Location Details
‘Fisherman’s Dream’ lives up to its name as prime fishing spots abound on this 2+ acre lot and, if you need a change of scenery, Lake Estes is a quick 2-minute drive down the road.
Estes Park also serves as the base camp for Rocky Mountain National Park, where you’ll find miles of trails and abundant wildlife, but before you cruise up Trail Ridge Road, be sure to stop by the historic Stanley Hotel to experience it’s haunting history for yourself!
Spend an afternoon away from the crowds and explore the charming downtown area of Drake, home to bed and breakfasts, quaint boutiques and local eateries. Rock climbers will be pleased to find adventure in Big Thompson Canyon, while nature lovers search for bighorn sheep along the surrounding trails.

4/5 5/5 Great place. Right on river. A little tricky getting into the driveway but overall a wonderful place.

5/5 Enjoyable
5/5 We had an enjoyable, yet too short of a stay. We liked that we were close to Estes and the activities we planned. I really enjoyed sitting out by the river to watercolor paint in the mornings. We didn't do any meal prep there, but the kitchen seemed nicely appointed.My only recommendation is installing towel hangers in the bathroom. There is a hook on the back of the door, which I used for clothes. It was fairly small for hanging 2 wet towels on. And hanging wet towels on a wood door seems wrong.Overall, we had a nice but too short of a stay. Thank you for opening your home up to us.
