Great, well appointed cozy cabin! Has a detached guest house as well. Good location just outside of the hustle and bustle of Estes. I’ve been renting cabins in Estes for nearly 20yrs and I’ll definitely return to the Snowed Inn!

The house was beautiful and perfect for what my family needed this past week for our vacation to the Rocky Mountains. Estes Park center is within a 5-minute drive. The town has so much to offer with quaint little shops, restaurants and the marina is nearby if you want to rent up kayak or paddle board. We loved that the house was out in the mountains and you weren't right on top of each other with neighbors. The house had everything you needed from a washer and dryer to plenty of space, lots of pots and pans, utensils, coffee maker, grill and a beautiful outdoor patio to sit out in the evening and enjoy the beautiful weather. You are so close to the Rocky Mountain National Park, so this house is ideal! The directions to the house were perfect and the communication to be able to get into the house was spot on.It was hard for us to say goodbye today after a wonderful week in Colorado. I would definitely recommend this house to anybody.

The location and the house was wonderful! Very close to the main town of Estes Park and the main entrance of the Rocky Mountain national park. We were 6 of us and had booked both the main house and the guest house since we needed the extra shower & bathroom - so overall very comfortable and convenient for our family. Everything was great. We just found the WiFi to be very slow - some of our family was working a bit but the WiFi was quite slow.

Family Vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Estes Park. The house is in a great location. The property could use a few updates but we loved all the space it offered. We had some amazing wild life visit in the early mornings. The only downside would be having to worry about the crabby neighbor.

Thanks for your stay. We try to keep our property maintained in top condition and have new carpet and tile in laundry coming next week. We use open times to keep up with everything. Glad we could accommodate with the wildlife. There has been lots of activity this summer. I ask guests to be mindful of respecting neighbors to keep our neighborhood quiet for long term residents. A few guests haven’t over the years. Thank you for your consideration.

Enjoyed our stay at a great location close to estes park. Size of house was perfect with 5 porches to enjoy the outdoors on! It was well supplied with dishes and linens, supplies etc. Kruger rock trail in hermit park right across the street was a favorite for the hikers in our group. Communication with the host was excellent. We especially appreciated the guest house for those in the group who preferred quiet time from the rest of the family.

About the host

Hosted by Cheryl Anderson

Host profile image
We turned our family cabin purchased in 1986 into a vacation rental in 2002. We totally remodeled inside and out and designed with a professional designer to get all of the touches that make your stay more enjoyable. My husband, Dan and I live in Fort Collins, an hour away from Estes and do all of our own cleaning, maintenance,and improvements to make sure everything is perfect for your stay. I know you will love our warm and cozy home and the privacy the location offers.

Why they chose this property

Estes Park is just an hour away from our home, a great place for us to get away to one of the most beautiful places in Colorado. We originally built in 1986, remodeled in 2002, and continually work to improve the quality of the rental. Meadowdale Hills is a small subdivision with lots at nearly 2 acres with quiet and space. Elk love the meadow and ranch nearby and frequent our property.

What makes this property unique

Our home is only five minutes from downtown Estes Park making the location convenient but not in a crowded subdivision in town. My front porch is spacious with views that are inspiring. I provide many amenities so you don't have to pack so much for your trip, including condiments, spices, flour and sugar, robes, bag chairs for a picnic and many other items.
