This home was absolutely perfect for our family gathering over spring break. There were a total of six adults, one teen, one three year old and one infant and there was plenty of room for all of us to spread out. We chose this home for the gorgeous setting, but also for the one level layout as we have a child with special needs. It was wonderful. The location is just minutes from the national park and also from the downtown area. So many local restaurants to choose from with several breweries too. Communication with owner Jane was super easy...she responded within minutes when I needed to message or call her with a question. This was the best stocked home we have ever rented through VRBO. Plenty of pots and pans, silverware, glasses, pillows and extra blankets. Lastly, the beds were awesome. I highly recommend this home to anyone seeking a beautiful getaway in Estes Park.

We loved this home ! What a beautiful spot and relaxing atmosphere . It felt very comfortable and had plenty of room for everyone to have their own space but also to have time together! We loved sitting in the hot tub and listening to the River . Thank you

After finally getting a flight out of San Antonio, we were of to Estes Park. Just so happened for our trip to Estes, the had received mor snow than the last few years. It was a white knuckle ride up the mountain. But onece we made it to Estes all was good. We arrived the the house to I bet 3 feet of snow. Our host Jane kept in contact with us tell we made it to the houses. Not much to do in Estes with the amount of snow they had received. Parks closed trails closed. But we had an amazing time with the family playing in the snow, making smores, and enjoying the wildlife. The driveway and road to the house was plowed an maintained to allow access in and out. Just some great family time, im sure we will be back to roll the dice on the weather. Everything was fantastic and did i tell you our host Jane was a Rockstars. Don't miss your chance to enjoy the ho.e for you trip to Estes Park. Definitely a 5 🌟 property!

This home is exactly as described! The Big Thompson River runs right behind it and the views are beautiful… The house is very well appointed and stocked with everything necessary. We will definitely be returning❤️

I stayed with a group of friends/colleagues on a snowshoeing trip. We all had plenty of room and comfortable places for hanging out together. The property is super close to the National Park entrance and convenient to shops/restaurants. Communication with Jane about check-in, etc was clear and easy. Would choose to stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay and it exceeded our expectations. Great communication and WELL STOCKED home. The layout of the bedrooms and bathrooms was perfect for three families sharing the space. We’d love to stay here again. Highly recommend.

great property - owners were very easy to deal with, recommend when you are in Estes area

This property was perfect for our family of six adults and four kids. We stayed during elk fest with elk just across the river in the open field. Then they crossed the river and were on our road. We also saw deer and turkeys next to the house. Home is well appointed with a deck next to the river. We caught several fish just out the back door. It is a short car ride to Estes Lake and the downtown area. Home is very comfortable. We recommend this location.

This home had everything we had hoped for in a vacation rental. The home was clean and spacious and accommodated our group well(we had older adults, young adults and two toddlers in our family).The location was perfect! The kitchen was well stocked. Beds were comfortable. Bathrooms were clean. Lots of tv's, games, books, you name it, this house had it.

Fantastic location and lots of room for family

Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the River Home - the space was large and well equipped, the location in Estes Park was convenient to everything we wanted to do, and we felt right at home! Jane communicated effectively and was very helpful both before and during our stay. I don't hesitate to recommend her home to anyone seeking a relaxing and convenient stay in Estes Park!

This home has a wonderful location and is very spacious. It was a good size for our 11-person group and well-stocked with things we needed. We loved that the table could comfortably seat all of us so we could eat together. The hot tub was wonderful and we were able to easily cook several meals in the lovely kitchen. The owner also was kind enough to let one member of the group who forgot his pillow to return to the property and fetch it, which we appreciated. A word of warning: prior to arrival, this owner created a stressful and unwelcoming environment, including calling me with her “concerns” about our group after she Googled us and/or looked us up on social media. For several years, our group of chosen family (11 working professionals, ranging from age 29-37), had been dreaming of a cabin weekend where we could play board games in the mountains. Upon booking, we were asked for our names, ages, and phone numbers, which I gladly provided. Four days before our arrival, I received an 8 a.m. phone call from Jane. She stated she was “concerned” due to us being “young people” and that one of our friends “worked at a brewery.” I had never told her all our occupations, so she had looked us up online. My friend works in marketing at a brewery, and I felt he was discriminated against due to his occupation. I literally had to persuade her we didn’t have nefarious intentions. There were also cameras in the garage not disclosed in the listing description until after booking.

We had a family getaway for the Thanksgiving week. The Bear House offered plenty of room for our families- including a layout that allowed the little ones to go to sleep and the adults to be able to make noise in living areas. Also close to Rocky Mountain Park and downtown Estes Park.

Everything was perfect! We couldn't have asked fora better deluxe cabin on the Big Thompson. We will onl

It is a beautiful setting for this home. It worked out well for our group of 12 and we would stay again if we are back in the area

This house was perfect for our group of 10. We had family members from 1 years old to 82 years old. The layout of the house with minimal steps was perfect for our family. The house was very clean and well maintained. The kitchen was very well equipped and the large dining room table was perfect as we prepared and ate most of our meals there. The setting next to the river is scenic and relaxing. The owner contacted us shortly after we arrived and again later during our stay to make sure everything was ok and asked us if anything needed attention. She was very responsive to any question we had. I would stay here again if our future travels bring us back to Estes Park.

The home is beautifully maintained and has all the things needed for a relaxing stay overlooking a lovely river. The host communicated with prompt responses and seem to genuinely care that we had wonderful time. And we did. Beds were comfortable, home was clean, kitchen was well stocked and TV system made movie night fun. We’d love to return. Thank you

Our family came to Estes to enjoy the autumn color and this home did not disappoint! The location, right on the river with views of Rocky Mountain National Park, could not be beat! We got to see a herd of elk right across the water, just feet away from the back patio. The home was incredibly clean, had beautiful, rustic decor and provided plenty of space for our group of 9. We spent a lot of time outdoors and very much enjoyed the back views, listening to the river, and stargazing while relaxing in the hot tub. If you’re looking to book a family vacation, look no further! This house has it all! Thank you Jane for sharing your lovely home with us!

Beautiful spacious home with incredible views. Having the river just a few feet away was amazing.

This house was beautiful and perfect for our two families. Very spacious, clean, and well kept and located in a peaceful neighborhood. The kids had a fantastic time for their first national park experience. Thanks again.

This was the best family vacation we have ever had bar none. Thank you Jane

Great location for this awesome rental cabin on the Big Thompson river. Cabin was wonderful, everything we expected and more. Highly recommend this cabin. Comfortable for our group of 11. Cabin was clean and owner was great to work with.

Absolutely positively wonderful! We have been coming to Estes Park from Tx, every other year for over 25 years. Our family has grown over the years from 4 to 10. This house, has been by far the BEST! Loved everything about it-the location, the layout, & the personal service from Jane. Our plans are to be back to Estes & stay here again & again! Thank you, from a grateful family for helping to be a part of our special memories! We are blessed & may you be also! Duane & Susan H.

The house was great and we had lots of room to spread out. The outdoor area is very nice and we all enjoyed sitting out by the river. The kitchen is fully stocked and we cooked several meals. The kids played lots of air hockey and pool and spent some time in the hot tub. We had a large elk right outside the house. It was very comfortable for our extended family of ten.

We had a wonderful time with family. The house is in a great location. It’s close to town and close to the National Park. We would stay here again!

The house and property are wonderful! We all had a great time here. The kids loved the air hockey and ping pong. Adults loved the views and the quiet. The kitchen was well stocked with all kinds of pots, pans and anything you need to cook. Many spices! We appreciated the host checking in with us. There was an issue with the hot tub, but she immediately arranged for someone to come and fix it and we were able to enjoy it for our stay. If you have a big family I would highly recommend this property. Plenty of room for everyone to have fun or quiet time to themselves. You will see elk, deer and other wildlife. Beautiful!

We had a very nice stay in Estes Park. The house is located close to town and is in a beautiful area. We watched the elk across the river every day and enjoyed listening to the river as we sat in the hot tub. The beds are very comfortable, kitchen well stocked and family and dining rooms are great for a group. The owner was very responsive, checking in with us once we arrived and following up the day we left. Great time!

Our overall process is a 5*! All the way from booking to check out. The owner kept in touch with us throughout the weekend as well. We spent the weekend with a group of friends and we had a blast! We cooked our meals and hung out. The layout of the house was perfect for us! We’re interested in staying here again soon. We highly recommend this property!

Beware: The owner of this property is NOT AN HONEST BROKER... We had one heck of a time dealing with this host. She will slap on extra fees after your check out. When confronted she is rude and uncooperative. The beds are worn out, the internet does not work in more than half of the house. The house, hot tub and property was not properly cleaned from the guests before us, the air hockey table doesn't work, and if you have any questions during your stay she is very very rude when responding. She charges large cleaning fees and expects you to wash all towels and linens before your 10am checkout. I would steer clear of dealing with this host.

This home was beautiful and the view was even better! We loved it and plan on staying again!

Such a great relaxing experience. We have such great family memories from this stay. Gorgeous property ! Thank-you Jane .

This cabin was perfect for our big family with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and an amazingly spacious great room. The dining table fit us all. I loved the steam shower in the master bath and all the window views of the river.
