Estes Park Vacation Rental License #6016
Summer guests- This home has air conditioning which is very rare in Estes Park!
Mulligan's Lodge is perfectly situated overlooking the Big Thompson River...so close that you will feel like you can reach out and touch it! Top it all off with views of Prospect Mountain and you have the perfect Rocky Mountain retreat.
From this home it is just a short walk into the Town of Estes Park and an easy 1.5 mile drive to the Beaver Meadows entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park.
The main level great room has a gas fireplace to gather at with river and mountain views all around...no artwork needed on these walls! This is simply the ideal family gathering place with its adjoining fully equipped kitchen and dining room area. Gaze out to take in the perfectly clear Colorado sky, river and mountain views!!
From the great room you can step out to a fantastic deck to enjoy excellent mountain views along with the sights and sounds of the Big Thompson River! Take it all in while enjoying a cup of morning coffee, evening glass of wine, reading a good book or cooking dinner on the gas grill!
The cozy master bedroom en suite is also located on the main level. Open the windows and let the sounds of the Big Thompson lull you to sleep.
Also on the main level is a powder room, laundry area and 2 car garage.
A second family room is located in the lower level along with 2 queen bedrooms and a full bath. From this level you can walk-out onto the patio and spot elk and other wildlife moseying along the Big Thomson River! Or simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the view!
And a BONUS.....enjoy the AIR CONDITIONING (a rarity for homes in Estes Park!) on those hot summer days!!!!
As our guest you will enjoy access to HOA-shared common fishing areas along the Big Thompson river.
Wildlife sightings abound with frequent visits from elk, deer, wild turkeys and even an occasional bobcat.
Need we go on... we think that Mulligan's Lodge is perfect in every way... not just another vacation rental but a perfect mountain home!

About the host
Hosted by Mark and Sue Werder
From the Managers- We are pleased to facilitate your stay at Mulligan's Lodge for Nick and Jan Francis who are long-time residents of Colorado. We live close-by and are only a phone call away should you need anything during your stay! Mark and Sue Werder
From the Owners- We have lived in Greeley, Colorado since 1972 as does our son’s family. We winter in Tucson, Arizona so we have the BEST of both worlds.
After he spent many summer vacations as a child, with his family in Estes Park, Nick always dreamed of owning in a cabin in the Rocky Mountains.
We love the location of this townhouse as it is halfway between the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park and downtown Estes Park with all its restaurants, shopping and activities. The new construction has many attractive amenities & upgrades, including air conditioning, all new appliances, etc., and a GREAT location right ON the river. The great room’s wall to wall, floor to ceiling windows bring the great outdoors into view the moment you step inside. Handmade log beds and Colorado lodge furnishings combined with modern conveniences like granite counters will make your Rocky Mountain stay memorable.
Thanks so much for choosing our home for your Rocky Mountain adventure! Nick and Jan Francis
