"This was a great property just west of the main part of Estes Park and very close to one of the entrances to RMNP. Fall River flows directly in front of the property. The property is very quiet and because it’s not a large property, it wasn’t hard to find a parking spot. The unit itself was clean and quiet. The kitchen was well stocked with the basics to do any cooking. I would stay here again."

Top Gem Lake Hotel Reviews

Estes Mountain Inn

10/10 Excellent

"I wanted to book the hotel eates but my wife picked this one due to indoor pool and giant hot tub. We were glad we stayed here. We paid extra for the room with a wood fireplace and the first couple of night we couldn't get the fire started. The guy at the front desk I believe his name was Kiran came and helped us. Extra friendly and very nice guy and made our experience tip notch. Everyone else from the front desk are nice and friendly. We used the grill (brand new) almost every night from steak to salmon etc. The hotel also have a Sauna 😋 . Over all, much better than I expected and Kiran is top notch"
