We could not figure out how to turn on the small gas fireplace in the living room. Other than that, no issues. Nice view located right on the stream.

Thank you hope to hear from you again remember to always contact your host if something is not working properly or you need something extra we did not hear anything from this guest during their two days stay the fireplace should always have a pilot light on and you just turn it up and down from the thermostat on the wall if the pilot light is out. It’s because somebody else messed with it and turned it off. We can easily tell you how to turn that back on with a simple message to us.

When we arrived the cabin had been double booked through another platform. I contacted custimer service and they contacted the owner who addressed the issue immediately and offered another cabin. Fortunately there was a vacancy at the same property or this could have been a messy start to our vacation. My understanding is this is something on the website's end. I would still recommend renting a cabin her because it is a beautiful view and so close to Estes Park but still outside of all of the "touristy" area. Just confirm with the property owner and your booking platform that there isnt a double booking.

Nice Stay in Estes

Everyone was very nice. The cabin is located right on Fall River which made hot tubbing in the evening very enjoyable.

Nice place and location. Had some issues with the front and back door locks. I suggest bringing water. The tap water has a funky taste. The hot tub was nice. Some road noise.

Anniversary stay

We spent our 30th anniversary at this lovely cabin. Had such a great time at the national park and Estes Park. Would definitely recommend and go back. The back deck with the river and jacuzzi were just such a bonus! Had a nice visit from several elk while there.

Just a great cozy, rustic cabin on the river, hot tub was amazing, got some snow and watching fall was so relaxing. Great escape for me, my wife and our dog, close enough to Estes if you need anything but not too close where you see and hear everyone. The only issues for us were the water pressure in the bathroom, and in the photos it shows like a K-Cup but when we got there it was a coffee pot, not a deal break just drove up to Ziggis for morning coff, great drive early in the morning and saw some deer, great time and experience, we would love to do it again. Thank you.

Clean, the only thing the shower didn't work very well. And didn't have a trash bag in the kitchen. Good thing we had some in the car. There was also a coffee maker just no coffee to brew. Couldn't figure out the oven but not a big deal. Had a much needed get away. Very beautiful and was able to fish right off of the balcony which was a plus for hubby. Overall it was amazing!! Hot tube was nice too.
