Rustic mountain getaway just steps away from the Big Thompson River from starting at only $109/night in off-season! Situated between downtown Estes Park (less than one mile!) with plentiful shopping and restaurants, and Rocky Mountain National Park with bountiful wildlife, sight-seeing, and hiking opportunities. Enjoy a cup of coffee while watching the local elk heard meander through the property or stroll down to the Big Thompson to try your luck for the big catch. ( The river is only 100 feet away down the hill from the cabin at the end of a large, grassy common area.)

Cabin is completely updated with contemporary mountain decor. The two-bedroom cabin features a wonderfully appointed master with a queen bed. The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a full bed on bottom and a twin on top--perfect for either a second couple's room or for the kids to enjoy. The living space has a wood burning fireplace to enjoy the crackle and warmth of a fire on a cool night. It also has a TV with cable, DVD, and WiFi for in-house entertainment. The futon in the living space pulls out to a queen-sized bed. The kitchen is fully equipped for being able to enjoy a home cooked meal even when away from home. Outside is a deck from which you can hear the cascading waters of the Big Thompson while cooking dinner on the BBQ.

This cabin is in the perfect location to enjoy all of Estes Park's beauty as well as its downtown life. Whether you are in town for a wedding, having a family reunion, or just wanting to get away, you will leave completely satisfied after having stayed at this cabin.

**Please no pets or smoking!!!!**

The location was awesome! So convenient! We had an amazing time in Estes park!! The only comment I’d say is the couch/futon was a little small.

Everything about our stay was perfect, could not ask for a better location to the town of Estes Park ( five minutes) or the park, five minutes. Even had 15 elk visit in the backyard.

Cute cabin, plenty of sleeping space and the mattresses are comfy. We went in October and saw Elk EVERYWHERE! Even in the yard of the neighbors cabin! Was such a cool place to stay and a great time of year to go.

The cabin was well equipped and very comfortable. When we had an issue with a gif outlet not working Alex responded quickly and resolved the issue. A large elk herd came through in the mornings and evenings and a mule deer with her twins also visited.

I love the location of the cabin. It's perfect it the National Park is your main priority. I loved that we didn't have to drive through town every time we wanted to go to the park but town is close also. It's very clean and it's nice to to have some supplies provided like laundry detergent, dish soap, paper towels, toilet paper & air freshner! The beds are comfortable as well! This was our 2nd time here and we will definitely be back! Oh & the Bull Elk outside our window on the morning we left was a great surprise!

Peaceful Getaway in a Beautiful Setting

Wonderful stay! The cabin was well-equipped for our family of four and set in a peaceful, relaxing location. While the main bedroom mattress wasn’t the most comfortable, the beautiful setting, access to RMNP and downtown, and the overall experience more than made up for it. A perfect spot to unwind.

Online description stated the cabin had a grill. I know a new law started about charcoal grills, but they could've had a gas grill. Other cabins had them. Also, the front porch light nor the outside side light didn't work. It was hard to see the keypad and walk the pathway to the car when leaving or returning after dark. Other than that, it was a great place to stay.

This cabin had everything we needed! Cozy and clean with all the amenities. Close to the RMNP entrance which worked out well for early morning hikes. Spent time reading by the river - very relaxing.One evening we experienced the company of 6 female elk and 4 babies who wandered up from the river and spent time grazing right outside of the cabin. Unforgettable! I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
