Davis Cabin, Historic Charmer
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
One of the last original homes on Grand Lake, this historic beauty has roots dating back to the 1890s. With five bedrooms, spacious living areas, and a gorgeous outdoor space, this home awaits your next friend getaway or family lake stay.
Outside, enjoy sweeping Grand Lake views from the brand-new deck with ample seating, or from the private dock. Cast your line and catch your dinner, or simply sit and enjoy the sweet blooms surrounding the outdoor seating area. When you're ready to explore the area, you're located just a short walk away from multiple restaurants, the local theater, shops, playgrounds, and downtown's boardwalk.
Inside, rustic charm oozes from every room. The kitchen is well-equipped for home-cooked meals and the colorful dining table is ready to host family-style feasts. After you've indulged in a delicious meal, cozy up in front of the living room's wood-burning fireplace. There's cable and a Chromecast for the TV, and you can also connect to the stereo and listen to your favorite playlists.
Each of the five bedrooms has been comfortably decorated with plush linens and warm wood finishes. The primary bedroom boasts its own en suite soaking tub. Additional interior amenities include a private washer/dryer, internet access, and the convenience of electric baseboard heat.

We have visited this home before and enjoy its location, history and eclectic decor. However, we found no kitchen towels and were provided with bath towels. We asked to come in early but most of the cleaning crew arrived at 3:40 p.m. and left at 4:20 p.m. We had hoped to perhaps get into the property a little earlier. The barbeque was not working and could be a fire issue. A firefighter is part of our family and we discontinued use of the grill and reported it to the management company. We suggest more eating steaks knives as only two were found. Again, we always enjoy this cabin and hope you take our suggestions as helpful. Thank you so much.

The home is charming, the location on the lake was gorgeous and town is right out the backdoor. The four bedrooms were perfect for each couple to have their own space and the bonus bunk room for the kids was great. While the bunk room was rustic, it was cozy, comfortable, and was nice and dark/quiet so the kids even slept in!! Sharing one shower wasn't as hard as we thought it might be. The shower was very nice and water pressure was great! It is clear that the cabin is old, but everything that needed to be "newer" was updated, while still retaining the original "cabin-y" charm. We adored this charm and made lots of family memories! We enjoyed dinners on the patio and lots of time swimming and kayaking in the lake. The homeowners provided lots of amenities in the house: well stocked kitchen, great bedding, lots of extra blankets, beach towels, plenty of bath towels, the list goes on! We spent a lot of time making use of the lake and enjoyed fishing from the dock, but there is no ladder to access the water and it is very hard to climb out onto the dock without one. You have to scramble up rocks or have lots of upper body strength to haul yourself in and out of a kayak/paddleboard to the dock. Our only major issue was with Vacasa and the local support. We reached out for support and received no help with the outdoor trashcans being full when we arrived, which resulted in us having to store our trash indoors.

We love this huge cabin! Great eclectic & rustic decor makes it so interesting. You can’t beat the location just a block from town on foot and a huge deck perfect lake access! Great for multi-generation family gatherings! We love it!

This home was perfect for our family grouping of six adults, a five year old and three under 18 months. We never felt cramped or crowded. The extra oven and refrigerator came in handy. We couldn't ask for a better location. Very close to downtown and an easy walk to Point Park. We loved the roof top deck on the boathouse. Having a dock made using our paddle board so convenient.

This cabin is a treasure. We plan to return every year to enjoy quality family time on the lake.

We loved the uniqueness of this place. The deck overlooking the lake is spectacular. Our young adults loved the bunk bed room. It was like summer camp. We would love to stay again.

Davis cabin never disappoints! We have stayed here 2 other times and truly is a gem! If you like nostalgia and don’t need a fancy place, this is it. You can truly relax...with views from the boat house deck or right from the back patio. 2 min walk to town too!

Reviewer Comments:
We've rented cabins at Grand Lake before, however, none could match the views from this cabin. The fact that it had a boat dock made our vacation time even more perfect, as we only had to load and unload our boat once during our stay. We could walk into town to find a restaurant or ice cream shop, or just to shop. The beds and bedding were comfortable and it's nice and quiet, despite its close proximity to town. The only negative is that we did not have any extra toilet paper and there was little on the rolls to begin with and we only had one dishwashing soap pod for our four day stay. We went into Grand Mountain Rentals and they apologized and supplied us with enough for the rest of our stay. We all had a wonderful time and would rent this cabin again.

We enjoyed our stay at Grand Lake in the Davis Cabin very much. It was enough room for 6 adults and 4 kids all under 3. The pictures did not allude to the fact your neighbors were right by you, but everyone still had plenty of privacy. The cabin itself was very nice and cozy. The only issue we had, was after renting other timeshares or houses on other trips, we expected there to be more included. We only got 3 trash bags, 1/2 a roll of papertowels and the toilet paper on the rolls. There was no extra, which usually is included. 3 families could not do with that little. And there was just one towel for each bed with no extra in cabinets. We requested more and were given some of each items, but it would be nice to know how much of that is included at time of rental rather than when you get there. All in all we had a great time, the property was nice and the experience great!!! We plan on staying in Grand Lake again!.
