The perfect getaway in the Rocky Mountains. Only minutes from downtown and Rocky Mountain National Park, nestled on the edge of the forest covering Rams Horn Mountain. Hike out the back door and enjoy the abundant wildlife found here. Two decks offer ample space to breathe in the crisp mountain air while looking down on Mary's Lake and the Town of Estes Park below.
A classic mountain retreat with rough-hewn timber accents and abundant outdoor spaces to enjoy remind you that this town is all about the mountains and outdoors. Sleeping arrangements include a master bedroom with a king bed, 2nd bedroom with a queen bed, and 3rd bedroom with a twin over twin bunk bed.

This cozy home is part of a 22-unit association that has put together a very nice and quiet neighborhood. The neighbors are awesome and also enjoy the quiet nature of the neighborhood. If you are looking for a place to cut loose and be a little noisy, you will probably be disappointed here. The neighborhood adheres to the Estes Park municipal noise ordinance that is enforced after 10pm. They also appreciate and enforce the Dark Sky initiative that allows the sky to stay dark for wonderful stargazing.
The very best part about this location is the feeling of being in the wilderness with nothing but forest on two sides of the house - but only 5 minutes to town. There are two routes to downtown Estes Park giving options depending on which side of town you are going to avoid the summer traffic. Also, you can get to the entrance of RMNP in less than 10 minutes without having to go through downtown Estes Park when it's busy.
Head south on St Vrain/Hwy 7 out of town for one of the best scenic drives in the entire state - also called the Peak to Peak Hwy - it takes you right past Longs Peak and some of the most beautiful views of the northern mountains you can find. The Wild Basin entrance to RMNP can be found off this road just 20 minutes to the south of the house.
IMPORTANT: The house has a regular-sized two-car garage. There is a very short driveway which is not large enough to park a car. The only parking for this property is the two-car garage. Parking on the street at any time is not permitted and will result in a complaint and/or fine. A large truck (like a Ford F250/350) will not fit in the garage.
Unfortunately, there is no other parking for this property at the house or in the neighborhood. If you have a 3rd vehicle or a large vehicle, you will have to make plans to park somewhere else that allows overnight parking, or booking a different property may be best.
