Our family stayed a week at this wonderful home that’s close to the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. The home is spacious and features stunning views of Long’s Peak. The rooms are big, the kitchen is well-equipped for cooking family meals, the deck is great. Everything was clean and worked well. The home owners communicated clearly and were very nice to deal with. Our family would stay again in a heartbeat. We were comfortable and happy. The only sad part was having to leave!

The property is as described. However, if you are looking for something "fancy." Then keep scrolling. This place is for those who want to truly experience the RMNP. Its a quaint family cabin. PERFECT for my wife and I. Our party was only two, but the house will accommodate more. Very comfortable living room with large windows overlooking the park. When I say overlooking the park, I mean your view shed is bookended with The Twin Sisters peak on the left and Deer Mountain to the right. In the center, Longs Peak, in all its glory. You do see other houses but you are not right on top of each other as the lot is large. On the property you will see deer, elk, a billon chipmunks, maybe a bear, humming bird, birds that will land on your hand...and bobcats. My wife and I saw (on property) all but the bear.We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect location! Views were beautiful! House was plenty big. It is very dated, but everything works. Having to take out the garbage when we departed and having to clean AND put all the dishes away is frustrating. We paid for cleaning!! That’s all part of cleaning.

Beautiful views and convenient to RMNP

The house is very clean and well cared for. The location is perfect for entry into the park. There is a small grocery store just a few minutes away and a larger one about 10 minutes away so it is convenient to stock up on food. The neighborhood is very peaceful and quiet. The best part are the VIEWS! Stunning! We did our hikes in the morning and then spent the afternoons watching clouds/storms pass across the peaks. Highly recommend.

Wonderful stay AGAIN!

This was our second stay at the "On the Rocks" house in Estes Park. I am hoping for a third! Beautiful views of the mountains, snow and wildlife, cozy fireplace and a well appointed kitchen. On of my favorite places! We noticed a lot of upgrades to the house - new, comfy mattresses, kitchen and bath faucets and more cleaning (much appreciated!) had been done since our initial visit. We hosted family and friends, and all were extremely complimentary of the house and mattresses! Aaron and Ed are very accommodating! Easily reachable. The location of the house is very convenient to the lovely downtown area, fabulous restaurants and an easy drive to Denver international airport. We are always saddened to depart this bit of heaven on earth.

Amazing place to stay

My friends and I had an amazing time at Estes Park, and it is largely thanks to the hosts that were kind enough to let us stay at this property. The recommendations for food and hiking were the most useful to us throughout the week as visitors! The grill was used twice to make burgers, and the views were absolutely stunning. While hanging out on the deck, we were able to see mule deer and elk close to the house! We played chess and checkers almost every night since they have a little wall of games and puzzles. If I ever visit Estes Park again, I hope this property is available!

Good place to stay

Nice house on a hill with great view of mountains. Elk roam the area and we saw a large bull right off our porch. The house is older but is well maintained. The 6 of us had no issues with it and were pleased with it. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen adequately stocked with pots and plates etc.

A great spot in EP!

I look for a house with a Longs Peak view and this home was great with it’s fabulously big deck. Our host reminded us to lock the top on the trashcan because neighbors said there had been bears in the neighborhood. To our delight, 3 days later there were 2 juvenile bears wrestling in the yard and crossing the driveway. The first sighting ever in Estes Park, and although it was early in the season we saw and heard a bull elk bugling which we love. I haven’t mentioned that the home was perfect for our family. The 4 bedrooms gave us privacy but also large gathering spaces. A very clean and well kept home. We thoroughly enjoyed your home and our stay! Thank you for hosting us.

Amazing views, amazing property

I think the deck with a view of Long's Peak did it for me but the whole property and house are fantastic. About a mile from the park entrance and just a short drive to downtown Estes. House has neighbors but not close and you feel secluded. Lots of books, movies to watch (kids watched several movies), games. I can't begin to tell you how great it was. Any questions I had Aaron answered immediately. We would all (10 of us, me, my kids and 5 grandkids - almost 2, 8, 9 and 10 year olds) would all stay again and recommend it highly. The dishwasher, washer & dryer, comfy furniture, recommendations for food (mmm Poppy's pizza), hikes.... Thanks, Aaron & family!

Fantastic hub for our Colorado vacation

We reviewed many properties before choosing this one. Some of the features that stood out in the listing and came through in our actual stay...the views-SO nice, location-zip right over to the park, the rustic homey feel of the place, the comfy couches and living room area, enough bedrooms for the kids to spread out, laundry, deck, bonus was the sunroom (we had a puzzle going while we were there), all the rooms had what you would expect (towels, dishes, etc). The owners were fantastic to communicate with and helped remind us about those important details like trash day! We had a mixup with silly Amazon being way late with our order and they went above and beyond to help connect the item with us! We saw wildlife on the property, we enjoyed the proximity to the park and town. We took a day trip to Loveland and basically had the Loveland Lazer Tag place to ourselves. Most of the group hiked everyday with the favorites being Alberta Falls, Skypond, and Flattop Mountain. Overall everything was great and we'd stay there again if we have the chance to return in the future!
