quick trip

It was a cute place and clean but it could use some things in the kitchen like filters for the coffee pot, maybe some foil, salt and pepper. But overall a cute place for a quick stay and it was easy to find and the communication with the host was easy and quick responses.

Canyon River

The canyon river cabin was right on the road outside of Estes Park. It had cute rustic decorations, a full kitchen and a great porch to enjoy right by the river. Perfect for our evening after Rocky Mountain National Park.

Great place

Quiet, peaceful beautiful place to stay. I loved staying in the river and listening to it during the night. The cabin was very neat and clean. I also like the fact it was out of town a little bit got away from the crowded areas. We would go back and stay there again.

Cute small old motel at one time possibly. Has a leaky faucet in kitchen and mattress needs replacing. Nice and quiet even though it was on highway. Beautiful creek in back. Hard to find at first didn't know it was called Cole's .Riverside

Amazing stay and fly fishing!

We loved our time spent at this cabin! Very clean, perfectly stocked for 2, and great fly fishing out back (on private property—so no one else was there). Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend getaway!

Perfect for our trip to escape the heat in Louisiana, the river flowing right out your back door plus the hot tub, was amazing.

Rustic Charm for sure!

The cabin is very cute! The hot tub and patio backing up to the Big Thompson was lovely. Only 5 minute drive to Estes Park was perfect.

Nice but overpriced

Lovely cabin right on the river. For the price, though, we were disappointed by: not enough gas in grill to cook hot dogs only two forks in the kitchen? no "one pager" explaining how to access wifi, TV or cooling fans no extra blanket for cool evening temps

We enjoyed our stay. The traffic on nearby road was a bit noisy and the loveseat not super comfy but other than that it was great! The view of stream from back patio was nice!

Perfect getaway!

We are from Greeley and just came up for the night. We went downtown Estes for dinner then came back to the room. We sat in the hot tub under a completely clear sky! We could see every star! The sound of the river is very calming. We did contact the owner. He got back to us in a matter of minutes! Very easy process and a great night away. We will be back!

Spot on the River

Great location with the deck right on the Big Thompson. Took a video so my Mom could hear the water. My family has visited Estes for many years but it had been a long time since my last trip. The room was a perfect for for our needs. A place to rest, clean up after hikes etc. and run into town (3 miles) for meals etc. We found the cottage clean and quiet, a perfect spot to spend a few days in Estes!!

Quick getaway

Property was nice, clean, and convenient. There is no backyard access from the back exit. You have to walk around the property to get to the water. The deck furniture is outdated and needs to be replaced. There are other properties on the other side of the waterway, so there is no privacy on the back deck, as you are also directly next to your neighbors. The back does not lock securely, so do not bring anything valuable with you that you cannot take in your vehicle when you come and go. Property owner was easy to get a hold of and communicative.

A Toss Up

There were some great things and some not good at all things. Overall, the room was cozy, warm, well decorated, comfortable, and we loved the hot tub near the river. What we didn't like was: we were given no check-in directions so when we got there, we assumed there was an office. There was a room that seemed like a permanent residence, and the woman (Wendy?) there did come to the door... however, we were not greeted as she was on the phone (in a very loud, negative conversation with LOTS of swearing), and we were not given any directions. We tried the door to the room we thought was ours. Luckily it was unlocked and due to the pictures on the site, we knew this must be our room. At no time during our stay did Wendy greet us or even say hi. Though on the 2nd day, we did get to hear her again in another loud phone conversation were she dropped f-bombs in nearly every sentence. It was very disrespectful and rude. The room was not overly clean. There were grapes on the floor. The light fixtures and fan are incredibly dusty and with plenty of cobwebs. You are right next to the highway, and you do hear cars all day and night. Under other circumstances, this motel-like room would be a nice place to stay. Also, be careful. We were charged the summer rate, even though we rented in December and the winter dates/rates are posted on their website.

Perfect place for couples.

This place was great. Perfect spot for couples. The hot tub was wonderful. We liked that it was nestled but only a few minute drive to Estes Park. Highly recommend. The hosts were kind and extremely responsive too. I had a user error issue at check in but the hosts were helpful and responded in a timely manner.

Wonderfully relaxing

Our three night stay was wonderful. Communication from owner was great and check in check out was easy. The location was perfect. Close to nature and only two miles to Estes park. Traffic noise was not bad as I mostly heard the moving water of the big Thompson out back. Great cabin for fly fishing and easy access hiking in Roosevelt national forest. Cabin is small and quant but enough room for two to move around. The hot tub was amazing and thr stars on a clear night are perfect
