Great location!
Easy access to RMNP which was our main reason for staying there but also close to shops, dining. A little dated in the inside, & it was warm. But the fans and curtains were very helpful. We would stay here again.

Incredibly convenient!
Amazing location - easy walk to town, creek, tram and activities - even better than expected. As other reviews say - it’s an old cottage and a bit shabby but beds were very comfortable and cleanliness was impressive. Worst part was the heat: the big windows do not open so it’s nearly impossible to cool the master and living area - there’s just not enough ways to get airflow.

Greeted by ELK
We were greeted by local Elk when we pulled up to park in front of this Cozy quaint and charming cottage. It has a retro- feel with older fixtures. A step back in time which we loved. A place to get away from it all. Literally 1 min walk to local businesses. Relaxing to come back to at end of day at national park. Local team texted us just before check in and Sarah was readily available with any questions or concerns. We appreciated that! Would recommend.

Great location
The location is great and the size of the house was perfect for our family. I didn’t think not having ac would be an issue but only 2 windows in the house open so it got hot in the afternoons. Some things could use some updating but overall it was a good stay.

Good location. Very comfortable. Clean. Ideal for guys, though some people might find it tired looking and dated. Nit-picky suggestion: change all lighting to warm lights instead of mixture of warm and bright light. Little things make a difference.

Estes Park
We had a wonderful trip. The only issue we had was booking the trip. After we booked and paid for the trip we were told we couldnt stay at the property. We were told we could stay somewhere else but it wouldnt be able to accommodate the amount of ppl we had. Offered a diacount then they changed their minds. The communication between vacasa and myself was awful. I thought we were being scammed. I will never book through this site again.

Close proximity to town
Overall, the house was adequate for what was needed. A place close to the park and close to town and a place to rest our feet and sleep. As with most houses in Estes proper, it's an old house. It has the old musty house smell that went away after opening windows. However, we had to repeat the process every evening since we couldn't leave the windows open while gone. The windows could use an updating - done wouldn't open, some screens were messed up and they were hard to open. Overall, it was close to town which is what we wanted and was a place to sleep. The furniture and bedding were nice and updated.

Location, location, location
We were so impressed to find out how centrally located this little cabin was. It’s perfect for walks downtown, morning runs around the town & to/from Lake Estes and good for getting out to RMNP. I would definitely recommend it. For its small size it was more than adequate space. The generous living room had comfortable seating for our party of five. The panoramic windows made the space light, with good views. The single bathroom was tight but we made due. (A 1/2 bath downstairs would be ideal) We were disappointed to find the tiny yard so unkept. Many weeds were 12-24” tall and it looks to not have been mowed in a very long time. One in our party notice a faint odor in the home, perhaps due to its age. There is a decent amount of shelf space but WAY too many knickknacks to make it useful. (I’d get rid of them all, but I’m not a knickknack person) Not a good choice for people who go to bed very early, as the nighttime bar in the backyard was quite loud until 9:15’ish. No air conditioning for those who like to use it but plenty of fans.

Courtney Cottage, shabby not charming
Courtney Cottage, Estes Park Stay: August 2021 Review The 2-star rating is for being pet friendly and location. We considered a third star for cost, but when the fees are added to the per night rate, the return on investment takes a nosedive! It would have been better to sacrifice location. The description and pictures in the on-line posting depict a charming old cottage that could be considered shabby chic. SHABBY and TACKY are the only words to describe this property. The house is in desperate need of some basic upkeep. Here are some examples: • Carpeting is old, worn and in need of replacement as it is starting to buckle in places. • Doors on the bathroom vanity are loose and don’t close properly. The vanity ought to be replaced. • The toilet ran constantly because the flapper didn’t reseal correctly after flushing. So, the handle had to be positioned just right or the tank lid removed, and the flapper positioned by hand. • The shower curtain liner was about 6-8 inches too long, so the bottom end of it fell well into the tub. This posed a risk of slipping, and it was disgusting to shower with a liner that looked and smelled moldy. • The window shades in one bedroom didn’t work. So, the shades hung down and overlapped on to the floor. • The big picture window in the dining area is dirty and cloudy. After trying to clean it, we decided the glass was just too old to be cleaned. • The kitchen was over stocked with dishes but didn’t have adequate drinking or wine glasses. Plus, when we bought groceries, there was no cupboard space to put anything away. The table in the kitchen area ended being the pantry. • Finally, but the list could go on and on, there were no clothes hangers in the closets. Hangers are an inexpensive and obvious item to have.

Hot hot hot
It was SO hot inside. Outside air was comfortable or even cool, but there was no way to get the air to flow. Bedrooms had windows that would open a few inches and fans. But the big living room was basically a greenhouse that trapped the heat with only a small section of screen on the storm door to let air through. The front door didn’t have a screen so no airflow that way either. Overall it just isn’t as nice as the pictures look.

Cottage
I was surprised to see a propane grill on site. The 3 bedroom cottage served the family get together well and provided a wonderful place to make memories. The views of the mountains and trees were spectacular and being located near downtown Estes Park means I did not need to drive as frequently to shop. I would recommend this place for those that like to be located in town, Estes Park.

Really enjoyed the location and closeness to town activities, although walking up the hill to the front door from town is not easy for a low altitude person. The house had all we needed for 4 people although the shower needs some help to make it more user friendly.

Mixed views
Location was great; ventilation was awful. Worked great when temperatures were cooler, but as temperatures rose, house would not get cool. The lack of a/c was not necessarily an issue, but most windows would not open so ventilation was not possible in most of the house. Provided fans did very little to make house livable. In cooler weather, would be great place to stay — avoid after early June.
