******************************

Just a few minutes north of downtown you’ll find The Homestead, an authentic and charming 1950s vintage log cabin. It underwent a floor to ceiling remodel in October of 2024, complete with a modern eco-friendly mini-split HVAC system with air conditioning. It’s ready for you, your family and friends.

Enjoy mornings and evenings on the back deck watching wild turkeys, deer and elk meander along the bank of Fall River, just across the parking lot. The National Park boundary is only a few miles away -- animals are everywhere.

The location can`t be beat! You can walk to the nearby Wapiti Pub, or take a quick drive to downtown for dinner. Or, just head up Highway 34 to the National Park entrance; you’ll be there in a few minutes.

If you just want to relax, you’ve picked the right place! There’s a grill and picnic table on the front porch, as well as a spacious back deck. Inside you’ll find lots of chairs and sofas to sink into — either in front of a fireplace or one of two smart TVs.

We’ve entrusted the management of our property to the team at The Wolf Rentals. They are highly responsive and have an excellent knowledge of the area!

We are in a quiet neighborhood of vacation homes on the banks Fall River. Our location is perfect -- minutes to downtown Estes Park but also minutes to Rocky Mountain National Park.

Highly recommend a car, though there is a free summer transit service called `The Peak` that runs from late May to late October. This bus service has a stop right in front of the house on the Gold Route. You can ride the busses around Estes Park and to the entrance to the National Park.

NO SMOKING, NO FIRES

Our property is located just a few miles from where two of Colorado’s largest wildfires occurred in recent years, so we have a strict no-smoking policy. Smoking is not permitted inside or outside, and outdoor fire pits are now prohibited in all vacation homes in Estes Park. Charcoal BBQs are also banned, but our gas grill and indoor wood fireplace allowed.

ROAD CONDITIONS

Estes Park has a fantastic snowplow crew, and our driveway will be cleared during snowstorms. However, in the event of a major blizzard, the roads and driveway may not be plowed exactly when you need them. We’re unable to offer assistance if you get stuck, so we always recommend guests rent an AWD or 4WD vehicle when visiting from October to May. Our home sits at 8,000 feet in a region known for heavy snowfall!

GUEST LIMIT

Our permit allows a maximum of 10 guests incl infants and children.

BEARS

Never leave food in your car! Bears are common in the area and can break into vehicles.

SECURITY

We have a Minut smart home monitor that alerts us to any potential parties. It tracks noise levels and temperature to help protect our home and neighborhood.
