A mini-reunion sparked by a local family wedding. This house - which promotes family-time and get-togethers - worked out well over the July 4th weekend. It was remote enough for some quiet - but also very close to the Estes Park fun. We had family in the area that came to visit during the day - and a handful of us comfortably enjoyed the house for a couple of evenings. It worked out perfectly for what we were looking for.
Our family enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. We found it super easy to get to Rocky Mountain National Park and to Estes Park. With bedrooms on three floors, it was easy to spread out but the middle floor is a great place to gather. We ate most of our meals outside on the deck but loved the big dining room table for family games. In the kitchen, we made use of both ovens, which both worked very well. Supplies provided included plenty of TP, soap, dishwasher detergent, trash sacks plus lotion in every bathroom. The latter item was much appreciated in this dry climate. Karine was easy breezy to work with. We would definitely stay here again.
Our two families stayed comfortably in this beautiful log cabin! You will have lots of room to spread out and are provided with many comforts from your own home. Please donât let any reviews that talk about distance from Estes Park deter you! We were at most 10 minutes from everything! We are from WV and used to traveling a lot longer to get to restaurants and shopping. RMNP does not disappoint! If you are looking for a vacation with comfort but without someone else on top of you, this is the spot for you. Karine was quick to respond to any message that I had. Great placeâŠ.we would stay again! John and Family.
This was the perfect place for our family (adult kids). Lots of common area spaces. The dining table was big enough that we could have a puzzle.out at one end and eat at the other!The house was very clean and had everything we needed. It had a great secluded feeling, yet very close to Estes Park if needed.Karine was easy to communicate with.
What a lovely and perfect place for a multi generational family stay. We enjoyed the scenery, walked the property and had enough room for all 8 of us to spread out. Great access to Estes Park and RMNP.
House was beautiful. Needs attention to details. Linens were old, door wouldnât easily catch blowing open at night, etc. Management responded quickly to requests. Beautiful location.
Outside of the steep driveway that can be a bit nerve racking at night and a couple minor maintenance issues that were fixed very timely it was a wonderful place and the property manager was very responsive and nice. Weâd stay there again! Very cozy, fun, and perfect for a getaway!
We were 7 women 50-65 attending a girls wkd in Estes & traveling in 2 different vehicles. Due to a winter storm & closed roads we arrived after dark. We managed to make it to the correct address, barely being able to see the small sign at the drive. We turned in & headed up the road, not noticing the road to the immediate left that we SHOULD have taken, because it WASN'T PLOWED. When we continued up the drive we saw a house, but it wasn't the right one, so turned around. Since it was snowy and & icy, the car behind me wasn't able to stop & ended up rear ending my car & nearly sent me over a steep ledge. After 1.5 hours in the 22Âș cold a tow truck arrived & we finally found the house. (maybe a simple "take an immediate left after turning into the drive" would have been helpful) After the accident, I texted the owner & told her of our predicament & that we hadn't even found the house yet, but she didn't bother to respond or ask if we were ok. (I did find a message later on the VRBO app saying "I see you got checked in...") The only other time I heard anything was from the property manager reprimanding us for trying to break firewood on the deck, as they were spying on us on the cameras, apparently.
If you're expecting guests PREPARE YOUR PROPERTY! Plow the driveway and sweep off the flight of stairs so old ladies don't have to drag their luggage thru the snow! Fireplace? Provide some firewood! And clean up the dead bugs everywhere inside your house! Won't be back!
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful mountain home! The house is spacious enough to comfortably fit our entire family, and the privacy it offers made it feel like our own little getaway. Just a short drive to Estes Park, the location is ideal for exploring nearby attractions while still enjoying a peaceful escape in the mountains. The fun, bear-themed decor added a charming touch and made the space feel extra cozy. We couldnât have asked for a better place to relax. Highly recommend this spot for a memorable family vacation!
The home itself was beautiful and gave all the space and then some that we needed. I was not disappointed. However, the location was completely false. We booked this location because of the advertised location being only a mile from the wedding venue and downtown Estes Park. Boy were we in for a surprise when we showed up. We received an email the day before informing us of a different address. I did not bother to look up because I assumed it was just an address near by. We showed up to the address that was emailed to us and it was 6.8 miles away from downtown Estes. This was a HUGE inconvience because we were all a part of a wedding party for a wedding that was downtown. We had to spend over $500 in transportation to get from and too all wedding events. When I reached out to Karine she was responsive but told me "We have been getting this complaint alot". My questions is why are you not informing people of this discrepency right when they book? As the host of our group I was embarrassed with the selection and felt responsible. I will be reaching out to VRBO for a partial refund for the amount we spent on shuttles, if it is not offered by Karine.
This property was perfect for friends and family! Tons of space for everyone, beautiful views, very clean, no complaints! The host was very easy to communicate with and fast to respond. We would definitely book this property again in the future!
Large and roomy but loses points on cleanliness and basic maintenance of house. Cracked toilet seat, dirty pillow cases and bedspreads, many outlets that didnât work.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very spacious and very close to Estes Park. Some issues were the kitchen was not stocked to cook for a large group. The skillets were terrible. Neither blow dryer worked. I would stay again but not trust the place has everything advertised.
We had a fabulous family week! It was so nice staying in a beautiful log cabin big enough for our entire family to be together. It is very spacious and we were able to spread out with plenty of room for everyone. It was perfect and we would love to go back!
A major storm blew through the day I arrived and it was impossible to get to the original property. I was offered another property on short notice and kept well up to date with developing events.
In light of the weather Iâd say the property managers were very responsive and we made the best of the situation.
Only dinging a few points since the location of the original property is incorrect, and is instead roughly 10 minutes away by car. On the map it looked walking distance to town but this is not correct.
Overall a very nice stay.
Our only complaint is that we didnât stay longer! Spent the weekend as a family of 5-wood burning fire, cards and games, and exploring Estes Park. Weâll be back!
