The acommodations are clean and well cared for, and could benefit from some additional ventilation/odor eliminator. ##### Har Ye K.

The recliners are old and hard to get out of. The master bedroom bed appears to be newer (king size) and comfortable. Nice views. If anyone has a walk-in inch issue not friendly to walk to town. (Hills) ##### Philip Y. Stayed 5 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Missy W. Jul 29, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming cottage Charming 3 bedroom cottage. The bedrooms are all spaced out which is perfect for families with older children. Everything is on one level (no stairs) making it convenient for individuals with mobility issues. Living rooms is quite spacious and the furniture is comfortable. This cottage has no AC which is common in mountain communities but we were grateful that there were plenty of fans on property to help cool the house down. I was a little disappointed that you have to provide your own hand soap as well as laundry soap. I’ve stayed at many properties where this was included. Check in was ok as you have to go to a separate place off property in order to obtain the code to open the door. This seemed like an unnecessary process. Upon entry into the unit, there were muddy footprints on the carpet in the living room as well as the twin bunk bedroom. Not a good first impression for sure. Overall, good location, comfortable beds and furniture with easy access to local area. ##### Missy W. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris S.

Oct 6, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Centrally located This house was an older home, but maintained well on the inside. Everything you could have needed was inside - we even did a puzzle over the 4 days. Outside could have used some TLC (bushes, shrubs, walk areas. The manager was easy to get in touch with before we arrived, and answered all of our questions. It was easy to get to, and was centrally located to town, shops, and the mountains. Great views! Overall satisfied, but for the cleaning fee they should have had the outside and walk areas clean and clear. ##### Ann H. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### julie m. Jul 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### great location and comfortable place Great location which was perfect for a trip to the National Park. House was cute and comfortable. A few tweaks and would give excellent rating-- but dishwasher was not working and washer arm detached. No communication about this from management. No dishwasher detergent and lacking in a few extras of TLC like instructions on tv, and coffee with sweetener available and not just what was left over from previous tenants. Outside lights had about half the bulbs out. Enjoyed it regardless-- ##### julie m. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marlene O.

Views of the Rocky Mountains and Stanley Hotel made it extra special. We also enjoyed being able to take a short 5 minute walk to the main strip of stores and restaurants. The house is located just a short drive to the National Park entrance making it easy to get around. We loved coming home to a peaceful escape after a day of exploring. We cant wait to go back. Estes Park and Bear Pause definitely have a place in our Floridian hearts ♥️. ##### Marlene O. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Judith H.
