The boyfriend and I were looking to get away from life for a weekend and this cabin fulfilled that perfectly. Location real close to Estes Park but far enough away where you dont feel like you're close to much civilization. Space was perfect for a couple: small bedroom, minimal kitchen, basic bathroom. Best part was the private hot tub. Facing away from the road and tucked on the side of the house, we felt comfortable enough to skinny dip. This cabin provided the perfect place to reconnect.

This is a very cute place for a cozy weekend stay. Very close to town for an easy drive to stores and restaurants. The hot tub worked very well, it was very nice for a snowy weekend. Kitchen appliances worked great, the heater was very efficient and the heated fan was nice to have as well. The bed and couch were very comfortable. I will say it would’ve been nice to have extra blankets around, especially when sitting on the couch and wanting to be warmer. Additionally, there was only 1 towel per person (besides 1 hot tub towel per person), I prefer 2 towels for myself, and having extra towels in general would be nice, so that’s another note for something that maybe could be added. Overall, great place and had a great time!

Everyone was very nice. The cabin is located right on Fall River which made hot tubbing in the evening very enjoyable.

We had an amazing stay, it was in excellent proximity to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. It was super clean with everything we needed. The hot tub and the amazing close up view of the flowing river were the best part. We would definitely stay here again.

We spent our 30th anniversary at this lovely cabin. Had such a great time at the national park and Estes Park. Would definitely recommend and go back. The back deck with the river and jacuzzi were just such a bonus! Had a nice visit from several elk while there.

My wife and I book this jacuzzi suite for a 1 day getaway. We really enjoying the riverside jacuzzi under the stars. We wish we had more time at this cute little cabin and we’re looking forward to our next trip. Thanks again to our hosts we had some cell phone internet issues. If it’s your first visit I’d recommend taking a couple screenshots just in case.

Great location in the canyon. Everything was as expected in the cabin. Felt very much at home and relaxed during our three night stay. Hot tub makes this a five star but can’t beat the beautiful sound of the big Thompson river out the back. Great fishing location. Owners showed great care for the property and had excellent communication with the booking. Would stay again.

Clogged sink in bathroom, very uncomfortable bed and couch. Terrible tasting water. Hot tub need service. Very over priced.

Location was close to Estes Park. Just far enough out of town. The room isnt fancy but you can fish off the back deck. The hot tub worked properly. If you are staying extended days you might need to flag down the cleaning lady and ask for replcement towels. She was very nice. The owners were easy to contact. Did i mention you can fish from the back deck? Cell phone service can be spotty but it wasnt terrible. Ultimately we enjoyed our stay.

The igniter for the pilot lite on the main heat source doesn't work. Had to take apart the fireplace to manually light it. Luckily i had a lighter in my truck because there was none to be found in the cabin. Took about 2 hours after we got there before we got the building to a comfortable temperature even with the electric space heater in the bedroom. Half the light bulbs in there dont work or flash on and off. Broken floor tiles hidden underneath rugs.Great day time hot tub, horrible after dark, there are no working lights on the patio by the hot tub so you cant see what your doing getting in or out. Cleqning company also left their cleaning supplies on the bathroom counter. My favorite part was my check out time said 11am and we had the two cleaning ladys show up at 10:30am and try to walk inside while we were still packing up all our stuff. Will definitely not stay here again.

We stayed here for a week for our honeymoon. We did struggle to find it with the address on VRBO but eventually found it. It is right on the river with a hot tub. The hot tub was everything we hoped for and more. It was hot with great views. It had just enough space for the two of us and was the perfect distance from town. We didn't get lucky enough to see an elk on the river and the sound of the hwy was easily drowned out with a fan. My only complaint would be the no A.C. as it was 95° the first day of our trip. Ans on the knit picky side we also could have used a few more towels being there a week with no laundry access and the decor could use updating. But we will definitely be staying here again. We loved it and it was well worth it to be on the river.

Location was ok. Right on the Big Thompson River. Nice to just walk out and fish. Cabin seemed poorly maintained however . When we arrived the coffee pot was dirty. Several floor tiles were loose. Numerous light bulbs were burnt out, Fireplace is broken so when it got cold so we had to use a space heater, Hot tub stopped working during our stay. Also there’s no AC in this cabin only a box fan and since it’s near the highway you get a lot of road noise with the windows open. Spoke with someone from Texas staying in another cabin who said that his cabin was supposed to have a hot tub and there wasn’t even one there, so I guess we were lucky. Not completely horrible but it could have been and should have been so much better.
