You have a very good chance of some wildlife sightings from our place too. See what our guests say: "...everything we were looking for! Minutes from the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park and minutes to downtown Estes Park. We would love to visit again!" "We almost didn't want to review this place out of fear of others discovering how INCREDIBLE it is! Truthfully, this may be one of the best places we have ever rented (certainly in Estes anyway). The hosts have not only created a beautifully decorated place, but also managed to keep the feel/asthetic/theme of RMNP modern, clean and updated. It is also clear that the owners thought of what travelers may need during their stay and managed to provide a very well stocked place that never feels cluttered. The neighborhood is quiet, the place is spacious and very well suited for families. Distance to RMNP and the "downtown" area couldn't be better! An absolute gem of a property." Our 1950-square-foot home offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. You'll find a well-stocked gourmet kitchen, an open dining/living room, and a master suite on the main floor. On the lower floor are 2 more bedrooms, more living space, another bathroom, a laundry room for you to use, a small playroom for the kids, plus a piano and TV area. Our home's location is AWESOME -- it's on the west side of town, so you don't need to deal with National Park traffic through the city center each morning as you head out for your adventures. The Beaver Meadows entry gate (the main gate to the Park) is 3 miles away. My favorite restaurant, Bird and Jim, is less than a mile away, as is our great local grocer, Country Supermarket. The heart of downtown is exactly 1 mile. If you want to walk to breakfast, you'll enjoy strolling along the bank of the Big Thompson to Coffee on the Rocks, where you can hang out by a duck pond with your morning brew and a breakfast sandwich. Property access is relatively flat and our HOA plows our neighborhood, though we still recommend 4wd or AWD in the winters. Estes sits at 7,500' and winter storms can at times be intense. BEDROOMS Our home offers 3 bedrooms. A master suite just off the main floor living area features a king bed and an en suite bathroom. Head downstairs to a carpeted lower floor, featuring two more bedrooms, both with Queen beds and another bathroom. A downstairs common area has a pullout sofa bed. LIVING & ENTERTAINMENT With two living areas (upstairs & downstairs) and a small playroom downstairs there is plenty of seating and space for your crew to spread out or stick together.

Great place to nap, read, take a break, or play games! COOKING & LAUNDRY KITCHEN - Our kitchen is fully stocked, with a full size oven, stove, fridge/freezer and all the cooking amenities you may need: sharp new knives, cookie sheets, baking supplies, pots, pans, etc. That being said, there are a ton of awesome restaurants super close by: Bird and Jim, Scratch Deli, Smokin' Dave's BBQ, and the Rock Inn. One of our best breweries, Rock Cut, is about a 5-10 minute walk. LAUNDRY - Feel free to use the free laundry facilities in our laundry room!

Each bedroom also has both blinds and blackout curtains for improved sleep. Guests enjoy unfettered access to our entire home, including: 3 bedrooms (King, queen, queen) 2.5 bathroom 1 kitchen/dining/living area upstairs Downstairs living space Small kids playroom Gas fireplace Small private deck Garage Hot tub on downstairs patio I have turned over management to The Wolf Rentals. Their team will be your primary points of contact. They're great! This home is in a quiet neighborhood 2 miles to the closest RMNP visitor's center and 3 miles from the National Park entrance. Our neighborhood is a grouping of townhomes situated along the Big Thompson River, which is a 30 second walk from our front door. Our main floor deck has views over the neighborhood and up toward Prospect Mountain. While we are in a neighborhood, it's popular among the local wildlife -- you'll likely see elk and deer. Bears do frequent the area, so lock your car doors at night, and do not leave anything smelly in your car. There are neighbors, like most homes in Estes Park. Those looking for total seclusion need to be searching 20 minutes or more outside of Estes. Estes Park downtown is 1 mile away. A free shuttle bus stops all over Estes Park and ventures the National Park during the summer months. Stop 4 (National Park Village, where the nearby Country Supermarket is) is about a mile away. Stop 3 is about a half mile away at Fun City. 4WD, AWD, or a 2wd car with snow tires are highly, highly recommended from October to May. We are in a high mountain environment with very unpredictable winter weather! NOISE Events, loud music and noises, and parties are strictly prohibited. Please be respectful of your noise levels. FIRES Estes Park nearly burned to the ground in 2020 after the two largest fires in Colorado history burned simultaneously just miles from our house. As a result, outdoor fire pits are now illegal at short term rentals. Also, no smoking inside or out due to the location on a windy hillside. BEARS Do NOT leave food in your car! Bears frequent this area and can break in!
