Great, relaxing location. Laundry facilities were not working at lemmon lodge so we had to use the ones in town.
5.0 / 5.0
We were thrilled to have the opportunity to stay in a Lemmon Lodge home with access to a private beach to launch our kayaks and paddle boards.
The home had everything we needed for a long holiday weekend. We plan to return to enjoy additional amenities like the community firepit.
The home could use new pillows for both bedrooms, and additional towels would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, AnneMarie, for everything. You are a wonderful host.

We had a great vacation in this very nice cabin. It has a spacious kitchen and eating area which was nice since my son, who owns another cabin on Grand Lake, often joined us for meals.
This location is super! - Close to town, close to the lake and beach, and close to our son's cabin.
We loved everything about this cabin except for the bedrooms.
My wife has troubles with stairs, so we chose the first floor bedroom. It was small and cramped and had a bunk bed overhead which I did't like. I understand that this is the "kids" bedroom with the adult master bedroom is upstairs, but for us that didn't work.
The description read "sleeps 7" but with only 3 beds I'm not sure how this works (the hide-a-bed was not functional)
This is a very nice cabin and I don't want to be negative, but I did have a few pet peeves during our stay -- the closets were so full of stuff we couldn't fit our clothes in, the downstairs bathroom only had 2 bath towels and no floor mat for the whole week, the kitchen had no dish towels or hot pads (I ran into town and got some and was reimbursed), both bathroom exhaust fans made a lot of noise and didn't seem to exhaust much (we left the windows open).
These were all minor things and we had a great vacation. We would consider this cabin again in the future - its a very nice, clean, modern cabin in a super location.
5.0 / 5.0
Property is in an amazing location with many amenities on private property including a sandy beach, fire pit at lake, and a horseshoe and volleyball area. Easy walk to all of towns amenities including restaurants, boat rentals, mini golf and shopping.
Cabin itself was charming with mountain themed furniture. It was immaculate and hosts responded immediately to the few questions we had.

Sometimes a little glitch in a trip tells you everything you need to know about who you're working with.
Our international trip was delayed on short notice due to passport office delays, so we decided to take a quick, 4-night trip to our favorite location...Grand Lake! We found Eagle's Nest cabin on VRBO, and even though normally we have to book a year out, it magically was available for the nights we were needing!
Upon arrival (8 hours drive) we found that the door code wasn't working. We called the owner and she answered immediately & issued a new code - we were delayed all of 2 or maybe 3 minutes. That's the kind of responsiveness I love, but rarely see in my travels!! :) This is the type of owner I like doing repeat business with.
Location was excellent, we could hear the river at night and it's an easy walk to the private beach. Also within walking distance was kayak rentals, ice cream, a fire pit for s'mores and all downtown. House was well equipped to cook and grill with options for indoor and outdoor seating.
The upstairs balcony is perfect for afternoon happy hour. The fireplace and lots of games are perfect for afternoon thunderstorms. We had everything we needed, even the extra touches that make it feel like a true vacation (paper towels, dish soap, hand soap in the bathrooms).
AND, it was clean. I do yoga so I'm reporting in from the front lines of the floor!
Cleanup exit steps were minimal which also made it feel like a real vacation. YAY! We'll be back!

We had a very nice stay at the Eagle’s Nest Cabin near the edge of Grand Lake. Nice community of cabins with playground and small private beach plus tricky point for fishing and launching a kayak or canoe if you bring one. Rooms and bathrooms were all clean and nice. Bedrooms & Bathrooms are not large but adequate. The home was fully stocked and had one den area upstairs and one downstairs, which came in handy with sleeping babies in the bedroom downstairs. Our host, Anne-Marie, was very nice about calling to be sure all was fine as we were arriving and we had a lovely stay with our two young grandsons, who did not want to leave. Grand Lake was a beautiful area of Colorado, which we had never seen and definitely plan to return. I would recommend this cabin and Grand Lake.

Perfect location
We had a lovely stay in the Eagle's Nest during our family getaway to Grand Lake. A private beach is just a short stroll away and when we wanted to go souvenir shopping or grab a bite to eat we walked right into town. Lemmon lodge community is conveniently right next to the boater's choice rental facility where we went daily to rent kayaks and SUPs.
The property had plenty of space (we appreciated two bathrooms so our tween could have her own haha) and we enjoyed the decor. The owner was extremely responsive to questions and helped quickly resolve an issue we had with the door locking mechanism. Only negatives were that the bed upstairs was really too firm for my taste and pillows pretty flat, so I did not sleep too well. Next time I'll bring my own pillow!

BOOK NOW!!! Perfect stay in Grand Lake!
My husband and I had visited Grand Lake for our anniversary several years ago and always wanted to bring our daughters to this amazing Colorado paradise. AnnieMarie was an amazing host! The cabin was the perfect place for our family of 7 ( 5 daughters ranging from 24 to 5 yrs). Plenty of space without feeling crowded. Perfect location within walking distance to everything in town as well as a secluded beach and sitting area near the lake. We thoroughly enjoyed all things Grand Lake during our stay. AnneMarie was super accommodating as our youngest daughter got extremely sick and had to be rushed to the emergency hospital 30 minutes away. She was so helpful and patient with us making sure all our needs were met for our family during the stress of her illness. Everyone is healthy and well now! We DEFINITELY will be back again to stay here as we absolutely LOVE this place - maybe one day retire here! Thank you AnneMarie and family! We are forever grateful!

Wonderful mountain lake property
My family and I absolutely loved our stay at Eagles Nest and Lemon Lodge located in grand Lake Colorado. The cabin was clean well stocked with kitchen utensils and appliances for cooking meals and perfectly located to both the lake and town. My kids enjoyed the beach and the playground as well as plenty of fishing and kayaking. We will definitely be back!

Perfect weather
The property worked pretty well for us. It was a good size for three people. Although the home could use a little TLC and maintenance, for example it needed some new lightbulbs, there were no wash cloths, no soap in the showers, and the coffee machine didn’t work. We fixed it with the help of YouTube, but guests should know it was a Keurig only machine. We had a great time hiking and kayaking, and the weather was wonderful. Thanks for sharing your home!

Another Great Trip
We rent this cabin whenever we can. Great cabin in a great location. The host is very organized. The only issue we have is that we can’t get it every year. It would be great if VRBO had a way where owners have more flexibility with recurring customers. We have been going to Lemmon Lodge for more than 30 years but every year it is a struggle to get booked. Hopefully we can come back in 2023.

Great house, great location
The house was very comfortable. It was within walking distance of Grand Lake. There was great hiking within a short drive. We were lucky that we entered Rocky Mountain National Park after the hours where a permit is required, but we weren't aware of the permitting requirements.

Great getaway
Perfect spot for a weekend getaway. Super close to town and the property itself is beautiful with great spots to relax and enjoy the lake. Anne Marie and Brian were great and very communicative. Only suggestion is that the beds could have been more comfortable.

Perfect family stay - Private beach is everything!
Wonderful cabin perfect for our family getaway. The Eagles Nest had everything we needed and Anne Marie was an excellent host who was always available and shared plenty of insight for eating and recreation. We will 100% be booking again for next year. The private beach at Lemmon Lodge is so wonderful to be able to walk to. The kids loved the playground and beach. There were plenty of chairs available to relax on. Just perfect.

Magical slice of heaven
My family returns to the Eagles Nest every summer. Our kids ask all year long...”when are we returning to Grand Lake to stay at the cabin?” They love this property so much. It truly is a special place to create and share lifelong memories. The cabin is clean and has plenty of room. We are able to comfortably stay for a week and cook meals in the kitchen. I highly recommend staying at the Eagles Nest!

Accused of damage
Well I was going to give this place a 4 star rating, but now a 2. I’m being accused of having carpets to be cleaned?! These carpets were filthy! I wouldn’t put my baby on the floors without a towel first.. it’s like they never even vacuumed. Second being accused of breaking blinds, nope not on my watch! I own a rental myself and I’m guessing the cleaners reported things that they possibly broke and blamed us so they didn’t have to pay for it.. this place you need to make sure you bring your own soaps because there are none in the bathrooms. I had maybe some men’s soap that was left behind to use. It’s unfortunate this put a soar taste in my mouth after having a nice vacation.

Thanks for an enjoyable vacation! Amazing location - enjoyed the beach, fishing, fire pit and horseshoes that were part of Lemmon Lodge, the short walk to the marina and town, as well as relaxing on the balcony and watching the moose wander around the cabins.

Family getaway at our favorite site.
Of the many properties at Lemmon Lodge we have rented over the last 30 years, this property is in the top 10%. Its location was perfect for us, and the cabin is a gem.
The property could benefit by having an on-site property manager, or at least one that's nearby, so they can respond quickly to issues that sometimes crop up. We did run into one such event and no one was available for a day or so, leaving us to deal with it on our own...certainly not a catastrophe, but a vacation inconvenience that didn't have to be.

Close to Everything That Makes Grand Lake "Grand"!
The cabin was super charming, cozy, and clean, with plenty of space for lounging and a lovely second floor patio. We couldn't believe how close it was to everything! It's literally a two minute walk to the lake beach, a two minute walk to the marina and a two minute walk into town. We were also able to walk to two different trailheads!
Just be aware that the cabin is very close to the surrounding cabins in the complex, so if your neighbors are loud... you'll hear them.
And I would suggest to the host that perhaps it would be good to have a binder in the house with basic info like how to turn on the fireplace, how to work the thermostat, etc. There was a binder full of maps and local recommendations, which was great, but the basic info would also be good to have.
Overall, this is a great spot that allows you to easily explore Grand Lake without needing to get in your car!

Great location!
Loved the location and all the things to do right there on the Lemmon Lodge property. We enjoyed the beach, playing horseshoes, fishing and the fire pit. The check-in process was frustrating in that I never received an email from the owner with the code to get into the cabin. It took almost half an hour to track down her contact info from the on site person at Lemmon Lodge who had nothing to do with this particular VRBO rental. Also, the mattress on the pull out sofabed was broken and unusable. We ran out of toilet paper on day 2, and had to go into town to buy some more. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay!
