Great cabin near RMNP

This was a perfect place for accessing RMNP, and so cozy and pleasant after a day of hiking. Everything's we needed was there, and the view of the mountains was bonus.

wonderful cozy getaway

we spent our honeymoon here and it was beautiful! we caught some great views and the hosts were incredibly kind and accommodating. the in-house laundry was a lifesaver and it was so nice having a full kitchen to utilize while traveling. 100% would recommend staying here, as we are sure to return in the future.

Rocky Mountain NationalPark

This cottage was perfect for our needs. It had everything we needed plus great views of the mountains. We loved the proximity to Rocky Mountain NP Beaver Meadows entrance. We loved that we could walk to The Rock Inn for dinner. Jay and his wife are wonderful, thoughtful hosts. We would stay here again

About the host

Hosted by Jay Vetter

We retired to Estes Park in 2013 after living in Nebraska for 40 years.

Why they chose this property

The property includes a home in which we live and garage with a loft apartment above it in addition to the cottage. We bought it as our retirement home because of its location and great mountain views. We have vacationed here regularly since 1970 and have always wanted to spend more time here.

What makes this property unique

We appreciate that we have extra space for family to visit and are also able to generate a little extra income while welcoming guests who love this area as much as we do.
