3BR + Loft End Unit, Elk & Golf Course Views, Private Deck, Close to Downtown
(3015)
Escape to this private 3-bedroom plus loft, 2.5-bath end-unit townhome overlooking the Estes Park golf course, with panoramic mountain views and frequent elk sightings right from your deck. With space for up to 8 guests and nearly 2,000 square feet of living space, this mountain retreat blends rustic charm with modern comfort just minutes from downtown Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park.
One of the most special features of this home is the wildlife. Guests regularly see elk, deer and coyotes roaming the golf course, and during the fall rut you will even hear elk bugling. Watching wildlife with your morning coffee or evening glass of wine is something many of our guests mention as a highlight of their stay.
Inside, the open layout provides comfortable gathering space for families and groups traveling together. The main living area features large windows that frame the mountain views, a cozy fireplace, and easy access to the private deck. The kitchen is fully equipped for preparing meals at home, and the dining area offers plenty of seating for shared dinners after a day of hiking, sightseeing, or golfing.
The sleeping arrangements are ideal for multi-generational families or groups of friends, offering privacy while still feeling connected. The loft provides an additional TV and lounge space, making it easy for different age groups to relax in their own way.
The private deck overlooks the golf course and mountains, offering a peaceful setting that feels tucked away, yet you are only minutes from everything. Most guests find they are just 3 to 5 minutes from downtown Estes Park’s shops and restaurants, Lake Estes, Stanley Park, and the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park.
Families will appreciate the comfortable layout and available baby amenities, and groups love the combination of space, privacy, and location. Whether you are here for hiking, wildlife viewing, a golf trip, or simply a relaxing mountain getaway, this home offers a welcoming and memorable place to stay.
We intentionally leave a buffer day before and after most reservations so each stay feels relaxed and unhurried. Because of this, the calendar may occasionally show small gaps or limited availability. If your dates are slightly flexible or you see a short opening that does not appear bookable online, please feel free to reach out. We are sometimes able to accommodate special requests that do not show up on the public calendar.
Our pricing includes all fees with no hidden charges, so you can book with confidence and focus on planning your time in the mountains.
Many of our guests return year after year to experience a different season in Estes Park, and we would love to welcome you back whenever the mountains call again

We loved our stay at this condo; it was perfect for our family. Michele was a wonderful host and helpful with information. The condo was even better than the pictures and super clean. Bed were extremely comfortable and location was perfect. We enjoyed watching the elk, prairie dogs and magpies on the golf course. Highly recommend this stay!

About the host
Hosted by Michele Johnson
We are Roy and Michele Johnson and we started building and renting luxury condo's in 1995 when we realized there were very few if any places big enough and nice enough for a family of 6 to stay for a week. We decided to build something we would be proud to offer to our own extended family and friends. That is how Mountainview Vacation Rentals was created.
Why they chose this property
Roy and I have lived in Estes Park for over 30 years. We are raising a family and we love this town.
What makes this property unique
While you can view the golfers and the surrounding beautiful golf course, only in Estes Park can you also see the elk, deer, mountain lion, bear and coyotes on that same course. Not to mention the majestic mountains.
