Historic 1920's Riverfront vacation cottage in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Located just outside downtown Estes Park on the banks of the Big Thompson River. Picturesque surroundings with towering Ponderosa pines, the Canyon, and the Big Thompson river!
This cottage is for the antique lover! You will be surrounded with antiques from the light fixtures to the 1800's carved wooden bed! There are two bedrooms. The floors are three and a quarter inch wide white oak throughout the cabin. There is a 1920's refrigerator, antique decorative cook stove, and modern stove. The bathroom is graced with a claw foot tub and shower.
A picnic area is provided in front of the cottage beside the river. The Big Thompson River is very wide at this point and there is even a small island in the middle right in front of the property. There is a family of ducks living at this point in the river. It is known to be one of the best fly fishing areas too and you have private entry to the river!
Behind the cabin, there is steeper terrain with many rock outcropping, very scenic! A very large rock formation can be found to the right rear of the cabin! Beautiful scenery from every single window!

New Listing "Roaring River Cottage" 1920's Riverside Cabin
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Estes Park
We chose this beautiful location to buy a cottage as it was next to a large, rushing river and surrounded by towering Ponderosa Pines.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage
Our property is unique as there are not many original 1920's cottages left in the area. From the light fixtures to the cook stove to the claw foot tub, you won't find another like it!
Owner's Map of Estes Park
I have always dreamed of owning a rental cottage. When I was a child, I used to stay in the deep woods of Northern Michigan. These were the fondest memories of my life. I always adored the historic rental cabins that I saw on my trip. Providing a unique, memorable accommodation to make your vacation even more special has been a lifelong goal of mine. I also teach piano and have started up the sport of baton twirling with my daughter. We are going to Nationals this year!
