Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Estes?
The best area to stay in Estes is the village center, particularly along the main thoroughfare of Elkhorn Avenue.

This area is the heart of Estes, offering easy access to shops, restaurants, and local attractions. Elkhorn Avenue is lined with storefronts, and many accommodations here provide direct views of the surrounding mountains and the nearby river. It's a very walkable area, making it convenient for exploring on foot.

Families often find the village center ideal due to the proximity to attractions like the Estes Park Riverwalk, which offers a pleasant stroll alongside the Big Thompson River. There are also numerous family-friendly dining options and ice cream parlors within a short walk.

For couples seeking a more tranquil experience, staying slightly removed from the busiest part of Elkhorn Avenue, perhaps on a side street or closer to the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park, provides a quieter setting.
When is the best time to go to Estes?
The best time to go to Estes is during the shoulder seasons of spring (late April to early June) and fall (September to October) for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

During these times, the weather is generally mild, with comfortable temperatures ideal for outdoor activities like hiking and exploring. You'll find the natural scenery particularly striking, with wildflowers blooming in spring and vibrant foliage in the fall. This period is ideal for couples seeking a peaceful retreat or for solo travelers looking to connect with nature without the peak season rush.

Summer (July and August) is also a popular time, offering the warmest weather and full access to all park facilities and activities. However, it's also the busiest, with larger crowds and higher accommodation prices. Families often find summer ideal for vacationing, as children are out of school, and the warmer temperatures are superb for enjoying the many outdoor adventures available.

For those interested in winter sports or a quiet, snowy escape, December through March offers opportunities for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and viewing winter wildlife.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival.
