We have been to Estes at least once a year for the last 15 years. This was one of the best places we have stayed. Beautiful cabin with wonderful views, close to downtown and Safeway. Direct route to RMNP. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

10/2025: Was super impressed with this property. I've never seen a cleaner place! Beds were very comfy. The 2 bedrooms on the main floor had blackout blinds, so was perfectly dark in the mornings, which I so appreciate. Three times we saw a flock of turkeys go along the road, up to 22 of them at one time. So cool! Great water pressure, lots of hot water, deep (and SUPER CLEAN) bathtub, a fire was laid in for us, such a gorgeously restored house!! Tiles in bathrooms were gorgeous (and SUPER CLEAN), hardwood floors were so smooth and clean also! Lots of beautiful old-timey furniture! Great ambiant lighting! A very stunning house, with lots of space, indoors and out! Loved it!

We loved our stay in this beautiful home. Check-in was easy and the host was communicative and available. The home was clean and comfortable with so many special features inside and awesome natural beauty outside. The home's location is conveniently located: very close to town as well as the national park. We saw wildlife every day (wild turkeys, mule deer, chipmunks) and felt like we were in nature even though the home is located in a cute neighborhood. We enjoyed playing games next to a roaring fire (that was kindly set up and ready to light) and our family of 5 adults made wonderful memories. The only thing we wished for was a TV in the main living area. We went on our trip during football season and our teams had big games which had to be watched in one of the bedrooms. I was worried about the home not having a/c and I do not like being hot. However, that wasn't a problem at all as there were fans available and the evenings were chilly. We absolutely loved our time in Estes Park and hope to be able to stay in this beautiful home again!

Terrible experience with host. They didn’t leave the check in information. We arrived at 4pm with no access to the property. We had to find another place last minute. 3 hours after check in, host finally calls back. Don’t recommend the host. Can’t tell you about the property as we didn’t stay there.

What a delightful home--so many windows with lovely views. We loved the home's comfortable furnishings and original Art Deco architectural details. Although we didn’t cook more than breakfast, I apprecoated the real cook's kitchen complete with Viking stove, good cookware and sets of china and silverware. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful but just a short drive from grocery store, shopping and downtown.Maybe best of all, we saw a large bull elk on the lawn the first morning.Durango and her assistant Toon responded quickly to questions. The property is lovingly maintained.

This is a gorgeous and comfortable home. It was incredibly clean and the kitchen was well stocked with all the equipment you could possibly want. We enjoyed hanging out on the patio with its views of the nearby mountains and the elk, which passed through the yard! I highly recommend Rockledge and can’t wait to visit again.

We had a wonderful stay at Rockhedge! It’s beautifully decorated and feels like home! The close access to RMNP and Estes Park was so convenient. We were thrilled one morning to watch the elk saunter by!! We were so comfortable as a family of five adults and the house is well stocked and the only thing you need to supply is your food! Thanks you for a wonderful experience!

Unforgettable Stay – Even Better Than the Photos!

This home was absolutely excellent, one of our best VRBO stays ever. The pictures truly don’t do it justice. It’s beautifully maintained, fully stocked with everything you could need, and in the perfect location just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park and downtown Estes.Our kids absolutely loved the house and made countless playful “adventures” out of every nook and cranny.And the views? Let’s just say they’re breathtaking… even from the bathroom. You haven’t truly experienced the Rockies until you’ve admired a mountain vista while sitting on the toilet.The owners were fantastic. They were responsive, helpful, and easy to communicate with. We would absolutely stay here again the next time we’re in town. Highly recommend!
Walk into a beautiful cabin.
Gorgeous dining area.

Beautiful home, convenient location

We loved our stay at Rockhedge. The pictures really don’t do the home justice. They’ve done a great job of maintaining the historic home. The property is so convenient to RMNP as well as the main drag in Estes Park. Our boys loved the stay too. We spotted a marmot a few times on the rocks outside and a massive buck on our last morning. Definitely recommend and would stay here again.
