Newly renovated 1928 Cottage located just a short walk to downtown Estes Park! Everything is New! You'll know you are in the mountains with the cozy mountain decor while still providing all the comforts of home!
PLEASE NOTE:
- This is a non-smoking, no pet property.... Adult(s) renting cottage must be 25 years or older. Child 16 years or older with an adult is welcome.
- This cottage is located fairly close to W. Wonderview Avenue – which can be a very busy road with traffic heading in/out of the Rocky Mountain National Park North entrance. You will hear traffic noise. It is a great spot if you enjoy watching cars & bikes pass by while sitting under the covered porch.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enjoy your evenings relaxing in the cozy living room enjoying a glass of wine in front of the fireplace (gas fireplace unit is controlled by a wall switch! ambiance on.. ambiance off). The patio door provides ample natural light with views of the Lumpy Ridge (mountains).
The kitchen allows for a full range of meal preparation by including pots, fry pans, pizza pans, cookie sheets, casserole dishes and all the 'gadgets' necessary to make most any meal. Appliances include NEW stove/oven, refrig, microwave, dishwasher, disposal, coffee maker, toaster & crock pot!
This cottage is connected! WiFi & Streaming Service are provided. There is also a BlueRay DVD Player & a small collection of DVDs. There are two Flat Screen TVs throughout this cottage - with the Living Room being a Smart TV - providing ability to log into your own movie accts (Netflix/Amazon/etc.) or watch YouTube Videos, etc.!
The Queen bedroom features a new bed, walk-in closet, luggage racks, wall mounted TV, ceiling fan above bed, reading lights & night stands with clocks. All pillows & linens are new and linens are 'fragrance free/dye free'.
The forced air natural gas furnace provides comfort throughout during the colder days/nights. The two ceiling fans (dining area & Queen bedroom) help circulate the air during a warm summer day. The Water Heater is an on-demand unit providing endless hot water.
Have your morning coffee on the front patio or enjoy comfortable seating on the back covered porch while viewing the mountains or watching for elk & deer. This cottage is a wonderful place to enjoy your Estes Park vacation!

About the host
Hosted by Nancy & Ken Kratky
The owners, Nancy and Ken Kratky, both grew up in Eastern Nebraska. In 1996 they moved to Colorado, got married in Hidden Valley, Colorado and honeymooned in Estes Park. In 2001 they returned to Nebraska and stayed eleven years. During that time they continued to return to Colorado multiple times per year, always visiting Estes Park, and always casually looking at real estate property with the dream of ownership some day.
In December of 2011, while on a vacation to celebrate their December birthdays, they came across a quaint little cottage in a historic little area for sale. It needed lots of attention, but they saw it's potential, and knew they could give it new life to fulfill their dream of a rustic mountain get-away. They put in an offer and the offer was accepted on Ken's Birthday! It became a 'labor of love'! And, thus, BLACK BEAR COTTAGE (Lazy Bear Cottage's big brother) has now been a vacation rental property (VRBO #644057) since 2014!
Then, in the Spring of 2015, they purchased another cottage to renovate to give them purpose and to take their minds off of medical issues. Working very part-time on the cottage it was eventually completed, and thus, LAZY BEAR COTTAGE is now the little sister to Black Bear Cottage...
We love them equally !!
