drive that has breathtaking views from over 12,000 feet or one of the many hiking or biking trails and wildlife sightings the park has to offer.
Columbine Lake has the Grand Lake Golf Course, Nordic Ski Center and Sledding Hill, Sly Fox Restaurant, and hiking trails.
In the winter Grand Lake the "Snowmobiling Capital of Colorado". It transforms into a winter wonderland with miles and miles of trials. You can snowmobile from our cabin to over 100 miles of groomed trails or to town to one of the many restaurants for dinner. Cross country ski, snowshoe, or take the kiddos sledding at the GL Nordic Center only 1 mile from the cabin (rental equipment available). Afterward, enjoy sipping on hot chocolate, hot toddies, or soup at the clubhouse. Icefish on one of the 3 surrounding lakes, Grand, Shadow, and Granby. Snowboard and/or downhill ski at Granby Ranch Resort or even Dog Sledding, always a unique and memorable experience.
Columbine Lake is a private, covenant - controlled community. Renters are not allowed to use the clubhouse, gazebo, horse pasture, OHVs or Columbine Lake. Please plan on using one of the three local lakes only minutes away (Grand, Granby, and Shadow Mountain) for all your lake activities.
Smoking and Pets are not allowed.
We hope you enjoy our cabin and Grand Lake as much as we do and have a wonderful stay.
Sincerely,
Jack and Heather Larson
