Cozy house in a perfect location

The property was everything we hoped it would be! Located close to everything we wanted to do. The walk to town was short but plan for the hill coming back. The house accommodated 5 of us comfortably. Highly recommend!tact.

Family getaway

Last time in Estes we stayed in a cabin outside of town, which was great, but it was nice to be able to explore downtown without having to fight for parking. Being just 2 blocks from downtown Estes was a great experience for us.

Great location, homey stay

We loved this place - the location is perfect: easy walk to downtown, 5 minute drive to Rocky Mountain National Park, close to restaurants, shops, hikes. The home has so many sweet and adorable details - movies, games, "swan towels" and more. Super comfy beds, big TV, lots of room everywhere, huge kitchen. Next time we return to Estes, we'll stay again!

Nice Place and Convenient

We enjoyed our stay! The home was clean, well equipped, and very close to the downtown Estes Park and quick access to RMNP. The beds were comfortable and all rooms were ample size for our needs. Most everything was in working order (tub faucet leaked and some of the windows wouldn't open.) We would not hesitate to return.

Family gathering place

This property was the perfect place for a weekend getaway with our daughter, our daughter-in-law and granddaughter. The location was walking distance to downtown and the fenced in backyard was perfect for the grand dogs. A few maintenance repairs could make this property even better (drawer slides in kitchen and bathroom and balancing of heat vents). All in all we enjoyed our time there.

This is a great property with the perfect location to enjoy downtown Estes and the Rocky Mountain Nation Park. Equipped beyond expectation. The only negatives about the property was that the heating and air conditioning did not work in the living room and two of the beds measured out to be full size although advertised as queen. We would stay here again!

Big Horn property

We enjoyed our trip to Estes Park- the rental location as to downtown was great. The hill to town is steep but doable. There are a lot of dogs and the outside areas are very rustic. The pictures are accurate and the place was very clean and comfortable. We were disappointed with the kitchen very few glasses and wine glasses. Overall a good rental but if we return we would look for a place with a view and an outdoor area you could enjoy.

Great spot!

This was a beautiful place that was close to everything and just right for the 3 of us! Great views, walk to downtown and only a couple miles from RMNP! The only qualm I had was with Internet as this was, unfortunately, a trip through which I had to work. I was told the Internet was strong and consistent but it kept dropping my signal all day and ran slow when it was working. The moral of thr story: stay here to enjoy the beauty of Estes Park when you can leave work behind!!
