Beautiful Mountain Location

This property was so cozy and lovely, perfect for our stay! The furniture and beds were very comfortable and the decor was beautiful! The cutest coffee shop is a 4 minute walk, a quick drive into RMNP or to the heart of Estes.

Great home and location.

This is a great home, furnished beautifully, and a great location. Our family really enjoyed our trip. There are a few things that need to be addressed specifically with the home, but even though those became an issue for us, they were resolved to our satisfaction at the time. You cannot grill with a propane grill. We have requested that all references to that be removed from the listing, welcome email, and documents left in the home. The oven needs to be repaired, the door won’t stay shut so you can’t plan on cooking in the oven until that’s repaired. Lastly, the washer has a hard time coming out of the rinse and spin cycle without external help, and I’ve also requested that that be repaired. If those issues are addressed, then it would definitely be 5+ stars.

Getaway

We had a great time. We saw many many elk and mule tail deer. Had some light snow. Enjoyed several drives into Rocky Mountain national park. Did a short loop to Drake and Glen Haven. Had birthday lunch at Embers- very good. We hung out at the house in the evenings playing card games along with dominoes. Would return in the future.

Spacious home in a great location

This home is in a great location and was very spacious and we enjoyed our visit to Rocky Mtn National Park and the town of Estes. However, there were some details in the home that need repair and/or replacement that would make future guests stay more enjoyable. The dresser in the downstairs bedroom replaced, the sheets in the king loft bedroom replaced, the blinds on the slider on the main floor replaced and the oven door repaired so it closes tightly.

A fabulous getaway at the foothills of the Rockies

I cannot recommend this place enough. The house is very well located, designed, decorated, equipped and connected. We were in awe with the fantastic mountain views from the balcony and huge elk grazing in the community. Thank you for opening the retreat to us.

Our golf get away

This property is well maintained and altho the homes are tightly nestled in this subdivision is has been nicely done. The elk had no problem making themselves very comfortable and enjoy this subdivision as well. The deck has a beautiful view with a comfortable table and chairs for 6. The kitchen is nice to work in with a large island and 2 bar/breakfast stools so guests can visit while food is being prepared. The dishes are nice but the cookware isn't! The grill was unfortunately not available but when it is, it is said to be located on the deck which would be nice to have on the same level as the kitchen. This home has several stairs from the main entry, so keep your coolers and suitcases light. The beds are not the best but you can't beat the mountain air for sleeping. It was nice to be able to use the garage as we had lots of golf clubs and it enters the lower 2 bedrooms at ground level. We've come up for this annual golf tournament for almost 50 years and this is in the top 10 places/ VRBO's we've stayed.

A Mixed Experience with Some Significant Drawbacks

We recently stayed at this Vacasa property with a group of five, including our infant, and while the location and spaciousness of the rental were definite highlights, there were some major issues that affected our overall experience. The Positives: The property's proximity to Estes Park downtown and the entrances to Rocky Mountain National Park was a huge plus for us. It made our trips to town and the park incredibly convenient, which is a big deal when traveling with an infant. The rental itself was spacious, and the view from the balcony is something we really enjoyed—definitely a peaceful spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The Negatives: However, there were several significant drawbacks that future guests should be aware of. First and foremost, if you're planning to work remotely, this might not be the place for you. The WiFi was painfully slow, averaging around 3-5mbps, which made even basic tasks a struggle. The cleanliness of the property was another major issue. It was clear that the cleaning job was very superficial—there was dust everywhere, and we found wrappers, leftover socks, and food particles scattered around. We actually had to vacuum and mop the common areas ourselves, which is not something you want to do on vacation. The kitchen utensils provided were also a disappointment. They were cheap and worn out, to the point where we didn't feel comfortable using them for cooking. If you plan on preparing meals during your stay, I'd recommend looking for another rental or bringing your own cookware. Lastly, the lack of air conditioning meant we had to keep the windows open at night, which we didn't mind at first. However, the main road is very close to the bedroom, and the road noise was quite disruptive, especially with an infant who needs a quieter environment to sleep. Overall: While the location and spaciousness of this rental are strong selling points, the issues with cleanliness, WiFi, and noise made our stay less enjoyable than we had hoped. I would recommend this property only to those who prioritize location and views and are less concerned with working remotely or cooking. For others, especially families with young children or those planning to work during their stay, you might want to explore other options.

Fabulous Home

We loved everything about this beautiful home and would definitely stay here again! The amount of space, bedrooms, bathrooms all of the amenities including a deck with a grill and beautiful views, washer & dryer & full garage were utilized by us! Kitchen, dining & living room also were very comfortable, we felt very much at home! It was also very well stocked! This is an amazing quiet neighborhood and we loved that! Also loved the location, I was able to easily walk to downtown Estes and back! I highly recommend this property!

Great Location

This condo was nice and clean. It is in a great location between Rocky Mtn Natl Park and downtown Estes Park. A couple of things was that the stove door didn't close tight and one of the coffee makers did not work. It would be nice to have some blinds on the upper windows of the loft. It was a great place and would stay again.

Nice Stay

The House is Great and Spacious. We were comfortable and had everything that we needed. There is no air conditioning, per the listing, and even in May we opened the windows but know that the unit is off of a busy road and there is a lot of car and truck traffic. The WiFi is also extremely slow if that is important to you. We had two laptops accessing email and internet for restaurant searching so we were not trying to watch movies or do any computer gaming. It was a struggle to get sites to load. Also, bring an eye mask if you are sleeping in the loft because the sun is bright quite early. :-) The kitchen is well stocked with plates, glasses, pots, and pans and the house itself if clean and lovely.

The description of this home was spot on. The only improvement I can see would be to put a new mattress on the king bed in the loft.

Great place!

This property was lovely. It was very clean and had all the kitchen amenities you could ask for. Location was convenient to Rocky Mountain National Park and downtown Estes. Very quiet neighborhood. We even had deer and elk visitors in the yard! Loved having the two bedrooms and bathroom in the basement. The loft bedroom and bathroom area is very nice. My only feedback there would be blinds in the upper living room windows because you had to be very careful about having the lights on up in the bedroom at night. Great place; would definitely stay again!

A great place to stay

We wanted a nice Christmas family get-away and this was perfect. The grown up kids could stay in their own rooms downstairs with their own bathroom while we enjoyed the upstairs room (very comfortable king sized bed). The living room was perfect for card games or watching tv. We loved the fireplace! We cooked meals and had everything we needed (though a knife sharpener would have been nice). One of the most appreciated things was the use of the garage since we had a solid 7 inches of snow one night! The location is great - close to both town and RMNP and an easy walk to a great coffee shop. The place was very clean and the host was very communicative. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
