Rivers Edge "CATCH WILD TROUT" Discount 7 nights or more July and August 2025

Estes Park License # 6116. Welcome to a very private updated mountain cabin on the rivers edge (located on private .8 acre). Hear the roar of the river and watch water splash on the boulders. Enjoy fishing for wild trout on 182 feet of private Big Thompson River running through the property. This is an older cabin with a lot of character with a portion built in the 1930's. We are continually upgrading the cabin. Every one who has stayed at the cabin loves its charm.

Relax under large shaded Pine Trees on a manicured lawn while viewing the stream and tree covered mountains. Elk and other wildlife will frequently be roaming in the yard in the evening or early morning. Bring the camera and camcorder to take pictures of the Elk.

Easy access to Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park.

Shopping and restaurants are available as downtown Estes Park is less than 1/2 mile. Several shops and restaurants are within walking distance. The South entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park is within one mile.

We have updated the bathrooms like you see on "Home Makeover". The old cabin has some of its charm left when constructed in about 1940 plus the upgrades we have made over the years. We have owned the cabin since 2004

Please feel free to contact the Owner if you have any issue with your reservation.

My friends and I stayed here to be close to Rocky Mountain nation park. We didn’t expect to spend too much time at the vrbo, but hanging out next to the river after a long day was the best part of the trip! Our host was great as well!

Great location. Enjoyed the river and sound of water; very relaxing. Elk, turkeys, deer, stellar jays, bunnies, all were present everyday. It was a lot of fun for us all, especially my 4 year old granddaughter. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you!

Great River View

The river behind the cabin was the main reason we stayed here. My kids loved playing in the water! Within 30 minutes of getting there a herd of elk crossed the river to come into the yard! A memory we’ll never forget! Also the morning we left, a bull elk was laying in the yard 20 yards from the garage! So neat! We loved this place!!

Very nice property in a great location.

This property has all the comforts of home plus a river in the backyard, easy access to Rocky Mountain National Park in one direction on US 36 and easy access to downtown Estes Park in the other. This quiet property is more than a block off of US 36. We found good eating, a grocery store and some shopping nearby.

The Perfect Getaway!

My family and I enjoyed a long weekend in Estes Park & RMNP, and this cabin was perfect for us! It is surprisingly spacious, clean, and the setting is wonderful. We witnessed a bull elk right across the river our first night, which was very neat! We had an amazing time, and we'll definitely be back!

Nice Cabin on The Big Thompson

We had a very nice relaxing stay. The home was clean and had all the necessities for a comfortable stay. We were greeted by the owner who was extremely nice and let us know he was just a call away for any needs. We would definitely return again. The close proximity to town and both entrances to RMNP were great. We did have one day where there were about 25 mama elks with their babes in the yard. It was so neat watching them lay under the trees for a short while before moving on.

Stayed Monday through Friday and had an amazing time. Elk in the yard most mornings, beautiful riverfront, and close to everything (grocery, restaurants, park, etc.) but still private. Very clean, plenty of space, and check in and out were easy with no issues. Would definitely stay again!

Nice cabin/house in a good location

Comfortable home with all necessary amenities. Peaceful setting along the river with plenty of yard space to give a feel of seclusion. Little piece of heaven in town. IF I had to provide something to improve upon, it would be an upgrade to at least one King bed. We did experience mule deer visits on multiple days and one bull elk walked thru the yard bugling. Overall it was a great stay and I'd consider renting again on our next visit.

Amazing views of elk!

This is our 3rd year to stay here at Wendell's property on the Thompson River. We keep coming back because it's AMAZING. He has everything one could possibly need in a place and has even made upgrades to both bathrooms to make them both perfect. And even if you're missing some items that you forgot to bring, the home is located only about a quarter of a mile from a small grocery store that has all the essentials to restock what you need without having to go into town to the Safeway which by the way is only about 5 miles from the property. The location on the river and all the chairs and picnic tables make it peaceful to sit outside and listen to the rushing water. The cable and internet are perfect and provide all the conveniences of home as well. And the 2 electric recliners are perfect too. Our 3 year old loved them!! We've come around Labor Day every year now for 3 years and have not been disappointed by the elk. They are almost always in the yard to see for hours at a time. Some suggestions for smaller children are the Copeland Falls Trail up Mary's Lake Road in the RMNP. It's a short hike - 0.3 miles up and 0.3 miles back down and you can drive into the Wild Basin trail head and park right next to the trail head. Great hike for small children. And right next to the home is the Trout Haven Fishing Pond that is stocked with Rainbow trout and your small ones will love catching the fish! All in all, Wendell has been a great host!
