We just returned from a weeks stay at Glacier Lodge with our three grandchildren. We couldn't have chosen a better location for exploring all that Estes Park and Rocky Mountains has to offer. Our two bedrom cabin sat directly along the rushing Big Thompson river. Perfect location. The owners and staff were friendly and helpful and the grounds were pristine.... More

Our friends have stayed at Glacier Lodge for awhile now and recommended it to us. It's now our new Memorial Day tradition (for two years now). The property is wonderful. My 5-year-old daughter has a blast in the pool, running around the grass and "up the mountain", and with the pony rides. The cabin we stay in is older but... More

If you enjoy staying in a cabin with the sound of rushing water just outside your door, then Glacier Lodge is the perfect place for you. With a limited number of cabins of varying sizes, easy proximity to both Estes Park and RMNP, guided horseback tours, and a host of other amenities, Glacier Lodge is truly a gem. Our one-bedroom...

Our family of 4 spent 6 nights at the Glacier Lodge. This was our first trip to the Rocky Mountains with our family. We have boys 9 & 7 who love the outdoors. This was a perfect spot for us. Less than 1 mile from the park entrance, right on the river in a quiet area. We did not have... More

Glacier Lodge was a great choice for our family's trip out to Estes. We wanted a cabin to act as home base while we explored downtown Estes and Rocky Mountain National Park, and the cozy cabin right on the river (we chose Beaver Creek), with a full kitchen provided that perfectly. My 6 year old loved going to the playground... More

This was our first vacation as a couple and we could not of had a better time. Our cabin was cozy, affordable and the deck overlooking the river was beautiful. Being able to walk to the stables and ride was an added benefit. We most definitely want to come back in the summer time when they have all their activities.... More

We've been doing an annual pilgrimage to Glacier Lodge since 2007, together with a dozen families. The property is great for outdoor as well as structured play, convenient to Rocky Mountain National Park, and comfortable. Dave Ranglos and his family are superb hosts. Highly recommended.

Glacier Lodge provides so many activities for families that we did not get to do them all. Playground , swimming, basketball , and lots of other games were available. Lots of kids for our grandchildren to play with .

This is a marvelous property located just outside of Estes Park. Our family has now stayed here I believe on 10 occasions. It has a tremendous family atmosphere, and our kids have always loved it. The accomodations are nice and clean, and the owners are always quick to address any issues. Very close to the entrance to RMNP. I highly... More
