Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth J., Missoula, MT USA Jun 3, 2019 #### Estes Park, CO We loved the layout, all the rooms and the decks were great. The location spectacular. The checking was a little slow and some things need some work but it worked for us. We had a child graduating in Fort Collins and we spent the day there and then rented a party bus one night so the grad and friends could spend the night in town. We had 22 year old to 88 year old and it worked for everyone. ##### Elizabeth J.

Our family really enjoyed this house! You can't beat the price for the location and view! You can rent the bottom and top floors separately; however, I don't feel like either floor would have much privacy if you rented with a family you don't know. While mostly separate, the bottom floor is accessible without a code (the code is on an interior door down there...hard to explain). The top floor is good for couples but the bottom floor (because of the bunk room/shared bathroom) is better for a family maybe with kids. Overall it was a great rental! ##### Nicole M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Ann S., Auburn Alabama Aug 8, 2018 #### 4th of July in the Rockies We had a wonderful week in the Otis Cabin. Our large family appreciated the spacious multi story layout and all ages had plenty of their own space. The kitchens (both upstairs and downstairs) were well stocked with utensils and plenty of appliances. Beds were comfortable and the bathrooms had lots of sundries and towels. We liked the location which was perfect to see fireworks over Lake Estes. Instead of fighting traffic after the display we were “home sweet cabin”. Check-in and check-out were super easy! The cabin is close to downtown...movie theatre and Safeway grocery store. Everyone agreed we need to book this again! ##### Mary Ann S.

Stayed with my family of 6 adults and 6 children and it worked great for us. One family had the downstairs and the other the upstairs. First night we were there, 3 deer walked through the property! Every day they were down the street under a deck on another property resting. The next night an elk was grazing on our property! Very exciting! Close to everything but very quiet. Clean and well equipped. First time we had lived without air conditioning for years and it didn't bother us at all! Just wish all the windows had screens on them so we could have opened and the patio door didn't have a screen. Wonderful stay though! Thanks Discovery Lodge! ##### Patti S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meryl G. Sep 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Big Estes Park Convenience An excellent choice for multi-family gatherings. LOTS of sleeping space and bathrooms. Beds very comfortable. We were 2 families with 3 kids under age 5 plus two grandparents. And we didn't use all the sleeping spaces. Big main kitchen - very well equipped with more than enough dishes, flatware and lots of pots and pans. Everything in working order. Another small kitchen in the downstairs unit, but no stove there. Extra frig space great. Decor was a bit dated and nothing fancy, which was fine for us because of then not feeling that we had to be hovering over the kids all the time because of breakables. We were only there for 4 days so did not use the washer/dryer, which were small (apt. sized) so don't plan to wash lots of linen or towels, but fine for small loads of clothing. Outside deck (needs some maintenance but is safe) with beautiful views which we used a lot. Great gas grill in working order. And the owner had recently furnished the deck with lots of chairs so we could all have sitting space if we wanted, in addition to the table and chairs outside for eating. We were there during quite warm days (mid-80s) but the evenings cooled off very quickly, so no AC was never a problem. Beautifully cool at night. Windows all had screens in good condition, so no problem having windows open at night. A 5 minute drive to Safeway and town - probably a 20 minute walk, and you have to walk on a main, busy road, which is why we chose to drive when we had the kids with us. Quite private at the end of a dead end street. Lots of space for car parking. And - the elk who visited and had dinner in the front yard was an added bonus! A very good choice for lots of people to stay close to town and Rocky Mountain Park. ##### Meryl G. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### David B.

Aug 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good Property There were 7 of us there attending our daughter's wedding. There are 5 bedrooms and twin beds set up in the living area downstairs. There was plenty of room for all of us and it met our needs. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck in the evening. The towels in the upstairs bathrooms left something to be desired, but we had read about the towel situation in previous reviews so brought several of our own, which helped. We didn't use the hot tub, but would have needed more towels if we had. The hot tub looked nice!! It was clean and looked new. We all wished we had brought bathing suits to enjoy it. This isn't a super high-end, luxurious property, but it is spacious, clean, and met our needs for the weekend. Check in at the Discovery Lodge hotel was easy, and the clerks there explained that we could use the hotel amenities (pool, hot tub, continental breakfast). We didn't do that, but knowing we could was nice. All in all, this was a good property and we have good memories of staying there. Would stay again if we needed that many bedrooms. ##### Lori A.

Jul 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Decent, could be better Tried multiple times to contact the property manager and couldn’t get a hold of them. We didn’t have WiFi the whole time we were there. The front door didn’t always close the front door. When checking in still couldn’t get ahold of anyone. Sat for a long time trying to get ahold of the manager until I decided to walk around and see if doors were unlocked that’s how we got In. The property says 6 bedrooms but what it doesn’t tell you is the 2 twin beds are actually part of the living area downstairs and not it’s own room so there are only 5 bedrooms. It worked for what we needed but was disappointed by the way it was handled. Also when we got there the trash outside was filled and we couldn’t throw trash away and one of the windows upstairs had a break in it when we got there. ##### Shawn-Taylor H.

Their phone went into a nighttime voicemail during the day. Didn’t seem to be around to answer the phone. It was the Discovery lodge. We needed more towels and toilet paper and had to call to get the trash can outside emptied on our first day there. They eventually did take care of all our concerns but it took several calls.

Jun 28, 2021 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Shady The biggest complaint was that the TV wasn't working. We called to have it fixed, and 2 gentleman showed up to "fix" the TV. They said they couldn't fix it. However, on the way out they grabbed my nephew's handheld Game Console, his Switch. Luckily my nephew saw them and ran out the door after them. They pretended to not hear him and my dad yelling at them. My nephew ended up having to taking his switch out of the guys hand to get it back. When we called to let the office know what happened, they didn't even know who they sent to our house. They sent a second guy to "fix" the TV. He had to open an account to get the TV working, which made us wonder if they even ever had an active account. We had called the office for more towels and never received them. At check in they tried to charge us again for the cleaning fee and dog fee that we had already paid through VBRO. We also experienced a strong cigarette smell throughout the house that was an issue for our family with breathing issues. We did notify VBRO about our experience. ##### Jennifer or Rebecca S.

While the building itself is dated, the interior appointments are upgraded and very nice. It has a full kitchen upstairs with fairly new appliances. The frig is really roomy, the dishwasher worked great. The heating system in the house is up-to-par for keeping you warm in the wintertime. We didn't use them, but there is a clothes washer & dryer just off the kitchen. It is a dog friendly house and we brought two with us. Large yard and adjacent areas for them to walk. We were a group of six for two nights, with ten more visiting for Sunday to celebrate our fiftieth wedding anniversary. The total price was on the high side, but for six adults and two dogs, who knows. I would recommend the use of this house for those looking to get away, but be close to downtown and of course the Stanley Hotel, just .8 miles away. A nice walk if you would like to get the exercise. ##### Paul H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim M.

Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michelle M. Aug 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Large but needs serious maintenance for safety We knew that the property was not new and needed updates. We knew some pictures might not reflect the property accurately. But, we also knew it could accommodate our large group (6 adults, 2 teens, 4 kids) and was a good location close to RMNP. The house has many positives. We rented both floors, meaning we had 5 total bedrooms and 7 beds plus one working couch bed. It was clean. The kitchen has been recently finished and was mostly well stocked. But we had several frustrating issues during our stay. Number one is that the dryer simply did not dry clothes. We were counting on having a washer and dryer. They were both small, which is fine, but we would put a load of socks in for an hour and they would still be completely wet. We called the office several times, and, presumably, someone came out to fix it. It still did not to work. We were told to put fewer things in the dryer. We did this, but it still did not work. We ended up simply hanging up all of our clothes inside or out on the deck. Not the end of the world, but frustrating, especially with three different families staying. Another frustrating aspect of the property is the deck. One reviewer had already commented that the pictures showed many chairs as well as a fire pit. When we arrived, there were 3 chairs on the deck and no fire pit. No fire pit with the dry climate and a wood deck seems understandable (but don’t advertise it in pictures, please), but having 3 chairs on a property meant for 12 plus people is simply ridiculous. We called the office, and they delivered 5 or 6 plastic chairs. Still not enough for our whole family, but better than 3. The deck itself is another issue. At one point, the leg of a chair went through the wood with someone sitting on it. The wood is rotting and is a a huge safety hazard. Perhaps the reason for only 3 chairs is to discourage people from sitting on it. Another safety issue occurred when I plugged a lamp into an outlet downstairs in a wall with wood paneling and it started smoking. The cord was completely frayed. I was very glad it had been me plugging it in and not one of the children. What a terrible fire hazard. Suggestions: -update your pictures (some furniture in pics is NOT at house) to accurately represent current house -replace leather couch upstairs- it AWFUL and bed inside broken -kitchen needs reorganizing (ex. 12 champagne flutes but 2 wine glasses, pastry cutter (?) but no carrot peeler) ##### Michelle M.

Aug 8, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great mountain view This is a nice place to stay, but it needs some work. The back deck needs to be replaced, & there is a table in the basement that has a broken leg. ##### Michael S. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### sharon c. Jul 14, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Horrible Management The manager at discovery lodge was rude not getting not to us but to other customers. Poor communication prior to our stay and after. Not given information about how to check out, we left a message but was never returned. Discover lodge tried to change the price significantly after we were already booked. Had to get Vrbo involved. House needs upgrading, needs new carpet. Beautiful area. ##### sharon c. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Kimpton Hotel Monaco Denver by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Kimpton-Hotel-Monaco-Denver.h139793.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Denver Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Denver-Downtown.h15849785.Hotel-Information) > > [INNhale Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Colorado-Springs-Hotels-INNhale-BB-Resort.h35612026.Hotel-Information) > > [The Broadmoor](https://www.expedia.ca/Colorado-Springs-Hotels-The-Broadmoor.h6096.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Denver Union Station, CO](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Denver-Union-Station.h32947984.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Denver at Colorado Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Denver-At-Colorado-Convention-Center.h1366244.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Westin-Denver-Downtown.h23697.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Denver](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Denver.h24031.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brown Palace Hotel and Spa, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Brown-Palace-Hotel-And-Spa.h14505.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Denver Downtown by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Denver-Downtown.h2787.Hotel-Information) > > [the Curtis Denver - a DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Curtis-Denver-A-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel.h19267.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Westminster](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Westin-Westminster.h444871.Hotel-Information) > > [Magnolia Hotel Denver, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Magnolia-Hotel-Denver.h50514.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Meridien Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Denver-Downtown.h17443003.Hotel-Information) > > [Warwick Denver](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Warwick-Denver.h6852.Hotel-Information) > > [St Julien Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Boulder-Hotels-St-Julien-Hotel-And-Spa.h1159623.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Sheraton-Denver-Downtown-Hotel.h8398.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Denver-Downtown.h11526513.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Avon-Hotels-Park-Hyatt-Beaver-Creek-Resort-And-Spa.h2227.Hotel-Information) > > [The St. Regis Aspen Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Aspen-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Aspen-Resort.h5594.Hotel-Information) > > [Aspen Mountain Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Aspen-Hotels-Aspen-Mountain-Lodge.h524.Hotel-Information) > > [Tru By Hilton Denver Downtown Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Tru-By-Hilton-Denver-Downtown-Convention-Center.h39639972.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Vail Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Vail-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Vail.h14937343.Hotel-Information) > > [Sonesta Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Sonesta-Denver-Downtown.h6727.Hotel-Information) > > [Halcyon - a hotel in Cherry Creek](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Halcyon-A-Hotel-In-Cherry-Creek.h14797469.Hotel-Information) > > [Snowflake Meadows](https://www.expedia.ca/Steamboat-Springs-Hotels-Snowflake-Meadows.h25007119.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Denver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Denver-Downtown.h84621.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Denver](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Denver.h3849336.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rally Hotel at McGregor Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Rally-Hotel.h64047016.Hotel-Information) > > [The Maven Hotel at Dairy Block](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-The-Maven-At-Dairy-Block.h17289253.Hotel-Information)
