Great getaway spot!

The house was incredible, perfect size for a weekend getaway for CSU graduation! Great space, you can hear the Thompson River flowing right in front of the house. We will definitely stay again, a little bit of a drive to Ft. Collins and very close to beautiful Estes Park, perfect location for our needs.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
Overall, we had a good stay. The rental was easy to find and check-in was easy, too. The host reached out right away to confirm we arrived and everything was good. We only stayed 2 nights, under 48 hours total. On the first night, we used the hot tub. It was very hot and relaxing! However, unfortunately only one of the seats had working jets. The second night, we wanted to use the gas grill, but all 5 of the propane tanks in the garage were empty. We checked the propane tank on the fire pit, and it was empty too. So, we pivoted and cooked our dinner on the stove. Had the hot tub jets all worked and propane been available to grill and to use the fire pit, this would be five stars. We still enjoyed a relaxing weekend staycation.

Very nice, clean, quiet, and cozy cabin getaway. Hot tub, deck, and fire pit were very nice amenities, as well as the inside fireplace. Host very responsive and easy to get ahold of. Less than 30min away from Estes and Rocky Mountain National Park. Enjoyed our stay, 2 adults, and 4 kiddos. 2 kids shared a bed, 1 used the air mattress provided and our infant used the pack and play.

Mountain Relaxation

Great place for a cozy and relaxing getaway for my spouse and I. Close to Estes Park for day trips and great for morning and evening R&R. Can hear the river stream while sitting on the porch by the table fireplace and in the jacuzzi. Enjoyed this stay very much and would come back.

Great Location

We had a nice stay at this cabin! The location is perfect, nestled between Loveland and Estes Park, making it easy to explore both areas. The cabin itself is peaceful and serene, with the soothing sound of a stream nearby that added to the overall tranquility. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a cozy and quiet escape.

Updated and very clean cabin for a long weekend!

We really enjoyed our long weekend at Big Thompson Cabin. It was clean, updated, and very cozy. Halfway up the canyon, which makes it easy to get up to Estes (but not pay Estes prices), while also being about to get to Loveland relatively quickly. Would definitely stay here again! 5 stars!
