Will is extremely responsive to tenants’ concerns and needs. Due to Mr. Kaufman’s impeccable attention to detail and service, our property has been consistently rented.

Grand Escapes has been an wonderful full service management company for our cabin located in Grand Lake, CO. Having a management company for our rental property has made the process of renting much more comfortable. We can trust that the property is being looked after. They have simplified the business side of renting for us; everywhere from bookings, ensuring renters are happy, and facilitating the cleanings needed between rentals. From being super hesitant about renting our home away from home they have made this process great. I would recommend Grand Escapes to make your rental dreams a reality!
