Mom's 90th Birthday Getaway

Wow! What a perfect place to celebrate! Plenty of room for everyone, great kitchen and dining area. Beautiful view, loved the hot tub! The driveway is steep! When we got there it was clear, but then it snowed and we worried about sliding down it on the way out, but it was fine. Cons: The dishwasher... it's not screwed into anything and feels like it will fall out when the door is opened.Water pressure is pretty low. One shower at a time!The lighting needs to be much brighter - or maybe we're just all old. The undercabinet lights were all dead and we had to recharge them. Luckily we had chargers and knew that was the problem. The refrigerator door opens the wrong way. The thermostat is right next to the front door so it comes on more than it should so the rest of the house is too hot, but we adjusted it to our liking. And we would have liked at least one full length mirror.

Secluded & Quiet.

We had 3 couples go up for a relaxing stay of just hanging out & catching up. It was great quiet place to enjoy the hot tub & the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The office manager was very quick to respond with any questions I had.

Amazing views

Ample room. Very comfortable. Beautiful house. The only thing we all noticed was lighting could be better. House was a little dark inside. Beautiful views of the mountains. Host very responsive. We contacted her about snow plowing and she had someone out within an hour. We had about 7 inches of fresh snow the morning after we arrived.

Welcoming well-stocked home

We, family of 6 plus a toddler, really enjoyed our stay at the Mountain House. Heidi was very responsive to our questions and needs. Loved all the bathrooms and the well-stocked kitchen. Great location for getting both to downtown Estes Park and RMNP.

Amazing home in great location!

This home is amazing! Finding it was easy, steep drive up to the house (but fun!), absolutely amazing house, fabulous decor, neighbors, but not really visible from the house, trees all around a huge wrap-around porch! Tons of squirrels, chipmunks, mice (outside only!! The house itself was pristine!), and lots of various birds. We heard elk bugling off in the distance, but none on the side of the mountain we were on. Views for miles, but really no morning sunrise as we are sort of in the shadow of the mountain. Beds very comfy. Great tubs and lots of hot water. The lower-floor bedrooms were very quiet, but the master on the main floor has creaking, that sounds like knocking/squeaking/a door lightly closing, pretty constantly due to the heat inside the house, but the half of the log that is outside is cold. It occurred during the day also, but we didn’t mind it at all then. So put your deepest sleeper on the top floor. Heidi responded in half a minute when I thought the jacuzzi had stopped heating. Apparently we had hit the buttons in just the right combination to turn on a low power mode. We reset it and it heated up great again! A super place for 2-8 people! Absolutely beautiful and updated home! And very clean!

Lovely cabin in the mountains!

We stayed here for a low-key bachelorette party trip and it couldn't have gone better! We went to RMNP to see the Elk Rut in action and enjoyed a nice dinner in town. Plenty of room for all of us in the house. We enjoyed the quiet, the rustic space and especially loved the decor!

Our Stay

House was a great place to stay. We were there for a few nights. We did need a sound machine at night so the roof of the timber home didn’t startle us awake with the noises it makes when the outside temp changes. Not too big of a deal. Would have appreciated cups for the keurig considering the price per. Night is high.

Family anniversary

The house and location were just right! Enough room for everyone! Babies, toddlers and youngsters needs were met with the space and the ability to have their own space to have fun in. The adults also enjoyed the outside table, porch and hot tub! If you do have littles that can do stairs on their own this is a good spot, if littles need help with stairs, might think about taking a couple of stair gates to keep them in your sight! I am not a spick and span type of housekeeper, so wasn't appalled to see a sock, popcorn and dust under a table in the main area and under beds. Otherwise house was clean, and hopefully was well disinfected. The deck/porch was a great place to sit and relax. Fires were happening near by and Heidi communicated well for our safety and departure. This would definitely be a house and location we could stay at again and again and recommend it beyond 5 stars.

Why they chose this property

We were seeking a private mountain home in Estes Park, centrally located, within town limits with easy access to RMNP, downtown, and all of the local attractions. We fell in love right away and knew this was the one!! The size and construction of the huge logs captivated us. We value our privacy and appreciate the very private setting of our new home!

What makes this property unique

We hope you will love the rustic charm and modern day amenities with awesome mountain views and, of course, a hot tub for relaxing those muscles after a full day of hiking or shopping.
