We are so happy to provide our lovely sanctuary as a base camp for enjoying Rocky Mountain National Park. Our luxury log home, built in 1995, is a gorgeous 2850 square-foot mountain paradise, sitting on the banks of the Big Thompson River with a hot tub and massive covered deck.

Our past guests have raved:

`... If you want a one-of-a-kind stay in beautiful Estes Park you cannot go wrong with Carole`s place. From the moment you step in the door you will be blown away by the Western decor of this lavishly appointed, luxury log home.` - Kevin

`... I have found when reading these reviews, sometimes `less is more.` So all I need to say is this: this cabin is by far the best mountain cabin and peaceful retreat I’ve ever stayed at in the Rocky Mountains. And I’ve stayed in a lot of cabins. Book it. You will love it.` - Todd

`... This beautiful log cabin is a MUST! Heated floors, big huge windows and super clean. I will definitely stay here again. BOOK NOW!` - Jackie

`... She has a big hot tub outside which was so relaxing even when it was snowing outside. We were able to cook every meal so her kitchen is set up with enough tools to cook for many people. We had the best time and walked away with amazing memories and laughter! Thank you for having us again!` - Boglarka

The ten-acre lot backs up to the National Park, so you`re almost guaranteed to see elk, bear or deer. Several picnic and seating areas in the yard allow you to relax to the sounds of the river, which you can also fish.

The home is just minutes from the Beaver Meadows entry gate to the National Park, and just a few more minutes to downtown Estes Park. Being on the west side of town is a wonderful bonus, allowing you to avoid traffic and just relax.

BEDROOMS

The main floor offers a bedroom with a bunk bed (single and full) that opens onto the deck, plus a large king bedroom with a large smart TV. The second floor offers a bedroom with a queen, plus a master suite with a huge king bed, and an en-suite bathroom (jetted tub but currently no shower, though we are working to install that). There`s also an upstairs sleeping area with a pullout sofa.

BATHROOM

The home features a bathroom with a shower/tub on the first floor, a bathroom with just a shower on the second floor, and an en suite bathroom with tub (no shower) in the second floor master.

KITCHEN/DINING

The home has a gorgeous, fully equipped kitchen with tons of appliances for all your cooking and vacation meal prep. There`s a giant fridge, pantry, and lots of plates and dishes for entertaining. There are two dining areas, one for informal meals right off the kitchen, and a dining room near the great room for special family gatherings. Additionally you can eat outside next to the hot tub or on the deck.

ENTERTAINMENT

We have books, games and puzzles throughout for entertainment, plus a TV/living room with a huge flat screen smart TV and a Roku box. We also have televisions in both king bedrooms, plus a television in the upstairs sleeping loft.

LAUNDRY

We have full size washer and dryer that you are free to use.

Guest have access to our entire property, minus our garage. That includes 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, our huge shaded wraparound deck, our riverfront yard, hot tub, and the land backing up onto Giant Track Mountain.

My husband and I visit occasionally but have turned over management to Nathan our co-hosts. They are long time Estes Park locals with a wealth of information.

Our home is in a gorgeous little neighborhood on the Big Thompson River, and our property is riverfront and also backs up to Giant Track Mountain. Giant Track is a huge open space that eventually backs up to parts of Rocky Mountain National Park so there`s a lot of wildlife to spot. The Big Thompson is easily fished from our house provided you have a permit.

It`s pretty easy to get around here, but if you want to take public transport, you can walk exactly 1 mile to the Elk Meadow Lodge and hop aboard the free summer shuttle that goes all over town and into the National Park.

WIFI SPEED

This unit is in a neighborhood that has yet to get fiber. We have a DSL connection. It is fast enough to stream high def video to 3 simultaneous televisions, but may cause problems for heavy downloaders or families with multiple children home schooling.

NOISE

This unit is in a quiet neighborhood and we really, really want to maintain great relationships with our neighbors. Please be respectful of your noise level! If you`re on the deck at night, please keep the conversation levels low. Note that we use a NoiseAware, which measures sound levels and alerts our team if things are too loud. It does not record content so your privacy is 100% guaranteed. Guests are not to unplug it (and our managers will also be alerted if that happens). You can read more about this device by searching for NoiseAware on the Internet.

NONPAYING GUESTS

Insurance forbids nonpaying and non-registered guests on property. There are motion sensitive security cameras on the outside of the building which will pick up nonpaying guests.

AIR CONDITIONER

Estes has a mild mountain climate in the summers but from time to time it can get hot. Like nearly every other home in town, there’s no A/C. The cool mountain breeze cools the home off quickly in the evenings.
