The Spotlight on The Estes Park Resort

Mountain Views, Music Vibes & Lakeside Comfort

Modern mountain charm meets serene lakefront living at The Estes Park Resort. Nestled on five scenic acres along Lake Estes, this resort-style hotel offers a peaceful retreat with stunning Rocky Mountain views, an on-site restaurant, and a full-service spa. Just a short drive from downtown Estes Park, it's a great base for music lovers looking to unwind after a show.

Each room comes with free WiFi, a microwave, and a refrigerator—perfect for late-night snacks. Enjoy evenings by the lakeside fire pits or grab a drink at the full-service bar with panoramic views. Whether you're here for a festival weekend or a one-night concert getaway, this resort offers the perfect mix of nature and nightlife access.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're just 1.5 miles from the Estes Park Convention and Visitors Bureau, making this a convenient spot if your event is happening nearby. After the music winds down, you’ll appreciate the quiet lakeside setting—ideal for recharging. The 4:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM check-out are pretty standard, but the chill vibe makes you feel unrushed. Getting around is easy with plenty of local taxi and rideshare options.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends planning a nature-meets-music weekend
- Solo travelers attending a bucket-list concert in Estes Park
- Couples making a romantic weekend of mountain views and live tunes
- Fans who want a peaceful place to recover post-show
- Budget-conscious music fans who want value with a view

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Waterfront Grille serves up casual fine dining with Rocky Mountain views—ideal for a pre-concert meal or post-show wind-down. While 24/7 room service isn’t available, rooms come with microwaves and fridges for your own snacks. Breakfast is available, so you can sleep in and still refuel after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t offer live music, you’re a short ride from downtown Estes Park’s bars and lounges. The hotel bar is a cozy place to start your evening with a glass of wine or local craft beer.

What People Say

Guests love the peaceful lakefront setting, clean and comfortable rooms, and the stunning mountain views. Many reviews highlight the relaxing vibe and friendly staff. The fire pits and spa are frequent favorites for post-event downtime.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the décor feels a bit dated in places, and the WiFi can be spotty at times. Parking can be a little tight during busy weekends, so plan to arrive early if you’re driving in.

The Bottom Line

If you're after a scenic, laid-back base with easy access to Estes Park’s music scene, The Estes Park Resort delivers comfort, charm, and killer views.

Perfect place for location, views,...

Liked: Everything. The staff, the location on the water, the comfortable beds, the food. And that we stayed 2 nights rather than only 1.
Disliked: Not sure I remember anything negative about this wonderful place!

Spectacular views!

Liked: Great place! The views are spectacular! The property is on Lake Estes and there is a 4 mile loop around the lake for walking or biking. There is a marina where you can rent paddle boards and kayaks close by. The restaurant has delicious food and the staff is very friendly. There are cute outs and other seating areas around the property. We did not have time to take advantage of the spa, but many guests said it was wonderful. It was a short drive to town. We would stay there again when visiting Estes.

Good

Liked: Liked the location, room and amenities
Disliked: I booked a room with Mountain View and then wanted to come earlier and the resort was able to find me a room which they assured me would be the same as what I had chosen. Instead I got a room with balcony facing the entrance of the resort with lots of people standing around and foot traffic rendering the balcony unusable and we had to keep our curtains on to avoid people looking into the room. Also, I was charged $200 more for the room in comparison to what I paid for a room with a view.

Was disappointing…. Screen door to...

Liked: The location has been great… come here every year for past 7 years
Disliked: Moved the handicapped parking areas out further to put in bigger circle driveRemoved old carpet with big ridges in it and put in nice new tile… but many many places to catch your shoes on the uneven places and trip!

Liked: Location was perfect. Staff were extremely nice and helpful. Room was great, and the view of the lake was great as well. The ice machine was broken, but didn’t hinder our stay! Would definitely recommend this place!
