We genuinely enjoy hosting guests from around the world and take pride in providing clean, comfortable accommodations and helpful local insight. Whether you need hike suggestions, dining recommendations, or tips for avoiding traffic into the park, we’re happy to help before or during your stay.

Being part of this community matters to us. We volunteer with local events such as the Estes Park Duck Race, Elk Fest, and Catch the Glow Parade, and we love contributing to the place we’re fortunate to call home.

To help you create great memories in Estes Park — and hopefully welcome you back again.

Why they chose this property

Our cabins are located on the desirable west side of Estes Park — a favorite for guests who want easy access to Rocky Mountain National Park while staying outside the busy downtown core.

Here, you can enjoy:

Quieter surroundings with less traffic

Quick access to RMNP entrances

Walkable restaurants, coffee shops, and groceries

A nearby seasonal free shuttle stop to downtown

You get the best of both worlds — peaceful mountain charm with convenient access to everything Estes Park has to offer.

We take pride in providing exceptionally clean, comfortable accommodations and are always happy to share local tips to make your stay memorable. Many of our guests return year after year — and refer friends and family — which we consider the highest compliment.

If your dates aren’t available, we also offer our downtown Riverwalk Loft Condos (VRBO #471009).

We look forward to welcoming you to Estes Park.

What makes this property unique

This isn’t just a cabin — it’s two private cabins on one peaceful property, offering a rare combination of togetherness and personal space.

The unique layout allows:

Two couples to travel together comfortably

Friends to share a getaway without sharing every room

Families with older children to enjoy independence while staying just steps away

The cabins are approximately 40 feet apart — close enough for shared meals and evening gatherings, yet separate enough for privacy and quiet when you want it.

Start your mornings on the east-facing front porch, soaking in Colorado sunshine and crisp mountain air. With nearly 300 days of sunshine each year and unforgettable star-filled nights, Estes Park delivers natural beauty in every season.

Located less than two miles from the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park and just minutes from town events, you’ll enjoy easy access to adventure without sacrificing peace and relaxation.

It’s the perfect balance of convenience, flexibility, and mountain charm — something you won’t find in a typical single-cabin rental.
