About this property

Beautiful Cabin w/Hot Tub - Just Minutes Away from Estes Park and RMNP!

Rustic living with modern amenities - your home away from home!

Welcome to Elk Haven Retreat of Estes Park, your little piece of paradise! Feel like you have just entered a Disney movie as you sit back on the deck and watch wildlife walk right on by. Take in the amazing views of Rocky Mountain National Park as you smell the scent of wildflowers, pine trees, and lilac floating in the breeze. When you decide you are ready to venture into the wilderness or do a little shopping, dining, or playing, we are a mere 2 miles from the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park and 1.5 miles from downtown Estes Park. Head down the road to the Big Thompson River for world class fly fishing or hike Mary’s Lake.

You will feel like you have arrived at your own home in the mountains. Provided are luxury mattresses and linens. An instant hot water system is provided. Never have to suffer through another cold shower while enjoying the large and spacious shower. There is a washer and dryer on site so that your precious vacation time isn’t spent at the laundromat. We have wireless internet with a strong router signal so that you can stream video on our 56" smart TV. We want you to spend your time enjoying your vacation and not running all over the place trying to find the "little luxuries" to make your time pleasurable. Therefor provided are basic spices, condiments, sugar, flour, paper towels, and cookware. So, all that you have to bring is the main ingredients.

Every room has a view! The cabin is nestled at the bases of Giant Track and Prospect Mountains, near the Beaver Meadows entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park. You can choose to unwind on the comfortable living room furniture, or go outside and enjoy the fire pit and patio furniture located on your private deck. Or for total relaxation, sit in the 5-person Hot Tub and view the galaxy of stars above.

Cleanliness and safety are high priorities for us! We are also a vacationing family ourselves and know what we like to have in the properties we rent. This is a ground-level property, so it is easily accessible to people who find stairs or hills difficult. Sorry, but this is a strict no smoking, no pet property - we wish to respect our guests with allergy sensitivities.

Just right!

The house was just right for our family of five to explore RMNP and Estes Park. Very much as described, hot tub was great post hikes, and plenty of space for five of us. Would stay here again should we return.

Weekend Getaway

We took a little “thanksgiving/christmas/birthday” getaway to celebrate. The home was cozy and had the perfect space for our group of 4 adults and 4 kids under 8. The bunk room was fun for the kids to all stay together (we had to stuff extra pillows and such for some extra safety). The hot tub was an amazing accommodation for us adults!!!

Great house

Location is amazing! House was clean and well supplied with basic needs. Kids loved playing air hockey. If you have a fire stick or Roku maybe think about bringing it for the tv in the bunk room, it has a dvd player but nothing else to connect to streaming apps. Hot tub was clean and worked well. We would definitely stay here again!

The kitchen had so much. We did buy a soup pot and donated it. But they had everything else and more that we didn’t even think of. The host was extremely responsive and answered questions during our stay. The hot tub was amazing as well! We would come back!

We had a great time and made great memories.

Our family opted for an experience over gifts for Christmas this year and Elk Haven Retreat fit the bill perfectly. There was plenty of room for the 8 of us, but it felt cozy at the same time. We woke each morning with a beautiful mountain view. We were close to town and to the RMNP entrance. The hosts were quick to respond when we had a question about lighting the pilot on the fireplace. We found everything we needed in the kitchen. We had a great time and made great memories. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic!

The 3 of us stayed in this house and it was perfect for us! It had everything we needed to cook, relax and sleep! We had elk and mule deer in our backyard and enjoyed the hot tub every night! The air hockey table was fun but needs some TLC, and the pans tend to stick quite a bit after use, even after I let it season overnight lol! There is only 1 shower but 2 bathrooms. The gas fireplace made it feel very cozy and it kept us toasty! Overall though a very pleasant stay for us!

Wonderful Estes Getaway

We had a wonderful weekend at this rental. The house was well stocked and had beautiful decorations making it feel like home. The hot tub with its built-in lights made for relaxing evenings when the kids were asleep. The home is situated in an open valley and had wonderful views of the surrounding hills, but it did make it extremely windy throughout the day. The air hockey table was broken, but that wasn't important to us. Our one complaint was that the floors weren't vacuumed when we came in, but we contacted the owners and they resolved our concern. Would definitely happily stay here again.

Cozy and comfy cabin in a great location to Estes

The house was a great place to hang out with the family. The living room and was just right for 6 ppl. The location is only a short drive into town, but right next to an entrance to RMNP. The hot tub has been updated to include a wooden fence, which really helped with the insane wind we experienced on and off.

Short fall break getaway with our boys

The cabin and property was as advertised. It was a few minutes away from the heart of town but perfect for getting into RMNP gate bright and early as it is kind of a back way to get there. Julie accommodated us checking in a little earlier and everything was perfectly clean and ready for us. It was EXTREMELY windy our second day there so we used the hot tub but only for a short bit because it was almost too cold to stay outside! Plenty of room with 3 bedrooms and the kitchen had all the basics so we didn’t have to buy more than What we cooked. We would stay here again in the future.

Estes Park rental

The property was spacious and comfortable. We used the hot tub almost every night. The property wasn't quite as secluded as we thought it would be (more traffic noise than we expected) and we never saw any wildlife around the property. We would stay here again.

Perfect!

This place is the perfect location with an amazing view of the mountains. Literally 2 minutes from town (Estes Park) and 5-7 from the entrance to RMNP! The place is excellently stocked for cooking in or enjoy some of the great restaurants nearby. The hot tub and the air hockey table were extra blessings. Thanks to our hosts! Book it today! You will not be disappointed!
