The oldest structure on the property, this cabin was built to serve fisherman coming to the high country to catch cut throat trout at the headwaters of the Colorado river. It was built in 1908 when the town was known as Easton.
Grandmas Cabin is a celebratory place that hosts holiday feasts throughout the year. In the summer it can be home to former cabinites that come home to enjoy the cool mountain weather. At any time you might find a band rehearsing for the summer solstice party, a gathering of cabinites for Thanksgiving dinner, or wayward wanderer sleeping in the back room.
This was also the home of Grandma herself. In the back room she would hire a helper who would start the fire in the morning and start her coffee or tea. Today it is a museum of her life and those who came later. It is a place that visitors find themselves getting lost in another time and experience.
Today, Grandma's Cabins is the place that the broader Grand County community comes to get their food when they sign up to receive a share from Aspen Moon Farm in the summer.
