About this property

Historic Updated Estes Park Cabin 1 mile from Rocky Mtn National Park

Beautifully restored vintage cabin boarding Rocky Mountain National Park and the mountain town, Estes Park in gorgeous Colorado. This two bedroom cabin sleeping 4, encased in knotty pine from the 50's sits nestled among the trees. Take in views of the mountain ranges during the day and the milky way at night. A fully furnished kitchen and bath are reminiscent of days gone by with 2022 amenities. Relax on the large deck after a day of exploring watching elk pass by sipping on a famous Colorado craft beer. Bring yourself to the mountains.

A great cabin!

This is the perfect cabin for small family near Estes park. Less than 5 mins to downtown and prob 5 mins to rocky mt national park. Very clean and has character. Comfy beds, nice shower. We saw elk from the front porch- walked right across the yard about 7:00 am! Owner very responsive with tips on the area. We had no problems. Would highly recommend

Cute cabin

The cabin is clean with all the necessary amenities. Friendly host with great instructions on everything. The only down side was my wife constantly telling me to come quick and see the elk!! Next morning the deer were right out the door! So fun to sit on the deck and watch the animals.

Great cabin for the family

Our family of four with two small kids (ages 4 & 2) had an amazing time at the cabin. It’s a very short drive from many eateries, shops and the National Park entrance. The canon feels recently updated yet still maintains a rustic charm. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Perfect for my small fam!

This place was perfect for us visiting RMNP! We spent our days in the park, and this was the perfect place to come back to and rest and relax. It’s off the beaten path of Estes Park, but close enough to everything to be where you want to be in minutes! The house was clean, and the host was prompt with his responses!

Great Weekend In Estes Park

This property is very clean and it had everything we could possibly need. The owner has done a good job of thinking of what could be needed. The property is located a few miles from downtown but it is an easy drive to there. Highly recommend this property.

Perfect Location

My wife and I spent several days hiking RMNP. The location and accommodations were perfect for a 4 day stay. The house is minutes from the park and so close to town for restaurants and groceries. The back deck is super for reading and computer work as well as enjoying a glass of wine. We would book this house again in the future.

Book This Place!!!!!

We spent an amazing few days in Estes Park and this cabin was ABSOLUTELY perfect for our family of four. It was well supplied, quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Estes (yet still close), only 5 minutes from RMNP entrance and communication with the host Michael was wonderful. Rustic yet modern and had turkeys and an elk just feet from the cabin. If you are looking for a place in Estes, this should be your place!!

Wildlife haven

Really enjoyed this little cabin, worked perfect for my wife and myself. Came in from hiking rmnp on afternoon and two bull elks were laying under the pine tree by the porch, also had mule deer frequent the place almost daily. We will try to rent this again next year as we plan next years visit to Estes Park.
