Glen Haven Mod on the River 23-Zone3419
Welcome to Your Mountain Retreat: A Mid-Century Gem in Glen Haven Built in 1959 (Recently Renovated and Upgraded)
Step into a world where timeless design meets the rugged beauty of the Rockies. This mid-century cabin, lovingly restored, beckons you with its warm embrace. Let’s explore what makes this retreat truly special:
Natural Elegance: The cabin’s mid-century aesthetic celebrates simplicity and harmony. Natural wood, vaulted ceilings, and abundant windows blur the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Breathe in the crisp mountain air as you sip your morning coffee by the window.
Cozy Gatherings: The open floor plan invites connection. Imagine evenings spent in the living room, gathered around the large stone gas fireplace. Laughter echoes off the wooden beams as stories unfold.
Modern Comforts: The kitchen, sleek and functional, awaits your culinary adventures. Two bedrooms provide peaceful slumber, while two bathrooms ensure convenience for all. And don’t miss the family room with its clever wall bed—perfect for accommodating up to six guests.
Mountain Vistas: Every room boasts expansive windows framing views of the majestic Rockies. Step out onto one of the two decks, where you can soak in the sun, breathe in the pine-scented air, and watch the seasons change.
Nature’s Symphony: The 2-acre lot, dotted with historic structures, is cradled by mountain streams on both sides. Imagine the soothing sound of water as you unwind in your private oasis.
Local Delights: Just a stone’s throw away, the Glen Haven General Store awaits. Explore regional crafts, and don’t miss their famous cinnamon rolls—they’re a slice of heaven. For dinner, the Glen Haven Inn offers fine dining with a rustic twist.
Gateway to Adventure: Need a dose of wilderness? Crozier Mountain Trail starts right across the road. And when you’re ready to explore further, Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park are a scenic 10-minute drive away.
This isn’t just a cabin; it’s an invitation to slow down, savor life’s simple pleasures, and create lasting memories. Come, make yourself at home in Glen Haven. Recently added Hot Tub to enjoy starting in July 2025.

Cozy village, lovely property
I love mid-century homes and was delighted to find one for a vacation near Estes Park. Glen Haven is a tiny village 15-20 minutes to Estes proper, so plan accordingly. The Country Store has limited grocery items (i would suggest they ditch most of the touristy keepsakes and stock more food!), but the World Famous Cinnamon rolls are as good as advertised! And it is mere steps away from the VRBO property. The house is situated between a fork in the Big Thompson and we spend most time outside listening to the river. So relaxing and peaceful. If you go, you MUST make sure the hummingbird feeder is full! We watched them for hours and they would fly around my head while I sat on the deck. Delightful. The kitchen is efficient and had everything we needed with the exception of a garbage disposal. Also, it would’ve been nice to have cooking oil, flour and sugar. The only issue we had during our week’s stay was the well pump (we assume) making noise — enough to wake us up at 3 in the morning TWICE. It’s an old house (1959) and stuff happens. We alerted the property manager and I am betting it will be fixed before the next guest arrives. If you take your dog on vacation, there is a FENCE…rare in a mountain vacation property! We didn’t have to take her out on a leash every time she need to go — she loved staying there as much as we did. The mattresses were comfortable but neither bed had a headboard. If I were the owner I’d make that one improvement and maybe upgrade the sheets.

Glen Haven Mod - perfect balance!
We stayed at Glen Haven Mod on the River in early June 2025. Four adults stayed comfortably in the two bedrooms and it was so nice to have two bathrooms. The property is beautifully renovated and has all amenities to make for a wonderful mountain stay. A great location to enjoy the hub-bub of Estes and RMNP, but get away for a more relaxed nights' rest and family time. The little town of Glen Haven is a gem. Highly recommend the property and location, as well as working with Renee who was super responsive and helpful.

Peace of Paradise
We enjoyed our stay in Glen Haven. Being nestled between two rivers was magical. The property was clean & maintained well. We did have a slight hiccup with getting into the house at the very beginning of our trip as there is limited cell service in the area. Make sure you have all your checkin information/door codes available before arriving at the house. After we got into the property, everything went very smoothly. We had a great vacation.

We just spent a week up there and we really needed it. It’s such a beautiful, relaxing place. It helped us lay back and chill out. The river is so relaxing. I love this place!

Love the relaxing mountains!
Returning to Glen Haven we were not disappointed by the mountains and the people! This cabin met all our needs from the kitchen accessories to the bedroom arrangement. And the murphy bed was a comfy one! And we had our very own gang of hummingbirds!

My new favorite
Everything about our stay was magnificent. It’s quiet, we saw different birds and animals. The sound of the creek and cool mountain air was elixir for my soul. I plan to return any time I can, including winter. This home is gorgeous, comfortable, clea, and welcoming! I love it!
