HOUSE DESCRIPTION
The heart of Mountain Moose Retreat is its warm and inviting main level, featuring vaulted ceiling with rustic wooden trusses, panoramic views, and elegant mountain comfort. Gather around the antique dining table, relax around the wood burning fireplace, 65-inch smart TV, or enjoy the coffee bar and wine fridge while prepping meals at the spacious kitchen island.
There are two separate outdoor areas directly off of the main level to relax and enjoy the crisp mountain air. A patio with spacious hot tub and gas grill, and an aspen-lined deck where you can relax and watch the hummingbirds visit the outdoor feeder.
After a day of mountain adventures there's no better way to unwind than slipping into the warmth of your private hot tub. Take in the expansive mountain and lake views as you relax sipping a glass of wine, share stories with loved ones, or enjoy the peace and serenity of a solo soak under the star filled Colorado sky.
The upper level of Mountain Moose Retreat has two bedrooms comfortably separated for privacy. The spacious primary bedroom has a king bed with a spectacular evergreen and aspen framed views of Grand Lake, the largest and deepest natural lake in Colorado. The primary bedroom slider door opens to a private deck with seating and surrounded by more beautiful aspen trees. The primary bedroom ensuite bathroom provides two sinks, a claw foot tub for soaking, and a separate shower with rain fall shower head.
The second bedroom on the upper level also has a king bed with ensuite bathroom. The bedroom's slider door opens to a large patio area that offers expansive views of Shadow Mountain Lake and the Continental Divide in the distance. This bedroom has a small desk situated against a large corner picture window where you can enjoy the expansive mountain and lake vistas while writing about your Grand Lake adventures.
Both bedrooms on the upper level have smart TVs, and the washer and dryer room is located off the hallway between these two bedrooms.
The lower level has a third bedroom with queen bunkbed (2 queen beds!) where you can enjoy more views and stargazing at night, if you are lucky enough to get the top bunk! This bedroom also has an ensuite bathroom.
Adjacent to the lower-level bedroom is a second living area/den with smart TV, providing a separate room for the kids or adults to enjoy as their own private sanctuary. The couch in this room also makes into a full bed.
