Charming Idaho Springs 3 Bedroom home, sleeps 7.
Wow! Our group of 6 adults, 2 small children, and 3 dogs had the BEST time. The house is right near the cute downtown area and about a mile from the Argo Mine. We spent time shopping and eating downtown, went on the mine tour, and drove up to Echo Lake for a hike. All awesome! The kitchen had so many great appliances and dishware which was amazing because we cooked a big dinner one of the nights and we grilled out on the back deck. Also well stocked with kid friendly dishes. The bedrooms were all very comfortable and the upstairs area we fit two pack n plays and 2 adults sleeping up there. We would definitely come back and would highly recommend for a family friendly weekend!

We loved this property. It was perfect for our group and everyone had their own room and space. The views of the Stanley hotel are so beautiful. Location is super walkable and we never needed a car. Highly recommend, Thank you for hosting us!

Guests Love Stellar Location in Central Park!
We’ve stayed at Peggy’s multiple times and it’s always a pleasure to be there. Great location!

North Boulder Family Home
We had an unexpected forced vacation due to Water damage in our home, our family had to move out while the floors were being redone. Heather and Chip’s North. Boulder location is walking distance to the foothills where you can hike, ride bikes, and walk to coffee shops and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and clean. Their home is spacious and loaded with high end amenities with plenty of indoor and outdoor space. It ended up being the best scenario for our family! We’re so glad it worked out and highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a North Boulder getaway!

Highlands Area Private Basement with Living Room
My stay at Renee’s and Miguel’s home was very enjoyable while visiting Denver. I appreciated having my own space in the basement. The location is close to downtown Denver which was helpful throughout my visit. Having access to a washer and dryer was a great amenity to have. The hot tub at night was very calm and comfortable. I was easily able to sleep comfortably throughout my stay. They were also accommodating with some packages I had delivered to their home. I asked while I was away if a package could be placed in my Airbnb. Renee placed the package in my quarters while I was away which I greatly appreciated. The surrounding neighborhood has many necessities within walking distance. From supermarkets, gas stations, restaurants, and breweries this Airbnb has the conveniences that travelers need. I also enjoyed my conversation with Miguel. He was very friendly, knowledgeable of the area, and welcoming. I highly recommend staying at Renee’s and Miguel’s Airbnb when visiting Denver.

Hide-A-Way River Cabin w/Screened-in Porch
WOW this place was absolutely breathtaking. We woke up in the morning to snow capped mountains in the distance and a river rolling near the cabin. The cabin was exceptionally clean. The hot tub was phenomenal and I could not think of better caretakers of the land and the cabins than Lee and his wife they are truly truly wonderful people.

Charming Mountain Cabin
This place was perfect! I stayed there with 6 buddies and we played in the Colorado Pond Hockey Tournament in Georgetown. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep. The garage had pool, darts, and foozeball which kept us all entertained. The living room had a huge tv with a fireplace which was great for relaxing. The views from the deck were beautiful. Would highly recommend this place

Violet Sky Pilot Cabin at Wild Acre Cabins
The main goal of our trip to Grand Lake was achieved: to enjoy the snow. We loved our Airbnb, the hosts are friendly and respond quickly, the place is comfortable and warm (cheers to the heater, we were surrounded by snow and felt very warm). The location is great, we found several activities and restaurants nearby. Just a heads up if your goal is to go to RMNP: the roads to the park were closed (we went in March) so there is no access to the main parts of the park from the Grand Lake entrance. However, we found many breathtaking views and a lot of nature in the area!

The Fisherman's Cabin @ Pine Haven Resort
We had a lovely night in this cabin, very cozy and comfortable. I’d love to come back.

Lakefront Cozy Cabin in the Mountains !!
We've stayed at this place more than once, it is extremely cozy with lovely views and great nature just outside the door. Our family enjoys just relaxing and playing board games and sitting by the fire here.

Large house with a driveway parking spot. Great house for a larger group. Nice, large kitchen for cooking or hanging out.

Pet-Friendly Suite w/ Fenced Garden, HotTub, Sauna
Chris and Daniel’s place was very relaxing. My small family of 3 booked last minute due to kitchen remodel delays. We really liked the Airbnb it was nice and peaceful . The bbq was great to make grilled meats and the hot tub was great . The 420 friendly part was a great addition as well. We felt very welcomed and enjoyed our weekend stay .

Downtown Denver Victorian Escape 🐶🏠 Dog Friendly
Fantastic place for a get together! Wonderful location and the home is well stocked. Andrew is a great host and the price is right. Highly recommend!

WestboundBNB |Cedar Spa| Close to Red Rocks & DT
Lovely and homey stay, quiet and clean neighborhood. Only thing is it was a bit unclean, I found blond hair in my shower, and the only blond person on our trip hadn’t gone in there. They could use a deep cleaning especially if there’s going to be a cleaning fee, but overall lovely stay with responsive and helpful hosts.

Bear Creek TWO by Notable Vacation Rentals
If you are looking for an affordable place that is close to downtown without being in it, this is a great choice. The house was comfortable for us 4 guests and my dog, easy to find things in the home, in a quiet spot, and right behind a creek which added to the atmosphere. There's a pub right next door as well. The hosts sent a lot of communication and gave us a heads up about the weekend weather, and were always friendly and responsive. I dont have anything but great things to say about the rental and hosts. This will definitely be an option for lodging again in the future.

Great Hiking Out the Door, Skiing Just Up the Road
Very spacious home close to shopping, restaurants and I-70 to head up the mountain. The beds were very comfortable. This is a hidden gem and loved our dogs were able to feel at home.

Cabin with Private Hot Tub and Mountain Views
My husband and I really needed to get away from stress and life responsibilities and this sweet little cabin fit the bill. We were able to make a last minute reservation and Pat was wonderful to communicate with and was very helpful. The cabin was simple and cozy and the bed was amazing! We slept like babies and came home relaxed and refreshed!

Secluded Haven - Pet Friendly Downtown Condo
Great place! We booked this place with 5 friends to go hiking at RMNP and it was perfect! Everyone was comfortable and enough space for everyone. The kitchen it’s small but still worked to prep sandwiches and breakfast for our trip. The only small thing it’s that the wifi is a little slow.

Your guide to Estes Park
All About Estes Park
Estes Park is a beautiful mountain getaway, nestled in the foothills of northwestern Colorado near Rocky Mountain National Park, where you can spot elk regularly wandering the streets. It’s a scenic hub for many visitors wanting to explore the park. The small town, which is just under seven square miles, is home to over 6,000 residents, and great local restaurants and breweries.
This area has cultural roots dating back to the Arapaho and Sioux tribes, the original custodians of this land. Pioneers, hunters, and inventors eventually followed, and many of the buildings they erected are still standing as historical markers to this past.
The natural landscape surrounding Estes Park is known for its lush hiking trails, crystal-clear lakes, and phenomenal stargazing. If you pass through in the wintertime, you’ll find the locals skiing, snowshoeing, or staying in a cozy Estes Park condo rental.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Estes Park
If you’re looking for water sports, the best time to visit Estes Park is from June to September. This is prime time to go whitewater rafting or take a boat out on the water as the weather is mild and dry. Other summer activities include hiking, biking, and climbing.
Winter in the Rocky Mountains is extraordinary but the rural roads are not for the faint of heart. You can still visit the Rocky Mountains during winter, but be prepared to drive on snowy, winding mountain roads that can be tricky to navigate. While average winter temperatures are below freezing, this is also the perfect climate to go snowboarding, skiing, and snowshoeing. Regardless of which season you visit, there’s a home rental in Estes Park, Colorado waiting for you.
Top things to do in Estes Park
Estes Park Riverwalk
This mile-long, tree-lined path runs along the Big Thompson River on the backside of Elkhorn Avenue, downtown’s main street. Start from Estes Park Visitor Center and discover mom-and-pop shops, patio bars, and local coffee shops which offer direct access from the trail. As you walk, try to spot the 12 bronze statues of pikas (cute mountain-dwelling animals) which are part of a local scavenger hunt.
Cycling
Take an open-air ride through the famous Rocky Mountain National Park with experienced mountain cyclists as your guide. The tours can last anywhere from three to eight hours, depending on your experience level. Book a tour in advance with a local outfitter, who can provide the bicycle, helmet, water, and snacks.
Park Theater
Built in 1913, this theater is one of the oldest operating motion picture theaters in the country. Watch everything from blockbuster films to documentaries here while fueling up on sandwiches and beer from the snack bar. Fun fact: the theatre has an 80-foot neon sign on the front of the building which required the city’s special permission to use.
