About this property

Walk to RMNP, hot tub, mountain views and river access.

We are delighted you are considering staying at Aspen Brook Retreat (permit # 21-ZONE3144). It is the perfect getaway located in a neighborhood waiting to accommodate visitors to Estes Park and the Rocky Mountains. Our newly remodeled 4 bedroom home has Mountain View’s and is located within a few yards of the Little Thompson River.
The living room has plenty of seating, a tv and a fireplace to relax in after a long day of hiking. The entertainment room has a large screen TV, game table, foosball table, games, puzzles and books. For the little one, a separate playroom has a play kitchen set, toddler basketball hoop, toys, games, books and a table. Nestled between the bunk beds is a tepee for the kids to escape and use their creativity.
The kitchen is well appointed with everything needed to cook and serve a nice meal including a full set of pots and pans, waffle maker, crockpot, toaster, a coffee station that includes a coffee maker and Keurig.
With two decks there is plenty of space to sit and watch the abundant wildlife, relax in the spacious hot tub and star gaze, lay in the hammock with a cold drink listening to the river or enjoy a BBQ at the picnic table.
The family friendly neighborhood has a newly installed playground and room to set up a favorite yard game. The 1/4 mile of river access owned by the HOA has benches to sit and enjoy the river, fish, or use one of the several picnic tables nestled among the pine trees to enjoy a meal.
You can take a 10 minute walk into Rocky Mountain National Park or drive in with the park entrance just a couple miles away. Downtown shopping, eating, entertainment and amusement are also just a couple miles away.
To help make everyone’s visit most enjoyable the HOA does not allow smoking anywhere in the neighborhood (and may impose a fee that would be passed on to our guests), and does not allow motorcycles, RVs or tents. Quiet hours are from 9:30 pm to 8 am and we ask that noise be kept to a minimum during these times to respect the neighbors, especially when using the hot tub.
We look forward to accommodating your needs as you visit and enjoy our beautiful area.

Our family had a wonderful stay in Estes Park. The property was exactly as described, very clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable week. The location was excellent—close enough to enjoy downtown Estes Park and convenient access to Rocky Mountain National Park, while still providing a peaceful mountain setting to relax and unwind.The check-in process was simple, communication with the host was prompt and helpful, and the home was perfect for our family. We especially enjoyed the beautiful mountain views, the wildlife sightings, and having a comfortable place to return to after days spent exploring the park.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Estes Park.

We were very impressed with our stay at this home. Everything was accurately described in the listing and it was tastefully recently remodeled. We had everything we needed for 8 people to stay comfortably and the communication with the owner was excellent-prompt and responsive. Location was highly convenient and the sound of the river nearby very soothing. Would highly recommend this home.

This place had it all as far as amenities in the house and it’s proximity to the Rocky Mountain National Park. It is only a quick drive into Estes Park downtown! It had a cabin feel with conveniences near-by! As an extra bonus, it was really accommodating for toddlers as well as the teens! It can be hard to meet that age span but this property did it well!!

Estes Experience

We had 2 families of 5 spending 3 days in Estes. This was a great location for us to do everything on our Estes list. RMNP, fun city. Mountain coaster, dinner and shops. The noise of the nearby river made it very relaxing to hang out on the deck. Owners were great with communication and provided fun treats for movie and game nights. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful property!

Spent a relaxing, 10-night stay at this property. Couldn't have been more perfect. Great areas for family to gather. Used the downstairs "game room" as a quilting studio for my wife. Snowed in (12 inches) for 2 of our days, and it was tremendously relaxing! High-speed internet, and plenty of games and books to stay busy. Highly, highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Laura & Mark Richins

Host profile image
Hi! We are Mark and Laura and love an adventure. As a family with four grown children, we love the outdoors and hiking, kayaking, backpacking and camping. We find joy in spending time with our growing family. We also like to get away and spend time together exploring our amazing world and the beauty that surrounds us. Our love for adventure is what brought us to the mountains to find a home that we could enjoy and share with others.

Why they chose this property

We love this home as it is located close to Rocky Mountain National Park with a trail close by that can be hiked right into the park. The river access is perfect for fishermen or to sit and listen to the rush of the river. A new neighborhood playground is great for the children and adults to visit and watch.

What makes this property unique

Located in an accommodation zoned HOA, the neighborhood is set up to accommodate visitors with a large playground, river access with river seating and picnic tables and a garbage disposal facility.
