Promising Review: I knew it was going to be small, but I’m one person – and it’s all I needed. With the amount of space, Konstantin did a beautiful job making it feel open and homey. It would even be great for couples, as I think it’s plenty of sufficient space for two people. It is the cutest little airbnb!! Thoughtful touches, the cutest decor, GREAT location (walking distance to downtown Grand Lake and the lake itself), and the communication and hospitality was excellent. Loved the shower, the bed was comfy, and everything looked like it had been very thoroughly cleaned – Very impressed and made for a warm welcome. Highly recommend and I will definitely be staying there again next time I’m in Grand Lake!
