Luxury Mountain Retreat Near Park Estes Stunning Views Perfect Weddings Families

Tahosa Ranch is a beautiful hand-crafted log mountain home designed for guests who want space, privacy, and unforgettable Rocky Mountain views. Set on 5.55 acres bordering National Forest, this three-story retreat offers a true mountain escape with the comfort of home, the beauty of nature, and direct access to outdoor adventure right from the property.

Inside, the home is warm, spacious, and full of character, with vaulted ceilings, log beams, two stunning stone wood-burning fireplaces, and plenty of room for families and groups to gather. The open main living area flows easily into the kitchen and dining room, where a custom Ponderosa pine table creates the perfect setting for shared meals and memorable conversations. A second living space on the lower level offers even more room to relax, while the loft provides a fun hideaway for kids and a unique bird’s-eye view of the home.

Step outside to the large deck and take in sweeping views of Mt. Meeker, a year-round stream, and a peaceful Aspen grove. Horse Creek runs through the front of the property, and wildlife sightings are part of the experience, with moose, deer, and turkey often seen nearby. Guests love the peaceful setting, the sense of privacy, and the feeling of being surrounded by nature without sacrificing convenience.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Tahosa Ranch is hard to beat. The home has private access to National Forest and the surrounding trail system, making hiking, biking, fishing, and exploring incredibly easy. Wild Basin, Copeland Falls, and Copeland Lake are all less than a mile away, and the Wild Basin entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park is just across Highway 7. In every season, this is an ideal base for Colorado adventure, from summer fly-fishing and horseback riding to winter snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, sledding, and cozy evenings by the fire.

The home is also perfectly located for weddings, family gatherings, and special celebrations, with room for everyone to spread out and enjoy time together. Guests have especially loved the open floor plan, great bedroom layout, peaceful location, mountain views, and responsive hosting. The custom shuffleboard table, games, puzzles, oversized two-car garage, and extra recreation gear add even more fun for all ages.

Tahosa Ranch feels wonderfully tucked away, yet it is only about 15 minutes to Estes Park, 25 minutes to Lyons, and 40 minutes to Boulder or Longmont. Whether you spend your days hiking right out the back door, exploring Rocky Mountain National Park, celebrating with loved ones, or simply relaxing with a cup of coffee while watching the wildlife pass by, Tahosa Ranch is a one-of-a-kind mountain retreat ready to welcome you.

Family Trip 2025

Our family had a great time! We enjoyed our time together and the house made for great memories with how open it is and we really enjoyed the shuffle board table!The house was well stocked and very comfortable. Our grands enjoyed the loft area but it would have been nice to have window coverings to help with the morning light. We had some issues with the windows and screens but were able to get them working. We loved how close we were to Rocky Mountain National Park and Estes Park…we enjoyed both!

Wonderful place to disconnect from it all for a week

Location remote- loved it. Moose, elk and coyote we think all seen on property. Fixed all our meals but one for the whole week - kitchen was good. Plenty of space, large open area. Fires in fireplace was wonderful. Bathrooms large. Beds comfy. Some updates needed to home but just a little. Definitely stop at a grocery store before getting to the house save you time. TJ , our host, was the best host we have had in all the VRBOs. He replied to question right away, was very helpful and kind. He went above and beyond and made our stay the best!
We spent a lot of time on the deck!  Lots of hummingbirds!

Secluded, Peaceful Cabin in the Woods

House was as advertised in every way! Homeowner was quick to respond to every question that we had. The suggestions of restaurants, sites, itinerary, companies (white water rafting) were so helpful to maximize the 5 days we had. We followed the suggestions and everyone was great. We would recommend Snowy Peaks Winery. If you are looking for a place with plenty of room to spread out or a place to have a family gathering, this place will fit the bill! There is room to sit around a large table for meals and afterward to play card or board games. We would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Wedding Weekend

Had my daughters wedding at Wild Basin lodge. This house is perfect for a large group. Several hang out areas to spread out in. I have stayed in house rentals many times and this home exceeded my expectations. The furniture was comfortable and new. All electronics worked despite the house being pretty remote, kitchen was very supplied with everything we needed. Cannot say enough about how well supplied this home was. Any questions to owners were answer promptly. Will definitely stay here again. Did not want to leave.

Family Wedding

It is very convenient to Wild Basin for a wedding. Although the listing says 12 people ( we had 11 one night and 10 the pther nights) there are not enough sheets or pillows to accommodate 12 people. We couldn't find extra sheets for the sofa bed or the futon. We ended up using sleeping bags that we brought with us in case of emergency. The pots and pans are mostly quite old and corroded. The shuffleboard table was fun for the family and the location is great

Wedding at Wild Basin

Overall disappointing! The property was very rundown and required many updates. It was not very clean and it was disturbing to see rodent traps and numerous cobwebs throughout the home. The lightening was not only difficult to locate switches in some places, but the wiring seemed questionable. One on the bedrooms smelled of vomit. The 20 year olds in the group were ok with the accommodation, but the 50 year olds were not. Our expectations were higher. The only redeeming quality was the proximity of the home to our venue. I would not recommend!

I think "luxury" overstates the condition of the property. A better description might be rustic. It did have a few luxury features. Everyone loved the downstairs shower, and the kitchen has double ovens, a nice stovetop and refrigerator. The leather couches were nice and comfortable, and there was plenty of space. There is definitely some wear and tear, but that's to be expected in a mountain cabin. For instance, some drawers in the kitchen need repair, and there are general scuff marks on floors and walls. I also wish there was better overhead lighting in the main room, especially over the long dining room table. There were plenty of lamps, but a lot of exposed cords, which made me nervous about our toddler granddaughter.The cabin had everything my family needed, it was clean, there were plenty of paper supplies, as well as cooking utensils, plates, glasses, mugs, etc.The view of Mt. Meeker was awesome. Our first morning there I was able to have coffee on the deck and enjoy the view. Unfortunately for me, we got afternoon rains that left the porch wet so we didn't get to use it nearly as much as we would have liked. There were a couple hummingbird feeders in the kitchen, so I hung one out on the deck. Multiple hummingbirds quickly drank it dry. The location was quiet, private, and close to the RMNP and Estes Park.Overall, my family thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and I would recommend this VRBO to others. None of the negative comments I made above should deter you.

Maintenance lacking - not our favorite

This property is in a great location and has a lot of space. It is great for a larger group and the host was pretty responsive. However, it could use some attention. There was a screen door that was broken (literally fell off and could not be reattached), multiple non-functional lamps, a broken chair, non-functional windows in the loft, and two modern non-working ovens. The owner was responsive when we reported the ovens on the first day but they didn’t get fixed the entire week. This last one was a big one for us as we had carefully planned our meals to save money and had to make do with a small toaster oven instead. We appreciated the response but the overall theme was that there just doesn’t seem to be a lot of maintenance checking being done. There is also only a charcoal grill which was not our favorite. The windows that do open took some work to get open and closed. If you plan to use the loft for sleeping, be aware it can get very warm in the summer. There is a fan but that only does so much. We were also very disappointed with the master bathroom bath/shower. It collected a lot of water along the edges, making an already hazardous step into the tub even more slippery. If you are older do not plan to use this bathroom as it is a high and long step to get into the tub/shower. Pros: The downstairs bathroom was much better and everyone enjoyed the rain shower. The bed in the master bedroom is very comfortable and the shuffle board was fun.

In one word - Incredible

The Tahosa property was beyond perfect for our family and friends! We had our wedding at the near-by Wild Basin Lodge and booked this house for ourselves and bridal party. It is hard to put into words how great it was. It is perfectly tucked away to be a relaxing mountain home, but close enough to the main road to get anywhere you need to go. The shuffle board table was a huge hit and hosted many competitive games. The large main room was a perfect spot for family and friends to all get together and enjoy each others company. The raised deck was a great spot for a morning coffee while enjoying the mountain view before a nice walk through the surrounding trees and stream. The hosts communication was very welcoming and they made the check-in and everything very easy. Overall we cannot say enough how great this property and the hosts are and highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be booking again in the future!

Perfect spot to house my bridal party!

I can't recommend this property enough! My spouse and I rented two Allenspark houses for our wedding party, and it truly made the weekend unforgettable! This house is a wonderful rustic mountain getaway, combined with elegant rooms and well-stocked common areas. We had a plumbing issue upon arrival, but TJ responded immediately and had a plumber to the property within half an hour or less. Things happen, but the way TJ responded made a potential problem virtually a non-issue. VERY impressed and grateful! The location is unbeatable, and my out of town friends got to see moose, mule deer, and even a bear right from the house. Gorgeous, comfortable, perfect stay. 10/10!!!
