Hunting is permitted in Roosevelt National Forest on the east side of Estes Park. Elk that live in the National Park in the summer naturally migrate to the warmer, lower elevations of the National Forest for the winter. The Park permits no hunting within it's borders but relies on hunters in the Forest to thin their herds.

There are three times more elk in Estes than in Rocky Mountain National Park. We need more hunters to keep the elk in balance with the habitat.

Link to the hunting page in the Colorado Division of Wildlife web site for complete information.

Leave the fast lane, cross our covered bridge to simple serenity in a cozy cottage, suite or vacation home in towering pines along Fall River. Bask in hot tub bubbles. Warm to the scent and sizzle of a wood-burning fireplace. Fall asleep to the river's lullaby. Roam 30 acres adjoining Rocky Mountain National Park. Enjoy the serendipity of wandering wildlife and friendly gatherings in our library.
