About this property

Custom built Estes Park Home! Family friendly and room for everyone!

Enjoy your stay in Estes Park by staying in the Tranquil Vale! (Lic #3508) An open and spacious ranch-style home, that sits on a large lot within a gated garden oasis. The custom built home has been set up with an open concept kitchen, dining, and living space so no one feels left out of the fun. The bedrooms are all tucked away in various corners of the house giving everyone that special feel of privacy.
There are garden paths that meander through the property giving people access to great outdoor spaces for reading, bbq cooking or swinging.
The multiple bedrooms features a variety of bedding arrangements; one queen bed, two double beds, and multiple twin beds means everyone will have plenty of places to sleep.
The living room is large and open with a wood burning fireplace, large leather sofa, chair, and rocker that is perfect for relaxing. There is a 55” Samsung Internet TV hooked up for Netflix, HBO GO, Chrome-Cast, Amazon, or Hulu. There is also an HD DVD player hooked up and ready to go.

This home is very convenient to Estes Park, only 1.5 miles from the southern edge of town, just off Highway 7, on a paved road.

Please, no smoking and SMALL pets only allowed.

Please note: their is a nice renter in a downstairs apartment below front of the house only. They usually make little or no noise. The renter has their own driveway and entrance.

NEW 2019 - we had extra sound proofing and insulation put in during the Spring of 2019. Wasn't really an issue but wanted VRBO renters to feel comfortable making noise without worrying.

NEW 2020 - we just had a very nice 8 person hot tub put in on the back deck. We also added a fire pit in the back yard - so bring your s’mores sticks.

Perfect Mountain Retreat in Estes Park!

We had a wonderful stay at this mountain home! The location was unbeatable – close to everything yet surrounded by nature. The fenced-in yard was perfect for our pets, and the hot tub was a great way to unwind after a day of exploring. The house itself was spacious, with plenty of sleeping options for our family of 5. It truly felt like a home away from home, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Estes Park!

Great location

We enjoyed the proximity to the National Park and restaurants/shops. House is very roomy with nice mountain views! The owners were very nice and easily accessible. I asked about getting an Iron and they made it happen. This house would be great for a big family with little ones as well. Pet friendly a plus!!

It's close to downtown. Deer hung out, outside of the house. Uptown was a huge herd of elk. The house is roomy and open. This is our second year there. We enjoy it.

Great Stay

The main areas of the house were very open and spacious. For our group, we could be in the kitchen, dining room, and living room and still be together. The large table was perfect for us to all be able to sit together. Plenty of beds. Enjoyed the hot tub and pet friendly.

Great get-away in Estes Park

The property is great, Joe/Diane were great to deal with and communicate quickly. The hot tub was great, the backyard is smaller than advertised but more than sufficient. Lots of wildlife close, very quick drive to town, and house has everything you need for a long term stay. Would definitely book again.

A lovely spot for a getaway!

My friends and dog loved our stay here! The home is so cozy and beautiful! We really enjoyed the hot tub, the spacious kitchen and playing games around the dining room table. The location is great- so close to estes park and great hiking in Rocky Mountain. We loved our cozy winter weekend!! And this house seems like it would be so fun in the summer with all the sun rooms and views!

Tranquil Lane

Overall was a great stay! Picture is a bit misleading on the size of the yard as the picture is showing yard of renters down below. Unfortunately for the owners, there is a large multistory unit being built behind their house which was an active construction site. The house had ample space and sleeping arrangements. Kitchen was fully stocked for all our cooking needs (except a cheese grader 😃 )! Hot tub was excellent!

Lovely winter getaway!

We really enjoyed the property. The kitchen, dining and living room are all 1 open space which was great for everyone to hang out together. We also really enjoyed the hot tub! We were disappointed in the beds. The mattresses were really uncomfortable and there were only twin or full sizes, no queen or king sized beds. Also would have been good to know that 2 of the bedrooms connect so that you have to walk through one to get to the other. I would recommend to the owners to update all of the finishes and furnishings for a more modern feel, right now everything is pretty outdated and it doesn't really feel like a vacation home.

Estes Park get away

Large home with 4 bedrooms & multiple beds. You do have to go through 2 bedrooms to go to the backyard & hot tub but it wasn't a problem for us. The back yard, patio, & hot tub were nice. It was a good value for the price. We would definitely go there again. One morning we saw 5 elk right across the driveway.

About the host

Hosted by Joseph Croteau

Host profile image
We live in Longmont, Colorado and purchased Tranquil Vale for our large family to use for family gatherings and special occasions. We are not far away should you need anything for your stay!

Why they chose this property

We have a big family and use this property for family get togethers. We have taken care of the cleaning fee into the price which makes it much more affordable for families to afford to come to Estes Park and experience the Rocky Mountains together. It has everything one could need to spend anywhere from a couple of nights to an entire week. Enjoy the location and proximity to everything Estes Park has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The fenced in nature of the property makes it unique. Wandering paths through gardens and built in outdoor space makes it ideal for people who want to comforts of a mountain home but also enjoy being outside.
