Perfect getaway cabin!

Peaceful and private yet close to the park entrance and restaurants, etc. Hosts were helpful with recommendations. Then there were the deer that hang out in the yard as well as elk nearby.

We absolutely loved Mountain Shadows and hope to stay here again when we're back in Estes Park. The cabin was conveniently located near Rocky Mountain National Park and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including air conditioning, kitchen and a hot tub.

When we were looking to book a property in the Estes Park area, we were searching for a cozy romantic cabin. This property rated well and upon arriving there, we could definitely see why. The cabin had everything we needed and the owners were very helpful with recommending places to try in the vicinity. We had great memories here and would definitely recommend the property to anyone else traveling to Estes or RMNP!

STAY HERE IT'S LITERALLY PERFECT

Very great place! Haven't stayed at a place this cared for and well kept in a while! It's clear that the owners have poured their heart and soul into this place, and have made sure to be involved at every level to make sure things are exceeding expectations. My expectations were surely exceeded and their friendliness and homely touches were not unnoticed. It was very nice to actually have everything we needed! Utensils, dish soap, trash in the kitchen, extra water bottles... These are typically things always forgotten at other places... But not here!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this cozy cabin, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! Even days before we were scheduled to arrive, communication with Pam was excellent. She was extremely helpful and accommodating. The cabin itself was impeccable and incredibly comfortable, providing a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. One of the highlights of my stay was the hot tub right next to the bed, which was the ideal spot to unwind and relax.. The addition of a charming chimney in the room added an extra touch of coziness, making the atmosphere truly magical. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with outstanding service, this cabin is the place to be! I would give it a 10 out of 5 stars if I could! Thank you, Mountain Shadows Resort, for an unforgettable experience! We will definitely be back soon and plan to make this an annual retreat.
