BEST VIEW in Estes Park! 1 of 2 Adjacent Stunning Cabins on Lake Estes #3459

We welcome you to the Rocky Mountains!

Larimer County Approval Number: 20-NCD0266

This is one of two cabins adjacent to each other. Our other cabin next door: VRBO Listing 762500. Each cabin can individually have up to 12 people. Each cabin has 5 bedrooms. We do not discount when renting them both at the same time.

Each has a hot tub, 120" projection TV with cable & wifi. Both have stunningly views of the lake and share a driveway and 2 1/2 acres. This listing is only for one cabin, please check each calendar separately for availability.

Tesla / Electric vehicle chargers installed

Foosball on the outdoor covered porch

8 person Bullfrog HotTub professionally cleaned weekly on Mondays. The water in this cabin is well water and may be hard or off color at times in reaction to the hot tub chemicals.

This beautiful mountain home is ready for you to enjoy the Rocky Mountains and the National Park's 100th year anniversary! Right on Lake Estes, 1mi from town and on a 3mi walking loop, w/ fishing right off the property! Minutes walk from the best fly fishing in the area and from a kids activity center w/ go carts, mini golf, & batting cages. Free Estes Town shuttle drives by the house during summer season. Elk bugling in the fall. Perfect for family reunions, weekend getaways, and nature viewing year round!!!

PLEASE NOTE: our four cabins in Grand Lake and Estes Park are a 35 year family business. We are not a hotel, we do our best to make sure that every guest and group are happy. The cabins are in the mountains and therefore small furry and crawly friends may visit from time to time, especially in the late fall. All of our cabins are NO SMOKING inside or on the decks and patios, the Rocky Mountains are under constant fire danger and our cabins are all made of wood. We also want to respect the smells and preferences of other guests. If our onsite managers smell smoke of any type then the entire deposit is forfeit. Our cabins in Estes Park are on well systems. That means the sinks can have streaks when clean and the HOT TUBS can be off color as the minerals react with the cleaning chemicals. The water is safe to drink and clean! PETS are allowed in BOTH cabins, however, we only cater to dogs and only very well behaved ones. This cabin can have 1 dog, the other only 2. Please keep dogs crated when not home. We do not have dog runs at this time. Please clean up after dogs. We require an additional cleaning fee for pet dander and rug shampoo so that our allergic guests are also happy. This does not cover cleaning up after dogs outside. Please clean up after your dogs. We charge a $50 pet fee for EACH dog that is not usually reflected in the price quote. FIRE: wood burning is not allowed in Estes Park vacation rentals inside or outside so there are heated electric fireplaces on both floors. PARKING: the driveways are large and we have room for 6 vehicles at each house, but we want to be good neighbors and Estes Park has made it illegal to have more than 4 so we only permit 3 without contacting us before you book so we can make sure that both cabins aren't simultaneously full. CAMERAS: we have live closed circuit cameras on the driveways, the main decks, and the water front. These are for safety and security and are only accessed by the owner. There are no recording devices anywhere inside the cabins

CANCELLATION POLICY:
We keep a non-refundable fee of 10% if the reservations is cancelled within 6 months of check-in
50% if cancelled within 90 days
100% if cancelled within 30 days.
Our cabins book a year out, it's more difficult to make last minute arrangements so VRBO recommends getting their insurance against cancelations for medical and other last minute issues.
Make yourself comfortable in this cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take advantage of recreation opportunities such as a spa tub, or other amenities including an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access, onsite parking, and a car charging station.

Right on Lake Estes
The 180 degree views from both living rooms are great, as are the ones from the decks adjoining them. The property itself has a strong rustic look and feel and is easy to relax in. It's a short drive from the free parking near downtown and a pleasant walk if you're so inclined. The only concerns our group encountered were the difference in the hot tub available off the general list versus what one sees after booking, and that the water filter seemed to be in need of replacing. A minor note: the end of the driveway where you park is particularly soft, which was a problem for the lone motorcycle that made the trip, but it was able to be parked up the driveway without issue.

Great place for our family.
This home worked out really well for us—a wonderful space over the Christmas holiday for our adult family of 8. Owner, Mike, was super helpful—as was his dad who lives nearby. With vacation rentals you sometimes wonder what property the owner was thinking when they wrote the description, but not so with this one. It was accurately described and pictured—maybe even undersold. As often is the case with rentals that get used a lot there were a few nits, but nothing that appreciably affected our stay. Views are spectacular, space is generous and functional, and owner communication and support was outstanding. Thanks, Mike, for helping us build some wonderful memories with our family!

Big house with great views!
Great place, easy to find and check in. We rented both homes on the property for a family reunion and we loved them! The view is gorgeous and the houses were more than large enough. We had a couple issues: we saw several mice inside the larger house, one of the ovens was not working, and the property manager did not communicate as readily as we would have liked (I reached out on VRBO to the property manager about these issues and didn't hear a reply). Otherwise, a great place for family gatherings and we were very happy with our selection of these properties.

Amazing property. Two levels of wraparound porch with incredible views of the lake and mountains. Excellent set up for a large group-- ample seating both upstairs and downstairs for our group of nine. Easy access to great hikes-- we did the gem lake trail a short eight minute drive away. Hope we can return sometime!

Great View but wouldn't stay again
Pros - Great view of lake and location and room for the family. Cons- Seems to be a long version of a remodel. Lots of things that need repair or are broken (bathtub won't hold water, screen doors are broken and won't close properly, and numerous other issues. Owner uses part of property for construction storage. Yard is unkept. Basement smells like urine (complained to owner but never heard back). Not enough glasses and silverware for everyone to use if eating in. Pots and pans are dirty and uncleaned. For the price, we've stayed in much nicer... but the view of the lake is tremendous.

Great location in the Rockies
Overall, this was a great vacation. The cabin itself was nice and functional. The location was beautiful with lots of windows and a huge deck overlooking Lake Estes and the surrounding Rocky Mountains. It was very convenient to RMNP. The finishing touches of the cabin could have been better-trim missing, screen doors nonfunctional, and a lot of building material strewn around the property. However, we were able to overlook most of this as the location and view were amazing!

Beautiful views!
This is such a great spot! This was our first time in Estes Park and we were looking for a social distancing getaway with our fur babies and friends. Even though this is very close to the main road, you do not notice at all. The views are spectacular, the house is perfect for a larger group and the house was fully stocked with literally every item you might need! We had a small issue with one of the showers and the owner came and fixed it immediately, plus gave us a sweet New Years gift for the kids and adults! We will definitely be back and would totally recommend this to anyone looking for relaxing getaway!

Nice House - not great experience
We just returned from our Colorado escape from quarantine in Estes Park at Lake Haus. And, while the house itself is very nice and quite spacious - even quite updated and the view of the lake is spectacular, there were several things about this house that would make us not recommend for future rentals. The main reason was the number of mice in and around the house due to the large piles of construction debris that is stored in the driveway and along the non-lake side of the property. We should have known when we found mice-traps placed around the house that it might be an issue. We had to dispose of two of them that were caught ourselves. Also, Mike was not very responsive. I had tried to contact him weeks in advance about our intention to bring a dog along on our trip and never received a response (just noticed after the fact that we were charged for the dog, but with no notification that was happening), even after multiple attempts to connect. We also did not receive lock/access instructions to the property until we drove into town the day of our arrival (again, multiple attempts to get hold of Mike and get the info, with his voicemail greeting stating that he was "Out of the country") - Mike did call my cell phone and provided the instructions as we were driving around Estes Park before check-in time, stating that he would follow up with an email - which we never received. The final issue with this house is the proximity to the main highway going into Estes Park itself, as it runs along side the property so what might be a peaceful lake-front time on the extended deck (which is a very nice deck with a hot-tub, which was nice but the cover was broken so you could only open it half-way), was not relaxing due to the excessive noise from passing traffic. All and all, I would not recommend this house for anyone looking for a relaxing mountain/lakefront escape.
