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.

We absolutely loved Mountain Shadows and hope to stay here again when we're back in Estes Park. The cabin was conveniently located near Rocky Mountain National Park and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including air conditioning, kitchen and a hot tub. Pam was very helpful and gave us great recommendations. I highly recommend staying here!
