Serene, Private Retreat w/Hot Tub, 1 mile from Rocky Mountain National Park

Welcome to the Wild Turkey Retreat, a charmingly updated cabin exuding warmth and tranquility.

This cozy haven features a covered front porch, a secluded hot tub with an outdoor shower, and a spacious back deck overlooking a private yard frequented by wild turkeys, deer, elk, and a variety of birds and wildlife. Complimentary Wi-Fi, a smart TV, and modernized kitchen and bathrooms are among the amenities offered.

The cabin comprises three bedrooms, one downstairs and two upstairs, with a full bathroom adjacent to the master bedroom downstairs. Upstairs, you'll find a half-bath along with a separate walk-in shower and sink. Additionally, there's a cozy sitting room adorned with games and books. A new front-load washer and dryer are conveniently located downstairs.

The fully equipped kitchen adjoins a dining room with a generously sized table for family meals, games, and gatherings. The downstairs living room features a large sectional couch, a flat screen smart TV, and a wood-burning fireplace. Outside, enjoy a gas fire pit, a propane grill, and a cornhole game in the backyard.

Many of the art pieces and furnishings within the home are crafted by the owner, adding a touch of uniqueness to the beautifully decorated space. Nestled in a serene area within walking distance to restaurants and close to downtown and Rocky Mountain National Park, this retreat offers easy access to a plethora of family-friendly activities, including fly fishing, mini-golf, go-carts, local breweries, mountain coasters, and sky parks.

Check-in is available after 4:00 p.m., and check-out is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. For alternative check-in/check-out times, please reach out in advance.

You will have access to the entire house with the exception of the basement. The owner may be staying in the basement apartment that has a separate entrance. Her parking is in the front of the house and guest parking is in the back. She will not access the backyard and will always respect your privacy. She's available if you need anything!

Great house with everything you need to relax and enjoy Estes Park. Close to town fully stocked and very comfy house. Great views of the mountains and lots of birds and other wildlife around the house. Very close to town with private parking and a nice set up in the backyard.

This property is located 5 minutes from the entrance to RMNP, and just blocks away from a great swimming hole. The house was in great shape and Susan was so responsive. A grocery store is less than a mile away, as are plenty of dining options. We would definitely stay here again.

Unique property in a great location
The Wild Turkey Resort was a very convenient place to stay when visiting Rocky Mountain National Park. After a day of hiking in the park it was a comfortable place to come home to with lots of elk, birds, and a turkey or two in the yard. Would definitely stay there again.

Nice Cabin for Last Minute Getaway
I was able to book this cabin on Monday for our stay beginning on Thursday. Everything was spotless and ready for us to check in. I was slightly disappointed to see that the "fireplace" shown on the listing was actually a wood stove insert (we really enjoy the ambiance of a real fireplace), but Susan, the owner, promised the insert would provide plenty of heat, and she was 100% correct. The hot tub was an added bonus for us, and has a very private feel. The cabin is in a neighborhood, but the lots are large and there is plenty of outdoor space. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying there again. We did see the owner's car all 3 nights, but as promised, we never saw her, although we would've been happy to meet her. I'd like to add that the access code will have you humming a song from the '60s that only us baby boomers would recognize!

Lovely Cabin!
The cabin is nice and the best appointed VRBO that I have ever stayed at. The kitchen is extremely well stocked -- the host has paid attention to the details that make a visit so enjoyable. The location is a bit off the beaten path, away from the touristy crowds but still provides great access to restaurants and outdoor activities. We will book this one again!

Winter in Estes Park
Everyone enjoyed their stay at the property. The house was clean, spacious and the kitchen was well stocked with supplies. Each bedroom had plenty of room and all the beds were comfy. The hot tube was a big plus! The location of the property was great. Easy to downtown and to Rocky Mountain. I would highly recommend staying at this beautiful mountain home.

Great choice
Everything was exactly as advertised and was surprised at the attention to and quality of furniture, electronics, fridge etc. areas where rental properties generally cut corners. The host Susan was extremely helpful and responsive with us through the entire process. Will try to stay again if ever need a place near Estes.

We really enjoyed our time at this property in Estes. It’s only a few minutes from town, really close to RMNP, and tucked away in a small neighborhood with the feel of privacy. We enjoyed the hot tub every night as well. Thanks for a great stay and I’d highly recommend it!

Personal wildlife refuge minutes from RMNP
Wonderful home only minutes from entrance to RMNP. We were greeted our first morning by a massive herd of elk walking through the front yard. We also had daily visits from multiple birds, deer, bunnies, chipmunks and wild turkeys. The hot tub was very welcome after a day of hiking and the cabin had everything needed for cooking inside or out with the grill. If going out to eat, try The Rock Inn- great food, service and live music. Highly recommend this cabin. Would stay again.

Hiking the Rockies
Very lovely, clean home which was close to so many of the trails we hiked. We loved the location and coming back to a warm cozy home. My kids and grandkids even enjoyed the hot tub after some of our more strenuous hikes. My family loved watching the mule deer and calves in the backyard, and my daughter and I were fortunate enough to see a bear out the window just about 10 yards from the house. Great place to stay!
