THE LOOSE MOOSE LODGE
Come stay and get loose with the moose! Your home away from home in Estes Park, CO: family friendly, fun, and memorable! Outstanding Views! Perfect in every way!
Kick up your feet, relax, and enjoy this beautifully appointed, air conditioned, modern, three bedroom mountain lodge within walking distance to downtown Estes Park (1 mile) and only a five minute drive to the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park, where you will find some of the best hiking in Colorado.
This incredible lodge features a private, six person outdoor hot tub on the back patio and a gas fire pit and BBQ grill on the deck with a view of Prospect Mountain. The Big Thompson River can be accessed via two paths just 100 feet from the back door. Bring your pole and try your luck at fishing (catch & release) or simply enjoy a leisurely stroll down the river’s secluded pathway.
During the day you will enjoy the spacious great room with huge windows full of Colorado sunshine. During the evenings, you will enjoy the glow of the fireplace with comfy chairs and a beautiful leather sofa making this the perfect retreat to relax and slumber as adults enjoy a bottle of wine and kids enjoy some hot chocolate. The lodge is beautifully decorated by the owner with mountain and cabin-themed decor. There are three bedrooms: a main floor king master suite, a king guest bedroom, and a queen guest bedroom. This lodge sleeps six comfortably.
The chef in your group will relish in the company of their loved ones while whipping up their favorite recipes in the fully equipped kitchen. There is an elegant breakfast bar with seating for three and a kitchen table with seating for six. Additionally, this lodge is stocked with everything you need from linens, towels, board games, card games, movies, and books.
From the elevated deck or the lower patio, be prepared to encounter deer or elk grazing throughout the neighborhood. If you are lucky, you might see a moose (on the loose), bighorn sheep, mountain goats, and maybe a mama black bear with cubs. Wildlife frequents this area so keep your eyes open and your camera ready.
Be sure to find the gondola during the summer; it goes up Prospect Mountain and offers breathtaking views of the continental divide, the national park, and the entire Estes Park valley. Don’t forget to visit Fun City and enjoy the bumper boats and bumper cars, mini golf, a giant slide, a bungee trampoline, and go-cart racing. Also visit the super fun aerial obstacle course of the Open Air Adventure Park. Some Estes Park attractions are closed seasonally, so please check availability online. Note: Estes Park has a free shuttle network that goes all over the town and into the National Park. In general, the shuttles run late June to mid-September. When you're here, you can leave the car parked in the garage to avoid the traffic of downtown and walk to your favorite restaurants, bars and shops (1 mile).

We absolutely loved this place! It was very clean and thoughtfully equipped with everything you would need. Amazing location! Loved the deck, hot tub, and incredible views. Enjoyed the peaceful walk to the coffee shop. This was by far the best place we have ever stayed in. We will definitely be back!
We stayed here for a wedding in town. The house was very clean and nicer than we have come to expect from a rental. The view is beautiful and there is a little path down by the creek that leads right to a great coffee shop with a duck pond. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.
The Loose Moose Lodge was perfect in every way possible. The location couldn't have been better. Just minutes from the park entrance or downtown Estes Park, you couldn't be in a better spot to explore the area. The home was exactly how it was described online and had all the amenities to make your stay enjoyable and seamlessIf ever back in Estes Park, we would definitely stay here again. Thanks again Nathan!
One of the best vacation rentals we’ve stayed in! The property is beautiful, close to RMNP and town. Thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. They thought of everything from Tide Pods to hiking poles. The hot tub was wonderful after a day of hiking. Can’t wait to visit again!
Beautiful, clean home and well-equipped kitchen. Wonderful location right by the river.
We saw SOOO many elk, and enjoyed the large bull keeping the young buck away from his girls, lol!
This home was super comfortable and perfect for our party (6 adults). It was clean and very well stocked with all the things necessary for a multi day stay. It was well situated to downtown Estes Park and RMNP. Several trails in the part were a short 10min drive. Entirely happy with our choice!
This property is exceptional! The owners have thought of everything, so you can just arrive, relax, and enjoy. The location is excellent with beautiful views and close proximity to the Big Thompson River. Additionally, it is convenient for both getting into the center of Estes Park and out to Rocky Mountain National Park. This was a return trip for us to this property, and we hope to be back again next summer too!
This was a great option for 3 couples celebrating anniversaries. We cooked several times in the very well appointed kitchen, the bathrooms were spotless and the beds were SO comfy. Every detail was well thought out and the hosts even had a welcome card and gift for us when we arrived as well as some snacks and wine. We were so impressed that we would definitely come and stay again should we be in Estes. Thanks for a great weekend full of spectacular morning views and meals with friends.
Been coming to stay at this home in Estes for the past 6 years at least for my bday weekend. Nate and his family always leave me a warm welcome. The place is always so clean and beautifully decorated and has everything you need while you stay! I hate to tell anyone else about it because one year, I couldn't get it for my birthday lol. Anyhow I love it here!
This property was well suited for our extended family gathering, which consisted of grandparents, mom/dad, and 2 children 9/7. The grandparents were comfortable in the ground floor master suite, while mom/dad and the kids had there own space in the walk-out downstairs suite. The kitchen/dining/living room was beautifully setup with windows galore and the kitchen was well stocked which served our purposes as we mainly cook in. Access to a short (0.5 mile) river trail was excellent, although the property itself was not adjacent to the river as we thought it was from the advertisement. Not a huge deal but caught us slightly by surprise. The neighborhood was very quite, and was situated on the west side of downtown Estes. Overall this was a great experience for us and we would consider staying at this property for another visit in the future and/or recommending it to friends. Thank you.
Great home near downtown and RMNP. Beautifully furnished and well equipped kitchen. We thoroughly loved staying here. Definitely I recommend this home for your stay in Estes Park!
Everything was top notch. Would stay here again. Loved the location and the property was great for my wife and I and our kids and grandkid. Can’t wait to come back!
Great ease of use. Superb amenities. Extremely well stocked kitchen. Location is perfectly centered between the park/ymca and town. River walk and coffee shop are awesome. Very comfortable spaces upstairs and down. Beds were very comfortable.
We have stayed in this house for multiple years in a row and consider ourselves lucky to have found it. The location could not be better - close to a grocery store, coffee on the rocks, and the entrance to Rocky Mountain National park. And the house has absolutely anything that you might need. We look forward to this trip every year.
My family have stayed at properties all over the country and this was by far our best experience with a home. We appreciate all the little details that made our stay fantastic and would recommend to any and all! Just cannot say enough about how wonderful it was.
