Old and Tired
Just about the worst vacation on record. We chose this home because it had AC and in July we thought we would be more comfortable. As soon as we arrived we received a text that the AC and Heat were not working and they had scheduled a repair on the next day. Well the next day we were invaded by the repair team. Unfortunately they had the wrong part, so no heat and no AC for the entire stay. The Unit had been down for some time and they failed to inform us that it was out of service. They intentionally mislead us and should have informed us so we could make other accommodations. That being said that was just the beginning The morning after our arrival we went to make coffee in the kitchen and were overwhelmed by the smell of rotting mice. We could barely stand being in the kitchen. We notified the management company and soon a guy arrived warring rubber gloves and holding some tongs. Under the kitchen sink were mouse droppings and old filthy mouse traps apparently this has been a problem for a long while. The kitchen is old and tired, the frying pans were warped and had no lids, the potato peeler was stuck to the drawer with some unknown sticky Goo. Most of the living room furniture was at least 30-40 years old. The carpet throughout was in terrible condition and should have been replaced years ago. The view windows were filthy and had not been cleaned this year. The Washer and Dryer were at least 40 years. The garage smelled like Mold. Stay Away!!!!

Scenic and comfortable!
What a view!! This place was honestly amazing. The location was about 10 minutes from downtown Estes and the property itself made you feel many miles away from anywhere. The view from the living room is unbeatable. The mountains are showcased through floor to ceiling windows. Everything about this was great and I'd definitely recommend this and stay again!

Great location and view
The location of the home provided some seclusion but was still close enough to town/park for quick trips if needed. The view of the mountains from the living room was amazing. We saw elk and deer on/near the property on a daily basis and had a visit from a fox on the patio one evening. As far as the home, it had some things that were outdated (70’s feel when we first walked in) but the location and views more than made up for it.

Mixed Emotions
I gave this an overall 4 because of the views and proximity to Estes Park and RMNP. It was a comfortable place, and in a wonderful location! The first impression was lacking, however. It is outdated and needs updating. I will say it grew on me the longer I stayed. For the fee charged, based on other VRBOs I’ve rented, I was hoping for nicer amenities and updates. Also, we are from the south, so with the temps being in the 40s overnight (like our winter), extra blankets would have been nice. Again, overall worth the stay for the spectacular views, proximity, and easy access (no crazy steep mountain switchbacks), just a bit overpriced.

Great Stay!
We loved staying at Stutzhaven! The views from the living room were incredible and the highlight of the stay. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable to stay in. The cleaning company didn’t do a great job though - we found food (dried sausage) and misc objects under the couch. The living room carpet didn’t seem like it was cleaned well either (hair everywhere…not just a strand or two). Otherwise, we rate the house as 9/10!

Perfect Mountain Getaway
This property is fantastic! The home is just outside of Estes, so it feels very private. It’s so, so cozy and made for a great spot to have Thanksgiving with family. The house was equipped with everything we needed to cook the whole dinner, too, which was a complete surprise. We would absolutely return again in summer or winter. Thanks for sharing this great house with us!

Amazing views, super clean
Truly exceptional views. The online photos don’t even do it justice. The location was exactly what we wanted in that it felt secluded and private, yet downtown Estes Park was just a 5 minute drive away. The property was remarkably clean, probably the cleanest vacation home we have ever stayed in. It was well-supplied with plenty of towels, bedding, toilet paper, etc. The only criticism was that the mattress in the master bedroom was a bit uncomfortable with divots on either side, but this was a relatively minor issue. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. Highly recommend.
