We had a wonderful time at the cottage! It was an easy check-in & check-out, there were beautiful views, and downtown was just a short walk away. We plan on visiting again and recommending the cottage to any of our family and friends that wish to visit Estes Park.

We had a wonderful stay at the Owl’s Nest in Estes Park.The house was immaculate. Linens were plentiful and of excellent quality. The kitchen was very well equipped. We cooked all our meals. Location was exactly what we wanted…a short walk to Main Street, although a little harder on the return uphill! Our hosts were easyto get in touch with and very accommodating. We would definitely stay again.

This was probably our favorite place we’ve stayed at in Estes Park over the years. The location was within easy walking distance of downtown. The house was stocked well enough that we had everything needed to cook our Thanksgiving dinner. Plus, it had more than enough space and beds to accommodate my family of five. Absolutely amazing!

Awesome stay, felt like home. House was walking distance to shops (just be ready for a little hike up hill) Also, was SO well stocked with everything you could need. Rented other places before that had nothing, so this was wonderful! Great spot for us and our 3 kids (12,12 &10) Kids LOVED having tv's in their rooms and lots of streaming tv options to relax with after long day of hiking in RMNP! Awesome stay
