Fantastic Log Cabin House
Our family, adults and three teens, thoroughly enjoyed our Estes Park vacation at this property. Great, quiet location, amenities, open floor plan, wild animal viewing, fishing in the river, walks to the store/ice cream and close to RMNP entrance. Highly recommend!

Wonderful cabin
House was large and very equipped with things you needed or might have forgotten to bring. We saw mule deer , elk and turkey nearby. Quiet area. We were comfortable. Recommend better vacuum for cleaning and thorough dusting for cobwebs in house.

Amazing property!!
This beautiful cabin is tucked in the middle of this amazing property. We had elk visit us every evening while we were sitting on the beautiful porch overlooking the property. We really enjoyed sitting in the hot tub star gazing every night. We were close to estes park and close to the rocky mountain national park entrance. I will be going back and staying at this beautiful home again next year!!

Perfect family cabin
This is a beautiful property with all the amenities you need. Stayed here with my husband and 1 year old son, and both sets of grandparents. Adequate space, clean, and an abundance of wildlife viewings from the huge picture windows. Great location to the park, while being private and quiet! Highly recommend.

It was good wish there was more communication about things happening in town like special events. House is great but the biting bugs at the property this year made sitting by the river impossible.
