`... Every morning, without missing a day, there was a group of elk outside just hanging out, the kids were just amazed.` - Andres
`... The home was exactly as advertised, but it also had a portable crib and high chair for our littles. This was an unexpected plus for sure.` - Meredith
`... My family and I, after a personal loss, found solace in Kimberly`s place. It was in a beautiful neighborhood, extremely well cleaned, and featured a gorgeous deck where we were able to chat and reflect surrounded by the mountains we love.` - Ben
It`s an updated 3BR on the southeast edge of the Estes Valley, with commanding views of Kruger Rock and Twin Sisters Peak. Both turn purple and orange during summer sunsets -- an amazing sight!
More than 100 horses roam freely in the fields of nearby Cheley Camp (walkable via a paved multi-use path), and a few blocks away is a dirt road leading to the incredible Forest Service trail network off of USFS 119. Up there you`ll find hiking trails leading into Homestead Meadows, with old historic and deserted cabins dating back a hundred years.
Our home is super close to thousands of square miles of open space and public land, so all the wildlife will likely be roaming around when you`re on the deck enjoying the views.
Our home features an upper floor with three bedrooms and two bathrooms; a main floor with an open kitchen/dining/living area; and a bottom floor with a laundry room and media room.
Our speedy 1gb fiber is the fastest available Internet in Estes.

The Ramshorn Retreat is located in a quiet residential neighborhood on the southeast section of the Estes Valley off Fish Creek Road, beneath Kruger Rock, Twin Sisters and Lily Mountain. There are views for days. Our home is 8 minutes to the heart of downtown, 6 minutes to great restaurants and breweries, and just over 10 minutes to the National Park entrance. We love our location because we can take quiet backroads to the National Park and avoid crowds and traffic, plus we can quickly get to off-the-beaten-path hiking areas like the trail network on Forest Road 119, Homer Rouse, and Lily Mountain. There is a multi-use path accessible a block away for safe walks with the family.
The summer traffic in Estes Park can be a mess, particularly in the downtown area. We love being away from the hustle and bustle in our neighborhood. From our home you can get to all the major attractions of Estes Park quickly, on backroads that are rarely traveled during the high tourism season. There is a great free shuttle system in Estes that will take you pretty much anywhere, from the Park Entrance to various restaurants and breweries, and even to the YMCA -- its closest stop is a few miles away, near the Golf Course. It runs from early July to mid-September. Plan to bring a car for your vacation -- our home has parking for three vehicles.
NEIGHBORS & NOISE
It is super important for us to maintain a peaceful environment for our neighbors. We request that guests refrain from hosting parties or playing loud music that may disrupt their tranquility. To ensure this, we use Minut Noise Monitors that detect sound levels and alert us of any disturbances.
SMOKING AND FIRES
To minimize the risk of fire, smoking is prohibited on the premises. Outdoor wood fire pits are also illegal in Estes Park`s vacation homes.
AIR CONDITIONER
Our property does not feature air conditioning, but the refreshing mountain breeze that flows from the peaks cools down the place quickly in the evenings when the windows are open.
BEARS
To ensure guest safety, we urge visitors not to leave any food items in their cars as bears frequent the area and may attempt to break in.
MINUT
To maintain guest safety and protect the property, we utilize Minut noise monitors that track decibel levels, temperature, and humidity. These devices are not recording audio and are located on the kitchen ceiling to detect any party gatherings and prevent noise complaints from neighbors.
