Firm beds

The beds were firm for our tastes, ages from 90 to 15. The drain on the bathroom sink could only be opened or clsed from under the sink. Overall a good experience.

Good But Not Perfect

Overall it was a wonderful location and the cabin was comfortable. The biggest complaint is that it was advertised as having cable in the room and wifi available, but the cable was not working and the wifi was so poor that it was essentially non-functional. I wouldn’t have minded if it was advertised that way, but we booked and made plans assuming there would be functional cable and internet. I tried calling the number given but there was no answer. It wasn’t an emergency so it wasn’t something worth pursuing but it was an annoyance.

Enjoyed being right on the river. Cabin clean, comfortable bed, nice swing on screened porch. Staff helpful and handled promptly whenever I had a concern. Like where the resort is close to Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park.

We loved staying here and will definitely book again! The location on the river is perfect. The cabin's screened-in porch was a very pleasant place to relax and socialize. This will be top of our list when we come back to Estes.
