About this property

Sundance - 2 miles to Rocky Mountain National Park



The Shupe Family would like to welcome you to our mountain home we call Sundance! (Lic#6180) (20-NCD0173) Our goal is to make your vacation as memorable as possible.

The home is a 1600 SF 3 bed, 2.5 bath, modern, mountain townhome that is half of a duplex. The other half is also available as a rental should you have a larger group (VRBO# 1541794). The open concept living area has tons of light and large beautiful windows that invite the outdoors in.

The back patio has a nice patio set, picnic table, umberella, propane grill, and gas fire table. From the patio, the views look across dedicated open space toward a mix of majestic white capped mountains and foothills. The elk and deer love the adjacent meadow and are seen grazing frequently!

There's a nice master retreat with a king bed on the main level with 2 more bedrooms and a bath upstairs. The second bedroom has a king bed that can be converted into two twins and the third bedroom has a queen bed, twin bunk beds and a twin futon.

Though the home has two HD Smart TVs and Wi-Fi it is also loaded with board games, cards, and children's books and toys.

This home is located on the west side of town, very near the main entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park and is just 2 miles from downtown Estes Park.

Thank you for viewing our listing! We hope to welcome you to your next Estes Park vacation!

Very nice property - my only negative is the property is close to a major road so there is traffic noise.

Hi Tammy Thanks for the review. I'm sorry that you found the road noise to be disturbing. You are the first guest who has mentioned it in over 200 reviews! Not sure if it was a busier day than normal, but we have never noticed it ourselves as it is not considered a major road. So sorry if it took away from your vacation. Cheers Gregg & Cindi

Great space and well equipt

We spent 4 nights and loved the space. Clean, spacious, quiet (even with a family in the adjoining unit). The owners were very friendly and helpful with suggestions for local hikes and and even welcome goodies. Only reason I gave one fewer stars on the location was the close proximity to a fairly busy road and the homes close by. From the photos it looked like place was more isolated. Overall, loved the place and it had absolutely everything!

Colorado Family Vacation

When we saw the listing on VRBO, we liked it right away- new build and great view. We were not disappointed as the duplex was excellent along with the awesome mountain view. Liz was very communicative, accommodating and had everything prepared for our stay. It only took a couple minutes to get to town, and less than 5 minutes to get to the Beaver Meadow entrance of RMNP, We would definitely stay there again. Thank you Liz!

beautiful house, excellent owners

The house has beautiful views of the mountains and wild life is right out the back deck (saw mule deer, bunnies, and even a lynx!). The owners were excellent, very accommodating to having small children (even made a special trip to the house to bring an extra pack n play). Great extra space for kids to play with great toys. Kitchen had everything you could need. Location is quiet and 5 minutes from downtown. We will definitely stay here next time we visit.

Perfect space for families, perfect location!

This property feels brand new with extremely nice finishings, is very well stocked with every comfort of home, and is set up perfectly with multiple spaces for kids and adults. The garage was set up as a play room for the kids! Each room had plenty of blankets and toiletries (very nice quality soaps). The location is truly 2 min drive from Estes and very close (10-15 min max) drive to both the Beaver Meadow Entrance and the Fall River entrance to RMNP. My husband, two young kids and I all loved it and will gladly return!

Estes Park Perfection

I can not say enough wonderful things about this VRBO! So cute and clean! Lots of luxury items to make us feel welcome and spoiled. We had a hiccup getting into to VRBO, but it was not the owner’s issue. (Not great internet to download information.) Contacted Cindi and she quickly responded giving us the information we needed. The view was wonderful and a great location to the entrance of RMNP! I highly recommend staying here!!!

Gorgeous Townhouse

This duplex was super clean and very well stocked. It is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We sat in the backyard every night to watch the sunset in the mountains. The view was fabulous! It was an easy drive to town and surrounding sights. We enjoyed our stay, very much. Our only concern was, that we thought it was a house and we’re shocked to find out it was a duplex. I don’t think it was clear on website. Never the less, we weren’t bothered by the other tenants and we would come stay again!

Excellent!

What a beautiful property. Every detail was well thought out. From the best stocked kitchen I have ever seen at a VRBO, fans, tons of extra linens and towels, hooks everywhere (for towels, jackets…love that) to the little details like magazines, brochures, hiking books, goodies left for us, laundry detergent, dish soap and of course the beautiful view! I could go on and on. I kept telling my husband, I can’t believe they have this and I can’t believe they have that! It was perfect! I have stayed in many many VRBO’s before and have never left a review. I just had to this time! Such a great experience, can’t wait to go back!

Wow! Terra! Thanks for the fantastic review. We are humbled... We ourselves are foodies, so a well stocked kitchen is a must. We've also traveled all over the world and stayed at short term rentals, so we know how frustrating it is not to have what you need while you're away from home. We try to stock everything and more for a comfortable stay. Hope you'll come visit again the next time you're in beautiful Colorado. Thanks again for your very kind words! Cheers ~ Cindi Shupe

Winter paradise

We use VRBO a few times a year to travel as a family. All three of my children voted this their favorite place we've ever stayed. Everything you could want on the inside to feel cozy and pampered on vacation, with all the nature you could want right at your fingertips. We enjoyed one day hiking and one day sledding. My only complaint is that our vacation was too short! We hope to come back again for a longer stay right here at Sundance!

Our favorite vacation rental

We’ve stayed in many vacation properties over the past 15 years, and Sundance is by far one of our favorites! We wanted for nothing — everything we could have possibly needed was not only accessible but in fantastic condition. The home was impeccably clean and comfortable, and the views from the back patio are breathtaking. RMNP and downtown EP are within easy driving distance. We enjoyed a glorious week, and we cannot wait to return!

Beautiful View, Perfect Location!

I cannot say enough how wonderful this property was! The location was absolutely perfect and the home was beautiful. Just a short drive to Rocky Mountain National park, and also close to downtown Estes Park. The Mountain View of the back patio was breathtaking, and you could tell the owners put thought into each part of the home. My kids loved the playroom in the garage, and had a blast playing in the small room, or as they called it the tiny house, in the kids’ bedroom. They had bedtime books, plenty of toys, and a fully stocked kitchen. They even had outlet covers for people with small children! We would absolutely recommend staying here on your next trip to Estes Park!

About the host

Hosted by Gregg & Cindi Shupe (owners)

Host profile image

Gregg and I are small business owners, who raised 5 kids and are now enjoying our 8 grand kids (all 4 yrs and younger with 2 more on the way!). We live in Greeley, CO , but have always wanted to get back up to Estes since I lived and worked there in high school. Because family and business keep us in the Valley, we thought The Getaway would be the perfect compromise.

We're happy to be able to share our home with you and hope that you will make many precious memories with your family and friends!

Why they chose this property

We love the fact that the town home backs up to open space, so that despite being near other homes we feel like we have a private, quiet place in the mountains, especially when we're out on our back porch.

What makes this property unique

One of the best things about The Getaway is that we see so much wildlife! Elk, deer, bobcats, bears, chipmunks and sometimes moose! We hope that you'll experience some of the wildlife as well - just be careful! They do bite!
