About this property

Beautiful Rocky Mountain 9-Hole Golf Course Home-Walk to Visitor Center and Town

(Estes Park Town Registration #3256)
Beautiful house located on the 2nd fairway of the Estes Park 9 Hole Golf Course. Spectacular mountain views from all windows including the deck. Our home is a short walk (500 yards or less) to the Estes Park Visitors Center, Lake Estes Walking Trail, Big Thompson River for fly fishing and Elk Calving Area. We are located a half mile from downtown and it is an easy walk. The Estes Park Visitors Center (short walk) has shuttle buses available to drive you into Rocky Mountain National Park during the summer season.

Two of the bedrooms have cedar log king size beds. The third bedroom has twin beds. All 3 bedrooms have a chest of drawers, TV with remote control and ceiling fans. The Game Room has a set of twin bunk beds and a queen size hideaway sofa (all with memory foam mattresses). We also have a travel crib at the house if you need it. However, our house is NOT baby or toddler proofed!

The main level has 1 King Bedroom and 1 Full Bath; the downstairs level has 1 King Bedroom, Twin Bedroom, Game Room with Bunk Beds (2) and a Queen Hide Away Sofa Bed and 1 Full Bath.

A full size washer and dryer are also located downstairs in the utility room. Laundry Room also has an extra sink with a mirror. And yes... we have an iron and ironing board.

The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, Keurig coffee maker (bring your own K cups). Also included is a microwave, gas range, all utensils, pots, pans, plates, glasses and coffee mugs.

There is complimentary high-speed wireless internet. Also included is a 52 inch smart TV in the family room and a 32 inch flat screen TV in ALL 3 bedrooms with Sling streaming TV.

The large outside deck is great for watching the Elk, golfers or people fly fishing in the evening. We have lots of outside seating and a table if you choose to eat outside. There is a gas grill if you want to cook burgers or steak.

During elk rut season you will find many elk roaming the golf course behind our home. Amazing front row seat to this magical nature season. Also front row seats for the July 4th fireworks!

Loved the house and would definitely stay again! Everything was super clean. The owner was very proactive in checking in with us. Loved the location, great walking paths around Lake Estes. Close to everything. Only minor criticism were the pillows. They have quite a few very nice memory foam pillows. Those just are not our preference. We would definitely take our own pillows next time.

It is a beautiful home, with spacious areas to gather - large kitchen, dining table and plenty of seating in the living room. The house has a large deck with plenty of seating and we enjoyed sitting outside and watching the elk on the golf course. We were very lucky to be there during the elk rutting season and they visited the golf course each morning and evening. So much fun to watch and listen. The house was well maintained and equipped. The house had plenty of Kleenex; the only surprise was that there was no shampoo or bar soap in the house. We were surprised because every other place we’ve stayed has provided them.

This house is really the perfect location for a week of solitude, and or a busy week in Estes Park. It is very quiet on a golf course and yet only a half a mile from downtown Estes Park. A great home.

Wonderful Estes Park weekend!

Our group of four adults, two teens and a middle-schooler loved our stay at the Hofemann's home on the Estes Park golf course! The home is indeed beautiful and spacious with lovely views. We so enjoyed the comfy furnishings and wide deck. This gem was a lot more private and secluded feeling than it looked from the photos. Yet, everything we wanted to do in Estes was within walking distance or a quick trip in the car. It made for a wonderful family weekend in the mountains.

Estes Park Accessible

What a great home in a beautiful setting just outside of the Estes hustle and bustle. We shopped and dined in Estes and walked from the home. Might not be for everyone but everything was within 1.5 miles and much of the walk was along the Fall River. The house had everything that we needed to make several meals and the evenings on the deck overlooking the golf course were really special for our family.

Lovely stay in Estes Park

We were in town to see the Rocky Mountain National Park. This property was very nicely equipped and clean. The golf course in the back is very scenic and sometimes had geese and elk to watch. The yard could use a mow though. All in all, we really liked the property.

GREAT PLACE and LOCATION

So glad we booked this place! Beautiful views across the golf course, close to everything, layout was perfect for visiting and had enough beds/bedrooms for a fun girls weekend. Clean, had all the amenities we needed, clear instructions for Wifi TV etc. And although we had no issues it was nice to know we could reach via text or phone for a quick response. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Thanksgiving Retreat

Home was in a great location! Kitchen was fully stocked, as listed including a griddle, crockpot, multiple sized pots and pans, roaster, mixers and multi-sized bowls. This was great for meals. Home was walking distance from the stores in Historic Estes but did require crossing Hwy 34. Awesome view of the mountains. We would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Paul and Joyce Hofemann

Host profile image
Paul and Joyce were married in 1997 and have three children, twin girls and a son. After living in California and New York we moved to Austin, Texas in 2007. Recently we visited Colorado to escape the Texas summer heat and fell in love with Estes Park. We decided to purchase a second home in this beautiful area for our personal getaway as well as offer it as short term vacation rental for others who want to enjoy the Rocky Mountains.

Why they chose this property

Walking distance to downtown restaurants, few hundred yards from Thompson River for fly fishing, large deck overlooking golf course lot that is frequented by large elk during rut season.

What makes this property unique

Parking downtown is nearly impossible during peak summer months. Our property is within walking distance of downtown while still in a quiet, natural setting of a golf course. Elk frequently pass thru our backyard to get to their favorite meeting spots on this golf course.
