Great views from 2 decks, block from town, across from nature preserve, Hot Tub!

Relax, rejuvenate and recharge in this 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath mountain cabin that has everything you could hope for in an Estes Park vacation home. It’s within easy walking distance to downtown restaurants and shopping, and a close drive to the main attraction – Rocky Mountain National Park!
This house is perfect for making memories with friends and family. Enjoy your morning coffee on our beautiful outdoor deck, which overlooks parkland and has an amazing view of the Stanley Hotel. Have fun making meals in the fully-stocked kitchen, and eating together as a family around the large dining table. Two living areas (on separate floors) allow you to play games and relax as a family, or split up into your own areas.
After a day of exploring Rocky Mountain National Park (or shopping in Estes Park), a fun evening and a good night’s sleep awaits you. Walk into town for dinner and drinks, or grill out on the outdoor deck. Each bedroom is beautifully decorated with a mountain theme, and is equipped with a flat screen TV if you just want some quiet time. The downstairs game room has a sectional/sleeper sofa and offers a great place to play games and watch movies. Before bed, enjoy a soothing soak in the outdoor hot tub and take in the night sky.

We have highspeed gigabit internet connection (940mbps) for those who need to telework! Great connectivity for video zoom calls, streaming movies, and more! Cable Tv in every room, board games, dominoes, cards and more. Hiking trails directly across the street and large 6 person private hot-tub. Loads of fun for the family at your fingertips.

This property in 100% self-managed. We take pride in our home and offer guest personal experience with suggestions from "locals" on what to do around town, best RMNP hikes, and of course our favorite places to eat and drink.

The host requires you to complete the following before checking out:
Load and start the dishwasher
Gather used towels
Remove personal items, remove leftover food and drinks and take out the rubbish
Lock the doors
Dishwasher Note: With our housekeeper juggling same-day turnovers during the busy season, starting the 2-hour dishwasher cycle before you leave would be a huge help—thank you!
Laundry Note: To help our very busy housekeeper, please gather used towels and start a load—towels take a long time to wash and dry. No need to worry about sheets; they’re cleaned off-site.
Trash note: If you’re able, taking the trash to the designated dumpster would be a big help. Our housekeeper is recovering from shoulder surgery and truly appreciates the extra kindness.
Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host.

We had a great visit to Elk Cabin with our family of 4 (mom, dad, 2 teenagers). Everyone had plenty of space to relax, and the kitchen was well-stocked. The location was great, we were able to walk into town for dinner and shopping. RMNP was a short, easy drive. We would definitely stay again.

My wife and I absolutely loved this cabin! We were in town to go to Rocky Mountain National Park which was barely 10 minutes to Beaver Meadows entrance. The cabin was tastefully decorated. So many small details great open floor plan and gorgeous kitchen. If you are looking for a space perfectly located in Estes Park minutes walking to downtown but it feels like its still private and minutes from RMNP and come back to soak in a awesome hot tub like we did than this is the place for you. Thanks Brent for making sure our stay was amazing! Great host!
