Breathtaking & Convenient

This was a family trip with seniors, children and adults all whom have different needs, and this property met every single one of them. The proximity to the main strip of Estes Park made getting around very simple. The views were incredible at the property and overall with seven people into everyone had their own space and no one felt crammed. This property is one of my favorites we’ve say at!

Great for family gatherings!

Beautiful scenery! Home larger than expected. Three families from Oregon, Ohio, and Colorado met a few days before the holidays to celebrate. We had a wonderful visit. The place was perfect. I would recommend it highly.

A week in the Rockies

Everything was exactly as described~ an amazing place for five couples to rest and recover each day after five days of hiking. So convenient of a drive to the park entrances. Spacious inside and out with amazing views, breeze and quiet. The home was fully equipped with everything we needed for the week. Absolutely wonderful.

Great house! I would recommend staying in it if you want lots of room and a beautiful location. I would actually give it 4 1/2 stars if it could. My only problems with the house is that it could use a better cleaning company especially in the kitchen. I turned on the oven and I am pretty sure someone was drying weed or baking with weed in it because it filled the house with the smell(I don’t mind that but some of my family didn’t). There was a lot of grease on the rack above the stove which was to hold things to get rid of a fire. counter intuitive to have a fire risk holding the things to put out a fire? Weird. There was also a smoke puller that moved up behind the stove that my husband put up and I’m pretty sure it hadn’t been cleaned for a year. Eee-gad. On the plus side in the kitchen, there were lots of stuff to make the dish I needed to for Christmas dinner at our family’s house in Estes. The fireplace and lighting in the house was great. I asked for there to be some Christmas decorations since we were there over xmas. I probably should have been more specific on this. They were very kind to put them throughout the house which was a lot of decor but it would have been better to have Christmas throw up in the living room & kitchen. lol. I appreciated them doing that for our family. I only have one last concern but it was more about a safety issue. There was a broken clock, lots of glass. Owner realtor wanted us to clean it up..nope. We loss use of 5% of house.
Beautiful fireplace! We loved the living room.
House is gorgeous!!
Got to see a whole herd of elk come down the road a couple of mornings. It was amazing.

Thank you for your feedback. We strive to provide a comfortable and welcoming experience for every guest, especially during the holidays. We have to consider all guests that use the home during the holidays. Communication was a big issue. You said you would clean up the glass, if you had told me differently, I would have been there to clean it up myself, even on Christmas Day. The odor must have been coming from someone or something else. All other issues were addressed. Your input helps us improve, and we truly value your perspective

We used this place as our home base for my daughter’s wedding immediate family. All adults – no parties or events were held on site.After we made our final payment, I received a note adding restrictions; a maximum of 3 cars in the driveway; No more than 10 people (we had 8). These were never mentioned in their VRBO Ad or by the property manager, only after receiving our final payment.On Thursday, the wedding day, the bridal party was preparing so more than 3 cars were in the driveway for a few hours (hair and make up ppl). I received a nasty text from the property manager threatening to call the sheriff because I had more than 3 cars in the driveway. She admitted driving by 3 times in 24 hrs to count cars. Later we determined that she had been spying on us all week. Driving by and stopping to count cars. She also admitted to having cameras at the house. Also, the house is poorly maintained: The entrance stairway railing is unstable and detaching from its base; Large weeds were blocking the stairwell; Several windows were inoperable; They merely put a sticker on the window saying Do Not Use; Plumbing issues; Screen door off track; the house was dirty; layers of dust.I came to learn after departing that Estes Park had instituted restrictions on VRBO house rentals in the prior year. The Ad nor the manager ever told us - only after seeing cars did she threatened to call the sheriff without warning or discussion.Rent elsewhere – you don’t need this nightmare

It is appreciated to receive reviews, good or bad. I wanted to point out that the rules that were mentioned in the access information are stated in the description of the home in the listing and in the rules section in the listing. Always reach out to me and discuss what is being planned and I can verify that it is OK or not. I attempted to reach out multiple times without a response so that was why the Sherif was mentioned in a third correspondence. Communication was the biggest issue. Never once was I contacted before or after the home was booked. If we are not contacted for issues regarding any problems with the home, plumbing, stair railing, in-operatable windows? Not communicating with us does not give us the chance to render the issues. Yes, I had driven by the home, actually multiple time, its my job to make sure rules are followed and guests are being honest.

WOW! One of the cleanest, classiest, comfortable places we’ve ever had the pleasure of renting! The house was impeccable. The decorations were classy, not overdone or tacky. The kitchen! Some places have second hand pots/pans, etc. Very nice plates, silverware, and sharp knives (again, hit or miss at some places). Even my husband said the toilet paper was “the soft kind”! Ha! The beds were very comfortable, nice towels…the whole place was a winner. The deck was fabulous…had coffee each morning overlooking the mountains. 5 adults and 2 kids with so much space! It’s a nice set up…basement bedroom (adult child), main floor bedroom (myself and husband) and 3 upstairs bedrooms for daughter and hubby and 2 young grandkids. Perfect! Communication with Renee was instant. Very close to RMNP and shopping…very nice shops along the main drag of Elkhorn St. Really a top notch home and we travel quite a bit to compare.

Great location, amazing views, quiet, roomy, perfect house for our family vacation. We took the whole family of 9 to Este Park and rented this awesome house. It was perfect. 3 families with kids - 2 kitchens and 2 laundry rooms . 5 bedrooms and 3 1/2 bathrooms everyone had their own privacy and enough room to move around. We enjoyed our evening sunset views on the porch. The kids loved the private kid room. Great memories.
