With reliable WiFi, the ability to stream video meetings (or Netflix), you can do your work early in the day and then head out the door for a walk into RMNP. You may find that once you arrive with your groceries you may not need your car again for several days.
LOCATION. LOCATION. LOCATION. Still Waters Lodge offers a truly unique setting. Begin your day on the deck, sipping your morning coffee while listening to the soothing cascades of the Big Thompson River and gazing at the majestic continental divide. Situated on the western side of Estes Park, you can easily avoid any traffic by driving to the Beaver Meadows Entrance/Visitors Center of RMNP or taking a short walk into the wildlife hub of RMNP—Moraine Park (see map). Moraine Park is a popular area frequented by elk and mule deer, offering you an opportunity to witness wildlife in their natural habitat. During the summer, the RMNP shuttle bus stops at the Moraine Park Discovery Center & Museum, providing convenient access to various trailheads deeper within the park. No need to worry about finding a crowded parking spot at a trailhead! Another added perk is you can take a short walk directly into RMNP’s spectacular Moraine Park right from the cabin!

Still Waters Lodge offers a serene and relaxing stay, with the option to be as active as you desire on the numerous trails in RMNP. Nestled in a peaceful family community with private grounds, you can stroll around and enjoy the wildlife and picturesque scenery. The community is located adjacent to the Big Thompson River, so you won't miss the tranquil sounds of the cascading river from the deck. For the little ones, there's a newly built play area with a picnic spot, ensuring they have a great time too!
Inside Still Waters Lodge, you'll discover tasteful furnishings and a well-equipped space designed to make your stay both relaxing and enjoyable. The first floor features a newly remodeled master bedroom (queen bed) with a full bathroom, while the second floor accommodates two bedrooms that share a bathroom. One of the upstairs bedrooms boasts a queen bed, while the other serves as a fun bunk room with a queen bed and a twin bunk above. Each bedroom offers its own closet for your convenience.

Still Waters Lodge fulfilled that dream. While our piece of property is small it has a large history. There is a mineral claim on it from 1875. It was part of the Dunraven Estate. If you read the history of Estes Park you'll see how it all fits in.
