  Lundy F from Carrollton, TX recommends this vacation rental

  Our multigenerational group (4 adults, two kids) loved our week in this beautiful home. Great location in a quiet neighborhood near downtown and RMNP. The house was spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed. The hot tub was the most pristine one I’ve ever seen in a rental.
  The covered deck on the front of the house was a wonderful spot to sit and enjoy the cool mountain air.
  We had a minor maintenance issue when we arrived. I contacted the property company. They responded quickly and the communication was excellent!
  We had a great vacation and can’t wait to come back.

  • Manager Responded on 7/3/2026

  Stephanie K from Cedar Rapids, IA recommends this vacation rental

  Husband and I took our older moms to Estes for vacation and decided to try staying at a house instead of hotel for 4 nights. Doing the math, the house cost less and was a relaxing choice. The bedrooms are lovely- one mom had the bathroom right outside her door, the other had the one with the deck. My husband and I took the master bedroom with the ensuite and deck.
  Our stay was fantastic. If had a million dollars I’d offer to buy the house!
  It’s roomy, well-kept, tastefully decorated with comfortable beds and furniture. The kitchen has everything you need! Just get groceries at the local Safeway. It’s close to downtown with delicious local restaurants and yet out of the traffic and noise. I enjoyed the dark, starry skies at night and the birds in the mornings. Elk wander through sometimes. I was strafed by a hummingbird and had a conversation with the neighbor who explained to me the reason there are no hummingbird feeders around is because one day a black bear came up onto the deck and emptied the nectar feeders!
  The house is everything it appears to be from the pictures. Highly recommend and we’re definitely returning!

  • Manager Responded on 6/1/2026

    Thank you for such a wonderful review! We love hearing that the home helped create a memorable vacation for your family, especially one shared across generations. It sounds like everyone found their perfect spot to relax and enjoy all that Estes Park has to offer. Your stories about the hummingbird, the elk, and even the neighborhood bear are exactly the kinds of mountain moments that make this area so special - we're honored by the compliment! Thank you for choosing to stay with us. We’ll be thrilled to welcome you back for your next Estes Park getaway. _Mackey

  Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The house and living areas were spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated. Our location was slightly removed from the main area of Stes Park but also close enough to travel to town for shopping and restaurants. We loved seeing all of the wildlife abundant in the backyard during our stay (elk, mule deer, turkeys, etc.) If we return to Estes Park, we would definitely rent this home again.

  • Manager Responded on 10/2/2025

    Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad your family enjoyed the comfort and spaciousness of the home, as well as the peaceful location with all the amazing wildlife right outside the door.

  We stayed 5 nights with my in-laws and the home was absolutely perfect. So much space and incredibly clean. Convenient rooms to nap littles in without having to tiptoe around. Wildlife all around.

Hope to be back again.

  We love staying at this mountain home. It was big enough for two families to spread out and enjoy. The basement was great for our teenage kids to hang out. The linens and towels were luxurious. The beds were comfortable. Awesome to have a fireplace and a hot tub in the winter time. Great location, close to town, but far enough for it to be peaceful. Loved seeing the wildlife every morning.
