This was the perfect family getaway to celebrate our daughters birthday and we loved that we could bring our 2 corgis to explore Colorado with us! The hosts were friendly, communicative, and added the cutest touches to our stay! A birthday banner for our girl and a bottle of wine for us! The trail behind the cabin was the perfect start to our days and the coziness of the cabin was the perfect ending! Colorado and this quiet little cabin stole our Wisconsin hearts!

Cozy little pet & family-friendly cabin with amazing hosts! The private trail was perfect for a morning hike to get the day started and watch the sunrise. The hosts had plenty of recommendations tailored to our family and provided lots of little touches (like games and snacks!) to make it feel like a home away from home. Comfy furniture with plenty of amenities. Great location - close enough to Estes Park and RMNP to be convenient, but tucked away in the canyon for a peaceful escape. Would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this cute Colorado cabin! The cabin was cozy and clean, making it the perfect place to relax after a day outdoors. One of the highlights was having hiking trails right on the property—being able to step outside and immediately explore nature was amazing. The surroundings were peaceful and beautiful! We would absolutely stay here again!

RMNP Adventure

The Canyon Cabin was the perfect spot for us to enjoy all of RMNP and Estes Park. The cabin had everything we needed plus a secluded location with a relaxing porch. The built in trail was a bonus. Would recommend to anyone looking to escape the crowds.

This was our first time to RMNP. The cabin was perfect for our stay & Kari was awesome responding to questions we had :) The bottle of wine was an added bonus! I HIGHLY recommend staying here. FYI : we were a little nervous arriving as we have an F-350 & didn’t ask about driveway & parking. There was plenty of room

Exactly as described…

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this super cute cabin. Kari was a dream to deal with. She was very responsive when I had a question about something, even trying to help me find a souvenir I wanted. We go to Estes every year and will not hesitate to book another stay at this property!

About the host

Host profile image
Joe and I are local hosts who have lived in Estes Park for 11 years and counting! We love it here and love that we can provide a cabin for guests to have a wonderful stay as well!

Why they chose this property

We love the tranquility of this cabin that sits on 13 acres of forest and boulders - and the PRIVATE HIKING TRAIL w/ beautiful views! We love the close access 20 steps from our property of the Big Thompson River for catch-and-release fishing. We love the proximity to the amenities in Estes Park and RMNP. Ideal property for a solo or couple's retreat. Also nicely accommodates a small group of friends (up to 4) or small family with up to 2 pets. No events or parties.

What makes this property unique

100 year old cabin, that has been well-taken care of and many modern updates. Private Hiking Trail. No other properties can be seen from cabin.
