This place is so wonderful I selfishly want to keep it a secret! The views and location are simply breathtaking. There were horses, rabbits, hummingbirds, chipmunks and deer nearby. Estes Park is 10 minutes and RMNP 15 minutes as well. WE WILL BE BACK!

This property has great vibes and great views. It was very clean and close enough to town to make a quick trip to the store, but far enough from town for some peaceful privacy. We will definitely stay here again.

Scenic and comfortable!
What a view!! This place was honestly amazing. The location was about 10 minutes from downtown Estes and the property itself made you feel many miles away from anywhere. The view from the living room is unbeatable. The mountains are showcased through floor to ceiling windows. Everything about this was great and I'd definitely recommend this and stay again!

Terrific getaway. Pictures don't do the views justice and the property has absolutely everything you need. We couldn't find the thermostat and the property managers immediately sent instructions. Honestly, it couldn't have been much better.

Great location and view
The location of the home provided some seclusion but was still close enough to town/park for quick trips if needed. The view of the mountains from the living room was amazing. We saw elk and deer on/near the property on a daily basis and had a visit from a fox on the patio one evening. As far as the home, it had some things that were outdated (70’s feel when we first walked in) but the location and views more than made up for it.

Interesting house, great views. We arranged to rent it but couldn’t stay there because our dog was acting up and we had to stay at the house where she was. Really hope to stay there ourselves someday.

Great Stay!
We loved staying at Stutzhaven! The views from the living room were incredible and the highlight of the stay. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable to stay in. The cleaning company didn’t do a great job though - we found food (dried sausage) and misc objects under the couch. The living room carpet didn’t seem like it was cleaned well either (hair everywhere…not just a strand or two). Otherwise, we rate the house as 9/10!

Stutzhavrn = Relaxation!
Stutzhaven is a great property. Very quiet and secluded but within minutes of Estes Park and the gateways to RMNP. Unfortunately and fortunately the road the home is on was being repaved during the week we rented which was a challenge. But now the road to the home is very nice (we didn't think the road was in much need of repair anyway!). We spent time with family and saw all the sights. The touristy sites were good but the real star of the show in the area is RMNP. Make sure you drive the Old Fall River Road-you won't regret it!

This home looked exactly like the pictures. We picked this house not for the indoor decor, although that was fine, but for the location because we love the outdoors and animals and we were not disappointed by either. You look out the beautiful floor to ceiling windows to a majestic mountain. The outside was my favorite place l’ve ever stayed.We got up before sunrise every morning to walk up the hillside and sit on one of the huge rocks to drink our coffee and watch for wildlife. We were never disappointed. The very first morning a huge bull elk walked right in front of us and posed for the perfect picture. The second morning three mule deer walked right in front of us with those big ears at attention.One night while locking the front gate a huge owl landed on the pole in the front yard. The rugged beauty of the backyard was unmatched, I’d stay there again in a heartbeat. Also, super nice to be able to pull into your own garage to load and unload, especially if like us you had driven 20 hours to get there. We highly recommend this place to anyone who loves nature.

Old and Tired
Just about the worst vacation on record. We chose this home because it had AC and in July we thought we would be more comfortable. As soon as we arrived we received a text that the AC and Heat were not working and they had scheduled a repair on the next day. Well the next day we were invaded by the repair team. Unfortunately they had the wrong part, so no heat and no AC for the entire stay. The Unit had been down for some time and they failed to inform us that it was out of service. They intentionally mislead us and should have informed us so we could make other accommodations. That being said that was just the beginning The morning after our arrival we went to make coffee in the kitchen and were overwhelmed by the smell of rotting mice. We could barely stand being in the kitchen. We notified the management company and soon a guy arrived warring rubber gloves and holding some tongs. Under the kitchen sink were mouse droppings and old filthy mouse traps apparently this has been a problem for a long while. The kitchen is old and tired, the frying pans were warped and had no lids, the potato peeler was stuck to the drawer with some unknown sticky Goo. Most of the living room furniture was at least 30-40 years old. The carpet throughout was in terrible condition and should have been replaced years ago. The view windows were filthy and had not been cleaned this year. The Washer and Dryer were at least 40 years. The garage smelled like Mold. Stay Away!!!!

Mixed Emotions
I gave this an overall 4 because of the views and proximity to Estes Park and RMNP. It was a comfortable place, and in a wonderful location! The first impression was lacking, however. It is outdated and needs updating. I will say it grew on me the longer I stayed. For the fee charged, based on other VRBOs I’ve rented, I was hoping for nicer amenities and updates. Also, we are from the south, so with the temps being in the 40s overnight (like our winter), extra blankets would have been nice. Again, overall worth the stay for the spectacular views, proximity, and easy access (no crazy steep mountain switchbacks), just a bit overpriced.

Perfect Mountain Getaway
This property is fantastic! The home is just outside of Estes, so it feels very private. It’s so, so cozy and made for a great spot to have Thanksgiving with family. The house was equipped with everything we needed to cook the whole dinner, too, which was a complete surprise. We would absolutely return again in summer or winter. Thanks for sharing this great house with us!
