Excellent location. Aerial tram and downtown were within short walking distance. Beautiful cabin and great host. Bed was comfortable. The sound of the river across the street was wonderful. We did miss having a table for eating and game playing, but otherwise perfect.

Unfortunately, due to the flight cancellations that happened , we missed the first 3 days of our 5 days stay. However, the 2 days that we were there the owners were very accommodating and stayed in touch via texts everyday. Cheryl and Rick were very good hosts.

Wonderful stay!

We really enjoyed our stay, and Cheryl and Rick were excellent hosts! Rick took some time to share with us his knowledge of fly fishing, which led us to book a guided fly fishing tour in town, and we had a great time! Cheryl was super responsive to all of our questions and was very accommodating. Thank you for a fabulous visit!

Eclectic Cabin

The cabin was well maintained and our hosts went out of their way to help my wife and I celebrate our anniversary. The decor definitely speaks “mountain life”. Located right across the street from the serenity of the running river. They even have a little sitting area there for your enjoyment. You can walk to breweries, restaurants, and downtown Estes if you choose. Sidewalks are limited so we just chose to drive. We are so thankful for all Rick and Cheryl did. Their hospitality is incredible.

Cozy cabin in a perfect location!

Redemption Cabin is the perfect location, just a few minutes walk from downtown Estes Park stores and restaurants. It’s clean, cozy and comfortable, extremely well-equipped, and was ideal for myself, my husband, and my 15 year old son. Currently (August 2023) there is construction along Riverside Drive, which can be noisy at times, and goes until late (around 10:30pm) on weekdays. However, that is completely outside of the host’s control, and is a temporary issue. Guests may want to be aware that neither of the bedrooms have doors, which didn’t bother our family at all. Cheryl & Rick were kindly flexible on our check-in time when our flight was changed, for which we were very grateful, and it was lovely to be greeted in person by Cheryl upon our arrival. Overall, highly recommend Redemption Cabin as a base for your RMNP adventures!

Perfect Get Away

This cabin was perfect for an active get away in Estes Park. It is in a great location within walking distance to downtown to grab dinner and shop as well as quick drives to park entrances for hikes and exploring! The cabin also had everything we needed for our stay. Cheryl and Rick are lovely! They met us at the cabin when we checked in and provided us with great info on Estes and RMNP. Ricks hike recommendation’s were amazing and when the coffee pot gave us trouble Cheryl replaced it within hours! Great hosts, great cabin, great area! 10/10!!! Thank you for a great stay!

Rick & Cheryl were amazing hosts. My daughter and I felt very safe in their wonderful, historic cabin. It was so nice to be able to walk to town, yet also be surrounded by nature. The cabin was very clean, the kitchen was fully stocked and the beds were nice and comfortable. Highly recommended for a small family or couple.

The cabin has everything you'd need and nothing you don't. It was a very short walk to the main street and right across the road from the river. Be sure to check out Ed's Cantina and Penelope's Burgers for great meals and Trendz for shopping. Cheryl and Rick were great hosts!
