Met family for Thanksgiving, seven of us. Had a great Thanksgiving meal there. Best VRBO kitchen we could have hoped for. Had pretty much every kitchen pan and gadget we needed, The pantry was also very generously stocked. plus a freezer full of waffles! Location was fantastic, just down the road from good food and a grocery store. 10min from downtown Estes Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, and the YMCA of the Rockies. The views from the wrap around deck are gorgeous. We had deer in the yard nearly every day. Mary's lake which was just a bit down the road looked beautiful, we didn't get to stop by and regret we didn't. Internet access worked great. The house had several features we didn't take advantage of. Including a few grills, a hot tub.and fishing equipment, The host was incredibly responsive, and easy to get a hold of. We had a special request and are very appreciative of how incredibly accommodating he was. This place is a great value, clean, super comfortable. I would definitely book again.

The house was perfect-we were to have 10 guests but four were unable to join us due to school and work commitments. My nephew was able to join us so we did have a group of 7, 3 of which had never visited Colorado including my youngest grandson, age 17. The younger folks loved the hot tub and used it at least 3 times. As far as the kitchen, I've never rented a home or condo that was as stocked with everything you could possibly need. The home was clean and lacked for nothing. We also enjoy having several game nights as the owners have lots of games to choose from. Thank you for everything! This home was perfect and I hope to return in the next year of so with my folks who couldn't come along last week and we will definitely look at staying at this home once again.

Most Amazing sunrises over Mary’s Lake. Fully stocked kitchen. Great layout of the home. So many places to eat and hang. The kids favorite was the ground squirrels that would take peanuts and carrots from the kids. We will 100% book again based on amenities and location. However, the host was amazing as well. Excellent communication and attention to details. Definitely book this one. You will not regret it!

This place has it all. Gary is a fantastic host and always available for questions or concerns. Location is fantastic for Rocky Mountain National Park and downtown Estes. Entertainment center set-up is insane. My family loves this place and we hope to be back. Gary is always available but I think the best thing I can say is that we didn’t need him because everything you need is already there with excellent instructions. Can’t recommend any higher.

Gary’s property was very clean, spacious and accommodating for our group of 9. Plenty of bedrooms and baths, an abundantly appointed kitchen and inviting hot tub made our stay comfortable and homey! Gary was very responsive with our questions. The view from the deck was wonderful and he has plenty of outdoor seating (grills) to encourage time outside. The kids got a kick out of the Wii, also! The house’s proximity to RMNP is a plus, as well as to downtown Estes, groceries & gas. The only caution we would leave is to bring your ear plugs if you are an adult sleeping downstairs. The fan on the HVAC is very loud overnight, which wasn’t an issue for the kids but did disturb the adults. We did try turning off the unit overnight but woke up cold. We never quite found the balance during our stay. Other than that, our experience was excellent!
