Grand Lake - Colorado STR Construction Costs??
Hey guys was looking to see if anyone has had any experience building A-frame homes or log cabins intended for STR use. I am not from the area and I am trying to find out what it would cost PSF to build a 800-1500 SF residence in Grand Lake. Would love to connect with some contractors or individuals that have experience in STR and/or construction near Grand Lake, Colorado. Cheers!

Hey @Patrick Swiszcz! Building costs in colorado vary greatly depending on your county, as well as what level of fit and finish you want. I am not super familiar with Grand County building standards but just for example Surrounding counties like Larimer, you can build for 150-250 a square foot, however Boulder County due to their standards and requirements, you can count it costing at least 350 a square foot. I have a few contacts that may be able to assist you, feel free to reach out!
