Super clean, A/C worked great, everything worked great, saw 10 elk across street one night and then a pregnant cow elk one morning. The location is incredible. About a 2 block walk maybe to downtown. Would stay here again without hesitation.

The house was perfect for what we needed for our family. It was clean and well thought out. The location was a big plus as we could walk down the hill to the main shops and restaurants whenever we wanted. The two power reclining loveseats were nice to come back to after a long day of hiking. If we make it back to Estes Park in the future we will look to rent the house again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Owl’s Nest in Estes Park.The house was immaculate. Linens were plentiful and of excellent quality. The kitchen was very well equipped. We cooked all our meals. Location was exactly what we wanted…a short walk to Main Street, although a little harder on the return uphill! Our hosts were easyto get in touch with and very accommodating. We would definitely stay again.

This was probably our favorite place we’ve stayed at in Estes Park over the years. The location was within easy walking distance of downtown. The house was stocked well enough that we had everything needed to cook our Thanksgiving dinner. Plus, it had more than enough space and beds to accommodate my family of five. Absolutely amazing!

A wonderful cottage with a great location

This cottage was perfect for our small family reunion! We cooked a lot in the well-stocked kitchen and loved eating on the front deck. One evening we had a great view of many elk! The location allows for quick access to RMNP, and Estes Park shops are just a quick walk away. We hope to return to the Owl’s Nest!

Awesome stay, felt like home. House was walking distance to shops (just be ready for a little hike up hill) Also, was SO well stocked with everything you could need. Rented other places before that had nothing, so this was wonderful! Great spot for us and our 3 kids (12,12 &10) Kids LOVED having tv's in their rooms and lots of streaming tv options to relax with after long day of hiking in RMNP! Awesome stay
