Romantic Grand Lake Gem: 3 Mi to National Park!

Reviews

• Great area and space

  4/5

  Located close to downtown. Just what we needed for our stay. Had everything you might need for a stay. However if you want to “cook” or eat in the room just note that there is no sink other than the bathroom to wash up. Keurig coffee maker but no coffee provided. Great coffee shop within a block or so though. It was a bit noisy with other tenants only due to the thin walls? It served the purpose of a place to rest.

• Did the job

  3/5

  The stay was fine, it was affordable which is why we chose this but it wasn’t the greatest for a home base with a child. Luckily we had family staying in another cabin so we didn’t spend too much time here. There were a few things tho that I feel could’ve been improved. The fridge drove me crazy, it is on an uneven floor so the fridge wouldn’t stay closed and when we would close the fridge, the freezer would pop open. The other thing is the mattress is very thick and the sheet wouldn’t stay on. We ended up just taking it off which felt yucky. The walls are thin, I would wake up to alarm clocks in other rooms and you could hear the people in the surrounding rooms. I’m sure they could hear our fussy baby at night which made me feel bad. Not that the owners can do much about that.

  It did the job of a place to keep our stuff and sleep at night but if your planing on spending time in the cabin rather then out and about I would consider a different place to stay.

  Hi Gabriella, we appreciate your feedback and are grateful for the opportunity to host you as a guest. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  
  We so appreciate your feedback as our goal is always to provide the best experience for our guests. To that end:
  -We had our handyman check the refrigerator, and he stated that both doors did close and stay closed properly. However, we are sorry for your experience, so we took the extra step to ensure the refrigerator is properly balanced.
  -We have provided an extra thick mattress for comfort and while we have not had guests report any issues with the sheets before, we have replaced the sheets with ones that have deeper pockets to ensure this does not occur again.
  -While we have implemented measures to reduce noise, some sound may still travel between units as is typical in condominium settings.
  -To ensure that the expectations of guests are met, we do provide detailed descriptions and photos of the unit. While it is not a larger unit, we’re glad you found the unit served its purpose, and we hope you enjoyed the additional outdoor yard space the condo provides as it sits right next to the rapids, as well as the beauty of Grand Lake and Rocky Mountain National Park just blocks away.
  
  Thanks again, and we hope that you keep us in mind for your future travels!

• Cute, quaint Grand Lake Place

  4/5

  This little condo on the 2nd floor (of 3) is okay for two people whom are spending most of their stay outdoors. It is quite dark inside the unit, maybe some lights were burnt out. No utensils or plates provided, so hard to use micro and fridge. That would be a great addition, a long with more than 1 roll of thin TP for a 5 day stay. Minor things, overall a nice stay. Sitting by the water out back is nice. Can walk to town. 5 min drive to RMNP- make reservations.

  This was a good place to stay overall. Love the closeness to town and the fact it was the North Inlet creek. We will be back

  We wish there was another Heating element in thebathroom area. It took a while to heat this area.Also, they should have taken out the wall, betweenthe bathroom lav, and the old laundry section, remove the old washer plumbing, and made it a larger area for the sink. Not much room, the way it is now.

  From the owners: "Hi Tim, we appreciate your feedback as we are always looking for ways to ensure our guests have the best possible experience. While we understand that the studio unit had a smaller sink area than you would have preferred we wanted to share the following:
  - We do our best to show the space and layout of the property in the listing photos. We also state the square foot on the listing so guests are aware of the size before booking.
  - Additionally, there are certain zoning and HOA issues that make removing the wall prohibitive at this time.
  - Fortunately, other guests have shared that the large size of the room itself, which contains comfortable lounging chairs for relaxing and viewing television as well as a small dining room set, has far exceeded their expectations.
  We have worked hard to prepare the unit for our guests and always appreciate input. We look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests!"
