Wedding weekend

We travelled in for a wedding and the groom’s family stayed here. The space was great for a variety of ages in the family from a newborn, multiple toddlers, 2 teens, to the adults. The river was calming and beautiful and located perfectly outside of town where it was not too far but not too close either. The host was very communicative from booking to checkout. Thanks for a great stay!

Great Location for Family

We loved staying at the Koenig Lodge in Aspen Brook. It is right on the river and has easy access into Rocky Mountain National Park. The house had lots of room for our 3 generations of Family. The older kids especially enjoyed the bunk room and the game areas. We definitely recommend this excellent home!

Just what we wanted!

We booked this as a relaxing work retreat/team building weekend. It was perfect! The location is just fabulous with the river literally right off the back deck. We enjoyed the walking trails and the great coffee shop/bakery across the street. The house was lovely and gave each family their own space but the living room and game room were such great communal areas! Will likely stay there again!

Wonderful AspenBrook Lodge

This lovely lodge right on the big Thompson River was so perfect for our big family. The kitchen is well stocked with appliances, the beds are many and good, the games are plentiful and throwing rocks into the river could entertain tiny ones for days! We could not have asked for better accommodations. Management was perfect to work with and we appreciated that. highly recommend this house to others with large families. FB

Family time. 5 adults and 7 grand children

Clean, well taken care of. The host was great. The running river by the house was so peaceful. Three deer walked right up to the house eating grass. Beautiful setting. Foosball, arcade and ping pong were lots of fun in the basement. We took full advantage of the Rocky Mountain YMCA just 1/2 mile away. Very close to all the great things to do in Estes Park.
