About this house rental
Relax and enjoy your stay at a newly built Colorado mountain log cabin! The Whistling Moose 5BR / 3BA log cabin located above Shadow Mountain Reservoir, just 5 miles from the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park and close to the Town of Grand Lake. Rocky Mountain National Park offers miles of trails for all hiking abilities, incredible fishing and abundant wildlife. The Town of Grand Lake offers shopping, dining and entertainment activities. There are many boating and fishing opportunities on Grand Lake, Shadow Mountain Reservoir and Lake Granby, all within a 1 to 5 mile drive from the cabin!
Built in 2024, this fully furnished mountain lodge offers all modern amenities coupled with the comfort of a custom log home in a secluded mountain setting. Relax on the spacious back deck and take in the views ranging from the Never Summer mountain range in Rocky Mountain National Park to the Gore Range to the south. Listen to the burble of the Colorado river, as it winds through the valley below. Grab a cup of coffee and watch the sunrise from the front deck, overlooking shadow mountain reservoir and the Town of Grand Lake. Moose, deer, fox and other wildlife are often seen wandering through the area. Take in the stars on a clear night while you sit on the deck listening to the headwaters of the Colorado River below.
For the adventurous soul or the weekend warrior, activities abound! In the summer, there is world class fishing, hiking, 4 wheeling, site seeing, boating and many other water sports. Practice your swing at one of the 5 pro golf courses in the Grand Lake area. Check out the boat rental and other water activities at the Trail Ridge Marina, just about a half mile from the cabin! Bring your paddle boards or kayaks and enjoy the serenity of the islands on Shadow Mountain Reservoir. Winter in Grand Lake means snow sports. Enjoy miles of trails from the cabin or adventure in to Rocky Mountain National Park; snowshoeing, cross country skiing and snowmobiling options are endless! If you prefer downhill skiing, a short drive to Granby Ranch (19 miles) or Winter Park / Mary Jane (34 miles) will give you an incredible day on the slopes!
Whistling Moose Lodge has 5 bedrooms / 3 bathrooms, open loft area, well equipped kitchen, dining space for 16, and an inviting great room with a rock fireplace, vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling windows. The garden level has 2 bedrooms: one spacious bedroom with a king size bed, and a bunk room with 2 bunk beds sleeping 4-5. The main floor has the master bedroom with a king bed and the upper level has 2 bedrooms, both with queen size beds, and a loft area. Plenty of room for a large family reunion or other special event!
Come enjoy the beauty of the Colorado Rocky Mountains at the Whistling Moose Lodge while making memories to last a lifetime.

Fabulous week (50th anniversary trip) with all 22 in our family at an AMAZING log home! Hosts are amazing to share it! The view from ANY door or window, proximity to charming Grand Lake, RMNP, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, ATV rentals, was super! Sitting out on the beautifully furnished deck was so enjoyable. Everything furnished…just add people!

Our first words say it all. We could not believe how wonderful the house is. It has been beautifully built and the amenities available were top notch. As an example, we placed the ingredients of four coolers varying in size within the refrigerator and it all fit.
We were a party of nine, five being teen boys. They loved their space downstairs and the rest of us were glad that we had plenty of space to move around without being in each others way.
Sadly to say, the only sad part was not seeing a moose. We saw deer, hawks, other small critters and the hummingbirds, though.
I will recommend this "cabin" to all that I know.

Communication with host was fabulous from start of process through our departure. Home was perfectly suited (and THEN some!) for our family of 12. Host is incredibly unselfish with their top of quality mountain log cabin. Can hardly believe they’d be open to sharing it! So much beauty and SO much to do all around you! Thank you, Joel & Trish, for helping make our family time so lovely and memorable!

We really enjoyed our stay in this recently built log home. Great views, clean, modern amenities, comfortable furniture and plenty of space for all! Love the location of the game table upstairs, the plentiful deck seating, large grill and the quiet neighborhood as well! We will most certainly consider staying here again! Love it!

This log cabin is not a cabin. It is a stunning log home. We rented it for our son’s wedding and filled it with family.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about this home. First, it’s a spectacular use of logs. From the beautiful decks and amazing views to the large, well stocked kitchen, bathrooms and laundry, everything was first rate. It was roomy and comfortable, the interior beautifully decorated and tasteful, country western chic.
There was plenty of room for parking, with the two car garage and two driveways. We had 4 cars and there was plenty of room for more. We had no trouble getting in, the hosts were wonderful, everything was immaculate and ready for guests. The long country style dining table and great room with the huge leather sectional and leather chairs provided plenty of seating options.
The bedrooms were appointed with ceiling fans upstairs and tv’s, comfortable log beds and beautiful bedding in every bedroom. The bathrooms were like everything else, gorgeous tile, double sinks, fully stocked.
We really appreciated the convenience of the location, 10 minutes from all things Grand Lake.
Everyone in our family as well as our friends who came to visit were in awe of this home. We feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to say there and are looking forward to going again.

This log home is a peaceful retreat that captivates from the moment you arrive. The brand new build brings rustic charm and matches perfectly with the natural surroundings. The spacious interior is built for making memories with friends and also finding quiet moments away. The wooden beams, stone fireplace, and large windows give way to breathtaking views of the river on one side and tranquil reservoir on the other. Loved the bunk room for the kiddos and easy access to Rocky Mountain National Park and Grand Lake. Whether savoring morning coffee on the deck or cozying up by the fire under a starlit sky, this idyllic retreat is perfect for families, friends, nature enthusiasts, hikers, and more. With its perfect blend of comfort and natural beauty, this log home gave us an unforgettable escape.

Stayed in this new log home--absolutely gorgeous! The location was great, close to Shadow Mountain and Grand Lakes. The deck was our go to spot in the evening overlooking the river and turning on the firepit! Many spaces to enjoy the incredible view--my favorite was the loft by the fireplace! Main suite was very comfortable and all the bedrooms were beautifully decorated and welcoming. I highly recommend this home for any size group! Thank you to the owners, you have great attention to detail!
