  Beautiful weather, great Scottish Irish festival & parade. We enjoyed this great house & surroundings. We even picked up a British accent while here. No sign of a bear though we saw a lot of deer. We would like to come back again. Many thanks!

  From the top loft with full bath and the built in bunk beds that are not just twin beds but full size beds, to the bottom level with three nice bedrooms and full bath with amazing shower. This place was perfect for our group. We had three couples and three kids 6yrs and under. The easy to use child gates were great for the wood stairs to keep our 14 month safe. The open floor plan from kitchen to dinning and great room we could all hang out in one place and chat. We have stayed in cabins and townhomes before in Estes but, this place knocked it out of the park. The amazing views from the deck and all the large windows WOW! ! We are trying to set up a date for next year to be back. We have rented rental vacation homes before but never with this much ease. The owner communicated well and we never had a worry or question she didn't solve.

  Recommended for: Adventure seekers, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

  Thank you so much for allowing our family from KS & CA to congregate here for an entire week! Tom & I celebrated our 40th anniversary with our family treating us to a lovely dinner at the Stanley. We also celebrated baby Daphne's 1st birthday. We made family memories of good food and tons of fun - and this lovely house was the setting for most it.

  We rented Mont Blanc for a central location for multiple family members to stay during a wedding. Accomadates easily large families. The kids loved the double bed built-in bunk beds and loft area. The location is up high on a foothill and has a beautiful view of Estes Park. It is close to the grocery store, liquor store and the best coffee and rock shop ever. The kitchen has all the cooking utensils you'd need. The grill works nicely. The beds are comfortable. Overall an awesome place to stay.

  If someone wrote a script for a Thanksgiving that would be so special it would stay in our hearts always, this would be that story. 3 generations ages 4 to 69. Snow boarding, hot tubbing, hiking, animal watching, football, apple apps and sharing photos. Shared dinner prep of a ginormous turkey & tons of great food. Snow and a Christmas parade! With Snow!!

  Those are some of the 'events' our family shared in this amazingly beautiful wonderland. This Thanksgiving wrapped itself around us. Laughing, sharing hugs and funny stories, trekking in snow, playing games and hanging out, a romantic proposal. So if someone wanted to write a perfect Thanksgiving script - this is it!

  We also loved the scenery views. No wildlife seen at the house except chipmunks, hawks & hummingbirds. Just up road saw elk, mule deer & a bobcat or small mountain lion streak across road! Spent the week enjoying all of RMNP - saw moose, elk, mule deer, trout and 2 cinnamon colored bears and an eagle driving for a fish. Whitewater rafted with RMT- great fun. Rode horses around Moraine Park Stables - again great fun. Thank you for sharing your home & Colorado. We will return!

  I just wanted to say thank you from our whole family for our great week at your Estes Park home. It was perfect and we had such a fun week! And I meant to include our bear sighting story in the Guest Book. We saw a large brown bear climb on top of the garbage container at about 6:30am on Friday morning. He swiped at the lock a few times (very smart, we thought) and then he ambled across the driveway and went down the hill. Our 4 year old was so excited to see a bear in "the wild"! Thank you again and I am sure we will be in touch to reserve another week at your lovely home.

  Most diverse vacation, boating, bungee jumping, jogging, hiking, horseback riding, batting cages, fishing, horse jumping show, go-karts, cooking and endless fun! Most memorable moment: walking through the screen door. Most unforgettable: cashier at the grocery store let us take over $60 of groceries home and bring the money back later. What an old world feeling. Most regrettable: No bear sighting!

  We loved the loft with plenty of room for kids to sleep and play, and the location which offered the best of both worlds - close to city and RMNP and yet secluded and private. We enjoyed seeing a black bear in a tree several blocks away. We also had a blast at Alberta Falls, Sprague Lake, Trail Ridge Drive, Sombrero Stables at Allenspark, and Fun City. We long to return soon! We could be permanently happy here. Excellent washer and dryer too! Thanks for providing detergent and special items

  We love your beautiful home with the picture windows, spacious rooms, wood beams & floors, and authentic decor. The design is family and kid friendly, and the wonderful wooden dining table perfectly suited for our family. The inviting den with well arranged furniture brought hours of family bonding time as we visited and played games. We enjoyed cooking each evening in the amazing kitchen. Other favorite parts of the house include incredible views and the relaxing deck.

  My wife, Sherry, may have already contacted you concerning our stay at Mont Blanc Chalet last week. However, whether she has or has not, I wanted to personally let you know how much we enjoyed being there. The house was perfect for us. We ended up eating many of our meals there because we enjoyed, so much, being around the table together and seeing such beautiful views as we visited and ate together. My daughter-in-law made the statement that she votes that we go back to Estes Park the next time that we all vacation together and see about staying at Mont Blanc once again... We tried to treat the home the same as we would our own home. We felt very honored to be there. We do hope that you will invite us back... As I am sure you know, Texas is having a horrible summer with the very hot temperatures. Being at Mont Blanc for a week was so nice with the lower temperatures of Colorado. It was a little warm a couple of days but was in the 70’s during the day most of the time. The nights were cooler. Thanks again for allowing us to live in your home for the week. We made so many wonderful memories there.

We enjoyed the many activities Colorado had to offer, trails, horseback riding, the Stanley Hotel ghost tour, golf and shopping. The 8 of us were here to celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary. Being together in our home was a great time. We played cards every night, put together puzzles and watched homemade videos.

  You provided the perfect home for the first time our blended family vacationed together. Thank you. Your home is beautiful and it was just right for giving everyone their own space and also sharing evening meals and game nights. What can we say about the view? Awesome! It was the backdrop for our rising and going to sleep. It changed minute by minute and always reminded us of just how majestic creation can be. We appreciated your warm hospitality in the decor, the appointments in the kitchen, the cleanliness of your home and attention to kid friendly details. Our goodbyes from Mont Blanc were hard. Thank you again for providing us with such a lovely spot to make beautiful memories.

  The Carlsons have totally enjoyed our stay at Mont Blanc. We loved being together under 1 roof, and a beautiful spacious one it is! The kitchen was perfect for our family dinner. The group hiked, biked, rafted down the river, shopped (a little), did the fun parks with the little kids, played lots of games and read lots of books. It was all good. We thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.
