Cabin at Christmas time
We were blessed with light snow at this beautiful and comfortable cabin during the Christmas holiday! We had everything we needed to enjoy our time at the cabin and even a little Christmas tree to make it feel like home for the holidays. It was very close to downtown Estes Park which is a charming town with lots of shops and restaurants. It was also very close to Rocky Mountain National Park which we so enjoyed seeing the wildlife and snowy scenery. Go to Bear Lake! Also don’t miss out on the hot tub with the flurries, such a cool experience!

About the host

Hosted by Laura & Mark Richins

Host profile image
Hi! We are Mark and Laura and love an adventure. As a family with four grown children, we love the outdoors and hiking, kayaking, backpacking and camping. We find joy in spending time with our growing family. We also like to get away and spend time together exploring our amazing world and the beauty that surrounds us. Our love for adventure is what brought us to the mountains to find a home that we could enjoy and share with others.

Why they chose this property

As a family who loves the outdoors and Colorado we wanted to find a place where not only we could make memories but also share with others who wanted to spend time in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. We came across this home that was unique and had personality. With Marks skill and knack for woodworking and remodeling, he went to work making our Rocky Retreat just how we want it and to make it ours. We love how it turned out and how close it is to town but still in the mountains and around wildlife. It is close enough to our hometown of Loveland so we can come up when we just need to get away. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

Close to town, activities and attractions but secluded on the mountain with a hot tub and comfortable living area. The boulders that roll off the front porch are a fun and unique feature and a great place to sit and watch the elk, deer, rabbits, chipmunks and other wildlife that might happen to wander through the yard.
