Onward!
Our Sanctuary is a spacious mountain property on the edge of the Estes Park Valley with jaw-dropping views of Twin Sisters Peaks, which light up each evening as the sun sets. There is nothing better than enjoying the alpenglow and a glass of wine on our deck, or just watching the Rockies light up each morning as the sun rises.
The rental is divided into two main section: the original home and a newer addition. The original home features 2 upstairs bedrooms with a shared bath, and a downstairs with a bathroom, kitchen/living area with a wood stove, dining room, and huge main living area with amazing views. The addition features 3 bedrooms and a bathroom, and creates a separate space that lets groups of families and friends divide and enjoy privacy. Maybe the kids get the addition and the parents get the rest -- or maybe one family gets the addition and another gets the rest. You pick!
Despite the home's proximity to the National Park and lots of hiking, I'd invite you to just enjoy the property and views and unwind. The views are sublime, the fireplace is so cozy and the deck is a delight!
BEDROOMS
Original Bedrooms 1 and 2: These are part of the main home, up the stairs and essentially above the kitchen. They both feature king beds and share a bathroom. There is nothing else on the upper floor. Both are spacious.

No smoking inside, outside, and no outdoor fire pits (now illegal in Estes Park's vacation homes). Charcoal BBQs are banned. Our gas grill and gas fireplace are both allowed.
ROAD CONDITIONS
Estes has a great plow team and our driveway will also be plowed during storms, but if there's a huge blizzard, they may not be plowed exactly when you need them to be. We cannot assist if you get stuck and we always recommend that people rent AWD or 4WD when visiting us from October to May. We are at 8,000 feet and this can be a snowy area!
