A very cozy and well-stocked home. Beautiful views. Comfortable beds. Wonderful Hot Tub to relax in under the stars. We had a great time and we would come back!
The home was clean and comfortable and a great place to relax each day. The beds were made up with plenty of pillows and blankets, and there was additional bedding available if we needed it, as well as plenty of towels. The house was an easy drive to its location and close to our planned activities (Rocky Mountain National Park, The Stanley Hotel), several restaurants, and a grocery store. There was plenty of space and seating for our group on 9, and we saw elk and deer every day. The hot tub was leaking when during our stay, but our host came by every day to fill it up and it got plenty of use.
The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need. I brought vanilla just in case but didn't need it. I was impressed with the amount of stuff was in the kitchen for visitors to use. The rooms were big enough for all of us and the kids had plenty to do. The hot tub was clean and hot, just right for sitting in at night and star gazing. Close to town where we did not have to drive far to get a few thing we forgot to bring. We loved this house and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Estes Park, our family had a great time.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Estes Park cabin! The space was extremely comfortable and fully stocked with everything we needed for our visit, condiments, toiletries and coffee including anything we may have needed if we brought a child.The beds were cozy, and there were plenty of blankets to keep us warm. The host was very accommodating and even allowed us to check in a bit earlier, which we really appreciated. The water pressure in the showers was excellent.The wrap-around deck was amazing—perfect for enjoying the views and relaxing outside. The hot tub was a lovely bonus; while it was only at 96 degrees when we arrived, it was still very enjoyable and felt wonderfully private. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the area!
We all loved it and hope to come back again! A giant Elk greeted us as we pulled up to the property and we just knew it would be a great time for our family!
Perfect location and great house for family wedding in the area. The house is loaded with anything and everything you need. Would definitely stay here again if looking for a VRBO in the area.
We had a wonderful stay at this property! The house was beautiful, clean, and had everything our family needed. It was perfect for both adults and children, with plenty of space and all the comforts of home. The location was fantastic—close to everything yet still quiet and relaxing. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation spot and would definitely love to stay here again!
Wonderful place to stay in Estes near Rocky Mountain National Park. The host was very responsive. We enjoyed the tranquil setting, hot tub, and the kids loved the Rock Band gaming.
This is our second stay! We love the location of this cabin. We love the 2 decks and hot tub. It is extremely well stocked with everything you would need and more.Gary is welcoming and attentive. This home has space for everyone and it’s warm and comfortable.
This is our 2nd year to stay in this cabin!! Plenty of space for a large family!! Check in process was very easy and owner is quick to respond if something is needed!! Beautiful view of Mary’s Lake from back deck!
Nicely laid out so everyone had their own space with both indoor and outdoor seatings for gathering. Elk paraded by easily visible from the back deck. Quiet neighborhood made for restfull sleep after touring Rocky Mountain NP.
Wonderful stay! House had everything we needed. We appreciated the host replacing the espresso machine since we brought coffee to use and it was missing. Great location just outside Estes Park main area at Mary's Lake.
This place was great! Great view! Awesome wild life!

About the host
Hosted by Gary Peak
We live a little less than an hour away in Fort Collins. We have vacationed all over and often rented homes to stay in, and those were our best vacation memories.
Why they chose this property
It's all about the view! This area of the Rockies is one of the most beautiful places in the world, and one of the few very beautiful locations that has year-round activities. The location and convenience are a nice bonus, but the views were the main consideration in choosing this property.Every room, every window in this house has a great view. We looked for years at Estes Park and Grand lake for a second home that would be an investment and eventually a retirement home for us. We saw lots of properties with no nice view, or tiny windows, or neighbors too close,too small,or too 'inconvenient' to get to. This home is in a perfect, very quiet spot. Our neighbors are few, they are not close by, and do not spoil the view. Getting to the Park, the restaurants, and the shopping are easy from this location. On Summer weekends when the town is jammed with tourists, it is easy to bypass the traffic by using Peak View and Riverside drive. We love to go hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park, and access to the park is quick and easy from this location. The drive to the Park from our property does not go through town and traffic is never an issue even on Summer weekends.
What makes this property unique
We have gone a bit overboard with guest amenities. No vacation home has more entertainment options. The home theater with video games and movies will occupy the kids down stairs while the adults enjoy the view and 50 inch plasma tv upstairs.
