Beautiful in its own exclusiveness, this four-bedroom, three-bathroom, 2850 square-foot mountain haven in Estes Park, Colorado, is not only a place to stay, but also a destination. The combination between the rough charm and modern luxury offered by the lodge is excellent in achieving a great base camp for families, friends, or anyone willing to get lost in the spectacularness of the Rockies.
A Majestic Mountain Welcome
When you first arrive the feeling is of the warmth of the cabin’s authentic log structure and the grandness of its design. The interior spaces which are also heated and have high windows become your attraction, not only in the distant view of the land but in the breath taking scenery all around. The center of the house is the great room which is a perfect place to relax with family members after a day of hiking. The Western theme, which was meticulously selected, enriches the cabin’s fantastic mountain look making you feel as if you are in this nice home away from a home. Indeed, as the guest, Kevin said, “If you desire a unique stay in the lovely Estes Park then I’m sure you won’t be disappointed by Carole’s place. From the moment you enter you will be amazed by the Western style of this extravagantly decorated luxury log home.”
Accommodations Fit for a King (and a Queen, and the Whole Family!)
The cabin can comfortably accommodate up to eight people, with different sleeping arrangements available to match the variety of groups. On the main floor, there is a bedroom with a bunk bed (one single and one full) that opens out to the large deck and a king bedroom with a smart TV. Upstairs, one queen bedroom and a master bedroom with a giant king bed and an en-suite bathroom comprising of a jetted tub are available. Furthermore, a pullout sofa in the upstairs sleeping area is there so that no one is left without a place to sleep comfortably.
Amenities That Exceed Expectations
The luxury cabin is not just for resting; it is all about the recreation of the customer. The kitchen of a chef is the fully equipped one with a large fridge, pantry, and a spate of appliances, plates, and dishes, thus making the cooking of holiday meals an easy and enjoyable process. Besides the two dining rooms, you can also eat at the huge covered deck next to the relaxing hot tub if you want to enjoy your culinary creations or even better have the meal outdoors.
Indeed, enjoying the hot tub is nothing but heaven, as you relax in its warm, bubbly waters and listen to the calm and soothing sound of the Big Thompson River flowing by. It is a perfect way to relax after a day of hiking or you can just do it for unwinding and taking in the spectacular view. Also, there is a BBQ on the deck which is perfect for grilling your favorite foods while enjoying the nice mountain air. For fun, the cabin has books, games, and puzzles. The TV/living room with a massive flat-screen smart TV and a Roku box, and also the televisions in both king bedrooms and the upstairs sleep enable the watching of something all the time.
Your Doorstep to Adventure
I have to say that the cabin’s site is the cabin’s most fundamental asset. From there, it is just a 5-minute drive to the Beaver Meadows entry gate of Rocky Mountain National Park thus allowing you to be ahead of the crowd and have an early start on your ventures. The park can give you an inexhaustible variety of hikes, watch the animals, and have a nice drive enjoying the spectacular views. Also the fact of being on the west side of town means that you can stay away from the traffic and have a run of the more calm and relaxing type of stay. In less than ten minutes by car, we find the heart of the town of Estes Park, with its lovely shops, art galleries, and restaurants. Golf lovers the Estes Park Golf Course is only 8 minutes away by car. And for those coming in winter, the Eldora Ski Resort is a 50-minute drive.
A Sanctuary for All Seasons
Whether you are here to enjoy the long days and the green in summer, the golden aspens and the elk rut in the fall, the snow-covered wonderland in the winter, or to witness the rebirth of nature in the spring, this cabin is the perfect retreat for the whole year. The frequent wildlife sightings on the property, such as elk, deer, and an occasional bear, significantly contribute to the magic of the experience.
As another guest, Todd, also acknowledged, “This cabin is undoubtedly the best mountain cabin and the most peaceful retreat I have ever experienced in the Rocky Mountains. And I have been in a lot of cabins. Book it. You will love it.”
