Riverfront house on large property - Monthly rental May to September

Walk out the front door and fish for trout on the Big Thompson River! Hike on over 200 acres of mountains or walk on the 1 mile gravel road up the draw for those looking for a relaxing morning walk. Drive a short 3.5 miles into Estes Park for shopping and dining. Rocky Mountain National Park is a must! Enjoy watching the river and be on the look out for wildlife roaming the property.

This home was originally built in the 30s, and renovated in 1967. It has been enjoyed by families for decades. While our cabin is an older home, I assure you it is very comfortable and homey. The property has breathtaking views of the Big Thompson River and amazing up close outcroppings right at the back door! Newly listed on VRBO, this home has been loved by renters for many years and is the perfect getaway for large families!

The main level consist of the living room area which is carpeted with leather furniture, a dining area, kitchen, main bedroom, two bathrooms, and laundry room. The upstairs holds an additional two bedrooms. Perfect for the children!

The kitchen is stocked with your basic appliances and has everything you would need to cook at home.

The home has an assortment of games, puzzles, books, and cards for rainy days. We also have WiFi so you can stay connected.

Star gazing, playing in the small stream running down the the river, and hummingbird watching are family favorites at the cabin... what will be your favorite activity?

Great place to stay. The house is a bit older but has been very well maintained and cared for. The river out front is amazing, and you are about 20 minutes from the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park!

Great stay

We really enjoyed our stay in Estes Park. Being able to hike up the road from the house, on the property, was very nice. The drive from the property to Estes Park was only about 3 miles and was like a picture postcard every time we went into town. The house had more than enough room and everything you would need for an enjoyable stay. Robin always communicated with us in a very timely manner. It was a good value, and we would highly recommend.

More than you could ask for

It's difficult to know where to start about this incredible property. I'll have to admit I was skeptical due to the age of the house. I never expected to travel back in time to my Grandmother's house. It has lot's of quirky charm. We have been to Estes Park many times, but staying 32 days at this sweet home made it my favorite vacation of all time. (And we travel a lot!) Just outside the door is a beautiful hike up the private road, and of course the river is incredible too. Robin was so nice to work with. He addressed any questions immediately. When you walk in the door, you feel the love of the owner's precious family. Thank you so much for sharing your blessing with others. We can't always get away for 30 days, but if this house ever rents for shorter terms we would be back over and over.

Travel RN with family

Was a great location for myself and family after traveling to Estes Park for a travel assignment, a nice little getaway. The river out front is beautiful, as well as the property and hiking behind the house. Was large enough for my husband, 3 year old, and dog; we were all very comfortable. Good communication with the host. It is an old house, just a couple issues with plumbing in the tub that never got resolved and some flies that they sent the handy man over for. Overall would highly recommend
