  • Stunning mountain views looking into
    Rocky Mountain National Park.
    (23-Zone3503) Stroll along the banks of
    the north fork of the big Thompson river
    as we have riverfront access. Rocky
    Mountain National park is only 5 miles to
    the west. Fishing on property and
    numerous wildlife often sighted. Estes
    Park 11 miles West.
    The space
    Beautiful house to enjoy with the entire
    family, with easy access to RMNP and
    Estes Park without having to stay among
    the crowds in town! Riverfront private
    fishing access, and nestled in the North
    fork of the Big Thompson valley! Quick
    and easy access from highway 34 and
    ncredible mountain views 360 degrees
    vith abundant wildlife on property! The
    river is just under 600 feet from the house
    and makes for a nice morning of fishing
    This house is 2 levels with fully finished
    basement. entertainment center, office
    and full bath. upstairs willbe 4 bedrooms,
    2 full baths and a large ķitchen and living
    space. There is a wood burning stove
    nsert in the main living area that you are
    welcome to use. There is no solid fuel
    burning allowed outdoors at Casa Verde
    out we do provide outdoor propane fire
    pits.
    Houses in the Estes area generally are not
    equipped with Air Conditioning as the
    weather is generally on the cooler side.
    We provide fans in all rooms and there is a
    large celling fan in the living room.
    Casa Verde is full of wildlife, that's why
    you're staying with us, but a little caution
    is important when the bears are out. Lock
    your car doors and don't leave any food in
    your car. Also, Rattlesnakes are a visitor to
    Casa Verde occasionally, Just be aware
    with dogs especially. You will have
    excellent opportunities to view multiple
    bird species, EIk, Mule Deer, Moose, Black
    Bears and tons of other small animals.

Clean older home without AC. Did not think to check when I reviewed the description. But for good home and restful time with my adult children and dogs. Loved the fenced in area since the street is so busy. My fur babies loved it.

Great spot to stay while visiting our son. We liked the proximity to trails, easy access to many towns and the National Park. The views from the house and walk to the river were nice as well.

Relaxing weekend for all.

The house was perfect for our family, we all had our own space and got to do our own thing. Whether it was fishing or relaxing the the back yard. Check in was a zip, so easy. The kitchen was perfect, bed rooms nice and big. Loved my bed very comfy.

The place was just right for our needs and the host was very responsive.There were beautiful flowers in vases throughout which were lovely, but were problematic for some of our group who are allergic.One of the bedrooms did not have a fan, but we managed.All in all, we enjoyed ourselves!
