Went to the visitor center and they recommended this place for rentals. My girlfriend and I were about to do some hiking and needed metal spikes for shoes and some poles. What made this place even better was their super friendly staff. They shared their knowledge of the trails and recommendations with us. Definitely stop here for all your hiking needs. read more

We came here to rent snow shoes to take into RMNP. The service was so helpful and so friendly. She gave us all the tips and tricks and when we returned the rentals, they were all genuinely interested in our experience with the snow shoes. The store has everything you could possibly need for whatever outdoor activity you are interested in. I highly recommend them. read more

We were headed out to do a hike and I realized that I forgot my hammock so we stopped here on our way to get one. I love this place! The staff has to be the most fun and nice group of people I've ever met. Feel like I could have hung out with them all day lol They have a huge variety of stuff, you can't even believe how big the building is. If you go downstairs they have a lot of discounted stuff and they also do rentals. read more

Super nice and helpful employees. The hiking rental gear was super cheap. We appreciate them for not price gouging! Definitely stop here before your trip into Rocky Mountain National Park. read more

Amazing experience renting gear two times in the holiday week. We had a large party all with different ski / snowboard needs. The gentlemen with short a beard helped us and was so knowledgeable, quick and supportive. It was 50$ per gear rental which is under 1/2 the price of the mountain rentals, great value. Highly recommend if you're heading to a mountain from Estes park. read more

There's a ton of stuff for any number of outdoor activities (eg, hiking, snowshoeing, etc.), but best of all the prices were reasonable. You also have the possibility of renting some gear if that's your preference. read more

I rented a Rad Power Bike from Seth And rode around Lake Estes. What a Beautiful Bike Ride with Awesome Scenery. It was a Blast and the Ebike made the hills disappear. I would highly recommend while in Estes Park Colorado. Thanks Seth! Evan S Pinther read more

Loved this rental shop - helped us navigate the winter wonderland of the Rockies. Back in November, we were doing several hikes in the Rocky Mountain National Park and the employees gave us hiking maps, directions and helped us rent gear. Recommend it for renting YakTrax plus poles. Two sets of both were total of 40 dollars. Very affordable, and rentals were for a 24 hour period. They make you fill out a waver and overall, very fast and easy process. Also have several other rentals: pair of snowshoes, sledding, snow pants, boots or a winter coat etc. ​ read more

A great pit stop before Rocky Mountain National Park to stock up on anything you need!! We planned on hiking Alberta Falls in mid May. Good thing I happened to read some reviews recommending this place to rent micro spikes as the trail was snowy. The spikes were only $10/day and easily the best money I've ever spent. The trail turned out to be 90% snow. I know I would've struggled so hard and had multiple slips if I didn't have spikes. Staff here was super friendly also and recommended trails for us to check out. read more

This place has been my one stop shop for when I visit Estes park. It will print fishing licenses for you, give you snow spike rentals, let's you rock climb inside, has great sales on hiking boots and have lots of clothing options. I'm sure this place is capable of so much more but these are the services I used and noticed here. The workers are all friendly and helpful while being locals so make sure to ask them what the best attractions in town are. read more

Such a cool place for indoor rock climbing- especially when the weather isn't warm outside. Took my 8.5 year old boys and they had a blast. This site offers Intro sessions (3 climbs for $25). The coaches were awesome! So patient and helpful. Definitely recommend this site!!! read more

We rented snowshoes and poles here for RMNP. The process was very quick, we were out in 15 minutes with recommendations for a place for breakfast, where to go cross country skiing (on another day), and assurances that the roads into RMNP were now open (they'd been closed for black ice but the staff was on it, making sure we could use our rentals). The rentals were inexpensive, reliable (MSR snowshoes), and in good condition. We will definitely rent here again. read more

Loved this shop! Way better than I imagined... it's not very well organized but that's because there's so many amazing items here. The rock climbing gym is small but great for a mid-day adventure. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We made a few trips here because of the May snow caught us off guard. There's access to the trail around the back side of the store to the back of dam. Locals say fishing is great where the dam flows into the river. Thankful to have found this place and will definitely stop in again next time we're in the area! read more

Our family was leaving on a trip to Iceland in a few days including a two year old. We needed a backpack to carry the toddler. A staff member patiently helped & advised us while we put the kid into every toddler-carrier they had and walked around inside & outside the store to try each one. The one we really loved had waist/hip straps that weren't long enough for one of our family members. Another employee, Dave, volunteered to take the pack home with him and to both provide, and sew on new extra long straps to solve that issue. Dave did indeed do that for us, and refused to accept any money! Absolutely amazing customer service! read more

We use EP Mountain Shop on every trip to find the gear or rentals we need. Always receive friendly, informed service. Stopped in tonight in search of trek poles. After some discussion and insight we picked out a couple pairs of poles. The 25% sale they have going on was a bonus! Check them out! read more

Amazing place!! Everyone here was so helpful and kind. I rented snowshoes (only five dollars for the entire day!) and the guy working showed me how to use them and gave some useful tips. As a non-outdoorsy person, I also had regular boots on and those didn't feel good with the snowshoes so they also were able to rent me some appropriate winter boots. All the equipment was in good shape. The whole process was easy and everyone made me feel comfortable. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to rent equipment! read more

Absolute stop by the mountain shop when you visit Estes! They have tons of clothes and gifts, probably the largest selection in Estes. They also have tons of rental gear and expertise. We have rented from them on multiple occasions both in the summer and winter and always have a great experience. They have a huge selection of rental gear that is well priced and the staff are super enthusiastic. Anyway I can't say enough good things about this shop, it's definitely a go to spot in Estes Park! read more

Needed to rent micro spikes and the staff member was extremely informative, quick and the spikes reliable

Friendly staff, great selection for gear rental! Will definitely use this place again.

For a town so small, this shop is MASSIVE. It's downright CAVERNOUS. They have anything you could ever need for adventures in the mountains. While we were there, they were having a crazy sale (20% off everything?!) The staff were all seasoned climbers and had great beta about climbs in the area. There's also a rock wall in here, not sure if it's a rock gym or just a place to test out shoes. The bathroom was nice too. read more

Stopped by to rent a pair of micro spikes for my partner. Guys and gals were super chill and know what they are talking about without being rude know it alls. Will stop by here on my next trip to RMNP. Thanks. read more

Great prices on brand names in the bargain basement. It's hit or miss on sizes but it's very fun to walk around. My family walked out with 4 jackets and everyone was happy. read more

Estes Park Mountain Shop gave us so much quality advice, discounts, gear repair, and even large donations to make our Oscar Mike expeditions a success! 6 weeks this summer were set aside to host different groups of disabled veterans on rocky mountain adventures. These programs were made possible with support of the EP mountain shop. The mountain shop is the best store on the planet, and it will always be the first stop I make when looking for the gear I depend on. read more

I specifically rented an E bike from this company because they do the tours of the Old Fall Rivers Road to the Alpine Center. The person who rented me the bike told me not to charge it for more than four hours. So that night I charged it for exactly 4 hours. The next day I took off on my ride. I made it 4.5 miles, then the battery died. It is a one-way road! I had to push 50 pound bike 6 miles with an elevation gain of over 2500 feet starting at 9500 feet. I am 58 years old woman. When I complained them, the worker just brushed it off like it wasn't a big deal. It was a big deal! They should train their staff better. read more

Great service and reasonable prices! They also had a great selection and helped us chose the proper gear.

Wow! Still speechless from our snowshoe guided tour this morning. Charles Jones, our guide, was fantastic! He personalized the tour to our liking and had a wonderful personality. His knowledge of the area, birds, trees, trails, and animals made this trip something we will never forget. We would never have experienced RMNP like this on our own. Thanks for a great trip Charles! read more

Hit these guys up before hiking through the park. We rented micro spikes and the people there were real helpful about what to expect. Also, lots of awesome gear and clothes. read more

This is THE place to go before heading up to RMNP, ESPECIALLY in the winter. The staff here is very knowledgeable about the park and the gear. They will let you know what gear is the best for where you're going to hike and what the weather is like. They have great rental gear. I have rented from here a handful of times and each time the gear is great and it's just want I needed for the day. Great prices too. This is a must before heading up to the park. read more

The Mountain Shop is a great place to shop for everything you need to spend time outdoors. They have a great rental section, a bargain basement, a large assortment of shoes and boots, clothes, and even souvenirs. Their team members are very friendly and knowledgeable and we've been fortunate to be assisted by Adam during our last few visits. Highly recommend! read more

The bike shop was amazing! I brought my road bike in because I broke the chain and don't have great knowledge on bike repair. The repair person took my bike right away, fixed it with no problem and even took the time to explain a lot about bike mechanics to me. The shop also has a ton of outdoor gear and clothing! Thank you for the wonderful service, you saved my ability to continue training while on vacation in Estes! read more

My family and I did the rock climbing wall and had a fantastic time! Our belayer was Austin (I think) and he was so patient and fun, he made our time a blast. Thank you for a great time! read more

Super easy to rent winter equipment. They recommended not using show shoes for RMNP starting at Bear Lake and higher; but the ranger station at Bear Lake recommend snowshoes. Either at spikes worked great and super friendly staff. read more

Love me some North Face gear and this place is the spot to get it. We were vacationing in Colorado and needed some last minute cold weather gear. We stumbled upon this store by accident and boy are we glad we did. The staff was sooo friendly and informed us about the "bargain basement". The angels sang. Holy moly! We went down there and there were so many great items at a great price. I fell in love with a great North Face fleece and was able to buy it at 30% off. Don't pass this place up if you are near Estes Park. We may even be returning for a second shopping spree before we leave to go back to Illinois. Oh how I wish we had one of these back at home. read more

The perfect stop for all of your rental needs! My friend and I stopped in to rent a sled and some snow boots (no we don't have any, we're from Arizona) and received the most excellent service. It was our first time heading into the Rockies so we were nervous, but everyone was very attentive and gave us great tips. I figured that every thing would be way overpriced since it was the only rental shop I could find in town, but the prices were very reasonable. So, no need to bring a lot with you or plan way ahead of time. Estes Park Mountain Shop has just about anything you might need! read more

let me just say that I am a brand new customer to the shop. I would highly recommend purchasing from this business. The reason I say that is that Riley and her team go above and beyond what it means to have customer service. This business has very high expectations of keeping you happy. This definitely shows with their attitude on the phone when it comes to customer service and making the order right. I am only sorry I live on the other side of the United States because it would be great to actually meet all of them. Nevertheless, please give them a shot ! You will not be disappointed. read more

Had the best rock climbing experience with our guide Bob. We chose to do the 6 hour climb, and not only did we get to climb and repel, we actually learned how to do it all ourselves. After the climb I feel very confident that we could go out and do a climb on our own now. Would definitely recommend, it was a very personal group, only 3 of us, so we really got to get involved. read more

Phenomenal service here first of all. Came in, and the gentleman at the front counter greeted us and asked how he could help us. We were looking to rent winter boots and snowshoes and he directed us over to the back right side. He suggested to get the youth sizes for the snowshoes because they were a bit smaller and the fit was much better. I appreciated that because last time I went snowshoeing somewhere else the snowshoes were too big and I had to have my feet farther apart in order to keep myself from stepping on them. We were able to rent winter boots for $10 and snow shoes for $5. There's also a huge variety of other things you can rent. From skis to climbing gear, etc. and everything is at a super good price too! They have a lot of clothing and gear they sell in their merchandise as well. They have lots of clothes, shoes and equipment upstairs and downstairs at their basement. They also have a small rock climbing gym tucked away on the left when you enter in. They don't make any money from it but it's nice to have something, better than nothing, for training and climbing for fun purposes. Definitely check this place out. It's about 30-40 minutes away from Rocky Mountain NP, so great to stop by and grab rentals for the day before heading into the park! read more
