Overall we had a good experience staying in the Marmot cabin. Yes, it is small, and my wife and I had to sometimes dance around each other but it was fully expected from the description. It is a very cute cabin, perfect for solo trips or couples. It is a very short walk to the river and we could here the river from our cabin. Estes Park is just a short 3 minute drive and either of the RMNP entrances are 15 minutes away. I would say the only negative thing (although some people may love this) is virtually no cell reception and WIFI on site was almost non-existent from the cabin.

The stay was great. There was no hot water in our shower and the toilet in our cabin was very touchy and would often run continuously after flushing. A giggle of the handle cured the problem but if guests were not cognizant of the issue it would waste a good amount of water

Cabin stay

Beautiful scenery and nice location. Cabin itself needs major upgrades. Couldn’t hold the temperature. Extremely cold then, the heat would get too warm. Windows very thin. Wore our jackets pretty much the whole time. No hot pads for stove or enough kitchen towels. No extra blankets in bedroom. Very expensive for what you get. Driveways not cleared. Very slick.

We just had a quick 2 night stay for our anniversary. The entire property was inviting and beautiful. We stayed in The Lodgepole suite. The room was comfy, cozy and so very cute. The view off the deck was perfect for your morning cup of coffee. If the chance arises to stay again, we absolutely would stay.

My husband & i stayed in the Aspen Glen 2 cabin for 4 nights and we loved it. Just bring your food if you like we cooked out on the grill or drive to town with plenty of good restaurants is just minutes down the road in Estes. The grounds are beautiful with the stream running behind. We will definitely stay again!
