Beautiful cabin, wonderful view from the porch, charming furnishings
A beautiful old cabin that fit our family very well. The wildlife around was amazing and the views too!
Our family had a great stay at the Joy Cabin. The view from the front porch is spectacular! It's an older cabin, but had all the amenities we needed.
We chose this cabin for the views & got so much more. Its very spacious, close to conveniences, but still spaced away from the neighbors.
Everything was just what we expected and wanted. Rustic but with sufficient modern conveniences. Location is close to everything but feels private and away from civilization. Quiet and great view. Loved sitting on the porch watching the shifting weather on Longs Peak under a blanket. Our stay couldn’t have been better. I’d go back in a heartbeat.
Place does have a difficult mice problem. Traps are fine. Caught a couple and observed 2 more and heard them at night. Probably came in through pipes under the house or in dryer vents. First stairway step at ground aria of stairway entrance is too big a jump. Need a cement slab on ground to shorten the first step height for old folks. Electric base board floor heaters only work in master bedroom. Forces you to over heat that area to get heat in living room etc. The thermostat difficult to work. Has a mind of its own.
This was our fourth stay at the Joy Cabin so we knew what we were getting. This was our first time in late September so the earlier nights and cooler temps reduced the time spent out on the porch which just might be the best porch in Estes! But we did get to spend more time indoors which was actually pretty fun as well. It's a great place, great location, and I love the historic feel. Well equipped kitchen too.
Outstanding place to stay!
The kitchen was large and well-equipped, with a lot of counter space. We didn’t spend any time in the living room or watching TV, because we were either in the park or on the front porch. We loved the front porch, with the rocking chairs and porch swing and the awesome view of Long’s Peak. The location is convenient. You are close to the Beaver Meadow entrance to the park, and not too far from downtown. We have rented several cabins that Steve Ferrante has managed, and he has always been very good to work with.
Historic cabin!
This property is in a great location! It was easy to get to town and close to activities, yet had the secluded mountain cabin feel with wildlife all around. Well maintained and clear instructions. It was perfect for our family - middle-aged parents with college aged children. There are steep stairs going into the house, to the upstairs, and the bed on the main level is rather tall, so I don't know that I would recommend it for those with mobility issues. For us, it was perfect! The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed to prepare meals. Enjoyed the porches and the main living area for reading books and playing games. Highly recommend this property!
Loved the cabin, porch, wildlife, and the view. We hope to come back with our family.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Joy Cabin for our first family vacation to the Rocky Mountains. The cabin was clean and perfect for our family of four. The weather was a little on the variable side but the views were amazing, especially on a clear day. We saw plenty of elk and deer just outside the sun room window and our kids loved the hammock out front. The cabin is conveniently located to town and to RMNP. Thanks for a great stay!
