Riverfront Cabin with Private Fishing Access – 10 Min to Estes Park

Scenic Fall Riverfront Cabin – 7 Minutes to Estes Park

This peaceful riverfront mountain cabin is just 7 minutes from Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. Surrounded by golden aspens and pine trees, it offers a quiet retreat with direct river access, private fly fishing, and cozy mountain charm—perfect for fall getaways.

The cabin features a wraparound deck and a private riverside patio with relaxing views of the Big Thompson River. In the fall, the area comes alive with vibrant foliage, bugling elk, and crisp mountain air. Guests can enjoy private fly fishing access to rainbow and brown trout right on the property.

Although secluded and quiet, the cabin is conveniently located just minutes from downtown Estes Park, where you'll find shops, restaurants, and seasonal festivals. Rocky Mountain National Park is only 10 minutes away and offers scenic drives, wildlife viewing, and some of the area’s best hiking.

Inside, the cabin offers soaring ceilings, large windows, and plenty of natural light. A gas fireplace keeps things cozy on cool evenings, and the fully equipped kitchen and dining area make it easy to prepare meals and gather with family or friends. Wood accents throughout give the space a rustic yet welcoming mountain feel.

The cabin comfortably sleeps nine guests. The primary bedroom includes a queen bed and futon. A second bedroom features another queen bed, while the loft includes a full bed. The living room offers a queen sleeper sofa, and a Pack ’n Play is also available for infants or toddlers.

This cabin is ideal for couples, families, or outdoor enthusiasts looking for a quiet place to enjoy Colorado’s beautiful fall season. With unmatched riverfront access, peaceful surroundings, and close proximity to town and trails, it offers the perfect base for both adventure and relaxation.

Fall is a popular time of year in the Rockies. Early booking is recommended to secure your stay during peak foliage season.

Enjoyed our escape to Estes

We had an absolutely wonderful and cozy stay! Great communication. Great accommodations. Great location. The kitchen was stocked with all necessities for cooking. The views are great and the home rests in a very peaceful setting. I loved sitting on the deck (and next to the open windows in the LR) to hear the sounds of the water.

Love the sound of the rushing river!

The host was an excellent communicator, and even volunteered to connect us with a fishing guide. The multi-level property is built into a hill right above the Big Thompson River, and there are stairs down to the river where you can fish for rainbow and brown trout from their property. Well equipped and nicely furnished.

Nice house, no AC

Love the location and river access. The property itself is commensurate with the cost. Our kids enjoyed the property also. Everything was in working order. Only complaint would be that we booked bc the listing said Air Conditioning. There was no AC. That was our main reason for booking. And initially the host was very responsive but never did get replies back for our early check-in or AC question (upon arrival).
