Fantastic location to town and RMNP

Cute wooded cabin minutes from downtown Estes Park and the National Park. Super clean, fully stocked kitchen utensils and appliances, tons of extra personal items/cleaning and bathroom supplies just in case. Would definitely recommend and return!

A Perfect Stay Near Rocky Mtn National Park

We TOTALLY enjoyed our stay at Drake's place. Jesse was so accessible for any questions that we had. The cabin was just the right size for our 7 day visit. It was sufficiently stocked with the dishes and cookware to prepare our meals. Another wonderful benefit about the location of Drake's Place was it was outside of the construction happening in Estes Park and just minutes from the entry to Rocky Mountain National Park. We loved our visit and would highly recommend staying at Drake's Place.

Amazing area for wildlife

Our first morning we were greeted by a herd of elk at our back door, not sure if it could have started any better! The cabin was nice, clean and obviously in a great location, it could just use a few more small creature comforts such as end tables and small additions. I would absolutely recommend Drake's place, especially during the elk rut. I would stay every year in late September if it was possible.

Simple, yet Beautiful

It's a simple little cabin, but it's absolutely adorable. Clean and wonderful stay. The owner was wonderful to work with. Was fast and efficient. I have nothing negative to say. It's incredibly close to the RMNP entrance. My husband and I were able to celebrate our 3rd anniversary in peace, surrounded by beautiful nature. Would rate 12/10 if possible!

Perfect for our family

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Colorado! The cabin was perfect for our family of 4. It's an ideal space with plenty of room to roam outdoors! The kitchen and bathroom were thoughtfully stocked, and the instructions on space use were clear and very simple. The main bedroom was comfortable and clean, and the pull-out sofa was great for the boys. The cabin is tucked back into a neighborhood off a ridge, and we saw wildlife daily (mule deer and turkey). It's a few minutes from downtown and just down the road from groceries and gas. It was an excellent location for going into town or heading toward RMNP. We also visited the YMCA and used their fly fishing outfit.
