Big Thompson Cabin-Near Estes, RMNP, and Loveland!

This updated cabin with amazing views is conveniently located off Highway 34, nestled on the mountainside with views of the divide. Just 10 miles east of Estes Park gets you out of the hustle and bustle of downtown but just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park, Devil's Backbone hiking area, and Carter Lake! Pop over to Estes Park or Loveland for plenty of places to eat and drink. Excellent porch for taking in nature, the cool mountain breeze and the wonderful view. Thank you for staying!

Cozy Cabin
Super quiet with a beautiful drive through the canyon. The location is perfect if you want to go to either loveland or estes park. Very easy to navigate and perfect for us and our dogs. The host was very attentive and easy to contact. We really enjoyed our staycation in the mountains.

Relaxing and pet freindly
The cabin is clean and has everything you need. The hot tub is new since our last visit. There is no cell service, but that's to be expected due to the location in canyon. The river is beautiful, we saw bighorn sheep twice while driving to town. We like being between Estes Park and Loveland so we visit both. Having the garage is nice but we didn't use it. Finding a nice cabin that allows pets is the best thing ever, our dog loves to travel with us.

Great cabin, stocked with things you need for bath and kitchen. Had to wash the sheets and blankets before sleeping in them due to the overwhelming smell of dogs but other than that it was good. Saw a mama bear and a baby bear outside of the master bedroom! Apparently there’s an apple tree outside the window and The mama climbed it! The hot tub was nice. You can hear the highway but it was bothersome as the sound blended in with the river sound! Darin was responsive and his handyman was awesome!

There was a mishap with the hot tub and it didn’t work. Was to get a discount on the stay, we’ll see. It was finally ready for use the night before we left. The location is great and easy to get to where we wanted to be.

Beautiful area, peaceful, cozy cabin
We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin is located fairly close to the busy road, but you can’t hear it because of the river. The view from the hot tub and porch is unbeatable- with the Mountains and the sunset in view are priceless. A little disappointment came from the cleanliness- there were a rather large amount of chip crumbs and bread crumbs on the comforter and on the ground beside the bed making me think it wasn’t thoroughly cleaned and was a little disturbing. There was also dog hair that was everywhere- floors, couches, beds, but dogs are allowed. So that’s expected as well. I’ve seen comments about the area being overgrown- yes. This is true. It’s a mountain cabin. So it’s what I’d expect. But it’s definitely not groomed/manicured as is pictured- so that’s the only issue to note there. The washer went out while we were there and that was a huge inconvenience since we had a 1 and 2 year old that needed clothes washed. But Darin got it replaced while we were there and refunded some money. Great customer service!!
