About this property
River Bend Mountain Retreat
The cabin is close to the Wild Basin Entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park, Brainard Lake Recreation area, and Estes Park.
**Due to Boulder County regulations the cabin can only accept guest stays of 30 days or longer. A 55% discount off regular price will be applied to your 30 day stay to make a month at the cabin more affordable.**
Your secluded mountain cabin nestles among the Rocky Mountains' fragrant pines on the bend of a rushing stream. Indulge in its high-end touches, while the serenity relaxes away your stress.
In addition to the patio grill area and large deck, there are multiple other individual spots along the river.
The main living area has satellite TV, WiFi high speed Internet, a DVD player, and Sonos® sound system. There is a fireplace in the main area, and a wood burning stove in the master sitting area. Each has a cozy love seat to curl up on in front of the fire.
Use the kitchen’s full selection of chef’s quality pots, pans, and utensils on the antique gas stove to create your culinary delights. An assortment of baking dishes, serving, and storage bowls complete preparation. There are all the standard appliances: refrigerator / freezer, microwave, blender, toaster, and drip coffee maker. And, small / large plates, bowls, mugs, flatware, water, rocks and wine glasses, round out service and seating for up to six. The outdoor gas grill sits near the river with all the utensils for your BBQ.
The first bedroom, the master bedroom, has a queen bed, chest of drawers, closet and laptop desk with a private sitting area that has a wood burning stove. It also has a private half bath.
The second bedroom, the twin bedroom, has two twin beds, a chest of drawers and closet. There is an adjacent shared full bathroom with a shower / tub.
The third bedroom, satisfying either the desire for a little more privacy, or the need for more than four guests, is a (11′ x 11′, 121 sq ft) bunkhouse with a queen bed. The bunkhouse has electric and heat, but no bathroom. This private oasis sits only 30 feet from the cabin and steps from the water.
Parachute® brand percale sheets make up each bed to help hot sleepers stay cool at night. Down alternative comforters keep those who run cold, warm. Throws throughout the house warm cold toes. And Vornado® fans provide a breeze.
The property has a privacy fence and the water is the fourth boundary. There is parking for up to 3 cars. Dogs are the only pets allowed at the cabin for a $150 additional cleaning charge. Please let us know if you are bringing your furry friend, and understand pets are never allowed on furniture, beds, linens, etc.
The outdoor stove / fireplace is permanently no longer available for use due to county restrictions. The gas grill is always usable.
The cabin does not have Air Conditioning.
Guests have the entire cabin and grounds to themselves, except for a small storage shed.
