Subdivided in 1947
The Lake Forest area is 5 miles south of Grand Lake, along the north shore of Lake Granby.

Most roads are county maintained. Natural gas is in most of the roads. Covenants are very basic. There is no homeowners’ association, just water associations. Nightly rentals are permitted.
