Much needed retreat!
This was simply a great fit for our family, and a great house for our group. My family came to Estes for a weeklong escape from our hectic lives, and we landed in the right spot! Lovely property, location was excellent for popping out for food, hiking, or shopping, and it was a surprisingly private feeling property. The hosts were incredibly kind, with exceptional communication, furnishing the kitchen with requested extras, sleds and traction/microspikes available as part of the rental, and two passes to the alpine coaster. The house was just right for our family, with two married couples and four other adults or near adults, we needed space to congregate and private spaces for everyone, this house delivered. The game room downstairs was well equipped, there was the downstairs living area and the upstairs living area plus all the rooms that gave everyone the space they needed to zone out with a movie, read a book, run a puzzle, and cook without ever feeling isolated or necessarily directly in someone's space. The upstairs fireplace situation was very cozy, and the furniture matched the space. Added bonus, wildlife was regularly in the yard, with elk, deer, and a flock of wild turkeys making regular appearances. Our hosts prepped the space for our Christmas stay and we really enjoyed the festive atmosphere they created for us. I'm thankful for our hosts and we very much enjoyed our time. Would absolutely book another Christmas time stay at this house.
