Retreat on Old Man Mountain

License #: 3444
On the side of Old Man Mountain you will find the Eagles Nest Mountain Retreat. Rejuvenate your family in the crisp mountain air while overlooking the town of Estes Park below you on the wrap-around deck. Access to 16 acres of private land protected by a conservation easement allows for hiking, bouldering, and gaining the summit of Old Man Mountain for a beautiful view of the valley. 5 bedrooms two suites, loft and a bunk room with a total of 8 beds.

As you come up the driveway you will immediately notice the unique features of this property. Rock outcroppings dominate the landscape in all directions including a very large truck-sized boulder that dominates the opening scene. Behind the house the rocky mountain towers over the property several hundred feet up. The opposite direction provides views of the town in the valley below.

Walk in on the main floor to a cozy living room with a HD Smart TV. Off this living room is a bedroom with a queen bed and attached half bath/laundry combo. Upstairs is the main living room with another HD Smart TV, dining room, and kitchen. This level has a wrap-around deck and 4 large sliding glass doors that invite the indoors and outdoors to become one. Go up a half flight of stairs to the three bedrooms and bathrooms - 4 more steps lead to the loft with two queen beds and TV area. The three bedrooms consist of two suites with attached full bathrooms, and a third bedroom with a queen bed and twin over twin bunk bed.
The Mountain. This property is part of a 16-acre conservation easement that includes a large portion of Old Man Mountain. The mountain is an icon in Estes Park - visible from most places in town. An easy hike to the top renders picturesque vistas in all directions. The easement protects the wildlife habitat and nature of this historic rock which goes back 5000 years when Native Americans used it as a "vision quest" site.
This property allows its guests to get away yet still be so close to town. I don't know that there is another large chunk of land this close to downtown. This property is the last one on the street with a large buffer from everything else - yet you could walk downtown in 15 minutes and see Lake Estes from the deck.

We greatly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house in Estes Park. In addition to the great location, the house was the perfect size for our family with plenty of common area and private space. Recent upgrades to the sitting area and bathrooms are beautiful. The large kitchen was well stocked with pans and utensils and a nice outdoor grill was perfect for preparing family dinners to serve around the large dining room table. The view from the large deck was fantastic. We highly recommend this beautiful home for your vacation.

We were a party of five adults and one toddler. This property suited all of our needs. Not only was it exactly as presented in photos, the surrounding area was even better. David was fantastic about communicating with me and answering any questions. We will definitely be coming to stay again. Eagles Nest is an absolute gem!!

Location, location, location! The property is in the best area of Estes Park, with views, places to explore, and serenity of nature. We had teenagers and adults, ages 12 to 78, and it was enjoyed by all. Host was responsive to needs and easy to communicate with. We especially appreciated the multiple bathrooms, including next to the downstairs bedroom. Property is as pictured - the open living area is great for gathering. Added bonus - we were there over July 4th and watching the fireworks from the deck while avoiding all the traffic was fantastic!

This was our first time to stay in Estes Park and it definitely won’t be our last! The home was absolutely amazing and perfect for our family. Located at the end of a road, there was no traffic driving through so it was quiet and you feel like you are way out even though only a mile or so from the Safeway. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and our kids (ages 13, 9, and 6) LOVED the loft area. Our only regrets were not bringing friends with us to enjoy it and not being able to stay longer! Thank you for opening your beautiful home to us!

Gorgeous location in a beautiful home! We at 10 adults staying at the place over New Years and it was the perfect location with an open living area perfect for group gatherings and large meals. Nice and close to the Stanley too. The owner warned us ahead of time that the driveway was steep and was not joking. So make sure your have an AWD or FWD vehicle with winter tires if you’re staying over the winter. David was excellent to communicate with too and easily reached by texting.
