Our family stayed a week at this wonderful home that’s close to the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. The home is spacious and features stunning views of Long’s Peak. The rooms are big, the kitchen is well-equipped for cooking family meals, the deck is great. Everything was clean and worked well. The home owners communicated clearly and were very nice to deal with. Our family would stay again in a heartbeat. We were comfortable and happy. The only sad part was having to leave!

Perfect location! Views were beautiful! House was plenty big. It is very dated, but everything works. Having to take out the garbage when we departed and having to clean AND put all the dishes away is frustrating. We paid for cleaning!! That’s all part of cleaning.

Beautiful views and convenient to RMNP

The house is very clean and well cared for. The location is perfect for entry into the park. There is a small grocery store just a few minutes away and a larger one about 10 minutes away so it is convenient to stock up on food. The neighborhood is very peaceful and quiet. The best part are the VIEWS! Stunning! We did our hikes in the morning and then spent the afternoons watching clouds/storms pass across the peaks. Highly recommend.

The property is as described. However, if you are looking for something "fancy." Then keep scrolling. This place is for those who want to truly experience the RMNP. Its a quaint family cabin. PERFECT for my wife and I. Our party was only two, but the house will accommodate more. Very comfortable living room with large windows overlooking the park. When I say overlooking the park, I mean your view shed is bookended with The Twin Sisters peak on the left and Deer Mountain to the right. In the center, Longs Peak, in all its glory. You do see other houses but you are not right on top of each other as the lot is large. On the property you will see deer, elk, a billon chipmunks, maybe a bear, humming bird, birds that will land on your hand...and bobcats. My wife and I saw (on property) all but the bear.We will definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Aaron Acela or Emma Acela

Host profile image
My Wife, Father and I purchased our home in Estes Park in October of 2000. My father had traveled to Colorado many times with his parents as a kid. When he shared the mountain experience with me for the first time I knew I would always come back. We chose Estes Park as the people here are great and the atmosphere in town is very warm and inviting. In the spring there is lush green and wildflowers. Summer offers beautiful scenery and cool mountain air. Fall abounds with golden aspen and wildlife to include elk, deer, rabbit and even the occasional bear. Winters are mild and there is even downhill skiing and snow boarding within an hours drive. With just five minutes to downtown Estes or the entrance to RMNP we knew this was home.

Why they chose this property

Our family enjoys sitting on the deck and watching the clouds roll in over Longs Peak in the afternoon while our three daughters use grandpa’s binoculars searching the mountain sides and looking at the humming birds. The sky is so blue and the smell of pine trees in the air is relaxing while my wife enjoys a favorite book. Many evenings are spent grilling on the deck and eating as a family at the picnic table. Many nights are spent talking and telling stories next to the fire in the living room and planning the next days hike around Estes or in Rocky Mountain National Park.

What makes this property unique

Breathtaking views of Longs Peak and the Continental Divide and herds of elk and deer in the yard, along with the quiet secluded area and large moss rock fireplace are a few of the unique features of our cabin.
