It was a cute place and clean but it could use some things in the kitchen like filters for the coffee pot, maybe some foil, salt and pepper. But overall a cute place for a quick stay and it was easy to find and the communication with the host was easy and quick responses.
The canyon river cabin was right on the road outside of Estes Park. It had cute rustic decorations, a full kitchen and a great porch to enjoy right by the river. Perfect for our evening after Rocky Mountain National Park.
Quiet, peaceful beautiful place to stay.
I loved staying in the river and listening to it during the night.
The cabin was very neat and clean.
I also like the fact it was out of town a little bit got away from the crowded areas.
We would go back and stay there again.
We loved our time spent at this cabin! Very clean, perfectly stocked for 2, and great fly fishing out back (on private property—so no one else was there). Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend getaway!
Cute small old motel at one time possibly. Has a leaky faucet in kitchen and mattress needs replacing. Nice and quiet even though it was on highway. Beautiful creek in back. Hard to find at first didn't know it was called Cole's .Riverside
We went for a long weekend. The location is great and the property was clean. We would go back for sure!

Nice but overpriced
Lovely cabin right on the river. For the price, though, we were disappointed by:
not enough gas in grill to cook hot dogs
only two forks in the kitchen?
no "one pager" explaining how to access wifi, TV or cooling fans
no extra blanket for cool evening temps
We enjoyed our stay. The traffic on nearby road was a bit noisy and the loveseat not super comfy but other than that it was great! The view of stream from back patio was nice!
Great location with the deck right on the Big Thompson. Took a video so my Mom could hear the water. My family has visited Estes for many years but it had been a long time since my last trip. The room was a perfect for for our needs. A place to rest, clean up after hikes etc. and run into town (3 miles) for meals etc. We found the cottage clean and quiet, a perfect spot to spend a few days in Estes!!
We are from Greeley and just came up for the night. We went downtown Estes for dinner then came back to the room. We sat in the hot tub under a completely clear sky! We could see every star! The sound of the river is very calming.
We did contact the owner. He got back to us in a matter of minutes! Very easy process and a great night away. We will be back!
Property was nice, clean, and convenient. There is no backyard access from the back exit. You have to walk around the property to get to the water. The deck furniture is outdated and needs to be replaced. There are other properties on the other side of the waterway, so there is no privacy on the back deck, as you are also directly next to your neighbors. The back does not lock securely, so do not bring anything valuable with you that you cannot take in your vehicle when you come and go. Property owner was easy to get a hold of and communicative.

A Toss Up
There were some great things and some not good at all things. Overall, the room was cozy, warm, well decorated, comfortable, and we loved the hot tub near the river. What we didn't like was: we were given no check-in directions so when we got there, we assumed there was an office. There was a room that seemed like a permanent residence, and the woman (Wendy?) there did come to the door... however, we were not greeted as she was on the phone (in a very loud, negative conversation with LOTS of swearing), and we were not given any directions. We tried the door to the room we thought was ours. Luckily it was unlocked and due to the pictures on the site, we knew this must be our room. At no time during our stay did Wendy greet us or even say hi. Though on the 2nd day, we did get to hear her again in another loud phone conversation were she dropped f-bombs in nearly every sentence. It was very disrespectful and rude.
The room was not overly clean. There were grapes on the floor. The light fixtures and fan are incredibly dusty and with plenty of cobwebs. You are right next to the highway, and you do hear cars all day and night.
Under other circumstances, this motel-like room would be a nice place to stay.
Also, be careful. We were charged the summer rate, even though we rented in December and the winter dates/rates are posted on their website.
We really enjoyed the hottub on the deck after driving all day. Thought the place was easy to find and was very clean. Cute rooms, perfect size for 2 of us and a dog. By far, though, the best feature was the great access to the beautiful creek in back. The only hiccup was out of the owner's control and that was a loud neighhbor. We would definitely come back .
Our stay at your cabin was not a comfortable time. With the current times it's hard to save money and get time off to take a vacation and relax from the everyday hustle and bustle of our lives.First of all, we didn't have two full days having to arrive at 4 pm and depart at 11am.Upon arrival we found the cabin hadnt been cleaned, wads of hair in bathroom shower & elsewhere. The jacuzzi water was dirty & cloudy. Old outdated bedding & mattress, with trash underneath it, my husband got bedbug bites. Partial lighting throughout cabin, no outdoor front light, glad we brought our flashlights! The smoke alarm kept going off during the night screaming FIRE! No latch for safety on back sliding door. Dirty bath towels. Few extremely outdated kitchen cooking pans & few super flimsy utensils. Lastly, The permanent neighbors across the river appear to be severely mentally challenged. They began yelling and screaming profanities every time we would go out to the deck to do anything, a very weird and uncomfortable situation.Because of these unacceptable disappointing experiences, we requested a refund for our stay and the rude owners scoffed and got angry at my husband.The pleasant description that is listed on your website is incorrect and misleading, far from what we experienced. I'd send some of the photos we took while there but they won't load. (We didnt get to take photos of the troubles, except the bedbug bites, bc my husband cleaned up before I even thought to take them.)
