Beautiful Home minutes away from Rocky Mountain National Park

The home is beautiful! It is minutes away from town and from Rocky Mountain National Park. We loved the hot tub and saw wildlife every morning. The road is steep but it snowed 4-5 inches while we were there and we had no problems. Plenty of blankets and towels. The only downside was that the power went out one evening. We were texted that a local representative would reach out and we never heard from anyone.

Loved this place. We saw wild turkey, rabbits and hummingbirds all from the porch. The 360 view is phenomenally close to nature and calming.

As listed!! Enjoyed our stay

The parking was a little odd but they mention that in the listing. Very informative about the rental. Love the pool Table and hot tub. Neighbors were a little close for my liking but they were not seen or heard. Love the deck and the view. Creek was great! The location was perfect. 2 minutes from the RMNP gate that was not crowded at all during this time of year. I was very pleased with this property!!

Retirement Celebration

Clean, quiet, right on Fall River so I could hear the water. Everything I was hoping for...except: The cupboards are very high, and I am very short, and although I looked, there wasn't a stepstool to be found. The road was a rutted from recent rain, but was repaired the 2nd day. Keeping the house the right temperature was tricky at best. Windows/curtains open/close, fan running... furnace at night? Overall, a nice stay, though.

Fantastic Mountain Escape

We enjoyed the home. Used the deck a lot: grill, hot tub, coffee in the morning with the mountain view and peaceful sound of the creek only yards away. We could see elk braise in the field across the creek and a mom and baby were eating next door on our last evening. Enjoyed the location- close to town but not right in town. Communication with rental agency was helpful.

Beautiful spot on the river

Only thing would be to have a better signage to the entrance to the residential road from the main Fall River Rd. and fix the dirt road without many large and small pot holes. It also would have been nice to have a dishwasher. Otherwise, it was a great place with great fishing right in the back yard.

Relaxing River House

The sound of the river, and mountain views are extremely relaxing. We enjoyed the hot tub with views of the river and the mountains. The house is the perfect size for a family. The kids enjoyed their rooms and the pool table. There is no A/C, but the host provides fans to keep the air moving. In July, opening the windows and using the fans was just right. The house is less than a minute from the Fall River entrance to RMNP, and just a few minutes to downtown shopping. We enjoyed both. The insulation in the bedrooms was surprisingly good, as you could not hear through the walls. We agree with the host that an AWD vehicle is best. The road down to the house is steep in places and fairly rough. We had a 4-wheel drive truck. In the summer it is not bad, however I do see how the road could be worse in the winter. There was enough hot water for a family of 4. Plenty of room for everyone. The host provides supplies, and a Safeway is just a few minutes from the house. Unlike other reviews, we had no interaction with the neighbors. However, we were quiet, and respected the tranquility of the mountains. We highly recommend this house as a relaxing location close to attractions. The views are amazing!

Beautiful family cabin

We arrived to a snow storm and although we had problems finding the road to the cabin it was plowed the next day. The cabin housed our family of 2 adults and five kids very well. The view from the porch and through the windows is amazing. And the sound of the River is so peaceful. We saw wildlife daily and enjoyed the stars while relaxing in the hottub after our day hikes. Kitchen had plenty of cooking utensils and the extra blankets where fantastic on the cold nights while we watched some of the many dvds that where provided. Would definitely stay again. Be aware there is a lot of construction between the cabin and Estes so waits can be long.

Snowshoeing trip

Really enjoyed the views, hot tub and pool table. Finding it was difficult because we can in at night and Google maps takes you to the cabin above. Might be helpful to have a sign or distinguishable marker up at the top on the road. Oven glass was cracked and had duct tape on it so glad we didn’t preheat the oven before opening it and inspecting. Otherwise was a gray stay and easy to get to RMNP and town.

Very clean and secluded

The property was extremely clean! We were a mile outside of the national park and saw elk walking around the neighborhood. Very spacious. The only thing I would suggest is that if you’re going in winter months, please be comfortable driving in the ice and snow as this property is on a single dirt road and steep. Definitely recommend this home!

Great location, not so clean

We loved being close to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. The sound of the river at night was fantastic to fall asleep. The cleanliness left much to be desired. Upon arrival there was a strong odor and we discovered dog pee throughout the home. The hot tub did not have enough chlorine to the point the water was green. By the end we all left with congestion and even a rash.

Nice quiet get away

We received a lot of communication from VRBO prior to our visit, so we were very well prepared. There ae close neighbors at this property, yet it was still very quiet and relaxing. There is wildlife in the area, a great deck over looking the river and from the hot tub if you wish. The home is very much like you should expect from a mountain property, a bit dated, yet very clean with all the needed amenities. The property is only a couple miles from town, so very easy to go out to a restaurant, grocery store, ATV'ing as well as RMNP is less than a mile away where we enjoyed a picnic and hiking. Awesome mountain get away at an awesome property and VRBO was very easy to deal with, highly recommend!

Less than thrilled

We have stayed at several different condos/houses in Estes, unfortunately this was not our favorite. It is on the river, but the grass & weeds are so tall you can’t even get to river. The neighbors are less than thrilled about this property being a rental & voiced their concerns to us . We felt a bit awkward & didn’t want to spend much time there during the day. We would not book this one again.

Overall a great place with beautiful views

This property has absolutely stunning views! We spent a lot of time on the patio hot tubbing and grilling. While we enjoyed our time here, I’ll address two things that resulted in this being 4 stars. First was that most rentals I’ve stayed in provide the bare minimum of shampoo/conditioner, coffee, etc. Do not expect any of that here. The second is that it is 100% apparent that the neighbors don’t want this rental here on their private drive. We got along with them fine but just expect some comments to be made throughout your stay.

Nice Location - low on luxury

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin could use some serious updating. There is no dishwasher, and the remodeled bathroom has a shower floor flush with the rest of the bathroom floor -- so you can't take a shower without water getting all over the floor - it eventually drains, but poor design. The kitchen resources need a lot of help -- old plastic cups and dishes and not much cookware. The only other negative is that the family room has very little comfortable seating and cannot accommodate more than four people. On the other hand, the hot tub is awesome, elk and wild turkey in the yard is awesome, the pool table is awesome, and four miles to RMNP is awesome. We would stay again if some of the updates mentioned above were done. You'll enjoy your stay, but nothing even moderately luxurious about the place.
