This place will exceed your expectations! we will be back.
My family and I enjoyed our stay! Very thankful that the family allows the opportunity to stay in such a beautiful place. Very clean, so much space for a quiet and peaceful Christmas, which is exactly what we wanted. I will definitely book with Ponderosa again. They are very clear with instructions and their response time is quick!
Great, authentic log cabin. Will stay again.

Thank you for choosing our property. I'm happy to see it meet your needs. Please keep us in mind for your future trips to Estes Park.
Great place to say. Location close to town. The master bedroom heat was not functioning and we contacted Seth at Ponderosa Realty. That same day he came out with 2 space heaters since heat technician was unavailable. Was an excellent source of heat for the room and we stayed warm. Big shout out to Seth.
Almost everything was great!
Great home and location was close to Town. Elk herd every day in yard was awesome, especially when the babies were running and playing. Ponderosa Realty made check in and out super easy. House is absolutely amazing!
Good Communicators
Beautiful cabin! It was everything we expected. Could not have asked for anything more!
Fantastic house to rent. Especially enjoyed the huge elk laying around in the backyard out the windows.
House was very nice and adequately furnished. Only lacked a keurig lol
This is an incredible log cabin getaway tucked into a secluded little area right in the heart of Estes Park! The indoor and outdoor fireplaces, floor to ceiling windows, huge living room and kitchen were a hit, as was the creek where the kids played on the rocks while adults sat and visited. Truly beautiful and a great value.
What a beautiful and peaceful property. My family of seven stayed for four nights and there was plenty of comfy space for everybody. Sitting down by the river in the morning having our coffee was such a treat. We also had a small herd of female elk for the first day that just hung out in the yard with us.We would definitely stay here again.
This property was above and beyond our expectations. It was the perfect place to call home during our short stay in Estes Park. The the home is gorgeous and was perfect for our family gathering. The boys had success fishing in the river during day and we all enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub gazing at the stars at night. We hope to be back in the not so distant future!
We traveled from New Jersey no knowing what to expect. The people at Ponderosa Realty were very helpful in getting us to our destination as well as giving us some recommendations regarding eateries and attractions. It was an easy process from check-in through check-out.
Beautiful location and was next to the river! So pretty
Great Space would Highly recommend!
Great place!
Quiet, private, comfortable, spacious great room. Enjoyed our stay.
Everything was perfect!!
The cabin is as beautiful as the pictures-if not better and it has everything you need plus it is close to town
Great location --we were glad to see elk on the land. Bright indoors, hot tub was very nice.
Missing some basic kitchen supplies such as foil, saran wrap, sugar, etc.
Overall a nice place to stay.
This house is even more amazing than it looks... stunning place!! Highly recommended!
