About this house rental
Moose Ponds is an exquisite vacation home located within the town of Grand Lake with a hot tub. Guests can drive or walk to gourmet cuisine or down home cooking in local restaurants, and shopping in town is always a delight. Moose Ponds is right around the corner from both. Built in 2006, the home offers an abundance of amenities and discriminating designs, including an open, airy floor plan with cathedral ceilings - perfect for socializing. Large Decks are perfect for outdoor gatherings with family. Lots of games and a nice indoor and outdoor sound system. Seven night minimum.
After a day of mountain activities, guests can gather in front of the stone fireplace to relax in comfort. The hot tub, and the large shower with a double shower head available in the master bath, offer a peaceful respite. The home also features a gourmet kitchen perfect for preparing a meal for a large group. Guests will also enjoy a generous living room, dining area and a great room on the lower level that includes surround sound and a game area.
The home is tastefully decorated with fashionable furnishings, luxurious mattresses, beautifully appointed wood floors and ceilings, copper sinks and appealing/interesting art.
Your family and friends will make special memories during their vacation at Moose Ponds that can be remembered while relaxing on one of the two decks. The views from the decks of the two small ponds where wildlife frequently linger are spectacular.
No rental pets. However, we own a dog and occasionally bring him up. While our cleaner does an excellent job of removing all dust and dog hairs, please do not rent if anyone in your party has dog allergies.
Take just a short drive, and guests will encounter extraordinary Rocky Mountain National Park, one of the most beautiful places in the world. Featuring over 150 small lakes and 450 miles of streams, first-time visitors and local guests will be enchanted. Adam Falls, a magnificent waterfall, is also within camera range with just a 10 minutes hike.
Grand Lake is special any season. In the summer, it offers the best boating in Colorado on the state's largest natural lake, and Shadow Mountain and Lake Granby are only minutes away.
Guests may bring their own boat or rent from one of several facilities.
When the snow flies, the snowmobile trails are just steps away from the door at Moose Ponds. For a true Colorado skiing experience, Winter Park Ski Resort is an easy 40-minute drive. Ski Granby Ranch is 20 minutes away and is one of the best family resorts around.
Please enjoy your stay at Moose Ponds in beautiful Grand Lake, Colorado.
UPDATE: Moose Ponds was not affected by the October, 2020 fires.

We had a great time at Moose Ponds & Grand Lake. You can easily walk into town but still felt you were surrounded by nature. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the deck, use of fire pit &grill, washer & dryer. A great place to escape the summer heat.

This property was a wonderful place to stay for our family vacation! There were 6 adults in our group and there was plenty of room and space for all of us to enjoy being together. The home was well stocked with everything we could possibly need which we really appreciated since the has not been our experience with other properties! It was a short drive in the RMNP for our daily excursions. We loved the decks and hot tub!

This was our 3rd time at Mooseponds and we have always enjoyed our stay. The home is in a quiet, private area yet close to everything. Great floor plan and well-stocked with supplies.

Our trip was great. The house was perfect. The first night only the moose visited the lake. The location is great for entry into RM National Park. It was convenient for cursing the town of Grand Lake and some local hikes. A great time was had by all. A suggestion would be to use a good quality cotton sheet on the beds and replace the teflon pans when they get scratched.

This is an amazing property. Sitting on the gorgeous deck feels like being in a treehouse. While you can see cars going in and out of the RMNP off in the distance, it’s not annoying. Otherwise you are surrounded by trees! We loved watching the hummingbirds at the feeder.
The indoor space was perfect. The open dining, kitchen and living space was wonderful. We cooked alot and always found what we needed.
We drove into the park (don’t forget your timed entries!!) several times, went kayaking on Grand Lake and rented a pontoon boat! Absolutely be sure to check out Grand Lake Lodge! The views are amazing. You can eat at the bar which is a lot less expensive than the dinners!
Don’t hesitate to rent this property!!

Perfect Mountain Get Away
This is the perfect property to enjoy the beautiful scenery the mountains have to offer. It is nestled among the aspen and pines and even though it is very close to town, it is very private. It is less than a 5 minute drive to the entrance to RM National Park! We saw wildlife daily... moose, deer with her twin fawns and even saw a black bear across the lake! The house itself has a large kitchen with lots of space for family gatherings/places to eat. The porches upstairs and downstairs allow for space to spread out and also to enjoy being outdoors. The owner put fans in all the bedrooms to help for those warm afternoons. Overall this is the perfect get away vacation home to enjoy all the mountains have to offer.

Perfect location for visiting Rocky Mountain National Park
This home is not only beautiful but perfect for 6 to 8 people. Only minutes from Grand Lake and the park entrance. The pictures are exactly what this home has. It is well maintained and very clean and comfortable.

Incredible location - beware in winter
Beautiful personal vacation property that is utilized by the owners as well…as such the kitchen cooking items are of better quality than most VRBO/Airbnb’s. If coming in the winter/spring and snow is present, you may experience zero issues until you meet the impressive driveway without a four wheel drive or snow chains…although it’s is strongly recommended I would go further to say it is required if you actually want to park at the house…hauling grocery’s up a slippery driveway (even from the landing) is quiet challenging…all in all our family thoroughly enjoyed this property and would love to actually stay in the summer as well and enjoy the ease of access to walking everywhere in grand lake…plenty of blankets, towels, laundry detergent and fabric softener are provided as well….it’s like going to your parents vacation home….

Christmas on Moose Pond
Our family is from Fort Worth, Texas and our house was flooded in February due to Snowmageddon and we are still without a kitchen. We decided this year we wanted to celebrate with a white Christmas so we decided to come to Colorado hoping that our wish would come true. We chose Moose Pond at Grand Lake because the property could accommodate all 7 of us and it had that outdoor décor that we just love. When we arrived on December 21st the forecast was not looking too good, however, we were saying our prayers and hoping for the best. We were absolutely thrilled at how warm and inviting the house was when we walked inside. Once we settled in, we decided to take a ride into town and low and behold the small town of Grand Lake which looked like something out of a Hallmark Christmas movie. The decorations we brought with us for the Christmas tree matched perfectly to the outdoor décor of the house. Come Christmas Day when the kids awoke early that morning what did our wondering eyes see? The most beautiful white Christmas…the kind you always dream of as a child hoping that Santa will bring you that special toy. Our prayers had been answered! What made it all so amazing was the magic of Moose Pond. Thank you Jerry for opening up your home to us and making our dream come true!

Perfect Location
Everything was better than expected (if that's possible). The quality of furnishings and kitchen ware was premium. We could walk into town easily & the short hike up the road behind the house had a view that may have been better than the one at the Grand Lake Lodge. We also enjoyed the mother moose with her young one that visited the pond a couple times. We were lucky with the weather, too!!

Moose Pond Delivered
Great house - great hosts - great location - great amenities - great time! Jerry communicated just enough to know what was up, and was available if more info was needed. The house is as depicted in the listing, and extremely comfortable. Would highly recommend and would stay again if looking for lodging on that side of RMNP.

Fantastic home and area!
We loved staying at Moosepond. It's aptly named for the moose that lives near there too. We saw him every day in the pond, and sometimes less than 30 feet from the deck! Was a treat for all of us.
The house is a quality, well-built home with lots of room and well appointed. The double decks and comfy outdoor furniture were our favorite places to be.
We were a little nervous about not having A/C, but we didn't need it. It was actually so refreshing to have the windows open, and we weren't hot. It was definitely even cool enough in August to use the hot tub.
Overall, this is a great place for a family or group. We only had 5 people in our group, but there was more than enough room with two living spaces, 4 bedrooms, and those awesome double decks. Jerry has thought of everything to make your stay there hassle free and comfortable!

Hillside Hideaway
Beautiful home surrounded by trees and overlooking the pond. Great wildlife viewing from balconies. Moose & deer sightings multiple times! Comfortably furnished throughout. Easy access to RMNP and all of Grand Lake activities. Our kids and grandkids enjoyed it as much as we did! Thank you, Jerry & Ann, for sharing it!

Great Property, Great Host!
Excellent communication from the owner and the house was exactly what we expected. Location is right at the west entrance of RMNP. Downtown Grand Lake is charming. The hot tub is a highlight of the property! Owner provided everything we needed and more -- made our CO vacation an A+ experience!

Exactly what we needed
This was exactly what we were looking for. Amazing property, unbelievable location and perfect time! The owner was incredibly responsive and was most helpful during our stay. The home is exactly as started. We had our four boys and they had a blast. We went horse back riding, went to the hot sulphur springs and hiked at Rocky Mountain national park! Grand Lake is such a great little community...the market, restaurants and locals were amazing! We will definitely be back! Thanks Jerry for all your help and kindness!

Great experience
Had an amazing time. We had never been to Colorado and we felt we seen so much. The cabin is a perfect distance to anything we needed and wanted. Hot tub temperature was not working properly during our stay so we were not able to use it. However, we would definitely stay here again. Two thumbs way up!

Beautiful home, responsive owner
We stayed at the Grand Lake property during the East Troublesome fire. Prior to the stay, Jerry was extremely communicative and helpful figuring out what to do as a family with two young kids. We arrived to an absolutely clean and beautiful home and enjoyed several days relaxing and hiking around. It is so close to everything - the lake, the park and local attractions. During the stay, he was extremely communicative with any questions we had. We ultimately needed to evacuate the property during the fires. He immediately called, texted and left voicemails once he received communication. We could not check out properly due to the urgency of the evacuation - he was extremely helpful through the process, expressed concerns for us before the property, and fully refunded us for the days we were unable to stay. The house itself is beautiful and such a peaceful place that allowed two people that have a hard time unplugging from work to relax. The owner was absolutely fantastic to work with. 5 stars all around!!

Moose Ponds
Good location - an easy walk to Grand Lake for those who aren't bothered by a hill or two. Neighboring houses are far enough away to give the house an almost remote feeling. Jerry was very accommodating and helped get us through a somewhat confusing and frustrating Vrbo booking process. The bedroom with the two twin beds needs a chest of drawers.

Beautiful Place!
Our family of 8 had a great time, celebrating so much this year! So much room for all of us, comfy beds, fun games and puzzles. Enjoyed seeing all the wildlife in the yard, one morning 10 deer! No moose, maybe will see them next time! So much wild life in RMNP we went 3 days in a row, at dusk. It was everything we hoped for. Thank you for sharing your home. We all had the best time!

House on the Hill
Wonderful home and location. Perfect size for our family of five. Kids loved hanging out in basement and hot tub. We had the best weather also. The location of home is so close to everything. From lakes, to shopping, to driving to Rocky Mountain National. Owners have great communication via vrbo and great info when you arrive at the house.
Highly recommend this home.

Great time
This property is so close to everything. One minute from rmnp one minute from town one minute from the lake. This house was beautiful and the views were wonderful. We saw a bunch of wildlife in the morning. No moose this time, hopefully the next time we stay. Beds were super comfortable and the extra things like body wash and shampoo were a nice touch. Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook with and the kids loved the hot tub.

Cabin, Absolutely Amazing !!!
First, Thanks to Mr. Gerard and his wife Mrs. Ann for deciding to rent to us their Beautiful Cabin!!! Thanks for putting up the Christmas tree for us and decorating! This beautiful cabin was super clean and had everything From A to Z. Super easy checking in process. Excellent communication. Cabin close to everything, skiing, sledding, snow tubing, Rocky Mtn National Park, etc. Also, cabin is close to the Grand Lake Town but secluded location. We more than loved this place ❤. We enjoyed coffee mornings next to the fireplace while looking through the window snowing. Enjoyed the Hot Tub every night, playing games, sledding by the cabin... Very nice views. Lot of snow. Cabin has 2 beautiful patios. Sitting outside and drinking hot chocolate was really nice. Everything was PERFECT and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED PLACE!!! We give this Beautiful Cabin 5+++ ☆☆☆☆☆

Fulfilled all of our winter wonderland fantasies!
My family thoroughly enjoyed themselves at Gerald’s beautiful home nestled in Grand Lake. Gerald was quick to respond to all of our questions, the home was spotless, had all the amenities we wanted (fully stocked kitchen utensils, fireplace, hot tub), and even included some we didn’t expect (such as shampoo, body wash, and plastic sleds!). Being situated within minutes of the Rocky Mountain national park allowed for us to soak in the breathtaking views while hiking Adam’s Falls (definitely one of the highlights of our trip). When we craved a little more sociability, the town was just a short drive away and had all of the quaint charm that one could ask for. We definitely plan on coming back! We want to thank the Healyey family again for helping to make our winter wonderland fantasies come true!

Light fixture in mechanical room needs repair along with tub drain in hallway bathroom needs to be looked at. Coffee maker leaks, needs to be replaced. Water pressure for showers was great.
