We loved sitting out on the porch and listening to the water rush by. Beds were super comfortable. Beautiful area. Quick drive to Estes Park/RMNP. Would stay again. WiFi is good but be aware no cell service.

Absolutely gorgeous property. We loved sitting by the river and having coffee on the upper deck. The guys loved that they could fish in the river first thing in the morning, and I loved sitting on the yoga deck, listening to the river while reading. Great vacation! We hope you be back next year!

Amazing.

The cabin was extremely clean and cozy. You can hear the river from the master bedroom making for an amazing night of sleep. This is the perfect place if you’re looking for a quiet getaway. Estes Park is a very scenic 30 minute drive away and gives you access to everything you would need.

Awesome Cabin

This cabin was awesome! Super cozy, beautiful drive, wonderful scenery. Close proximity to Rocky Mountain National Park. A perfect little get away spot in my opinion. the owners were great, our wifi went down part way through the trip and I had to reach out to them. They were very responsive and got a solution for us quickly.

Magical

Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven. The rocky, burbling creek is the selling point of this property. We spent most of our free time on the patio next to the water. The communication from the hosts is excellent with very clear instructions, The home has everything you need and we were comfortable. We would definitely stay again!

Great Mountain Getaway

This is a perfect place to stay if you want to relax and enjoy nature. The cabin had everything we needed- well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and indoor and outdoor living spaces. It was also extremely clean and safe for two women traveling alone. We loved being able to walk out and hang out by the river. We had a few polar plunges after some amazing hikes. Very convenient location if you want to go to RMNF, Estes Park and other trails. I highly recommend.

Perfect place to get away

The A frame was simply magical! Clean and well stocked, the property was the perfect get away. The national park is a beautiful short 35 minute drive away. Coming back to the house and relaxing after a day in the park was the perfect ending to the day. It is simply delightful to sit on the porch and hear the rushing water. We will definitely be coming back to this charming paradise in the woods! Can’t recommend enough❤️

Fantastic getaway

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house is neat, clean and uncluttered. The remote control fireplace on those cold evenings was so warm and inviting. Listening to the river, while lying in bed, was one of my most favorite parts of our stay! The river is beautiful. We enjoyed our coffee there most mornings. The location of the home is perfect. It’s far enough away from any hustle and bustle, yet close enough to the small, cute town of Lyons to get groceries. The drive to the property is gorgeous! We enjoyed this charming house and would recommend this property to our friends!
