This was a home that was very well laid out. Each bedroom has a King size bed one being in the loft which was very spacious, and two on the main floor and one on the bottom floor which is a walkout basement. The view and accessibility to the lake was superb. It was just a short distance down to the concrete path that went around the lake. We enjoyed our morning walks around the lake. We will be coming back in the future.
This home was just perfect for us. Party of 6, parents and 4 kids in teens/20s. We walked a lot from here into town or just along the lake. We played card games and puzzles. The kitchen, grill and hottub got lots of use. It was just awesome. The location and amenities can't be beat. We would def come back.
The property was well keep and amazing. The best way to describe it is a modern cabin with a rustic appeal but all the modern tech comforts. I will definitely be staying here again.
Stunning home, decor and setting made our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. The house is in a great location easily accessible to town and activities. Very responsive host.
My family had the BEST time!!!! The house was perfect and so was the location! ZERO complaints! We already want to go back and definitely staying here again!
This house is amazing and has everything to make your stay wonderful. The kitchen is well equiped, bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and comfortable. The view from the deck is amazing. The location of the house is perfect and allows for easy access to all the town and Rocky Mountain National Park has to offer.

Wonderful Stay
This house was perfect for our stay with our adult children and their spouses. The location was ideal for exploring Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park and the views from the deck overlooking the lake were spectacular.
The host was communicative and the house was equipped with everything that we needed for our visit.

Thank you for the great review. We are so glad you enjoyed the home and we would be happy to have you back anytime.
We had the most amazing stay at this beautiful home in Estes Park! Everything about it was just perfect — from the breathtaking mountain views to the cozy, charming decor that made it feel like a true home away from home.The property was incredibly clean, well-appointed, and full of thoughtful touches that made our stay extra comfortable. Communication with the host was excellent, and we felt fully supported throughout our visit. It was clear that they genuinely cared about making our experience a great one.We’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking to relax and enjoy the best of Estes Park!
The property both inside and out exceeded our expectations. Rustic/ yet very modern interior. All amenities one could imagine were thoughtfully provided. My immediate family (six adults and two small children) had a wonderful stay and plan to return annually if possible. Highly recommend.

Thank you David for being a great guest and taking the time to write a review! We would love to have you back!
The house is beautifully updated and in pristine condition. Spectacular views. Loved the deck. The kitchen was fully appointed. Convenient location only minutes from downtown Estes Park and RMNP entrances. The owner was very accessible for communication. We highly recommend the house and the owner! We would definitely stay there again.
My husband and I have made many trips to Estes Park, but never stayed on Lake Estes before. This cabin had a fabulous balcony overlooking the lake. The kitchen was well stocked although we ate out a lot this trip.
The owner and property manager were easily reached during our stay to answer any questions we had. Great cabin for large family or friends to share.

Thank you for choosing our home, being a great guest and taking the time to write a review! We would love to have you back!
The home exceeded our expectations! Wonderful location, gorgeous views, beautifully furnished. Comfortable and spacious. Communication with the owner was excellent from start to finish. This is a perfect rental for three-four couples, or a large family. I highly recommend this rental and hope to return soon.
This is a beautiful home with views unimaginable. The owner planned out everything in detail making check in and check out a breeze. Home was fully stocked with everything you need. Lake and mountain views along with wild elk and deer viewing was fantastic. Close to all amenities and Rocky Mountain National Park.
What an amazing time spent with family. We hiked in the mountains, rode bikes, took long walks, rented a pontoon boat, went to dinner and enjoyed time sitting around the fire pit. The elk even attempted to join our group!! Couldn’t have asked for a better location.
