About Granby

Tucked into the Fraser River valley, Granby offers a laid-back lifestyle right in the heart of Grand County, Colorado. Sitting at nearly 8,000 feet, this small community of around 2,100 residents is conveniently situated between the ski slopes of Winter Park and the waters of Grand Lake. While it began in the early 1900s as a railroad and ranching settlement, Granby is now a welcoming home base for people who love mountain scenery and wide-open spaces.

Granby during the winter

For families and newcomers looking to settle down, Granby serves as a practical everyday hub for the surrounding valley. Local kids attend East Grand School District campuses right in town, and the intersection of U.S. 40 and U.S. 34 provides easy access to grocery stores, healthcare, and dining. Year-round recreation is always close by, from boating on Lake Granby and skiing at Granby Ranch to hiking across nearby Rocky Mountain National Park.
