This 5 bedroom, 4 full bath home is located in a beautiful, mountainous neighborhood at the base of what is known as 'Old Man Mountain'. This home is less than a mile to the west end of downtown Estes Park where you can pick up the river walk trail that goes through downtown all the way to and around Lake Estes. It is also close to the north entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park. The interior of the house has been completely remodeled. It has all-new cabinets with stone tile countertops, all new appliances, all new tile, fixtures, and faucets in the bathrooms, and new bedroom carpet, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, dining room, and living room. Besides being very tasteful, with all of the amenities you will need, this home has a warm, cozy, mountain feel to it.

The deck on the back side of the house is surrounded by rocks and trees and invites a peaceful, quiet outdoor living experience. Old Man Mountain is a popular hiking area close to downtown Estes Park. It is one of the oldest and largest sacred Native American sites in Colorado. The area has many sloping rock walls and ledges, which offer access to the top. The view of the Estes Valley is well worth the hike/climb.You are bound to see wildlife while in Estes, and there's a great chance you will see elk, deer and even wild turkey around the property.

Post Labor Day Stay for Three Nights
Very nice property, it was clean, close to town and RMNP. We had a party of five and it accommodated us with room to spare. We enjoyed the hot tub and the ping pong table. The house was well stocked with essentials, we only had to buy some groceries for the stay.

We have stayed at this property several times and love it more each time. It is comfortably, the company is very easy to work with and answers questions quickly. It is close to town and close to the park entrance. We will definitely stay here again.

Great location and property
3 generations of our family stayed at Bear House over a long weekend for my son's wedding. It was the perfect place for us - lots of room, great location, walkable to town. We really enjoyed it.

Great place to stay while you visit the park.
The owner's did an excellent job renovating the home for a rental. My only criticism is the furniture on the main floor is worn out, the seats need to be replaced.

Suggestions?
Too many steps for elderly and a stepstool was needed to get in and out of the downstairs king size bed. More bedding was needed in the downstairs bedrooms. It too cool for the amount of bedding on the beds and towels could be More plush

Wedding in Estes
Nice place. There were 4 couples coming to a wedding and 4 babies! Lots of space to spread out and have places to hang while babies slept in others areas. I little trouble with the code to get in, but that was taken care of immediately with a quick phone call. We loved gathering on the spacious deck for meal and morning coffee. Would stay here again.

Perfect for a multi family vacation
Great location, activities for teenagers to do, multiple living rooms - perfect for our family. Very clean with plenty of towels. The kitchen was nice with 2 nice sets of dishes, plenty of glasses & silverware organized well. Cookware could use an update making it functional for large groups (only had 2 small skillets). Cabinets were full of other items that were outdated or very heavy, needing to be reorganized and updated.

Family adventure near RMNP
Bear House was the perfect place to host our kids and two grandkids for a long weekend in Estes Park. The kitchen was nicely equipped for family meals and the house provided enough room to spread out when anyone needed a break. Bear house is very close to one of the entrances to the park so made it easy. Being outside of the busy downtown area was a plus.

Enjoyed our stay
Our family of 9 really enjoyed our stay. Had everything we needed. Clean, fully-stocked, and close to town. House has two living rooms and sitting area between dining room and kitchen so many areas for our family to spread out, but also the rooms are large enough for us to all be together. There was an issue with trash pickup (assumed it was because of the holiday), but the owner was responsive to my text. The lower level is definitely cooler than the upper level, but there are plenty of fans throughout the house, and we were always comfortable. The deck was great, hot tub was nice, and the kids really enjoyed playing on the rocks. We felt the rocks added privacy to the house and especially the deck area. We would definitely stay there again.

A great get-away!
We had a wonderful stay at Bear House! My brother, his wife and two daughters (17, 19) flew here from South Carolina. My family included me, my husband and our two sons (25, 28). The photos were pretty accurate although the bedrooms and common areas were a bit smaller than expected since photos are wide-angle. The kitchen was well stocked and we prepared a lot of meals. The lower level of the home was about 20 degrees colder in the lower level. It’s very close to downtown Estes. From our experience there, it would be an ideal space for up to 6 adults. I would absolutely stay at Bear House again! I’d love to spend time there in the summer or fall!

Wedding Gathering
My extended family and I stayed at the Bear House for my niece's wedding. We were thoroughly impressed with the property. It is a very clean, spacious, and centrally located home. It's less than 5 minutes from "downtown" Estes Park and 10 -15 minutes from RMNP. The game room and hot tub were added bonuses. I highly recommend this vacation rental!

The wonder of Nature’s own
We enjoyed our time here very much. Just one thing was not satisfactory - the jacuzzi, the water was too low and it was not clean. One of the hinge bars to the lid was broken.

Great place!!!
A girls' trip morphed into just my husband and me staying at the Bear House for a week. While way too much house for just two people, it was absolutely wonderful. Comfortable bed, nice linens, well stocked kitchen, TVs everything, outdoor seating areas, nice living room furniture and lots of other thoughtful amenities. House is about 3/4 mile from west end of town near the water wheel via the river trail and less than 1/4 mile to the shuttle stop. Both of the main RMNP entrances are close and you have easy access to Wonderview to avoid downtown traffic. House is as advertised and we would highly recommend!

Wedding Stay in Estes
We were so pleased with our VRBO! We We’re preparing for a wedding and had multiple family members, including an infant, and the house has everything we needed! There was room to spread out, a safety gate and high chair, plenty of amenities and very easy to get into! We even had excitement with a bear walking down the street as well as elk and turkey. We felt like we were truly in the wild in our own little space.
