Perfect location! Views were beautiful! House was plenty big. It is very dated, but everything works. Having to take out the garbage when we departed and having to clean AND put all the dishes away is frustrating. We paid for cleaning!! That’s all part of cleaning.

The property is as described. However, if you are looking for something "fancy." Then keep scrolling. This place is for those who want to truly experience the RMNP. Its a quaint family cabin. PERFECT for my wife and I. Our party was only two, but the house will accommodate more. Very comfortable living room with large windows overlooking the park. When I say overlooking the park, I mean your view shed is bookended with The Twin Sisters peak on the left and Deer Mountain to the right. In the center, Longs Peak, in all its glory. You do see other houses but you are not right on top of each other as the lot is large. On the property you will see deer, elk, a billon chipmunks, maybe a bear, humming bird, birds that will land on your hand...and bobcats. My wife and I saw (on property) all but the bear.We will definitely stay here again!

Amazing place to stay

My friends and I had an amazing time at Estes Park, and it is largely thanks to the hosts that were kind enough to let us stay at this property. The recommendations for food and hiking were the most useful to us throughout the week as visitors! The grill was used twice to make burgers, and the views were absolutely stunning. While hanging out on the deck, we were able to see mule deer and elk close to the house! We played chess and checkers almost every night since they have a little wall of games and puzzles. If I ever visit Estes Park again, I hope this property is available!

Good place to stay

Nice house on a hill with great view of mountains. Elk roam the area and we saw a large bull right off our porch. The house is older but is well maintained. The 6 of us had no issues with it and were pleased with it. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen adequately stocked with pots and plates etc.

Wonderful stay AGAIN!

This was our second stay at the "On the Rocks" house in Estes Park. I am hoping for a third! Beautiful views of the mountains, snow and wildlife, cozy fireplace and a well appointed kitchen. On of my favorite places! We noticed a lot of upgrades to the house - new, comfy mattresses, kitchen and bath faucets and more cleaning (much appreciated!) had been done since our initial visit. We hosted family and friends, and all were extremely complimentary of the house and mattresses! Aaron and Ed are very accommodating! Easily reachable. The location of the house is very convenient to the lovely downtown area, fabulous restaurants and an easy drive to Denver international airport. We are always saddened to depart this bit of heaven on earth.

Great location, perfect cabin feel yet near town

We really enjoyed our stay. We had everything we needed to cook meals, it was so nice to have a good gathering space for family, the proximity to the Rocky Mountain National Park was fantastic, and downtown Estes Park was great too. The mountain views were phenomenal and the wildlife was really fun to watch. It was a bit difficult to cool the house down on hot days, but I think we picked a really hot week to go. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay. Will recommend to friends and family.

A great spot in EP!

I look for a house with a Longs Peak view and this home was great with it’s fabulously big deck. Our host reminded us to lock the top on the trashcan because neighbors said there had been bears in the neighborhood. To our delight, 3 days later there were 2 juvenile bears wrestling in the yard and crossing the driveway. The first sighting ever in Estes Park, and although it was early in the season we saw and heard a bull elk bugling which we love. I haven’t mentioned that the home was perfect for our family. The 4 bedrooms gave us privacy but also large gathering spaces. A very clean and well kept home. We thoroughly enjoyed your home and our stay! Thank you for hosting us.

Amazing views, amazing property

I think the deck with a view of Long's Peak did it for me but the whole property and house are fantastic. About a mile from the park entrance and just a short drive to downtown Estes. House has neighbors but not close and you feel secluded. Lots of books, movies to watch (kids watched several movies), games. I can't begin to tell you how great it was. Any questions I had Aaron answered immediately. We would all (10 of us, me, my kids and 5 grandkids - almost 2, 8, 9 and 10 year olds) would all stay again and recommend it highly. The dishwasher, washer & dryer, comfy furniture, recommendations for food (mmm Poppy's pizza), hikes.... Thanks, Aaron & family!

Beautiful and convenient to national park

This was a beautiful and clean house. The views were amazing - the photos online don't do it justice. Really incredible. We did a lot of long hikes starting early in the morning. Then we returned to the house and relaxed and rested weary feet in the afternoons watching the "summer monsoons" pass across the peaks which was pretty magical.The location was perfect - just minutes from one of the park entrance station which made it easier on those early morning "timed entry" passes. There is a small grocery store just down the hill too, so it was easy to pick up supplies and cook our own meals and buy hiking food for our daypacks. We loved this place and would definitely recommend it. Communication with the owners was very clear and easy.

Week trip with friends

Aaron, Heidi, and Ed were great hosts and easy to work with. The check-in process was a breeze, the location of the house was tremendous, and the views of the Rocky Mountains were great from sunrise to sundown. The house was spacious, easily able to accommodate our party of 5, and the grill made for some great afternoon grilling after a long day of hiking. The only thing we were concerned about was the lack of air conditioning but by strategically opening the windows to get a cool breeze and closing the shades during the hottest parts of the day we were able to cool down the house to our liking. Thanks, Aaron, Heidi, and Ed for letting our group use their house to explore Colorado and have a memorable vacation!

Beautiful View, Plenty of Wildlife

The "On The Rocks" estate is a cabin built in the 90s, and it certainly looks the part. But don't let that deter you! This property is wonderfully clean, charmingly decorated, and spacey enough to house a small army. This cabin has a perfect view of the mountains toward the South Side of the park, and you'll see plenty of wildlife wandering through the yard during your stay. It's a breezy 5 minute drive from the cabin to the park entrance. The hosts are very friendly and communicative - we really appreciated all of their helpful tips, activity suggestions, and comprehensive cabin instructions! The heating and cooling are a little fickle, as the air is released via baseboard radiators that are scattered around the cabin, but once we got used to it, we were able to properly control the temperature. I highly recommend!

Fantastic hub for our Colorado vacation

We reviewed many properties before choosing this one. Some of the features that stood out in the listing and came through in our actual stay...the views-SO nice, location-zip right over to the park, the rustic homey feel of the place, the comfy couches and living room area, enough bedrooms for the kids to spread out, laundry, deck, bonus was the sunroom (we had a puzzle going while we were there), all the rooms had what you would expect (towels, dishes, etc). The owners were fantastic to communicate with and helped remind us about those important details like trash day! We had a mixup with silly Amazon being way late with our order and they went above and beyond to help connect the item with us! We saw wildlife on the property, we enjoyed the proximity to the park and town. We took a day trip to Loveland and basically had the Loveland Lazer Tag place to ourselves. Most of the group hiked everyday with the favorites being Alberta Falls, Skypond, and Flattop Mountain. Overall everything was great and we'd stay there again if we have the chance to return in the future!

Wonderful stay at "On the Rocks"!

The house was well furnished. The pinball machine was very popular with us and guests! (.50/game or 5 games for $2.00) Kitchen was outfitted nicely to prepare meals. The gas grill was a bonus. Plenty of room for guests to stay comfortably. The wood burning fireplace was so cozy. We ordered some wood to be delivered and had a fire most evenings. The views from the deck and living room were specular! We had 3 to 4 inches of snow three times. We never tired of the views! Enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and driving all around Estes Park. We were thrilled to see so much wildlife! A lot of mule deer, elk and a bobcat hunting mice on a couple of occasions. Our stay was a month long and we hated to leave. The Acela's were always prompt to address any questions. We would definitely like to return!
