This property was perfect for our family stay. The open space between kitchen, living room and dining room allowed us all to be together but still have enough space. And those views... simply breathtaking! The kitchen was well appointed which we appreciated. The bedroom/batherooms were great size and the only small critique we would have is that the queen sized mattress really needs to be updated. My husband and I rolled into one another all night which led to me sleeping on the sofa the second night. Our three year old granddaughter enjoyed exploring the rocks behind the property and loved the neighboring horses as well. We appreciated the convenience to Estes Park as well as Rocky Mountain National Park too. This was a wonderful stay and we wouldn't hesitate to book it again next time.

Absolutely Beautiful

This property has great vibes and great views. It was very clean and close enough to town to make a quick trip to the store, but far enough from town for some peaceful privacy. We will definitely stay here again.

This place is so wonderful I selfishly want to keep it a secret! The views and location are simply breathtaking. There were horses, rabbits, hummingbirds, chipmunks and deer nearby. Estes Park is 10 minutes and RMNP 15 minutes as well. WE WILL BE BACK!

Scenic and comfortable!

What a view!! This place was honestly amazing. The location was about 10 minutes from downtown Estes and the property itself made you feel many miles away from anywhere. The view from the living room is unbeatable. The mountains are showcased through floor to ceiling windows. Everything about this was great and I'd definitely recommend this and stay again!

Terrific getaway. Pictures don't do the views justice and the property has absolutely everything you need. We couldn't find the thermostat and the property managers immediately sent instructions. Honestly, it couldn't have been much better.

Great location and view

The location of the home provided some seclusion but was still close enough to town/park for quick trips if needed. The view of the mountains from the living room was amazing. We saw elk and deer on/near the property on a daily basis and had a visit from a fox on the patio one evening. As far as the home, it had some things that were outdated (70’s feel when we first walked in) but the location and views more than made up for it.

Interesting house, great views. We arranged to rent it but couldn’t stay there because our dog was acting up and we had to stay at the house where she was. Really hope to stay there ourselves someday.

Great Stay!

We loved staying at Stutzhaven! The views from the living room were incredible and the highlight of the stay. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable to stay in. The cleaning company didn’t do a great job though - we found food (dried sausage) and misc objects under the couch. The living room carpet didn’t seem like it was cleaned well either (hair everywhere…not just a strand or two). Otherwise, we rate the house as 9/10!

Stutzhavrn = Relaxation!

Stutzhaven is a great property. Very quiet and secluded but within minutes of Estes Park and the gateways to RMNP. Unfortunately and fortunately the road the home is on was being repaved during the week we rented which was a challenge. But now the road to the home is very nice (we didn't think the road was in much need of repair anyway!). We spent time with family and saw all the sights. The touristy sites were good but the real star of the show in the area is RMNP. Make sure you drive the Old Fall River Road-you won't regret it!
