About this property

Unique A-Frame! Just 1.5 mi to Estes & RMNP entrance

City of Estes Park Registration 3033. Actual address is 2415 Wild Bear Way, Estes Park.

Why stay in the same old cabin or condo when you can stay in our beautiful, clean and unique A-Frame surrounded by trees and abundant with wildlife.

The location of this home is perfect for your Estes vacation. It is located in a very quiet collection of a few cabins about a 15 minute hike into Rocky Mountain National Park or the YMCA property and a 1.5 mile drive to Downtown or the Beaver Meadows entrance into RMNP.

You will have a marvelous Rocky Mountain vacation in this clean, quiet, fully appointed vacation home. We have two bedrooms upstairs. The master bedroom has a queen bed and a balcony where you can hear the Big Thompson River through the trees. The second bedroom has a full size bed. Downstairs is tastefully decorated with cabin style furniture with a pull-out queen and pull-out twin bed. Downstairs is great for kids to sleep in while the grown-ups sleep quietly upstairs.

We have a newer remodeled full kitchen w/ gas stove, dishwasher and microwave, plenty of plates as well as pots and pans. We also have a full sized washer and dryer too.

You can relax and read a book by the wood-burning stove, watch DVD's on the TV (we have a large selection of DVD's stocked), play classic Atari video games or sit on the front or back porches and watch the elk, deer, bears, foxes, coyotes, wild turkeys, rabbits, hummingbirds etc. that are frequently seen on the property.

If you want to hike, this is the location for you. You can hike into Rocky Mountain National Park along the picturesque boulder strewn Big Thompson River and be in the Moraine Park area (prime fishing and elk viewing area) in about 15 minutes (accessed through the corner of the YMCA property). You can also hike along Glacier Creek for more fishing and beautiful trails. The YMCA has numerous trails where mountain biking is allowed. We are close to quite a few restaurants, shopping, horseback riding, fishing, miniature golf and all that Estes has to offer on Highway 66 (Tunnel Rd) into downtown Estes.

We had a wonderful time! The host was very helpful and responsive. The cabin was well equipped and had plenty of games for the kids. We saw Elk and Mule deer outside the cabin every day which was the highlight of our trip. We would definitely come back to visit again!

This was the second time my son and I stayed at the A-frame. We love it here! It’s so cute, with a large kitchen area that is well stocked with everything one might need. Morning coffee on the deck is my happy place! The location is perfect, too. We hiked to Moraine Park in RMNP from here and enjoyed the fall colors. We were also close to our favorite restaurant - Rock Inn Mountain Tavern. We look forward to returning!

Beautiful home in a PERFECT location if you are wanting to explore Rocky Mountain National Park. A hidden gem honestly! The house was clean and had some basic necessities (dish soap, laundry detergent, etc.) so that was nice we didn’t have to buy those things at the store during our stay. I’d highly recommend to anyone who is wanting to stay in the area!

This little cabin was the perfect landing place while exploring RMNP. The inside was cute & cozy. We enjoyed the open area between the kitchen & living room which was nice for socializing while prepping dinners. The wood stove was awesome & kept the main floor super warm. Communication with the host was quick & responsive. Star gazing was 10/10.A couple things to consider if you’re looking to book: walls are fairly thin & the doors on the bed rooms are folding accordian doors. We had no complaints & enjoyed our stay!

Property was clean and location is stellar. Just minutes to RMNP. Directions and access was clear, and pictures and set up of the rooms is accurate. Bathroom and laundry are on the lower level. Everything we needed in the kitchen and more.No curtains in back bedroom made privacy an issue, and panels were missing from the shades in the lower level. Towels were also okay, but could be nicer and newer.

It is a very nice cabin. We used the wood stove to make us comfortable in the evenings. Good heating is also available. We enjoyed our stay here. Deer and bear crossed near the cabin. If you book time slots to rmnp you can enjoy the beautiful national park. I like best the trail from bear lake to the higher lakes. Very nice is going to the gravel road/ fall river road to alpin station. Thank you

Country hideaway next to the YMCA

The A-Frame was warm and cozy even though we were there during a really cold time. We enjoyed the use of the washer and dryer prior to heading home so there wasn't so much to catch up on after vacation.

The cabin was cozy, even in the negative temperatures. The location was beautiful and quiet, and we were able to go to the RMNP daily to play in the snow and explore. The stairs were a little treacherous and shaky, but that would be my only complaint. Great little A-frame

About the host

Hosted by STEPHEN VELASCO

Host profile image
A lover of hidden gems, funky houses, groovy music, trails that lead to nowhere, dogs of any shape or size, misfits, and jeeps.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this house the moment we saw it. We have always loved Estes Park, and wanted our own little piece of it to enjoy. We love being able to easily hike into the park. The wildlife in the immediate area is abundant. The balcony off the bedroom is fantastic for sitting outside with a cup of coffee. We have always loved the unique look of an A-Frame. It's like owning a Harley or an Airstream. Why have a home like everyone else!

What makes this property unique

Walk into the RMNP Morraine Park area. Walk trails to the YMCA, past rushing water. The Rock Inn Mountain Tavern is a great place to go have a beer and sometimes catch live music and is just down the road.
