Dr.Carr's Cabin, brought to you by Mountain Vacation Lodging, is a truly special home. Nestled above Shadow Mountain Lake, amongst the pines, this cozy cabin provides the perfect setting for a dream vacation. This home is a log cabin, but it is not small, dark, or dingy. This cabin has the furnishings and finishes of a high end home. When it comes to furniture, decor, linens, kitchenware, and so much more, the investments made by this property's ownership are evident and numerous. This kitchen is equipped for the chef in your group. With two ovens, a coffee station, a very large fridge, top of the line cutlery, pots and pans, we know guests will be pleased. The home has 3 bedrooms, but 4 sleeping areas. Dispersed among 3 floors, each bedroom has a SmartTV. The primary bedroom suite even has a SmartTV in the bathroom! There is also an open loft overlooking the living room which includes a king sized sleeper sofa, a Twin day bed and a built-in desk, for those who need to put in a few hours of work.. There is a washer and dryer, outdoor dining, multiple decks, a gas grill, a wood burning firepit and views across lakes all the way to the alpine peaks of Rocky Mountain National Park. This home is just far enough away from town to feel secluded, yet only a few minutes drive to Shadow Mountain Lake and about 10 minutes from downtown Grand Lake and the entrance to the National Park.

Background checks may be performed, and in some areas are required by local law. Guests may be required to provide a credit card and or a refundable security/damage deposit. We will be in touch after you book to gather additional information and to email you the rental agreement, which you can sign electronically - no printer required. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us before booking.
** Amenities - Some private or shared amenities may not be available for guest use during certain periods. Some amenities, when part of a property, may close daily, seasonally, or for maintenance. As such, all amenities can not be guaranteed to be available at all times. Please advise us when or before booking if you have questions about a specific property amenity so that we can give you the most accurate information possible for your dates.
** Air Conditioning - Most mountain resort properties were not built with air conditioning. During most hours of the day and weeks of the year, AC is not needed. Summer nights are cool and fans are provided at most properties. Check the average high and low temperatures and weather forecast for your dates of travel, and look at the list of amenities to see if AC or fans are part of the rental property and look for ceiling fans in photos.
** Pets & Fees - “Pet Friendly” means Dog Friendly only. If a property is pet friendly, then a per pet, per night fee will apply. Some online booking sites, such as VRBO, do not allow us to list the maximum number of pets per property. If you are renting a pet friendly property, and will have more than one dog, please reach out prior to booking to verify if the home will allow more than one dog. Additional fees will apply for more than 1 dog.
** Group Sizes, High Occupancy Fees, & Maximum Occupancy - Some properties use a “High Occupancy Fee” to “raise the rate” for larger groups, and are thus able to list a lower nightly rate for smaller groups. Each rental agreement and associated rates are for a specific group size. Guests must enter the correct and maximum group size at the time of booking. The agreement requires a guest to confirm the group size and subsequently, to disclose any changes to the planned group size, which may result in an increase, or decrease, to the total cost, and may result in a security deposit becoming required.
** Video & Noise Monitoring - Please note that noise monitoring devices, and security cameras, do exist on the exterior of the property. Cameras are positioned to cover all entrances and exits of the home. Cameras are present to ensure the property remains secure and safe, as well as to ensure that guests are honest and upfront about their planned use of the property. If you plan to bring more people than you've indicated, more dogs than indicated, to host a party or event, or do not intend to respect neighbors or the value and quality of the property, then this is not the place for you, and you should not book the property. For normal, respectful groups, we are sorry that these statements and measures are necessary. Security cameras and noise monitoring devices are an example and demonstration that the property's owners are taking steps to ensure the home remains available for rental, and in good condition, for your benefit. Please let us know if you have any concerns.
** Cleaning Fees & Lengthy Rental Periods - The standard cleaning fee quoted as part of any booking is for the final cleaning, which is to be performed after the rental period has ended. For guests who are booking a lengthy stay of more than one week, a mid stay-cleaning fee equal to the final cleaning fee may apply for the second week, third week, and so on. If you are booking for a lengthy stay, please contact us before booking online to discuss your group, your dates, the rates, the cleaning schedule, etc.

This home is, not only, beautiful but, it's fully stocked in the kithen and baths. There was nothing that we needed to bring in order to feel at home. They have everything from a bullet blender to the correct spatula and plenty of bowls, whisks, etc. If you like to cook-this is the place. Also, the company have been so attentive in checking in with us before, during and after our stay. thank you!!!

Simply amazing property at the best location in town!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
Lovely family get together with Senior parents, and our son/daughter spouses and one grandbaby, 1 dog. Great FIND with plenty of room for 3 adult rooms/beds and toddler/dog friendly. What we loved!View was inspiring. Table that seats 6 adults. Surprisingly rare on VRBO. Plenty of room to eat together and play games, do art, etc…Kitchen is a gourmet top of the line setup. We love to cook and has everything needed at hand. The pots/pans/cookware are excellent. The eating dishes have incurred damage from VRBO usage. Several cracked/chipped plates and saucers. Night time at the firepit with family to tell stories and just be quiet. Far enough to feel like we were in the woods…yet close enough to make use of the facilities. Plenty of wood. The outdoor gorgeous firepit on the deck was not usable awaiting a part for repair. We hope to experience that next time. Beds very comfortable with lovely upscale sheets, bathroom towels fluffy. We were there in summer…easy to find and drive to. Thank you for an unforgettable memory with our family!
