It’s been almost a year since Anthony Melchiorri, Blanche Garcia and the crew of the Travel Channel’s Hotel Impossible visited Grand Lake and showed the world our winter wonderland! Here’s an excerpt from the local paper’s interview with Anthony: 
 
Anthony Loves Grand Lake: “I will go on record saying it’s the most beautiful place I’ve ever been,” he said. “I was blown away. Grand Lake is a piece of art. Every single time you turn around there is either frozen lake with a beautiful cloud over it, or there’s a part of the lake that’s not frozen with a sun over it, or there’s a mountain by itself or a formation of mountains. I’ve not seen the same landscape since I’ve been here. And then you take this beautiful town of Grand Lake that looks like the back lot of a Hollywood studio and you incorporate that with just beautiful open-hearted people that know each other – it’s my favorite place, and it is the most beautiful place I’ve ever been. And I thought Alaska and Hawaii would be tops, and this surprised me.” From Sky-Hi News article by Tonya Bina
