Great home in the heart of Estes Park
This was a beautiful three bedroom home located just 5 minutes walk from the corner of Estes Park. Spectacular view from rear of house. If you’re looking for a place that’s close to RMNP, look no further!

Conveniently Located Cottage
Great location close to downtown Estes Park, nice views of the mountains in a modest, family-friendly cottage. The acommodations are clean and well cared for, and could benefit from some additional ventilation/odor eliminator.

Little a bit
The cabin is nice and clean. The recliners are old and hard to get out of. The master bedroom bed appears to be newer (king size) and comfortable. Nice views. If anyone has a walk-in inch issue not friendly to walk to town. (Hills)

Centrally located
This house was an older home, but maintained well on the inside. Everything you could have needed was inside - we even did a puzzle over the 4 days. Outside could have used some TLC (bushes, shrubs, walk areas. The manager was easy to get in touch with before we arrived, and answered all of our questions. It was easy to get to, and was centrally located to town, shops, and the mountains. Great views! Overall satisfied, but for the cleaning fee they should have had the outside and walk areas clean and clear.

great location and comfortable place
Great location which was perfect for a trip to the National Park. House was cute and comfortable. A few tweaks and would give excellent rating-- but dishwasher was not working and washer arm detached. No communication about this from management. No dishwasher detergent and lacking in a few extras of TLC like instructions on tv, and coffee with sweetener available and not just what was left over from previous tenants. Outside lights had about half the bulbs out. Enjoyed it regardless--

A Cozy Escape
This home was just what we needed. Super cozy and the location was perfect. Views of the Rocky Mountains and Stanley Hotel made it extra special. We also enjoyed being able to take a short 5 minute walk to the main strip of stores and restaurants. The house is located just a short drive to the National Park entrance making it easy to get around. We loved coming home to a peaceful escape after a day of exploring. We cant wait to go back. Estes Park and Bear Pause definitely have a place in our Floridian hearts ♥️.
