Little Mooser was the perfect getaway for my husband and I. The cabin was so cute and secluded. I also loved the proximity to Rocky Mountain National Park.
Very nicely furnished cabin. Kitchen is small but very functional. Enjoyed the hummingbirds on back porch and wildlife roaming around (turkey and deer). Would prefer a lockbox on-site as getting from one side of town to other to pick up and drop off keys was inconvenient. Would definitely recommend and would stay again!!

Had a lovely stay at the Little Mooser! Very quiet, peaceful, clean, and cozy! Private, yet close to RMNP and downtown Estes Park. I would love to come back and would recommend to anyone looking for a great getaway!
Quiet, semi-secluded area. Excellent location if looking to explore in Rocky Mountain National Park. Literally 5 minutes from the Beaver Meadows entrance.
Quaint, rustic cottage with a great location that could use a little tender loving care. The bathroom is quite small and is in an unfinished condition, meaning that someone had possibly started remodeling it but never quite finished the remodel details.The best space was the small outdoor deck, best for morning coffee!
Adorable little cabin. Roomier than I thought it’d be. Only complaint was that the bed was pretty hard for us, but the cabin was in a nice, quiet, & easily accessible area.

Had to clean and repair several things just to make stay tolerable
Somehow, the management company didn’t get our Vrbo reservation. Sadly, we were only able to stay in this cute little cabin for two nights. They did put us up in another nice place for our other two nights.
We enjoyed our stay here and it is in a very quiet wooded neighborhood. Awesome views? We saw elk and wild turkey on our way in and heard bull Elk bugling at night from our patio. The king bed was very comfortable and the bedroom is a good size. Everything else about the “Little Mooser” is antique and little, starting with the front steps which are extremely shallow. The kitchen table appears to be for children and the kitchen bar is very narrow so no place to eat comfortably. We cooked most meals in and the kitchen is very challenging, especially with the placement of the sink. There are no cooking utensils for the barbecue grill, only plastic. You can actually wash your face while sitting on the toilet and in my opinion, the water does not get warm enough to be sanitary. The windows slide open and are very hard to operate. We departed a day early and left a list of items that need to be repaired and at the top of the list was a smoke detector without batteries. This could be a much more comfortable place to stay if they would make a few modern updates. Please, place a lock box on the door so guests don’t have to drive to the office to get the key, which wasn’t a smooth process for us. We are a retired couple of average height and weight and would not stay again.
Rental was easy and even had good communication with property management.
Nice appliances and supplies except it could use a 12” skillet. I luckily took my own. Nice comphy king size bed. Heaters were very sufficient.
We felt very at home here!
This is an adorable cabin! Perfect size, clean and very cozy! Saw wildlife right our the front door almost every evening we were there. I also really liked the location of the property. Thank you
We loved the Little Mooser cabin. It was just as advertised. The management team was great, very professional and organized. After a long day in the park, it was so pleasant to sit out on the side porch, listen to the nearby river, watch the sunset, and now and then get a close visit from a curious hummingbird.
Would DEFINITELY go back, this little spot is a gem.
Thanks folks, for helping us have a great Rocky Mountain National Park vacation!
Really enjoyed our stay here. Just a short hop to Rocky Mountain National Park where we spent two days touring. Close enough to busy Estes Park (try the brewery!) yet a peaceful quiet world away at the cabin. The small porch was a great place to unwind.
The cabin is tiny but comfortable. We were able to cook meals in the kitchen. No AC but it did cool down overnight.
Would recommend and rent here again.
