Estes Park always delivers. We go there for the breathtaking views and to see all the wildlife. We saw lots of elk in rut, tons of deer, mountain sheep but missed a moose or bear. Both were spotted while we were there. Make sure to get your limited access passes early so that you can go into the whole park. Otherwise you are restricted on where you can go to look or wildlife and hike.

We really enjoy being in Estes Park. Loved the little town with lots of gift shops and restaurants. The air is clean and the sky was always so dramatic and beautiful. Bring umbrella it rains in the middle of summer too, but we liked it.

Estes Park can get crowded but there is always plenty to do and see both in the town and in Rocky Mountain National Park. This motel is very recently updated, so small but comfortable. There is a walking path that goes to the Town - about a mile away - and you can continue walking or catch bus/shuttle services during the summer season -July and August.

Estés park is a beautiful little town. We had a few sprinkles but not enough for an umbrella. Everything there is clean and new. Lots of restaurants to choose from on the Main Street. The elk are everpresent and not afraid of people. Located amid the mountains, it’s cooler than the flatlands of Denver. The city is well kept; flowers and plants everywhere and ornamental trees. Traffic slow and pedestrian friendly

Estes Park is a very small community, located outside of Rocky Mountain National Park. It is small, and easy to go to different places as long as you are driving. The visitor center was great, offering a series of shuttle buses to explore the area. Perhaps Estes Park needs another grocery store, as Safeway seems to be the main place, and can be very crowded.

We booked a cabin for 3 nights, so that gave us 4 days of activities. The first day we acclimated to the altitude and just chilled at the cabin. No ac was available in the Resort we stayed, but later learned it wasn't anywhere in the area. Was expecting more wildlife, but read that the elk come down during the rut to the city during September-October. We did the Green Jeep 4x4 private tour to the top of the Rocky Mountain National Park. We saw lots of elk, deer, pika, and beautiful scenery. Went all the way to theTundra. Amazing. Rode horses up into the Rocky Mountain National Park. We went with the stable that allowed a heavier weight limit. Never rode before and was a wonderful experience. Drove around down town a bit, we are not the night life type, so we went downtown Estes Park about 9am and most stores were open. Enjoyed the scenery and the cool weather. Would definitely recommend.
