The property itself was lovely. The check in was not. Map didn’t download on computer and the one on the app was inaccurate and not detailed enough. Using map program to find address worked on only one of two map programs. I contacted the owner 3 times for directions and he never did get back to me. We had to drive around looking for a house that looked like the picture. Then the key would only open one of the 2 deadbolts on the front door. We finally got in through a totally unsecured door. Main front door required a key (not provided) outside and inside, so it remained permanently locked. Finally we did discover that the key opened the back door. This all should have been explained. I also messaged through the vrbo app, and no one there got back to me either. Only one key for a property likely to accommodate multiple families is inadequate; we were constantly afraid of getting locked out. Between owner and vrbo office never getting back to me, for all they know we may have never gotten in the house. If these problems can be fixed, it would be a wonderful and comfortable location.

Our family truly enjoyed our week at the Griggs’ cottage. The location on the YMCA property can’t be beat. We were able to hike from the cabin into Rocky Mountain National Park and enjoy the many activities at the Y including an indoor swimming pool, the incredible arts and craft center and tons of kids programs. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of space for our group which included three kids and six adults. Highly recommended for families looking for a rustic getaway in the mountains!

Great cabin for a family vacation!

We love staying here. Been back many times. Love the location and the property.

Needed a/c. One shower door broken at arrival. Sent photos. Toilet float rusted and came off. Returned key to box as instructed. All out by 10 am. Much family fun. Best cause on Y grounds and all did projects. Will rent again. Thank you.

This is a lovely property with a beautiful setting, plenty of space and all amenities you need. We stayed with my extended family of 6 adults and 2 kids and it was perfect. The home is spacious, clean and set in nature. The kitchen is stocked and there are games and puzzles for the kids. The only downside was the WiFi did not work at all our week despite efforts by the owner to help us troubleshoot. Only a minor issue as we could walk a bit down the hill and get WiFi from the YMCA. You may also have poor cell service. Overall lovely and we would return.

Love this place! Easy to get to, quiet and relaxing. Close to park entrance, groceries and downtown. Perfect for the group that stayed there. Everyone was happy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is such a special place. The wrap around porch to view the mountains, the hummingbirds and wild turkeys make it so relaxing. The Cottage accommodates so many people comfortably. You feel like family when you stay. My all time favorite place to stay. And what a fabulous location. Did I mention the fireplace with ample firewood at the ready, gas grill, picnic table, puzzles, toys, huge dinning table and so beautiful. This is a well loved place with lots of history.

Staying at Griggs Cottage was a delight! The setting, location, and home checked the boxes for us. The cottage is rich with family history, and is obviously a treasured part of that history. Staying there makes one feel as if they’ve been invited to be a part of something special. We will return!

The house is a classic camp home. Unfortunately, that means the beds are also old and somewhat uncomfortable for older persons.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the beautiful Griggs Cottage. The views were excellent, the evening fireplace fires were cozy, and the cabin was very comfortably furnished. The historical aspects of the cabin and all the old photographs by Mr. Griggs that were on the walls were very interesting and enjoyable.
