Counting Stars in Estes Park Colorado

Can't say enough about D'Rae and Michelle. They are the best hosts and the property was very well kept with impeccable views. I had an issue with my personal vehicle and the hosts accommodated us with an extension of our stay. They are simply the BEST.

Great place. I’ll go back.

The cabin is at least as good as the pictures show. We stayed a few days, drove and hiked the park, toured the Stanley, and had the best vacation I can remember.

This place ROCKS!

Clean and cozy place for the two of us. Great dark sky for watching the stars. Coffee on the deck in the morning watching the deer graze. Easy drive to restaurants and national park. Stanley Hotel for drinks and then catch "The Shining" movie at the theater in Estes. Awesome stay!

I actually didn’t stay there, I booked the cabin for my daughter and son-in-law. But they said it was great!! They saw wildlife nearby, the views were stunning and town was close by. They really enjoyed their stay!!

30th Anniversary Trip

Counting Stars Cabin was absolutely perfect for us! This sweet little cabin was secluded, yet close to everything. It had everything we needed for a three night stay. Cozy and inviting, the bed was so comfortable, just the right amount of space for two people, lovely deck with a grill and propane fire pit, and so quiet and serene. Whether star-gazing at night, or waking up to see a family of deer eating on the property, we can't say enough about how wonderful this place was to celebrate our milestone. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Disappointed with host communication

First and foremost I contacted host via VRBO asking possible early check in I was informed to text when in town to see if cabin was ready. I contacted host and NEVER received a response. I needed to get WIFI to check on hometown where a major hurricane was coming. Pros: location is great for absolutely quiet sleep and star watching. Bed is super comfortable. Kitchen is well equipped. Cabin was spotless. Couch and recliner are very comfortable. Cons: bathroom is not in bedroom, must walk through living area to get to bathroom. Front door needs fixing as the deadbolt lock doesn’t work properly because door being uneven. It’s a weird feeling being out there with no deadbolt on. Shower is super small. It listed supplies provided by host included shampoo, there was none. Dishwashing sponge was not new, Ive never had a wet used sponge to use as a guest. I was ok with the previously used body liquid soap. This is my absolute honest opinion and I hope it helps others and host.

Coming Back!

Love the location - secluded and serene with spectacular views. Another plus is downtown shops and restaurants are close by. The cabin was perfectly sized and had everything we needed for a great stay. My husband and I enjoyed spending time on the deck. We're looking forward to making a return visit next year.

Amazing Property

Let me start by saying I do not leave very many reviews. But my wife and I stayed here for 4 nights and absolutely loved everything about this place. We loved the fact that you are only a few minutes from town but feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. The views are amazing. It is very clean.

Spectacular Counting Stars Cabin - Breath taking

Can't say enough great things about this place. Perfect for me & my man. Advertised as newly renovated and it was, boy it was fabulously decorated, comfortable inside and out. Great location for privacy, live deer frolicking through the property, stars felt like you could grab them, abundance of Elk, chimpmonks, rabbits and amazing sunrise & sunsets. Perfect location, walkable to the town, although we drove most of the time so we could explore the area for live animals! I highly reccomend this quaint cottage!

Great Little Cabin High in the Mountains

What a great cabin. The cabin has fabulous views and is nicely done inside and out. The neighborhood is super quiet and we didn't have any issues with surrounding properties. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed for our stay. We didn't have any issues during our stay, so we never contacted the property manager, but the phone numbers we posted in a couple of places, just in case. The bed was super comfy and we had plenty of linens. The closet is large and also has a dresser for clothing. All the appliances were in good working order. There is a small window unit in the bedroom, but we didn't need it even in late July. We just used the ceiling fans in the bedroom and living room. I would definitely recommend this cabin for a single or couple. It is close to town for easy access, but far enough away to be out of the hustle of downtown.

Our best stay ever in Estes Park

We have stayed in many rental homes in the Estes Park area over the years. For my wife and I, this was by far the best. Counting Stars cabin was perfect for two. It was comfortable, clean and complete. But the location was outstanding! Terrific views off the deck to the north and east. Secluded, isolated and quiet--we were a 3 minute drive from the SuperValue/downtown yet the cabin is located such that you wouldn't know there was a town within 10 miles. Only one other small cabin is visible from the property. Wildlife was abundant. When we travel as a couple only, this will be our preferred place to stay in Estes Park. We loved this place!
