    The property was very nice. Very accessible to town. The cabin had plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. The cabin could use better lighting. There is no light by the door when you come in and trying to find your shoes when it gets dark is hard. Putting a puzzle together is a challenge as well considering the lighting. The only other issue was the request to restrict water usage. I understand the request but its hard to do for 5 days with a family of four. And no Christmas decorations at all was a bummer. Its hard to drive 18 hrs and pack Christmas decorations along with presents. And all the local stores were stripped bare of just about all decorations. Otherwise it was a great location and stay.

    I would definitely stay here again. It was so beautiful and almost every morning we woke up to 3 big elk grazing out front. Very close to Estes Park & Rocky Mountain National Park. Can’t recommend this place enough!

    The property looks just like the pictures in the listing. It’s a lovely mountain cabin with a lot of history. It has been very well cared for and is in great shape. The location was perfect - close to Estes Park and in the Big Thompson valley. The neighborhood was quiet, we never saw any neighbors. We could hear autos on the Highway, but they weren’t any louder than the river sounds. The cabin was very well stocked with linens, cooking needs and condiments and even toiletry items. We loved our time there!

    We loved our stay at this cabin. It is close to town while also giving us the get away feel that we wanted. We loved listening to the river rushing by and exploring the rocks nearby. The cabin was also perfect for our family, had a well stocked kitchen and our kids loved their upstairs nook. We would definitely stay here again.

    We enjoyed our stay until we saw a camera inside the cabin. That made us feel really uneasy. Overall the cabin is beautiful the river is amazing, I was able to catch some fish! It was excellent. The queen size bed is a little uncomfortable, but manageable. The neighbors were extremely friendly, helped me identify the trout I caught. ? But... still, there was a camera inside the property! Creepy and uncomfortable.

    Nice spot for river access. Enjoyed our stay. The turn into the lane from the main highway is a bit tricky, so the alert from the host was valuable.

    Highly recommend! Location was great, lots of info on the area was provided. The house was super cute and loved the fact that you can open the windows and hear the river. The sunporch was my favorite spot to relax.

    10/10! We stay in the Estes area couple times a year and this was by far the best cabin I’ve rented. Communication with the owners prior to arrive was fantastic. Owners thoughtfully stocked the cabin with everything you might need—down to sunscreen. No need to bring extra blankets or pillows—they have you covered. Spacious seating indoors and out. We spent most of our time by the river, including eating meals at the picnic table. I will never stay anywhere else.

    Very clean and comfortable property only 5 minutes outside of Estes Park. The house was bigger than expected and nicely decorated. The queen size bed was probably one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in at a rental. Extremely clean place on a beautiful property. I would definitely recommend.
