GRAND COLORADO ON PEAK 8

Letter from the General Manager

December 17 is right around the corner and we have been full speed ahead getting ready for a much anticipated opening day! In preparation, we have been hiring, training, and getting the property ready for guests. We are thrilled to announce the following staff have been hired to help create Grand vacation experiences:

Kevan Beall, Grand Colorado on Peak 8 Assistant General Manager
Rebecca Doster, Lead Activities Coordinator
Julianna Nopson, Front Desk Supervisor
Reeta Echevarria, Front Desk Supervisor

We expect everyone is excited to have their first stay at Grand Colorado and take advantage of its amazing location. We do want to remind you that while the property will be open, there will also be construction taking place. We anticipate construction hours to be from around 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. We want to set proper expectations of what you will encounter while on the property but are also doing everything in our power to assure that this construction causes as little interruption to your vacation as possible. If you have any concerns or comments about this, please comment below or email me directly.

Speaking of construction, I am sure that by now you have all heard about the new addition to the Grand Colorado on Peak 8. If you haven’t, we will be adding a third building to the property. This will include an additional 52 two-bedroom units, more aquatic facilities, a coffee shop, an ice-skating rink and an enclosed pedestrian bridge that connects to the main building. This addition will not impact the ratio of amenities to guests but will allow more owners to enjoy the luxury of Grand Colorado.

We know the anticipation of opening day is growing, and we can’t wait to welcome you to your new mountain home!

General Manager, Grand Colorado on Peak 8
