Discover the nostalgic tranquility of our charming 75-year-old "Ranger Home" in Rocky Mountain National Park. Perfect for small families, friends, nature lovers, and daytime adventurers, this cozy cabin offers peaceful views of Lumpy Ridge and convenient access to Estes Park.
Charming Accommodations: Originally a one-room “Ranger Home”, this cabin now includes a spacious 400 sqft family room with a 65” LED TV (streaming access only), rustic décor, and comfortable seating for family game nights. The fully equipped kitchen features seating for 4, a new glass-top stove, full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and basket-style drip coffee maker, along with essential cooking supplies and basic spices.
The main bedroom features an ensuite full bath and a queen bed, while the second bedroom has a full-size bed, perfect for kids. A full-size sleeper futon in the family room provides additional sleeping space. Enjoy fresh linens, clean towels, and complimentary toiletries.
Stunning Outdoor Spaces: Relax on the sandstone patio with partial views of Lumpy Ridge and Twin Owls across the green valley of McGregor Ranch. Enjoy outdoor dining with a private gas grill and seating, perfect for wildlife watching. Savor your morning coffee or an afternoon beverage on the front deck, directly accessible from the main living area.
Nature and Adventure: Nestled at the end of a quiet street, bordered by a forest once part of RMNP and now part of the Historic MacGregor Ranch conservation easement, the cabin is just a 3-minute drive or a 0.8-mile walk from downtown Estes Park. Access numerous scenic trails, including Gem Lake Trail, just 1 mile north of the cabin, and enjoy regular sightings of elk, deer, squirrels, hummingbirds, wild turkeys, and more. The cabin is close to the Fall River and Beaver Meadows entrances (approximately 4.5 miles) and the Lumpy Ridge Trailhead parking area (1.4 miles away).
Convenience and Comfort: Enjoy the convenience of a free in-home full-size washer and dryer, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a pack-n-play for young children (available upon request).
Important Details:
* Enjoy the privacy and comfort of our charming duplex rental, complete with its own private entrances and exclusively private living spaces.
* Parking is limited to 2 vehicles in the provided off-street area, as per Town of Estes regulations.
* In support of Local Authorities concern for wildfire safety, open fires, charcoal grills, and wood-burning fireplaces are prohibited.
Escape to the Historic “Ranger Home” and experience the perfect blend of nostalgic charm and modern comfort. Book your unforgettable Rocky Mountain getaway today!

About the host
Hosted by Trent

Hello! I am a local STR owner here in the Estes Park area, but I also manage Estes Valley Vacation Rentals. Our company was formed when 3 local STR owners (Jeff, Kevin, myself) had enough of poor national property management experiences, and decided to form our own local company that focuses on top quality service for our owners and their guests.
Thank you for your interest in our property and company and I look forward to hosting you.
Regards,
Trent
