Many Colorado towns sold off their original platted public squares, but Grand Lake's Town Square remains a public park that has been used for fish frys, rodeos, and buffalo barbecues. Town volunteers built the central Community House (1922), now used as a summer theater. A 1995 addition erased the stone chimneys and quaint rusticity of what is now a larger, reconfigured building. Other structures on the square include a combined library and fire station, a bandstand, an ice rink, and the old log Presbyterian Church.
