My family and I stayed here for a week. The place was super nice. The loft was amazing for afternoon rest from hiking. We love the hot tub and the location was incredible. A short walk to downtown made it easy to shop and experience all the Estes has to offer. Would definitely stay again!

The home was very clean, well organized and relaxing.Having a hot tub (also very clean) on the deck close to the kitchen was great. It was so calming to sit in it with my first cup of morning coffee even though it was 45 deg outside.The Estes Park Aerial Tram is a rock's throw-ish from the back of the house. That alone saves a "few" bucks on parking. The trip to the top is exiting and its history very interesting.Definitely head downtown to window shop, people watch and enjoy all the fun places to eat. A drive not even 10 miles out of town will put you in breathtaking views of mountain tops far above and some very gorgeous homes with that rustic Colorado architecture.Laura and Mark Richins are fabulous hosts. I'd not spoken with Mark, but Laura has the patience of Job and was always quick to return a call or text.My wife and I intend to move to Estes Park in a couple of years. This trip cemented our excitement about doing so.

The house was great. Had everything we needed. The stairs to the family room can be difficult to navigate for older folks. They are steep and narrow. Loved the location...we walked right over to the tram and its very close to downtown. The owners are very responsive. Highly recommend.

Rocky Retreat

Our family visited Estes Park for the 1st time this past week. We stayed at the Rocky Retreat and could not have been happier with our choice. The hosts were very responsive to requests or questions and did everything they could to make our stay memorable. This house is situated in a great spot, close to town, shops, restaurants, and RMNP.

Great House

We loved the house in Estes - great location and was easily walkable to downtown breweries & restaurants. Unfortunately there was a heat wave the couple nights we were there, there is no AC which I’m sure most days are not needed, if you are sensitive to heat please keep this in mind. It was definitely toasty especially during the day! Other than that issue that is uncontrollable - we had an excellent stay and would definitely book again. Thanks!

Great stay for the cost

In terms of proximity to the park and downtown Estes Park it was a great location. We were able to get to everything we wanted to do. The house offered a hot tub, washer/dryer and full kitchen. There is no air conditioner so the hot days were 78 degrees on the main floor, noting it was much warmer upstairs. There is opportunity to give more attention to details around the property but everything was functional with the exception of the Wi-Fi and some TV remotes, but was addressed upon reaching out to the hosts, who were very helpful. Some of the conditions of the furniture, lighting and structure of the house are off but it suited our needs without breaking the bank.

Estes Cabin Experience

We had a great experience at the Rocky Retreat! This is walking distance to the downtown area (although quite a hill to get to house so it might be challenging for elderly etc). The house worked great for us. Everything was labeled, they had coffee kups, seasoning, and some snacks for guests. Plenty of towels, and washing machine. The master bedroom and bed were the best part. It’s very cute, relaxing and the bed is very comfortable. They have a ton of games for families, too! Great communication from the owners.

Perfectly comfortable all around and we settled in easily. Taking a glass of wine on the deck and watching the clouds moving in to shroud the surrounding peaks... soaking in the spa... all of it so inspiring. Couples will enjoy myriad comfort elements.
