Drake, Colorado
22-Zone3201
Isolated enough for peace & quiet, but close enough to Rocky Mountain National Park and Loveland.
Located on 4 acres, this cabin features 3 bedrooms (each with a queen bed), 2 bathrooms, living room with vaulted ceilings and a gas fireplace, a fully furnished kitchen, a wraparound deck with patio furniture and grill, washer/dryer, high speed internet, and more. Sorry the garage is not available to use.
This secluded cabin located on Storm Mountain in Drake, CO is a 33 minute drive to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park and a 30 minute drive to Loveland.
The Storm Mountain area is surrounded by Arapaho and Roosevelt National forests with several hiking trials near by and views of the mountains you don't typically see. Regular visits from elk and deer, rock climbing, and fishing on the Big Thompson river just minutes away.
The perfect place to unplug, get outside and get away from every thing. Cell service is unlikely, Wi-Fi is provided but may not reliable. Home is stocked with board games and books to help keep you entertained on a rainy day.
Home is accessed by 3 miles of dirt unpaved narrow road, you will need a All Wheel or 4 Wheel drive high clearance vehicle and from October-May tire chains will be needed to get up the mountain in the snow.
The home is on a well and septic system so we ask you to limit your water use during your stay.
This home is managed by Rocky Mountains Property Services, a family owned and operated business local to Estes Park.

No Events No Exceptions, this home is licensed for 6 people no other people are to be in the home. Any party or gathering of any kind are NOT allowed.
The house has newer, very comfortable furniture and a well-appointed kitchen with everything you need to prepare great meals. Sunrises and sunsets were awesome and a great deck to enjoy them from. The road to get there featured two miles of steep switchbacks, so be sure to take your 4WD or AWD, especially in inclement weather. Once you get there though, it's very comfy. We enjoyed our stay!
Our stay here was great! The house was spotless and welcoming. The location is pretty quiet and not too far from Estes.
This property was not as isolated as we thought it would be, but very nice and not a bad drive to Estes Park/Rocky Mountain park. We had lots of room to move about, it was very clean, modern amenities (except no air conditioning), very quiet and the views were absolutely beautiful. I would definitely recommend this home! We had a wonderful vacation.
If you want to be off the beaten path away from the hustle and bustle this is your place.
Nice cabin, beautiful views! Very clean. Did not give 5 stars because one bath towel, one wash cloth per person and one hand towel per bathroom and staying 4 nights is not realistic. It would be much more laundry water efficient to be washing a full load of towels than two towels and two wash clothes a load. 6 of us do not all use our towels at the same time. I recommend taking towels and wash cloths if you stay here. Still a nice place to stay
Got together with friends from across the country to meet up and stay at this remote and beautiful cabin. Set close to Drake and easy driving distance to both Estes Park and Fort Collins/Loveland. Cabin was spacious for all 6 of us, with plenty of space to relax, play games, and reminisce. Would recommend four wheel drive vehicles for getting there but once your up the mountain, the views are spectacular.
