Now, mind, Grand Lake's downtown is about two blocks but one block from it and down a bit of a hill is this delightful beachfront. Kids. Dogs. Kayaks. All bright with summer spirit. The water is deliciously cold.

We hiked to Adam's Falls and around Mountain Shadow lake as well as canoeing at Gand Lake and beach. Went to Rocky Mountain Park one day. Awesome restaurants for the whole family to enjoy.

Grand Lake is the beautiful water feature that inspires the town and gives the name. On the shores in the downtown district, just outside the west entrance to RMNP, there is a beach and marina where you can get down to see the lake. If you are brave enough to enter the cold water you can swim. In addition, there are boat and paddleboard rentals here for you to enjoy the lake without the cold. Again a beautiful place outside the park.

Not as grand as we had hoped-probably because the weather was cloudy, overcast and cold. The shopping was nice and views pretty.

This is such a beautiful area. The lake is so peaceful with people enjoying kayaking, boating, people relaxing on the pier, on the beach, a really lovely spot with great views and not far from the main street at all.

Beautiful little beach area. Mountain lake so it’s not the sand you’d expect at a ocean beach. The kids still had fun playing with sand toys and swimming on the shallow end. The water is very cold even in July on an 80degree day! Lots of families having picnics, paddle boarding, kayaking and pedal boating. Tons of dogs! Most are on leases unless they are swimming. I’ve never seen so many dogs on any vacation. The beach area is small and very packed on a weekend. During the week it was quieter. The public bathrooms are very clean and well maintained. The whole area is very cute and lots of fun little shops.

This lake has a very pretty sand beach, yes in the mountains. There are kayaks and paddleboats if you are concerned regarding the cool temperature of the water. Really nice, pretty and relaxing.

Loved this little hidden beach, what a great use of town tax dollars. The park is beautiful, small, clean, well maintained and provides the most incredible view!

Beautiful is an understatement. This was my second trip to Grand Lake and I am already planning my next trip. The lake was a little low but that was due to the wildfires. Water has been gathered from helicopters to drop on fires.
The scenery is amazing and the homes around the lake are incredible.
