Beautiful River View

Beautiful cabin along the river. Perfect size for a family of four. Missing a few non essentials but nothing that would keep us from returning again. The view and sounds of the river was amazing and just what was needed for a relaxing vacation!

Nice cabin

Enjoyed our stay! Excellently located near Estes Park. Place was clean and very cozy feeling. Would not recommend for older adults or people who have trouble with stairs. Could use an extra mirror or two in the bedrooms as one bathroom mirror wasn’t convenient with wife and daughter along. Overall would highly recommend.

Very nice home in a great location

This is a very nice place to launch your vacation in RMNP and Estes Park CO. The house was clean and quiet and the Thompson River going right under the deck was pretty awesome. Also it was equipped with everything we needed. From the pictures we assumed the house was situated more away from other places, but even though this is a well populated little valley it really didn’t matter. Lots of winding roads coming from Loveland, but once at the house it is a quick 2 miles into Estes Park. Glad we stayed here.

Oct 2020 Stay

This property is suggested for 6. I'd say 4 max. Posting that theres a state wide fire ban would have been nice. Or responding to my email prior to check in would have solved that. There were tons of nails & screws under the car port. Hoping we dont have a few in our tires...however, the view was priceless & the cabin was clean and cozy.

Beautiful property

This property is very pretty, just as pictured. Close to Estes Park, about 3 minutes. I would definitely stay again. Extremely clean. Just a suggestion, owner needs to add more mirrors, there is only one in the bathroom, it makes it hard to get ready with only one. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone.

Three nights River Cabin

We enjoyed our stay and had nice hot showers, warm meals after camping in snow at Thunder lake. Very comfortable accommodations with necessary amenities. We also had some good fly fishing on the property during a few mornings. The treat of a close encounter with a bachelor group of bull elk on the island eating browse and crossing the river. Would definitely stay again or recommend.

Weekend stay

Good location from Estes with an easy 10 min drive. Property could use some new outdoor furniture. Kitchen was equipped with just the basics and very thin and warped pan. It was warm clean and comfortable and a good place for hiking.

Estes Park stay

It's a cute cozy place nestled at the foot of a mountain. Beautiful setting. However, the place was dim. Not enough lighting. No mirrors in the place other than the one over the vanity with a very dim light. Not enough to do do one's make-up or shave. Also, no hairdryer. Most annoying was the shower water pressure. Barely there. Took 20 minutes to get the soap off. The owner did not respond to my request to adjust it.

Great location, close to Estes

Property is located in a great area, very convenient to Estes without being in the middle of the crowds. The bedrooms were nice and comfortable. A couple of items need attention: The grill and patio need to be cleaned. Cigarette butts still in the outside ash tray/bucket. A lot of the outlets and several lights didn't work.
