Colorado's Coolest Ski In/Out Home - World Class Mtn. Biking, Hiking & Fishing

Granby Ranch is the perfect destination for everyone in your family. Whether you prefer to spend the day on the slopes skiing and riding, snowshoeing scenic trails, doing yoga on top of a mountain, or relaxing by our outdoor firepit, Granby Ranch is full of opportunities to make your trip unforgettable.

This one of a kind "Mountain Modern" sits atop Ski Granby Ranch. The home is ski-in ski-out in the winter and out your door to hiking and world class mountain biking. Amazing views await from every room. The house was a multi-year project designed by the previous owners in collaboration with award winning professionals. Local reclaimed materials (snow fence, corral boards, reclaimed US steel) were used throughout and complement the modern features giving the home an industrial chic feel.

There are three king bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom and walk in closet. The master has a large free standing soaking tub and a double rain shower. An additional bunk room has a custom made bunk bed and queen sleeper sofa, wonderful space for kids or one family. The main floor bathroom has a steam shower for everyone in the house to enjoy. Chef's kitchen features a Thermador® commercial 48 dual fuel range / double oven and is very well appointed (food processor, Vitamix, juicer, Cuisinart coffee maker, coffee grinder, etc.). There are three outdoor living areas, including a covered patio on the main floor with an American Eagle grill. A private deck with a fire table is located off the primary bedroom and there is a hot tub and flagstone patio on the lower level of the home.

Radiant heat floors, thoughtful lighting, and whole house Sonos sound system create a wonderful environment. Two large fireplaces add warmth and ambiance to the open living spaces. The downstairs media room has a 70' Samsung SUHD TV, a 70' gas fireplace, and a wet bar. Step outside to relax in the top-of-the-line hot tub spa and enjoy the stars and amazing views!

The oversized heated 2 car garage can accommodate large vehicles. It features a high-speed EV charging plug for electric vehicles.

Beautiful house and amazing views!
The house we stayed in was amazing and very tiny we wanted in a ski town. Amazing views. Close to ski resort. Beautiful fireplace. Really the best part of the trip was how accommodating and responsive the host was! Every time I have a question, she answered promptly and made it so easy to stay!

Christmas retreat!
My family and I booked this place with my best friend and his family and we have nothing but GLOWING things to say about this place! Literally everything was immaculate, loads of entertainment was provided at the home, huge kitchen table for gatherings and games, insane kitchen fully stocked, the hot tub was incredible with the view, the views in general of the home were to die for, the bedrooms and bathrooms were all very luxurious. Denise was very accommodating and made my dream come true of spending Christmas with all my loved ones come true! We tried to leave it better than we found it and plan to be return customers! The coolest chalet EVER.

Idyllic home for family vacation
We rented this spectacular home for a 1-week vacation to celebrate our special anniversary with our children and grandchildren. Its location in Granby Ranch was perfect, with eye-popping Mountain View’s, a community swimming pool, 3 primary bedroom suites and a bunk bed loft fit for older children. The house was equipped with kid-friendly games, 2 family rooms and ample upscale bathrooms. The home’s proximity was perfect - about 20-30 minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park, Grand Lake and Winter Park, all with fun activities for young and old. We would definitely recommend this gorgeous rental property!

We had a wonderful week at this home! The house is absolutely beautiful and wonderfully equipped... we have never stayed anywhere with so many conveniences already in the home to get us started (coffee, condiments, spices, shower soaps, etc), such a nice touch to make us feel at home! The views from this property are amazing and location to Granby Ranch is great! Be ready to shovel the drive way to get it out if you're bringing a car... something us Texans weren't prepared for! We highly recommend this property, you will love it!

Amazing stay!
The house was both beautiful and comfortable. The views were incredible. There was more than enough room for our group of six adults and three kids. The location is perfect - so many things to do. We visited RMNP, Grand Lake, and Winter Park (alpine slide) - there was even a music festival and mountain biking right in the neighborhood. Denise was fantastic to communicate with and offered us some great suggestions of things to do with the kids. We highly recommend this listing!

Hands down the best stay we have ever had!
We have rented from VRBO members over the last 10 years and can honestly say we had the best experience ever during our last stay at this property! As the property profile shows, this is the World's Coolest Ski in/Ski out property in more ways than one! While this was our first summer trip to Granby, we have stayed in many different homes and Condos over the years and none even come close to this home! Beginning with the communication, Denise (and Rick) are very responsive and hands on owners. They provide a wealth of knowledge prior to your stay and yet they leave you alone to enjoy their beautiful home! At the same time, any time we had a question, Denise was very quick to respond almost within seconds of our inquiry. The home itself is even more beautiful than the pictures show. The glass windows in the master bedroom allow for viewing of the stars at night and watching the sun rise in the AM (if you allow the blinds to be open :) The downstairs bedrooms are almost as big as spacious allowing all guests to feel they have their own 'master' bedroom. The kitchen was absolutely amazing and make cooking every meal enjoyable for the whole family! Typically we are a family who enjoys eating out on vacation but even my boys would agree, this kitchen made it more enjoyable to eat at home. We still can't get over how cool the home stayed in August in Colorado without air-conditioning. Even as the days got above 80 degrees, the house somehow was designed to stay cool with the thermostat never getting higher than 72 inside. The SONOS speakers throughout the house was a pleasant surprise! Someone could be listening to their choice of music while enjoying the hot tub downstairs, while someone else was in the master bedroom upstairs getting ready listening to their music and the two never competed. Each member of my family commented at some point during our trip that this was the greatest vacation we have ever taken as family and this was in large part due to the generosity of Denise and Rick opening their home to us. We plan to come back next year and if I have my way, we will enjoy both Winter and Summer here! Thank you, Mark

What a view, what a house!
Had high expectations for our ski house rental and we were NOT disappointed! The pictures of the house are spot on. Spectacular views from the great-room, kitchen, deck and master bedroom. Three bedrooms have attached baths, with the fourth bedroom using a separate bath. All were very clean and very nicely appointed. The kitchen was wonderful, 6 burner with built in griddle, double oven is the center piece. All the utensils, pots and pans you could use. Variety of small appliances as well. The kitchen is attached to the great room, so everyone can be involved. Large wood burning fireplace in the great room, it’s a second gas fireplace in the lower level family room. Huge smart TV in the family room as well. We loved the hot tub, very private, with room for four adults. A short walk to the end of the block brings you to a ski run. Loved the house and the communication with Denise was super fast and easy. I could not recommend this property more highly.

Beautiful property
This properly is perfect for all your Colorado adventures! It is beautiful inside as well as phenomenal views. We stayed in the summer and decided to come back for a winter experience and it was just as beautiful! Denise is a great host, great communication, and very helpful. We had everything that we needed and thoroughly enjoyed our time. We can not wait to return for more memories! With that said— If you are looking for a true ski in ski out I do not think one exists in the entire neighborhood. Home again or slot shot to Mamies way are the runs to the “ski in ski out neighborhood” however they still involve walking to most the homes. The ski out- is a walk down the street from the house to the run and the run is very flat so it is a lot of walking in skis and was not very enjoyable especially with children. Not sure if this is how it always is or just this particular time. The ski-in is a blue trail so can be difficult with new skiers and then you have to take off your skis to walk up the road to the house. I would stay here again without reservation just plan on driving to the ski lodge and enjoying the day from there which is what we ended up doing each day. Thank you Denise for an incredible week. We are already planning our next trip back!

Amazing House in Wonderful Granby Ranch!
We had an amazing week in this house in Granby Ranch! Denise could not have been any more wonderful to work with for this rental! The house was amazing. Our friends cancelled at the last minute because of illness and the uncertainty of weather, but there would have been PLENTY of room for all of us to stay there comfortably. I can't say enough about the house...I want to go on and on, but in the interest of time, let me leave it at that -- I can't say enough! And renting from Denise -- would do it again in a second!

We really enjoyed our mountain getaway house! Denise was wonderful to deal with and went the extra mile for us for our Thanksgiving holiday! Granby is a great place as it's close to winter park and other ski resorts and several towns for some restaurants… Unfortunately, there wasn't enough snow to ski in Granby, but it was very early in the season. Would recommend the stay here!

First Class!
We took our 3 daughters (17, 15, 12) on vacation with a primary focus on Rocky Mountain National Park. After exhaustive research of the area, we chose Granby due to all the location advantages and ultimately because of this fantastic home. It's cliche, but it's a masterpiece in design and function. The views are extraordinary, and the pictures don't do it justice. Arriving at this home and getting an opportunity to spend a week was unbelievable. I struggle to find beds that are comfortable on vacations. These were incredible. The kids each had their own room and bathroom to use. The hot tub was a hit and with enviable views! My wife and I appreciated the wood fireplace, fully stocked kitchen, and high-end appliances. I also want to mention the owners' Rick and Denise. They were fantastic! Denise responded within minutes to any questions and gave us several suggestions on places to eat and things to do. She was always available and willing to help! We couldn't have had a better stay! The area is ideal for everything you desire to do in Colorado! We went to RMNP, took ATV's through the mountains in Winter Park, and went to Georgetown and took the famous steam engine train through the historic gold mining areas, and even panned for gold! We will be back, and this will be the only place we’ll stay!
