Longs Peak View, walk to downtown, historic charm
Estes Park Registration # 3251 Please read our cancellation policy before booking. Purchase insurance for any unforeseen issues. NO PETS. Convenience is what you get with Mabel's Cabin at L.R. Taylor's Estes Park Cabins. Mabel's is located on a hill just above the downtown of Estes Park with private steps leading to the center of town. But get away from it all on your private, covered deck and enjoy the view of Longs Peak and the mountain range. So park your car and walk to restaurants and shopping. Mabel's is also just minutes away from the famous Rocky Mountain National Park. 2.5 miles to Beaver Meadows Visitor Center. 4 miles to Fall Creek Entrance. (so enjoy all that it has to offer)
Originally built in the early 1900's by Mabel Van Hook, one of the four children of L.R. Taylor, to be her summer home and vacation spot. The cabin has been renovated to include all the modern conveniences, but still retains some of it's original charm.
Mabel's has a beautiful space outdoors to roam with trees, rock out-croppings, deer, elk and chipmunks. The elk have their own path right beside the cabin and enjoy resting under the trees. Please look at photos. Parking is tight. NO RV's, trailers or extra long vehicles. There is a steep hill leading down to the parking. In the winter, we do have snow removal. However, if you get stuck removal will be at your own expense.
Estes Park is the perfect vacation spot and there is something to do for everyone. You can rent this cabin year-round and enjoy the seasons of Colorado.
If this does not satisfy you we have 3 other cabins at LR Taylor Cabins listed on VRBO.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mark Schneider

This cabin was sold out of the family for quite a few years. We were lucky enough to purchase it so that it is back in the family. I have been coming to Estes Park for vacations since I was a toddler. I never tire of it's beauty and endless changing scenery. I hope you can build the same memories at our little heaven on earth.
Why they chose this property
Mabel's Cabin is one of 5 cabins with LR Taylor Cabins. My great, great Grandfather came to Estes in 1911 to start building his vacation home, along with his wife and 4 children. He died shortly thereafter, but his children each built their own cabin. Luckily, we were able to buy the ones that had left the family. The cabin we stay in has never left the family and has been passed on through the generations. Nell's Cabin was not in our family, but we bought it because of it's proximity. Each of the cabins has old photos of the family and Estes Park. Come enjoy the history.
What makes this property unique
This cabin has a perfect location in a private neighborhood. You can relax on the deck and enjoy the surroundings, watch the wildlife, walk downtown for food or shopping, or drive a short way to get to Rocky National Park. It is the best!
