Cool River#6159 Cabin sets only feet from the Big Thompson River

Cozy cabin in Estes Park - Cool River sits on the Big Thompson River on the edge of Estes Park. Walk to town, shops and restaurants or sit on the deck and enjoy the river view. (this is not a secluded location) This 2 bedroom one bathroom cabin has all the comforts of home with a cozy cabin décor. Relax on one of the many decks and enjoy the cool mornings or the evening breeze.

The living room has a gas fireplace to take the chill off on those cool evenings. The large fully stocked kitchen gives you lots of room to fix your meals unlike your average mountain cabin. (no dishwasher). Gas grill off the back deck and outdoor dining space.

Short walking distance to 2 brewery's, 4 restaurants, family entertainment park and an outdoor air adventure park. All with a river just a few steps from the back deck. There are several cabins together on the edge of a small industrial complex. (storage units mixed with businesses) giving this a more private setting. The cabin does not have A/C, we have natural mountain breezes just like the Stanley Hotel. There is the potential for road noise at times.

This home is fully stocked with bed linens, towels, extra blankets, soaps, shampoo and a good start up supply of paper products.. The kitchen has pots, pans and dishes plus silverware. A standard coffee maker, toaster, blender, crock pot too. A washer and dryer with laundry pods to use.

This is the ideal location for a base camp for those who want to explore Rocky Mountain National Park and Northern Colorado.

This home is managed by Rocky Mountains Property Services, a family owned and operated business local to Estes Park.

Rocky Mountain National Park will implement another pilot temporary timed entry permit reservation system from May 23 through October 20, 2025. If you plan on visiting Rocky Mountain National Park during your stay please visit their website for details about reservations.

A wonderful cabin that's close to town
We stayed for four nights as part of our honeymoon....the cabin had all that we needed and it was very clean and well kept. We enjoyed being close to town (although the Estes Park traffic and construction was a hot mess). We would definitely stay again!

Overall we had a nice stay! The cabin was nice & cozy. It’s very close to the downtown & fun city for kids. The only con was the location can be a lil noisy.

Cozy cabin, great location!
We had a great stay over the thanksgiving holiday. Very easy check in, everything we needed in the kitchen to cook and bathroom had everything we need as well. Perfect location to get to downtown and RMNP! We got to see deer and elk wander the neighborhood!

Fantastic location
Away from street traffic, walk out back door to Big Thompson and fishing. May not be a great location for little kids if parents dont keep an eye on them. Great communication with property managers We loved it.

Relaxing patio by the river
Cute and cozy cabin by the river. My husband and I really enjoyed relaxing on the back patio. Property is close to downtown Estes Park, but feels a little more remote. Two bedroom, one bath.

Perfect oasis in Estes Park
Had an absolute wonderful time! The place was immaculate, kitchen was fully equipped, quiet and perfect place to spend 3 days in Estes! Loved sitting on the deck listening to the river with our morning coffee and our glass of wine in the evening! Would definitely come back!

Great time and place
Loved it. Weather wasn’t the greatest as we got hit with a good snow storm and ended up losing power (no fault of the owner, all of Estes lost power). Beds were comfortable, the fireplace was great and we used the heck out of it and the location was super close to everything we needed

Outstanding, sound of the water was amazing and the fact that a baby elk was born within 100 yards of the cabin just added to the stay.

Even better than expected
Our family of three enjoyed three nights at the cabin, which was immaculate at check in and more spacious than we expected. The cabin was equipped with everything we could have needed, and the back deck on the river was a perfect place to unwind after long days of hiking in RMNP. Wish our visit was longer, and we would definitely stay here again in the future.
