Peaceful weekend away

I had everything I needed to make my stay comfortable and fun. Kitchen has plenty to cook with, the fireplace kept the apartment cozy. There are lots of little details that made my stay special. There were even scissors and tape. Owners definitely pay attention to the details. Would recommend!

Classic Colorado

Charming, Swiss-looking chalet condo in a GREAT location very close to the Fall River entrance of RMNPark. This place is on the end of the building, on river level, with a nice little covered porch. You are about 10' from the river and there's an enticing little trail all along the river. An enormous bull elk was slowly grazing right across the river from us for about a half an hour in the early morning. Wow.

Soothing streamside location

We really enjoyed our stay- very comfortable and the kitchen is well-appointed. The highlight for us however was the streamside location with such a lovely soundtrack of flowing water!

Peaceful Stay

My husband, 6 year old son and myself had a wonderful stay. The property was very nice and clean and the patio sat right on a gorgeous river. My son had the time of his life throwing sticks in the river and watching them float downstream. Would highly recommend!

Great Mountain Escape!

This was our first time in Colorado, and we wanted to stay near RMNP. This was 3 minutes from the National Park entrance and 10 minutes from Downtown Estes Park. The balcony on the edges of the river was everything we imagined it would be. Place was clean and had all you need to enjoy your stay! We will keep this place in mind for the future!

Perfect RMNP stay

If you’re looking for a place to stay as close to RMNP as you can get, look no further! My wife and I had an excellent stay here, and found all of the amenities we needed included. Everything was very well detailed and described making for an easy arrival and departure. The location doesn’t get much better, providing easy access to the park for early morning hikes or sunrise drives. Having elk and Fall River right off your back deck are just a bonus!

We enjoyed being snowed in and watching the snow fall on the creek behind the unit. One of the most well stocked kitchens I've seen in a VRBO.

Great stay for wedding at Della Terra

We were looking for a good property close to Della Terra for our friends’ wedding. This cozy place fit the bill. Just 3 min by car from the venue, it was easy to get ready and head over to the ceremony. It’s also really close to the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. Fun for everyone! Our only sadness was that we didn’t have more time to sit creek side on the back deck. Gorgeous!

Great location to RMNP and downtown area. Loved the site on the river.

The place was very clean and had extensive kitchen appliances/dinnerware/cookware/glassware. Great river view from deck and quite a bit of privacy for a multi unit building/property. Owner was very responsive to questions. Highly recommend.

Lovely stay in Estes Park

I loved staying here! This was a well-appointed, cozy, and comfortable place to stay on my recent visit to Estes Park. It’s super close to the RMNP entrance, and sits right on the river - all you have to do is open the patio door to hear the river rushing by. Check-in & check-out were super easy and the hosts were very responsive to any communications. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

We absolutely loved the location near the Falls River Entrance and right outside Estes! We saw 7 moose as their were so many right up the street near Sheep Lake! The house was on the creek and we listened to the water all evening. So relaxing!! Would stay again!

Just what we needed

Rarely will my husband and I find ourselves with just our youngest son. We have 5 children and the others were visiting relatives. Our 14-year-old son was recently diagnosed with Schizophrenia and he has been struggling to cope. He has always told us he wants to see/be in the mountains and hike, see nature, etc. He's talked about it a lot. We booked this trip for him. We adored our apartment/cabin! Everything we needed, was well stocked, and we cooked every day. The balcony and view of the river, are amazing. We spent lots of time out there. Cozy, quaint, great books, and the hottest fireplace in all of Colorado. :) We can't wait to come back. It was so very cozy and wonderful.
