Blue Jay Bungalow is 1 mile to the Beaver Meadows entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park and 2 miles to downtown Estes Park.

This quaint little cabin is the picture of tranquility and simplicity. Blue Jay Bungalow provides the perfect launching pad for all of your Rocky Mountain adventures! Tucked away in a neighborhood of family-friendly cabins, it gives the feel of an "old school" Estes Park vacation. Surrounded by rock outcroppings and tall pines, just minutes from the Rocky Mountain National Park entrance, you'll love the mountain setting of this cabin. Blue Jay Bungalow will charm you from the moment you drive up.

Instantly feel a sense of relaxation as you enter the screened-in porch, which will tempt you to put down your bags and begin your vacation that very instant! You won't have to worry about traffic as the kids roam free and explore the area. Have a seat on the porch and admire the awesome view of Longs Peak, the "14er" crown jewel of Rocky Mountain National Park.

Step into the family room, which features a warming electric fireplace, perfect for taking the chill off cool mountain nights. The cushy Queen sleeper sofa provides an extra sleeping spot for your family or friends. A flat-screen TV provides entertainment for your vacation.

The kitchen is small but efficient and well-stocked for cooking your vacation meals. A small breakfast table provides space for four.

Head outside the back door and you step onto a nice sized deck where a grill and large table is perfect for summer barbecues. There is an extra picnic table off the deck.

On the other side of the living room, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms. One bedroom has a King bed, a large closet, a dresser and a great view of Longs Peak. The second bedroom features a Queen bed, a dresser, and a hardwood floor. While this room does not have a closet, there are hooks on the wall as you enter the bedroom and a convenient luggage rack.

A full-size bathroom, with a tub/shower combo and a large mirror over the sink, sits behind the family room across from the second bedroom.

There is not a washer or dryer in the cabin, but a laundromat is nearby.

Awesome mountain cabin in Estes

My son and I had a great staycation in Estes and really enjoyed the Blue Jay Bungalow. It was the perfect size and had everything we needed. I loved my mornings on the porch with the view of Longs Peak. The location was great, too. Close to town but far enough away to have peace and quiet. I would stay here again!

Hi Aram, Thanks for your review. Blue Jay Bungalow is a quaint mountain cabin and we hope that you enjoyed your stay. We are definitely in the mountains here and Blue Jay is no exception. Blue Jay is located in one of Estes Park's most charming and old timey neighborhoods with magnificent views in to Rocky Mountain National Park. We are very sorry of the dirt road was disappointing for you, but we do hope you will come back and stay with us again here at SkyRun Rocky Mountain.
