Sounds like you had a wonderful time! We are lucky to be so close in proximity to Rocky Mountain National Park! We would love to host you again.
5 adults stayed 4 nights and were very pleased. Very clean, good location for us. We rarely saw any other people in the ares.The highlight of the lodging was easy proximity to a lovely river path. The elk that surfaced were kind enough to share with us! We were there for family reunion, so sadly spent very little time at the townhome.

Thank you! We're so glad that you enjoyed staying at Gateway to the Wildside and hope that you'll be back for a return trip - perhaps during our cooler fall and winter months!
Loved our stay in the Gateway to the Wildside townhome in Estes. We loved the interior and how beautifully it was decorated. The kitchen was big and well laid out.
The aspen's were starting to turn to that beautiful yellow color. Weather was perfect all 4 days.

Thank you for your review. Glad you enjoyed this beautiful home! SkyRun Rocky Mountain would love to host your next trip to Estes Park.
My family and I was able to stay at the lodge for a short fall getaway. The central location of the property close to Estes Park and minutes away from the RMNP was perfect! We even saw some elk a few lodges down from where we stayed. The cleanliness of the lodge stood out most to us and made us feel right at home. I highly recommend this property tor a Colorado visit!

Thank you for the 5 star review Brianne! That's wonderful that you got a visit from the elk! This location really is great, being away from the crowds, but yet still close to town and Rocky Mountain National Park! SkyRun would love to host you again.
