Plus, the Estes Park Marina is less than 1,500 yards away. Whether you have your own boat or choose to rent one, boating on Lake Estes offers a serene way to experience the beauty and serene way to experience the beauty and views of Estes Park and its surroundings. You'll feel a million miles away from civilization even though you're in the heart of it.

Outdoor Living at Vista of Lake Estes

Do you enjoy a round of golf while relaxing in the rarified mountain air? Vista of Lake Estes is just 100 yards from Hole No. 2 at the Lake Estes 9-Hole & Disc Golf Course. And the Lake Estes walking/hiking/bike trail is just 500 yards away. Located in the center of Estes Valley, the Lake Estes Trail acts as a central trail hub for an extensive trail network throughout the Estes area and Rocky Mountain National Park. The approximately 4-mile long trail is managed by the Estes Valley Parks and Recreation District.

Lodging at Vista of Lake Estes

But, there's plenty to do without ever leaving Vista of Lake Estes as well. You'll be absorbed in its panoramic mountain views, deck views of Lake Estes, water views, golf course views, outdoor hot tub, wildlife out your windows, lots of room and plenty of amenities for your stay!

This 3 bedroom, 3 bath (all with showers) home has two fireplaces, a recreational area in the basement with a pool table, plus a comfortable sun room on the main level to take in the views if you just want to relax.

The Deck and Views at Vista of Lake Estes

The expansive deck overlooks Lakes Estes and the golf course, which happens to be where elk gather to rut in the fall, and females calve in the spring. There's a good chance you will see elk and deer within 20 yards of the home, while sipping coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening.

Experience the stunning 180 degree panorama, including views of Twin Sisters, Prospect Mountain, Lake Estes and more; plus views of the Mummy Range from the side of the house. You are a short walk into town, so no need to worry about parking issues, and a 6 minute walk to Lake Estes and the Lake Estes Hiking Trail. Both entrances to Rocky Mountain National Park are less than 15 minutes away (don't forget your timed-entry reservation). Just two blocks away, there is also a stop on the Estes Park free shuttle when it is running in high season.
The Main Level

The main level of the home has multiple large windows so viewing is non-stop. You'll find comfortable sofas, chairs and a dining table that easily seats 8 and can accommodate 10 with additional leaf. The home sleeps 8, with one bedroom in the basement, the master on main level and the third on the upper level. Each has a quality queen bed, plus there is a comfortable full-size sleeper sofa in the basement. It also has a whole house attic fan for those rare warm days; quiet and efficient.

The Kitchen and Dining Room at Vista of Lake Estes

Vista of Lake Estes offers a modern kitchen that's fully stocked with all of the accoutrements you'll need to prepare the family's favorite recipes. Slow cook a stew while you are out and about, make waffles, or cook a big pot of pasta! A gas grill sits on the deck, where you can also dine outside. And, the hot tub on the side of the home is great after a day of hiking!

Vista of Lake Estes is everything you want and need in a comfortable, family mountain vacation home!

Overall the place was just what we were looking for our stay is Estes Park. Close to town with GREAT views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Very close to Lumpy Ridge and just 10 minutes to the NP entrance. I thought the pet fee was too high but that was my only complaint.

There are quite a few of the window cranks broken so all the windows would not open, which is quite disappointing. The views from the back patio are absolutely stunning. The location of the house to town and other activities is fabulous.

Beautiful Views

We had a family get together here. The view of Estes Lake and snow capped mountains was beautiful. Kitchen was well stocked, beds comfy, window views beautiful, and some toys for our 2 and 7 yr old grand children were available. Downtown Estes was nearby and Safeway. We enjoyed walking from the house down to a paved stroller friendly walking path alongside the lake.

Beautiful home

Stay was great except the first night we were there the heat would not tuen on for about 2 hours and it was cold in the house. Sent email as it stares if any concerns to do so and did not get response for 3 days we were there. The home was beautiful, views were gorgeous and it was stocked with things we needed.

The Best way to experience Estes Park

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. Beautiful views from every angle! We have beem coming to Estes Park for 11 years and this is a new favorite place to stay for us. 3 bedrooms, one on each level with its.own bathroom allowed plenty of space. Nice well stocked kitchen and lovely deck to enjoy the breathtaking views. Pool table was an added bonus that entertained us in the evenings. We hope to come back next year!

Fun in Estes Park

Loved the location and view from the deck overlooking Estes Lake with the Rocky Mountains in the background was wonderful! We did have a bit of a problem gaining access to the house - code wasn't working and management could have been a bit more responsive. We also never got access to wifi and didn't receive any communication, other than code would be inactive after 10am, regarding checkout day.

Home Away From Home

We stayed six nights in this incredible home. The views were incredible in every direction and the location perfect for access to anything you may want to do! This home was beyond welcoming with special touches such as coffee flavorings, full spice cabinet, extra quilts/blankets, pillows, bathroom needs, laundry soap, well stocked kitchen, large grill and two wonderful dining tables, and even a candle lit hot tub and pathway area! The list goes on..... The owners truly care about their guests visit! I do want to mention there is no AC however that was not an issue for our October stay. The powerful attic fan really did the trick when we needed to cool the house down. We only had one issue....we used the host's provided fire logs burning just one log a day and it took TWO DAYS for housekeeping to bring more! Very disappointing but not the host's fault! Regardless, we will return and highly recommend to others.

Amazing place to stay in Estes Park!

This place was absolutely magical. The views are incredible in the house was wonderful. The location is perfect for evening walks on the golf course or fishing in the big Thompson. We saw elk almost every night. It was beautiful! It’s also just a short walk from downtown, which was super convenient. Our only recommendation is that they improve communication. Evidently this property is managed by wind lift and not the actual owner of the property so we had to go through messaging them through the app for help. If you try to call after 5:30 PM, you’re not gonna get anyone which is a bit concerning. Wind cliff did not send our checkin information. I had to ask for it on our way there, but they did send it promptly. Also the cleaning crew was still there 45 minutes after our check-in time. The oven was boiling hot because they had put it on a cleaning cycle and kind of concerned us for a while until it finally shut off because we couldn’t make it stop. They also did not have propane which they said they did. They took care of it very quickly as well and left us a complementary bottle of wine, which was nice.Overall, it was excellent just they need to improve communication on the Windcliff side I think. These things were a bit inconvenient, but definitely not dealbreaker. We absolutely loved our time there and would stay again in a heartbeat. Definitely use the attic fan at night. It’s wonderful and the hot tub was a huge plus as well!
