Wonderful stay at "On the Rocks"!
The house was well furnished. The pinball machine was very popular with us and guests! (.50/game or 5 games for $2.00) Kitchen was outfitted nicely to prepare meals. The gas grill was a bonus. Plenty of room for guests to stay comfortably. The wood burning fireplace was so cozy. We ordered some wood to be delivered and had a fire most evenings. The views from the deck and living room were specular! We had 3 to 4 inches of snow three times. We never tired of the views! Enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and driving all around Estes Park. We were thrilled to see so much wildlife! A lot of mule deer, elk and a bobcat hunting mice on a couple of occasions. Our stay was a month long and we hated to leave. The Acela's were always prompt to address any questions. We would definitely like to return!

Beautiful location
The location was wonderful (close to RMNP and Estes Park) and the property was clean. The property had everything that we needed. The owner was prompt in all communication and responses to questions. I most enjoyed the views from the living and dining room. I rated it 4 stars for 2 reasons. We arrived on Monday Jan 1 and the 2 extra large trash cans in the garage were overflowing with trash from the previous occupants. By Tuesday the trash odor could be smelled in the bottom level of the home and continued until trash pick up on Thursday. The owners communicated that we were responsible for taking the trashcans to the curb for trash pick up. I asked about the overflowing trash cans and the owners requested that we do our best to close the trashcans so that the animals would not get into the trash (if they did we would be assessed a fine). I don't mind dealing with my own trash but I do not like having to handle and be responsible for other people's trash. The previous occupants left patio furniture outside on the deck (the house instructions say to move all of the patio furniture into the enclosed porch). We did not use or move any of the patio furniture. When I asked about leaving the patio furniture as it was when we arrived, I was told that it needed to be moved to the enclosed porch. I did not like having to be responsible for the previous occupants' failure to comply with the house rules.

Picture Perfect Mountain View
House on the Rocks was inviting and cozy. It provided all the amenities that we were looking for a Christmas/Graduation celebration. The hosts were so kind, had great communication, and check-in, and check-out were easy. The views were amazing, and the house is in a convenient location. we made many wonderful memories while staying here!

About the host

Hosted by Ed or Aaron Acela

Host profile image
My Wife, Father and I purchased our home in Estes Park in October of 2000. My father had traveled to Colorado many times with his parents as a kid. When he shared the mountain experience with me for the first time I knew I would always come back. We chose Estes Park as the people here are great and the atmosphere in town is very warm and inviting. In the spring there is lush green and wildflowers. Summer offers beautiful scenery and cool mountain air. Fall abounds with golden aspen and wildlife to include elk, deer, rabbit and even the occasional bear. Winters are mild and there is even downhill skiing and snow boarding within an hours drive. With just five minutes to downtown Estes or the entrance to RMNP we knew this was home.

Why they chose this property

Our family enjoys sitting on the deck and watching the clouds roll in over Longs Peak in the afternoon while our three daughters use grandpa’s binoculars searching the mountain sides and looking at the humming birds. The sky is so blue and the smell of pine trees in the air is relaxing while my wife enjoys a favorite book. Many evenings are spent grilling on the deck and eating as a family at the picnic table. Many nights are spent talking and telling stories next to the fire in the living room and planning the next days hike around Estes or in Rocky Mountain National Park.

What makes this property unique

Breathtaking views of Longs Peak and the Continental Divide and herds of elk and deer in the yard, along with the quiet secluded area and large moss rock fireplace are a few of the unique features of our cabin.
