About this property

Exclusive Family Luxury Mountaintop Lodge on 43 acres

BYERS PEAK LODGE

Byers Peak Lodge sits atop a rocky, wooded ridge on 43 acres, adjoining 1300 acres of open space, just 4 miles east of Granby, Colorado. This magnificent, 5 bedroom, 7 bath, 5000 square foot, custom log home is a masterpiece of Colorado mountain architecture. Completed in 2002, the Lodge provides numerous amenities.

Custom rock fireplaces grace the great room on the main level and the entertainment room on the lower walkout level. The fireplace in the great room features two 6000-pound, lichen-encrusted boulders taken from a cliff on the property. One of these massive boulders is a natural replica of Byers Peak, the 12800 ft. , snow-capped peak oriented directly in the center of the Lodge’s panoramic great room windows. The Lodge’s unobstructed views are unparalleled in Grand County.

The dining area is designed for gatherings of friends and family, with a wide, family-style table and adjoining bar and stools. The kitchen features a refrigerator, two conventional ovens, a microwave, a vented cooking range, two dishwashers, and two disposals. For outdoor cooking with a view, the Lodge offers a deluxe, stainless steel, gas grill, located on the main-level deck, which wraps around 3 sides of the home. Or, for those not inclined to cook, restaurants in every price range are abundant in Granby, Winter Park, and Grand Lake.

Each of the five bedrooms features handcrafted, natural aspen log beds. Adjoining bathrooms offer jacuzzi tubs; separate, seated showers with handrails; sink and toilet. Also in each suite or adjoining hall we have washers and dryers (4 sets total) for your after ski laundry necessities.

The entertainment room, quietly isolated on the bottom walkout level, provides the latest in home theater technology. A ceiling-mounted projector and movie screen provide the ultimate movie-watching experience. Guests can choose from a variety of videocassettes and DVDs, while relaxing on reclining leather sofas, loveseats, and beanbags. We also have Dish satellite.

We are a non-smoking, no animal home, due to the allergies of family members and many of our guests.

We regret that we are no longer able to host events at Byers Peak Lodge that include day guests who are not actually staying at the lodge. A few unfortunate past experiences prompted this decision out of respect for the peace and privacy of our neighbors.

Spring break 2024
Great trip! Beautiful cabin! AMAZING views! The kids and adults alike had fun sledding on the hill out front and building snow forts. The weather was even perfect for grilling off the back deck. It was wonderful having bathrooms and washer/dryers for each bedroom and even better having plenty of hot water when several of the bathrooms or machines were being used at one time. We did encounter the mice but they didn’t bother our group. Would definitely stay here again.

Spectacular Lodge in Granby
Our family had a wonderful time in the Byer’s Peak Lodge. Absolutely beautiful home with plenty of space both inside and out for everyone to enjoy. Comfortable accommodations in each of the rooms; the beds were cozy and the jetted tubs were so relaxing after a long day on the slopes. The individual washers and dryers made keeping things organized easy. The kitchen and dining room were spacious and offered us the opportunity to all sit and enjoy meals together as a group. Our family loved the game room and all the space to wander outside and explore; we had a great time sledding right in front of the lodge. The fireplace is impressive and the decorated Christmas tree gave our stay that special Colorado magic. So many memories made! Truly a special home. Thank you to our host.

Beautiful Property, Beautiful Area
We had a great stay at Byers Peak Lodge for a weekend running retreat. We're a group of 12 men, and the home offered plenty of space, plenty of beds, plenty of views, and plenty of bathrooms. The home is gorgeous, with a sprawling deck overlooking a valley and stunning stone fireplace to complement the logs throughout. The kitchen has everything you need. We'd love to go back.

Fantastic Trip
Byers Peak Lodge is simply breathtaking!! Our daughter was married in Granby and this lodge was perfect for our family as it was located above the venue. Our family thoroughly enjoyed this well equipped and beautifully decorated home during our trip. The attention to detail given to us left no questions and Nila was extremely easy to work with. I would highly recommend this lodge to any group traveling to the Granby area!!

About the host

Hosted by Nila Watterson

Host profile image
We (Russ and Nila) have been married for 53 years. We have lived in Colorado for 49 years. We have 5 children and 17 grandchildren who love to get together and play, laugh, and eat at the lodge.

Why they chose this property

We have loved and owned property in the area since 1985, and purchased the property on which the lodge sits in 1990. We have enjoyed ownership in over 1800 acres, including and adjoining the current site. We chose this site because of its unparalleled view at the end of Rocky Ridge.

What makes this property unique

Russ did all of the original design and architectural sketches, which were faithfully incorporated into the final house plans. The massive great room fireplace is constructed entirely of rock gathered from the property. The great room floor to ceiling windows allow a panoramic vista from elevation of nearly 9,000' of beautiful Byers Peak and in the Lower foreground some 5 miles away, Granby Ranch Ski Resort and Golf Course
