If your planning a trip to Estes Park and visiting Rocky Mountain National Park you won't find a more perfect location than Linger Longer! The house is well equipped, clean and comfortable. It truly feels like a home away from home. The views from the deck of Longs Peak and the continental divide are amazing and your just a few minutes from the Beaver Meadows entrance to the park. On our trip this year we saw six moose and tons of elk, which was surprising for late August. This was our forth stay at Linger Longer and we hope to make it again next year. We also had the pleasure of meeting our host, Aaron, who happened to be in Estes Park the day we were leaving. Thanks Aaron and Heidi for providing such a wonderful place to stay.

This is a very nice home and we have enjoyed staying there both times that we booked it. It's a very quiet neighborhood but is still very close to everything you need. We even made a new friend who owns the property next door. We would definitely consider staying here again. We've seen wildlife in the yard on both stays. Owners are very responsive if you have questions or issues.

Relaxing with great access to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park

The Linger Longer property is an excellent place to relax. The spacious great room and deck provided ample opportunity to relax and take in great views of the mountains. The location has easy access to Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park. The house, bedrooms, and bathrooms were very clean and everything was ready upon our arrival.

Wish we could linger longer

Fanstastic cabin! Extremely clean and extremely comfortable! We had a wonderful week. The property is within walking distance to a grocery store, restaurant, and gift shops. A 5 min drive into Estes Park, and equally close to the Bear Lake entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. We have been to Estes Park 3 times now, This is our favorite spot by far! We saw bobcat, elk, and deer from the porch. The view of Longs Peak and Mt. Meeker are stunning - especially in the morning. The hosts were very reachable and the check-in was smooth and easy. Fast Wi-Fi, Direct TV and of course other apps as long as you use your own log-in. Can't wait to come back!

Rocky Mountain Retreat

Our family of five traveled to Colorado to tour college campuses and explore Rocky Mountain National Park. This home was perfectly located near the Park entrance and equal distance between the two schools my sons were visiting. The home had everything we needed. We enjoyed evenings sitting on the deck to take in the Mountain views, watch for wildlife, and see the stars of the night sky. We visited the local market to cook a few dinners in the well stocked kitchen, and also enjoyed a few area restaurants suggested by the owners. Our highlight was rising early to hike in the park each day, our favorite was reaching the peak of Mount Chiquita. We will definitely choose Linger Longer again on our next stay in Estes Park.

100% would stay here again!

Such a great spot to stay in Estes Park if you're planning on spending the majority of your time exploring Rocky Mountain National Park! You cannot beat the location & distance from the Beaver Meadows (main) park entrance! The views of the mountains from the front windows/front porch are breathtaking. We stayed with our 2.5 year old who loved seeing the mountains every morning & night (& greeted them appropriately!). The cabin is cozy, well loved & overall was very clean! Check in & out process was a breeze! We would 100% stay here again if we're ever back to visit RMNP!! Thank you!!

Winter Getaway

We loved everything about this cabin! The view, the coziness, and the daily view of the neighborhood deer showing up in the yard. To top it off it’s right by the park and one of my favorite coffee shops, Coffee On The Rocks! We enjoyed grabbing a cup of coffee right before or after hitting the trails each day and coming home to a nice fire in the afternoon/evening. The owners are very friendly and accommodating, and we always enjoy staying in their cabins. Not a single thing I can complain about!

We Love "Linger Longer"

We have vacationed at Estes Park and have found "Linger Longer" to be the perfect home base for our explorations of RMNP and surrounding areas. It's location provides a perfect view of Long's Peak to enjoy while sitting in the comfortable living area after shopping or watching the rut in the Park. It has a great layout with full modern kitchen, laundry area and rustic fireplace. Bedrooms are a good size and the second bathroom is in the master bedroom. Outside there are pine trees, boulders, and a deer family rests in the sun on most days. We hope they continue to visit because hopefully we will return next year to celebrate our 50th anniversary!
