Overall, my family really enjoyed our stay. It is a great location to downtown and RMNP. We enjoyed the hot tub, although it may need some upkeep/maintenance as the jets were not very strong. House was cozy and the beds were comfy.

The Cabin was as describe. It was clean and provided everything we need. Very easy to access RMNP from the cabin. It is older, so keep that in mind, but for the price, it was a great option for our family.

Quick Spring trip

Great location. Although uphill from road location felt private and quiet with fantastic view of mountains from lovely front porch. Five of us at the cabin was cozy but loved it. We prefer a unique travel experience rather than a cookie cutter condo and this is just that! The cabin has fun, unique artwork etc which we appreciate!

Nice to be able to walk to town. Hot Tub was wonderful. There are several things that are in disrepair. Carpet needs serious replacing. Outdoor chairs have nails sticking up. In general it needs a good cleaning and some maintenance.

Rocky Mountain park basecamp

Cozy cabin worked great as base camp for our family of 4! It’s dated, but we thought it was a great value for the location. There is ample outdoor seating and the hot tub is a great way to end the day. Enjoy the views, we saw elk and mule deer nearby every night!

Lovely spot to visit Rocky Mountain NP

Perfect location and home for a small family to visit RMNP. Very well stocked and appointed. Safe neighborhood. Only negative is how old the property is but still giving it 5 stars due to all the positives. Great communication from Karine about local to do’s and eating spots.

Estes Park

Close to downtown, RMNP AND Roosevelt National Park.Cabin was clean, but is dark inside even with lights. Hot tub was good. Furniture uncomfortable due to sagging. Did not use equipment in shed, but was available. Animals would come into yard which was cool.

Easy to work with

We had some issues when we first got checked in but the owner was very accommodating and everything worked out great in the end. The hot tub was perfect and we got to hang out in the hot tub while it snowed. It was a first for us.

Great Location

We enjoyed our stay. Hot tub was a bonus. Loved our location. Had a parade of elk walk right past us while sitting on the front porch. Amenities were abundant. Only reason we gave a 4 on cleanliness was because carpets and furniture are quite worn and could use some updating. overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Happy

House was amazing. Having a shed full of bikes, skis, hiking poles and snow shoes was a blessing. Pictures online makes it look very secluded but its not. Have neighbors and lodges all around and very close to down town. The hottub was the icing on top. Perfect way to end the day after hikjng tourest area.

Great cabin in Estes Park!!!!!!

Our family LOVED staying at this cabin. It had everything we needed to enjoy a Colorado vacation. Our kids especially enjoyed the hot tub, hanging out on the rocks in back and seeing the wildlife up close and personal!! The elk and mule deer came around to the cabin and the mule deer nibbled grass right behind us while we were in the hot tub. It was amazing! The cabin had everything we could ask for. Loved the games and movies and the décor was very rustic and fitting.

Great location

Overall a good place to stay if you want to visit the park and the town. The activity shed was good me and my kids we went sledding using the provided sleds. The hot tub was on but weather did not permit the use of it. The only downfall I would say was the driveway because of its steepness and the weather which can't be controlled but good to be mindful of. Even in my F-350 we had to use our wheel lockers to get up into the parking spot.

Well this had to be most disappointing vrbo I have ever been to. The couches are unsitable due to the sagging. The bathroom shelfs are half falling out of the wall. No shower curtain liner, water runs onto the floor when showering. The kitchen facuet is not secured and does not swivel. All the plates have chips in them and none of the glasswear match. Only 1 wine glass? Pots and pans have seen better days. On the positive side the bed toppers are very comfortable but the electric fireplace in the bedroom makes so much noise you can't sleep with it on. The washer and dryer was very much appreciated but they are not level and shake when spinning. The dishwasher was great. The hot tub jets are weak to say the least, but the water was nice and hot. The option of wood or gas outdoor fireplace was nice we used both. The grill has something to be desired. The maintenance man was quick to respond to our requests which was appreciated. The outdoor garbage can is not bear proof. Woke up to garbage all over the yard, following that we left the garbage in the house. Some simple improvements wouldn't cost alot and would change the whole vibe of the place. I don't mind "rustic" but it was not comfortable.

Location was wonderful! We had a herd of Elk visit the property 2 days out of 4. What a wonderful experience. Hot tub was great and amenities at the property were just what we needed. The only minor issue we had was lack of closets/hangers to store our clothes/luggage. Again- very minor but worth noting. Would definitely recommend!
