Mountain Home- Spectacular Views of Long's Peak- 10 minutes to town-3 full bath

Best views around! Welcome to the Peppermint Hut. This 3 bedroom, 3 full and 2 half bathroom private home is truly a relaxing retreat in the Rockies. Conveniently located with just a 10 minute drive to town, you'll find yourself in awe of the amazing views everywhere you look including Long's Peak.
Enjoy a dinner at the beautiful log dining table while you take in the beauty of the Rockies through the large windows surrounding the dining area. Living room boasts a large sectional sofa situated in front of the stone (gas) fireplace and flatscreen TV. Plenty of room on the sofa for everyone to gather after a day of adventures.
Gather around the large granite kitchen island for breakfast or afternoon coffee. Stainless steel appliances, gas stove, dishwasher and fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to whip up your favorite meal. Main floor laundry room with washer, dryer and utility sink is conveniently located to wash up after a long day's hike. Pack light- we provide the soap! Half bath located on the main floor as well for quick wash ups.
Need to do some work while you're away? You'll love the mountain view from the work desk just off the kitchen.
Relax on the back deck morning, noon or night to catch the most spectacular views and tranquil setting. You will love being surrounded by quiet nature! Ready to hike? Just walk out the front door and enjoy nature at your fingertips. Want to hike in the park? Lumpy Ridge Trailhead is an 8 minute drive away or Rocky Mountain National Park entrance is about 20 min drive. If you're a grill master, create your best bbq on the gas grill on the lower patio.
When you are ready to retreat for the evening head upstairs and pick one of the 3 inviting bedrooms.
The master suite has a comfy king bed, flat screen TV, attached full bathroom and outstanding views of Long's Peak that will be the first thing you see when you awake. Plenty of room in the walk-in closet for your things. You can really take in the beauty of the Rockies by stepping out of the glass, double doors from the master bedroom onto the attached balcony. Balcony views are fantastic! Blinds on the windows for privacy. It's easy to get ready in the morning in the attached full bathroom with double sinks and a large walk in shower. Beautiful tile and light, airy decor!
Down the hall you'll find the cozy queen bedroom with a comfy bed and attached half bath (toilet, sink, closet). Perfect for space for anyone in your group! Blinds on windows for privacy and light blocking.
The third bedroom offers two twin beds in a darling and airy setting. Large closet for your travel items. Blinds on windows for privacy and light blocking.
Upstairs you'll also find a guest full bathroom with not only a shower but a tub to soak in and relax. The home does NOT have a hot tub. Bonus- basement finished in summer2024. Basement has 2nd tv/living room including tv and ping pong table as well as gorgeous full bathroom with walk in shower.
This home is truly a special place to make your most memorable vacation. We invite you to be our guests!

Special notes:
- This home does not have AC but has fans in all rooms. Most homes in Estes don't have AC as it's normally not needed.

- If you plan to come in the winter or spring months a 4 wheel drive is a must. Although the drive to the Peppermint Hut is not difficult the driveway is a bit steep and with snowfall would be difficult for a non-4wheel drive to go up.

- All three bedrooms are located upstairs- please consider this if stairs are an issue for anyone in your group

- No loud parties or events. No pets.

- No smoking or vaping inside or outside-this is a wilderness area and we take fire safety very seriously

Perfect getaway

This property has it all. Only about 10 min to the downtown but still secluded enough to feel like you are truly away from the world. The views are spectacular and we saw lots of animals from the house. There were some fun toys for our kids which was so nice given we’d flown in with limited entertainment options. We would certainly stay here again and recommend it to any friends or family interested in a visit to this area.

Quiet Property With Stunning Views

Waking up to stunning views of Long’s Peak, made us never want to leave. This property had the perfect amount of privacy. When staying here, you feel as if you’re living on a ranch in the country, but downtown Estes Park is just a few minute (beautiful) drive. We spent every day in RMNP. This property served as the perfect base camp for our adventures. Highly recommend!

Perfect family getaway

The house was perfect for our family. Separate from the hustle and bustle, very quiet, but close enough to town when you wanted to visit. Everything was clean and very comfortable. We received helpful tips such as how and when to get our timed entries for the park, and how to avoid traffic around town. We definitely recommend this rental!

Beauty Overflow!

That is what my granddaughter said repeatedly while standing on the deck with the magnificent view of Long's Peak. The home was perfect for our family and the kitchen was well stocked. Leah, our host, is amazing. She responded quickly to every question we had and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The home is away from all the hustle and bustle of town, but within 10 minutes of Estes. Very easy access to the park too. We would definitely want to stay here again.

Perfect Colorado Experience

This property captured everything you expect Colorado to be. Amazing view of Colorado mountains and cozy home with all the amenities to stay comfortable. All you need are clothes and groceries. Close to everything in minutes but feels miles away from everything. We will definitely recommend and return to this property in the near future.

Breathtaking View & So Much More

We enjoyed every moment of the 3 nights we stayed at the Mountain Home Cabin. From the minute we pulled up and saw the incredible view through the windows, we knew we were staying somewhere special. Our host Leah was very good at communicating with us about all the amenities including how we could watch the Super Bowl during our stay. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space to put away our things to help us feel right at home. The kitchen is well equipped and fun to cook in with a large island people can sit at to keep the cook company and the view from the kitchen, dining, and living rooms is truly breathtaking. While having a cup of coffee while watching Long's Peak glow in the sunrise, or having a drink on the deck in the evening had us all saying we hope to stay here again someday.

Wonderful place

If you think of that one person you know who gets absolutely every little detail exactly right, and she (it would of course be a she) had her very best day, she could be the one who prepared and outfitted this amazingly beautiful home for our stay! This home is exquisite. It is sited with the most stunning view of mountains and the village of Estes Park that you can enjoy from four vantage points, upstairs master, living/dining, and two outside patios. The home is intelligently crafted, and the generous spaces provide for every possible space need. In fact, the kitchen, laundry, and bathrooms were provided with every conceivable need a traveler could have. Make a quick trip to the convenient Safeway store just minutes away for your main food items, and you’re all set. Everything else is already there for you, every imaginable detail. We absolutely adored this place. I would own it in a heartbeat if I could. Leah was very flexible, responsive, and easy to communicate with, and the ease of finding, getting into, and, sadly, leaving this lovely home was unparalleled.

Spectacular Estes Park

Where do I start? First off, the privacy and serenity of this place are unmatched. My husband and I felt like we were living on a ranch. The view of Longs Leak is breathtaking and the sunrise from the bedroom balcony is something I can’t even describe. This is my second trip to Colorado and let me say that my stay at Peppermint Hut gave whole new meaning and appreciation for the beauty that the mountains have to offer. Although it felt like we were in the mountains alone, we were within a short drive to anything downtown and either entrance to RMNP. The location couldn’t have been more convenient. The house is SPECTACULAR. So clean, so cozy, so beautiful! We loved it so well, we cancelled plans to go to Breckenridge and were lucky enough to stay longer than planned due to availability. I feel like I should comment on the no A/C. I was a tad worried since we are from Kentucky and can’t live without our A/C haha….BUT within minutes of opening a couple windows In the evening, the house feels more comfortable than if using A/C. So if this is a reservation, don’t let it be! I wish our climate allowed for this at home! Lastly, Leah was so helpful and so nice! She made some great dinner recommendations and encouraged us to explore the Stanley which we spent two evenings doing. Just can’t say enough about this experience. We are already planning our trip back!

What a view!

This was our second stay at this house and is by far our favorite vacation rental home. Each morning, we awoke before sunrise to watch the mountains light up in an orangey-pink glow. Sunset is even better with fiery oranges and reds, especially if there are a few clouds in the area. On both visits, we were fortunate enough to be visited by large bull elk, many deer, and one morning, a bobcat came to the backyard. Being just a few minutes from RMNP is an added bonus (purchase the 7-day pass, it’s only 5 more than the daily pass).The house has a great open layout, is well-equipped, and is soooo clean.
