It’s 10 minutes to downtown Estes Park, to the National Park, and to the Forest Service trail network off USFS 119—one of the locals' favorite hidden gems. From the deck, you’ll likely spot elk, deer, or wild turkeys wandering through, and if you’re lucky, you might even hear bugling at dusk. This isn’t just a place to crash—it’s a place to connect. Sip your morning coffee as the sun lights up the peaks. Soak under a starry sky in the private hot tub. Put a record on, kick back by the fire, and let the outside world fade away. Here are just a few of our favorite guest moments: “... Woke up to elk bugling and fighting on the mountain behind the house. That’s a memory we’ll never forget.” – Whitney “... This is now my all-time favorite homes. I’ll be back with more of my family.” – Katarina “... Tons of magical deer and elk. My only regret is we couldn’t stay longer.” – Ellen “... Our mini family stay was beyond expectations. One of the best by far in Estes Park!” – Valerie Fully remodeled in 2022, the home features large windows, clean modern design, and every detail dialed: a huge deck with a fire pit, hot tub, and dining area; a gas fireplace and 75" TV upstairs; a 50" TV and retro Atari + Nintendo setup downstairs.

Other things to note NEIGHBORS & NOISE We do have neighbors and it is super super important to respect their quiet and solitude. Parties and loud music that can disturb them is not allowed. We have decibel meters that alert us to gathering parties and disturbances (read up on Minut Noise Monitors -- they don't record anything but just track sound levels) SMOKING AND FIRES Smoking is not allowed on the property due to high fire danger. Sorry! AIR CONDITIONER Like nearly every other home in town, there’s no A/C. Thankfully mountain air blows down from the high peaks and will cool down the place quickly in the evenings if you open the windows. BEARS Do NOT leave food in your car! Bears frequent this area and can break in! MINUT We use a Minut noise meter. It doesn't record audio, but instead monitors decibel levels, temperature and humidity. This is for the safety of guests & to protect the home. It also serves to warn us about parties & prevent noise complaints from neighbors. It's located on the cieling in the kitchen.
