Wow what an amazing home. Very close to the Rocky Mountains National Park, which is why we were in Estes Park. Close to the shopping. We would definitely stay at the house again. I can’t say anything negative. It was wonderful and met all our needs. Wasn’t able to get a great pic of the bull elk however I grab these pics from the deck. We were eating supper when he walked by the window!!!Thank you Addie Chase

5 adults stayed 4 nights and were very pleased. Very clean, good location for us. We rarely saw any other people in the ares.The highlight of the lodging was easy proximity to a lovely river path. The elk that surfaced were kind enough to share with us! We were there for family reunion, so sadly spent very little time at the townhome.

Great Townhome

Loved our stay in the Gateway to the Wildside townhome in Estes. We loved the interior and how beautifully it was decorated. The kitchen was big and well laid out. The aspen's were starting to turn to that beautiful yellow color. Weather was perfect all 4 days.

Fall Getaway

My family and I was able to stay at the lodge for a short fall getaway. The central location of the property close to Estes Park and minutes away from the RMNP was perfect! We even saw some elk a few lodges down from where we stayed. The cleanliness of the lodge stood out most to us and made us feel right at home. I highly recommend this property tor a Colorado visit!

Rocky Mountain Retreat

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Wildside Lodge. It was our first time visiting the area. Great location to both the National Park and quaint area of Estes Park for dining and shopping. The lodge was well appointed and had everything we needed. It felt like “home”. We spent our days exploring the National Park-such a great experience! We would stay at the Wildside again.

Fantastic Location

Wonderful location both close to EP and to two entrances for RMNP. Clean property which was true to description and photos. Take note of minimal provision of shampoo, soap, laundry detergent, garbage bags, etc. although this was inconvenient, we appreciated it being explained upfront. We accidentally locked ourselves out of the home and the mgmt company was kind and very responsive in getting us quickly back into the property. We were very grateful!! Highly recommend this property.

Great Location!! Really clean and cozy...

This condo was in a great location, minutes from the entrance to RMNP. Restaurants on both sides of condo; towards town and towards Mountains. Great coffee place in walking distance with nice walk on river. Saw multiple Elk in neighborhood. Very nice living environment and all the general things you would need for your stay. The plus with this place is the people who own it, live there when they don't rent it out, so the kitchen is well stocked and feels like home. We had an amazing time. Thank you so much, Laura

Beautiful space. Great location.

Loved the location of the property…close to the RMNP entrance and to downtown. It was just enough room for our family and the space was decorated nicely. My only negative remark is…I think it’s a bit much to ask renters to load and start the dishwasher and gather up and dispose of all garbage when we are already paying a large cleaning fee and our stay was only for 2 nights.
