From the owner

Do not be fooled. This cabin is 1.5 miles from Estes Park City limit, 3.5 miles from Estes Park City, 7.5 miles from Rocky Mountain National Park ( google verified ). We were part of Estes Park and just got rezoned. You cannot be much closer to all of the world class attractions.

Come and stay at our fabulous cabin by the river. All new furniture, appliances, and mattresses. See our new pictures.

Historic 1920's Riverfront vacation cottage in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Located just outside downtown Estes Park on the banks of the Big Thompson River. Picturesque surroundings with towering Ponderosa pines, the Canyon, and the Big Thompson river!

Decorated tastefully in a seashell and nautical theme, you will enjoy this newly decorated abode. The bathroom is graced with a claw foot tub and shower.

A picnic area is provided in front of the cottage beside the river. The Big Thompson River is very wide at this point and there is even a small island in the middle right in front of the property. There is a family of ducks living at this point in the river. It is known to be one of the best fly fishing areas too and you have private entry to the river!

Behind the cabin, there is steeper terrain with many rock outcropping, very scenic! A very large rock formation can be found to the right rear of the cabin. Beautiful scenery from every single window.

Come and stay at our fabulous cabin by the river.

We ask guests to care for our cottage as though it were their own. After your departure, if it takes more than 3 hours to clean, you will be charged an extra $45/hour for additional hours.

Q. How close is the home to Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) and the town of Estes Park?

A. The cabin accommodates 2 adults comfortably and can accommodate 4. The second bedroom is small. Only 4 guests and one vehicle are allowed (in the designated parking area) as per Estes Park Renting Laws. The cottage is situated on a small trail by the river surrounded by trees.

Parking for an extra vehicle, if needed, is is available near the paid parking center near the visitor center approximately 3.5 miles away.

Q. Is there air conditioning, heat, and a washer-dryer?

A. There is no air conditioning as it is very rarely needed. It becomes very cool at night and sleeping is always comfortable. Daytime is also comfortable if the blinds are down during peak sun into the cabin. There is no washer-dryer in the cabin. However, you can use the coin laundry located near the Safeway center. We have electrical baseboards in each room for heat during winter.

Q. Is the cabin secluded and what is the level of road noise?

A. The cabin is not secluded and is near other cabins. However, the owners of these cabins are rarely there. Most river-side cabins in Estes park are located close to a road since the road are constructed along the river. Our cabin is no exception. You can see the bridge from our cabin, and the gushing Big Thompson river drowns some road noise.

Loved the cabin. Well stocked and excellent location. The only issue is getting back on Hwy 34 heading toward Estes. Enjoyed my stay.
