"Cute little place. I didn’t realize places in Colorado didn’t have AC so that was a little bit to get used to and it was definitely hot upstairs. She did offer extra fans but if it’s hot be prepared for that. The spiral staircase was a little difficult to get suitcases upstairs. House was stocked very well. Good location. We seen deer in the backyard."

Rivendell Log Cabin - walk into RMNP! Continental Divide Views! Large Hot Tub!

10/10 Excellent
"I don’t think we could have found a better property for our family of 10 ages 6-73. Easily could have fit another family or 2. Very well stocked with things to occupy the kids, the hot tub was in excellent condition, and the layout of the home itself had so many different areas for the families to have their own space. Basement is like its own 2 bed/bath apartment with its own mini kitchen. Upper loft did get warm during this mid-August heat wave but there were at least 15 fans placed throughout to help draw in the cool air at night. Spotted plenty of mule deer roaming the property and the humming birds were around constantly. Beautiful views in all directions."

"Historic Mountainside Cabin At Braeside"  Pet friendly.

"Historic Mountainside Cabin At Braeside" Pet friendly.

8/10 Good
"The location of this cabin is fantastic for visiting Rocky Mountain National Park—less than a 10-minute drive away. It is wonderfully peaceful and private, away from the crowds of Estes Park while still being very convenient, with a lovely supermarket only five minutes away. Communication with the property manager was seamless, with replies usually received within minutes.The cabin has lots of historic character, and we especially enjoyed sitting on the porch in the evenings. We knew it was a small, older cabin when booking, but it did feel a bit more compact in person. This was manageable for us, although for a longer stay some guests may find the space a little restrictive.We appreciated the rustic charm, but felt a few thoughtful updates would make it more comfortable, particularly for the price. There is no air conditioning, which was fine for us, although some windows were difficult to open and close. The cabin is also quite dark inside, so a little additional or brighter lighting would help. The bathroom is functional, although the position of the tap makes the sink slightly awkward to use, and the charming porch chairs were not especially comfortable for longer periods.These points did not stop us from having a lovely stay. The cabin’s privacy, peaceful setting and proximity to the park are its greatest strengths, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there."
