About this property

Unbelievable Mountain Views from Thompson River

(6019 and approval number 20-NCD0267) Imagine waking up to the view of a 14,000 foot mountain, Long's Peak, or eating breakfast while you watch a herd of elk or even a bobcat drink from the Big Thompson River. A five minute drive from the Rocky Mountain National Park entrance and Downtown Estes Park, Estes on the River offers all that and more.

The 3 bedrooms have comfy king size beds. The master bedroom (downstairs) has its own bath and a striking view of the river and mountains. The second bedroom (upstairs) enjoys the same view. The third bedroom (upstairs and slightly smaller) looks out on a hillside often populated by elk, deer, and turkeys. The property can comfortably sleep six people. Available wifi makes it easy to share your experiences with family and friends back home. And whether you want to read next to the stone fireplace, sit on the patio and watch the wildlife, or lounge in the loft with a board game -- there's a perfect spot for everyone.

Enjoy cooking? The kitchen with granite counter tops comes fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, cookware, dishes, flatware, and even crystal. With the summer farmers market only a five minute drive into Downtown Estes Park, you can easily pick up locally grown produce, grass-fed bison, or handmade pierogies. And don't worry, if you just want some Oreo's there are grocery stores, too! If you feel like grilling, head out to the patio and fire up the propane grill.

Less than an hour and a half from Denver International Airport and only 45 minutes from Boulder, Estes on the River is easily accessible from Highway 36. This is a true escape from the ordinary, so come up to our mountains and let the Big Thompson River wash your worries away.

The property was excellent. The view was fantastic. Everything that was stocked was great. We absolutely loved our stay. The 2 sets of blinds by the dining room table didn’t work. The fireplace only worked the 1st night. The showerhead in the downstairs bathroom could be replaced. I just wanted to let you know what wasn't working. If we ever come back to Estes Park, I'll definitely be looking for your place. Thanks so much!

This was an amazing experience for our family. The location is breathtaking. Waking up to elk every morning was extra special. The river is beautiful and our young sons had fun catching fish in the evenings. We will definitely be coming back!!

We LOVED this house! We had the best time. The house was absolutely perfect, so cute and super nice. It was so close to the park entrance, we went up to RMNP in the morning to play, back to the house for lunch, then back to the park for afternoon hiking too. The view from the living room and deck was spectacular. Our kids loved the river, and we even had some Mule Deer come right through the back yard for a visit. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful stay!

We have been coming for over 20 years and just love these condos! Unit 8 has the best views, especially up river. The Big Thompson was slow enough to where we could fish off our back porch. Caught a few trout with a fly rod! Kitchen was fully stacked with cookware, spices, and plates/utensils/cups. Lots of games, puzzles and books in the unit too - great for rainy days! Will look forward to booking again in the fall.

Even better than described and pictured

We chose this property based on the photos. My wife's family would tow a camper on their vacations and always find a spot by a creek or stream. If the pictures in the listing were accurate, we would be happy. The pictures truly didn't do justice to the condo/cabin. When we first arrived and opened the back door, heard the river and saw it literally steps from the patio, we knew we had chosen well. The space was ideal for our party. My mother in law has some mobility issues and had no problems with navigating into or around the bottom floor and patio. Us "kids" had the upstairs and my nephew used the sofabed in the loft area. Every space was comfortable. We cooked and ate all our meals at the condo so we also appreciated the well stocked kitchen. Plenty of spices, oils, dishes, cookware (including 2 crockpots), utensils, glasses and mugs. The appliances were terrific, especially the dishwasher that was super super quiet. Another item of note, there was plenty of paper products thoughout the house. A pet peeve is to have a rental only to find one roll of toilet paper supplied. Not a problem here. This space is so close to the Rocky Mountain National Park entrance too. We went to the park every day and when we were at the rental we spent most of our time watching birds from the patio. One afternoon a small group of elk came along the river and rested just upstream and another night a deer and fawn walked right past the deck. Absolutely the best place we've stayed!
