Welcome to The Woolly Bugger Inn! Our cabins, tiny homes, and suites are tucked into the woodsy Big Thompson Canyon just minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park and downtown Estes Park.
The space
Snowshoe Hare is a cozy tiny home with a lofted king bed, full kitchen (with a compact, bar-style dining area), couch nook, and a full bath with a combination shower-tub. It includes an outdoor deck space with a propane fire pit, gas grill, and seating. Please note the lofted sleeping quarters are accessed by a staircase and require some nimble maneuvering to get into bed—we think it’s super cozy, but please only book if you're on board with some ducking (see photos)!
About The Woolly Bugger Inn:
We’re nestled along a quarter-mile private stretch of the (highly fishable!) Big Thompson River, with plenty of space to spread out and relax on our forested, five-acre grounds. The vibe here is cozy, laid-back, and old-school, with a mix of historic rental quarters and newer, more modern dwellings to choose from. We’re five minutes from downtown Estes Park and ten minutes from Rocky Mountain National Park.
Guest access
You'll have full access to your cabin, as well as our grounds, private riverfront (for catch and release fishing), communal fire pits, and decks. Enjoy!
Other things to note
Before you book, read on to ensure our quirky property is the right fit for your getaway:
Pets: We love hosting dogs! If you plan to bring your furry friend(s), please add them directly to your reservation at booking, at which point the pet fee ($20/dog/night) will be calculated directly into your trip total on the booking screen. Then, please shoot us a message with their name(s) and how many you plan to bring along (two max), and we’ll send you our pet policy and information. See “Additional Rules” for more.
WiFi & Cell: WiFi is limited throughout our canyon. We offer the best we can, but don’t expect to Zoom into meetings (or much of anything, internet-wise). Cell service is limited on the property at this time, so try to pull up your cabin and check-in instructions before you arrive.
Safety:
For the safety of our guests, we maintain outdoor security cameras to monitor wildlife visits, fire risks, hazardous elements, and other safety protocols (public spaces only). Please note our property is wild and rugged, with cliff features, boulders, slopes, uneven surfaces, river access, and regular wildlife visits (bear, elk, wild cats, and more). Use caution around any natural terrain, understand and follow wildlife safety practices, and abide by our pet, fire, hot tub (if your unit includes one), and on-site rules as posted in your cabin guide. Hot tubs [if applicable] are for use at your own risk and not protected by a gate; the hosts are not responsible for injuries resulting from the use of the hot tub. Guests shall hereby indemnify and hold harmless the Owner against any and all claims of personal injury or property damage or loss arising from the use of the property, inclusive of but not limited to the house, hot tub, fire pits, etc., regardless of the nature of the accident, injury, or loss.
Seasonal Information:
Winters & Shoulder Season: Winter in Estes is magical, and we’re happy to make recommendations on activities! While US-34 east of the Park remains open and plowed, if you’re planning to visit during the winter/shoulder season, consider snow tires and any other supplies you may want for winter conditions. Trail Ridge Rd and other routes over the continental divide close seasonally every year, so access to Grand Lake and the western part of RMNP requires rerouting through I-70 to the south (which adds about 3-4 hours to the trip). During winter, watch out for snow shedding from roofs and icy/snowy walkways along our rugged grounds. We’ll send more winter info about a month before arrival.
Summer/Early Fall: This is the high season! Note that certain cabins and suites can get toasty during the daytime, but night typically cools off significantly. Fire season typically falls between summer and early fall in the area, so air quality may be unhealthy during this time, particularly among sensitive groups.
Check out the Rocky Mountain National Park website ahead of time for more information on Timed Entry Permits during peak season (typically May-October).

Where you’ll be
Estes Park
At the gateway to alpine peaks, elk herds roam near downtown streets while local taprooms and craft beer lend the town its laid-back rhythm.
From the host
We’re located about 4 miles east of downtown Estes Park and about 8 miles east of Rocky Mountain National Park. With easy access right off Highway 34, our grounds are private and all-natural, with our own cliff features, mountain vistas, wildlife visitors, forests of ponderosas, Doug firs, and aspens, and a winding (and highly fishable!) stretch of the Big Thompson River.
