This was our first time at this property. I was pleasantly surprised. It was so cozy and clean. I love the hot tub inside the cabin. The room was immaculately clean. They even had coffee and hot chocolate. The fire place was a nice touch as well. We were so close to everything. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay here again as well as recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the Estes Park area.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this cozy cabin, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! Even days before we were scheduled to arrive, communication with Pam was excellent. She was extremely helpful and accommodating. The cabin itself was impeccable and incredibly comfortable, providing a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. One of the highlights of my stay was the hot tub right next to the bed, which was the ideal spot to unwind and relax.. The addition of a charming chimney in the room added an extra touch of coziness, making the atmosphere truly magical. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with outstanding service, this cabin is the place to be! I would give it a 10 out of 5 stars if I could! Thank you, Mountain Shadows Resort, for an unforgettable experience! We will definitely be back soon and plan to make this an annual retreat.
