Our room included the couple spa , which is an add on of $20 per night. The cabin was well kept, the housekeeper lives on property and is such a sweet lady.

Pretty darn sure I left my heart at Estes purely from the magic of this property, can't wait to return. *Insert 100 heart gooey face emojis"

It was right on the creek as promised and it is so convenient to get to town. Maybe a 3-5 minute drive. The only reason I am not giving this place 5 stars is because of the bed. These beds are clearly very old spring mattress and dipped down in the middle so me and my boyfriend kept rolling down into each other all night. The first night I didn't get to sleep until about 5 am! However everything else was perfect. For a romantic weekend I definitely recommend paying the extra money for the jacuzzi tub it was lovely!

It came with everything you need to have a wonderful time with friends and family. There was a nice walk out patio connected to one of the upstairs rooms as well as a downstairs patio with a jacuzzi, BBQ Grill and patio chairs. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything as well which was really nice. They also had everything we needed for our toddlers including a pack and play, blankets, high chair, and baby fences. The owner was really nice and was very helpful. The location is just a short drive down the road to the downtown area very prime location between town and the RMNF. Theres grocery store and restaurants down the street which was convenient as well. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

My favorite place to stay in Gould. We arrive late and the hosts had something to do that night so…read morethey made very subtle arrangements for us to get into the cabin and to get the keys. While this place looks very rustic on the outside. They were very modern and neat on the inside. They were by far the cleanest place we have stayed at in the Gould/Walden area and we've been coming up here every summer for 5 years. The hosts are super friendly and took such great care of us. Gerry (with a G) and Millie are quite crafty making purses out of cowboy boots, fur coats, hats, boots, gloves, cell phone cases, clutches and more. The breakfast buffet is served from 7:30-9:00, the website hadn't been updated with the change and said they close breakfast at 10am. We arrived at 9:30 and were quite sad to find the buffet closed, however Gerry and Millie reopened the kitchen and made breakfasts for us! We promised to show up before 9am the next morning and found a buffet of the usual items including several different breads and fruits and breakfast burritos and home made green chili! We came back around 5pm from our adventures and Gerry invited us over to the main building for homemade ice cream! What a treat. Then they shared with us the tools of their trades for the various arts and crafts they produce. Very sweet of them. We stayed in the Bear cabin and it was perfect for 4 of us. It has a queen size bed in a separate bedroom and two twin beds in a loft. The small, but very functional, kitchen included a small fridge, a convection/toaster oven, a microwave, a 2 burner stove and a sink. A great experience... we'll be back next year if not before!

We just spent two nights at this friendly place. We were greeted by Milly and her tiny dog, Toto!…read moreThis place looks very rustic and the grounds are kept in their natural state. Milly walked us over to our cabin , The Wild Rose, and even found something for us to stabilize our kickstand on our motorcycle. Just a few minutes later, her husband Jerry stopped by to introduce himself. They are very nice people and greats hosts and cooks! Breakfast is included and cooked hot and fresh when you come in. There is also fruit, cereal and pastries. You can add supper to your stay by just letting them know the day before. There is not a menu, this is more of a bed and breakfast situation. Trust me though, the meals will not disappoint. ! Ours was a melt in your mouth steak cooked exactly how we wanted it. Served with bread, salad, potato, corn and cheesecake with fresh peaches! Our cabin was spotless and so comfortable. We enjoyed time on the screened in porch. We saw moose and deer by the pond located just steps from the cabins. They also provide fishing poles if you want to fish their pond. There is so much more to say but I encourage you to check it out on your own. If you are looking for peace, quiet and beauty, this is the place! Please note that our cell service was very spotty. That is actually a relief for us but the main office does offer wifi if you need to be more in touch! You need to visit Milly, Jerry and Toto!

Cozy, affordable Bed & Breakfast in a great location…read more Innkeepers Hans & Miriam run a lovely B & B just outside of the downtown in Estes Park. My wife and I stayed here when we vacationed in Colorado in June. We loved Colorado so much we moved there 5 months later! We stayed in an upstairs bedroom that was quaint and homey. The bed was comfortable enough and the room & bathroom were clean & ship-shape. Our hosts serve a group breakfast in the morning, and it was interesting to chat with the other guests. For the mornings that we planned to leave for Rocky Mountain National Park early, Miriam prepared a fortifying boxed breakfast ahead of time. The location was great as a jumping-off point for the Park, or for a stroll around downtown Estes. The only downside, and I don't really blame the owners (it is what it is), was that there was no air-conditioning. Normally at this elevation it wouldn't have been an issue, but it was an unseasonably warm week when we were there, getting up into the mid-90's during the day, and it took a long while to cool down. Hans & Miriam supplied us with a fan, which helped some. In hindsight, it kind of added to the charm, but at the time it was a bit uncomfortable. All in all, I would highly recommend The Quilt House for a cozy mountain getaway.

When you stay with Hans and Miriam at the Quilt House B&B, you feel like you are staying with your…read moresweet grandparents who will do anything to make you feel like you have come back home. It is cozy, friendly, welcoming, and definitely not trendy. If you want to be transported back to an imagined childhood with kind grandparents, this is the place for you. The Quilt House owners are Hans and Miriam Graetzer, who bought this home about 15 years ago and remodeled to be their retirement business. The lodging consists of three bedrooms, each with its own bath, on the second floor, along with a sitting room for guests. There is a cabin to the side as well. I only saw our room, which had two twin beds and a bath, and the sitting room, which you could reasonably call a Parlor, if you were old enough. The bathroom was small, but everything was spotless, and there was plenty of hot water. The Quilt House has nonsmoking, no alcohol, policies. If you want to come back to your room and have a glass of wine before bed, this is not the place for you. We had plenty of wine or beer with our dinners in town, so we didn't feel the need to get blotto before retiring for the night. The Graetzers provide a hearty, filling group breakfast at 8:00am. Everyone eats together. The food is delicious and simple, and all made by Miriam. She makes delicious nut breads and quiche. When we checked in, Hans asked if we had any dietary restrictions. We explained that we were vegetarians, and they were able to accommodate our dietary needs. Hans also asked if we preferred coffee or tea in the morning, and we were always served what we wanted. The one thing that might bother some folks is the religious practices, though some of you might appreciate it. The Graetzers are apparently devout Christians. Again, we felt like we were in Granddad's house, so we went along. Hans offered a blessing at breakfast on the first day, which, according to other guests who were regulars at the Quilt House, he typically does. The next day, he asked us to sing "God Bless America", and we did. Can't say I've ever done that before at breakfast. On our last morning, we were leaving at 6am, so Miriam packed us two breakfasts to go, which she left in the guest refrigerator in the parlor. There was enough food to feed six people. That was very sweet, and very much appreciated. Hans and Miriam have lived in Estes Park for almost 20 years. They are knowledgeable about the area and its attractions, and are very willing to answer any questions guests might have. There are books everywhere, and magazines, which guests are welcome to read. There are no televisions, no DVD players, no nothing of that sort. It's a quiet place. Again, if you need to watch ESPN or rent DVDs, this is not the place for you. The Quilt House is located on a side street that is only a five-minute walk from the Donut Haus, a good Italian restaurant, a local brewery, and a Chinese restaurant. Walk another 5 minutes, and you're in the heart of downtown Estes Park, with all sorts of restaurants and crappy shops that will appeal to any tourist. We enjoyed our stay at The Quilt House because we wanted simple, inexpensive, comfortable and convenient lodging. But we have simple needs. We got along just fine without TV, radio, Internet (no Wi-Fi here), and drinking alcohol before bedtime. We enjoyed talking with other guests at the breakfast table, and hanging out in the parlor, watching weather systems roll in from Rocky Mountain National Park. But if you need all the modern conveniences, and lots of special services and entertainment provided at your lodging, this may not be the place for you. For me and the sibling, it was just fine. We would stay again.

We were looking for a quiet place to just relax and this was it. We were here the week before Thanksgiving and were just about the only guests the time we were here (who takes a vacation the week before Thanksgiving?!) We stayed in the Riverside cabin which, I think, is their largest cabin (2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms). I'm not a roughing it kind of gal and it was great not to have to share a bathroom! Anyway, this cabin is very livable and even has a dishwasher. The cabin was very clean and the hosts were super friendly. I definitely plan to make another visit here!
