Great location if Exploring RMNP is your goal

We are two 75+ travelers who were coming for there full days of hiking. The cabin was incredibly located near the Park entrance and had groceries and restaurants near by so all we had to do was settle in, lace on our hiring shoes and get going.

Peaceful and Convenient Location

The cabin was very clean, nicely appointed and accommodating to a family staying with their dog. The space is quiet and peaceful, and conveniently located with a short drive to everything in and around Estes Park. It was pretty cool too having wild elk pass through the property.

Cozy cottage

We absolutely love this cozy cottage in Estes Park! This was our third time staying here, and it just keeps getting better. The location is perfect—just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park and close to town, yet peaceful and quiet. One of the best parts? Elk wandered through the yard every single day—it felt like a little slice of mountain magic. The cottage is always clean, comfortable, and has everything we need for a relaxing getaway. It truly feels like a home away from home. We’ll definitely be back again!

Pleasant Stay

There was a problem with the initial cabin we had booked, upon arrival I called and the owners/managers were very prompt and helpful about rectifying the situation. Cabins could use a little more cleaning and the beds are a little uncomfortable, but overall a good stay I would more than likely return.

It’s a small cabin but there is plenty of room for two adults. We didn’t cook but the kitchen was well equipped. Comfortable bed and good pillows. RMNP is very close so we were able to come back mid-day to relax and go back to the park in the afternoon. Great location.

Perfect little cabin

The Sheriff's House was the perfect little cabin. It had everything I needed for a cozy stay in Estes Park. The cabin is situated in a quiet neighborhood and is close to Rocky Mountain National Park and a short distance from grocers, local restaurants and the best scenic coffee house, Coffee on the Rocks. Elk visited the cabin grounds most every day, which made for a special, peaceful getaway. I will definitely stay at the Sheriff's House when I return to Estes Park.

Low key and cozy

Cabin is small and cozy. Says it sleeps 4 but Iwouldnt recommend more than 2 people overnighting there. We had 2 adults and 2 small dogs; I cannot imagine what it would be like with 4 adults inside! The setting was pleasant. Deer and wild turkeys visited casually. Keep your dogs on a leash.It was fairly quiet but for traffic on the adjacent street and neighboring barking dogs. Cabin was clean. Kitchen items were provided. . Having had a stroke earlier, it would have been beneficial to have a shower chair and grab bars. I was happy to see it was a walk-in shower which wasn't specified in the marketing info.I selected this cabin based on photos showing no front steps and being one story.Brought our own shower chair and suction cup grab bars.

Adorable cabin

I loved staying at the Sheriff’s House with my partner the past couple of days! The cabin is quite small but suited our needs perfectly. The sofa bed/couch is a little uncomfortable to sit on, but it was very cute. Nice to have a fully functional kitchen for meals. The provided dish ware and toiletries were more than adequate; the only thing missing was a sponge to do dishes with. It would have been nice to have a small broom and dust pan just to clean up dirt that is inevitably tracked in due to the dirt road. So nice to get away for a couple of days and I would definitely stay here again!

3 days in Estes

It was fine. Need a rug inside the front door for boots and shoes. Used an old towel I had for the dog. Directions for the TV, etc would be helpful, as well as a stopper for the kitchen sink(hard to do dishes). Didn't have a coffee pot, but someone dropped one off shortly after I called.
