Welcome to Camelot!... In Arthurian History, known as the place where King Arthur held his meetings of the Knights of the Round Table. The term is also defined as “ a glittering place of romance and optimism”.
The house was built in 1938, and was purchased by our parents 35 years ago. They had a wonderful 64 year marriage with a strong foundation of optimism and romance! We grew up visiting Estes Park for the past 60 years. We have always loved the majesty of Longs Peak and Mount Meeker and the haunting sound of the elk bugling across the valley. We have the fantastic opportunity to observe many kinds of wildlife pass through, graze and rest on the property. The house has provided a wonderful space for our family to celebrate holidays and come for a respite from our busy lives. We fondly call it the Napping House. Over the past year we have done an extensive refresh utilizing both generations of family memorabilia as well new fixtures, furniture and bathrooms. We are now sharing our home with other families. We hope that you will find that it is a place to make life time memories and enjoy the majesty of the Rocky Mountains and the charm of Estes Park.

We had a fabulous time here in Estes Park with our adult children. We loved the visits to this yard from the Elk, Mule Deer, many birds and Chipmunks. The house was perfect and well stocked. We love the game room and spectacular views! Wish we could stay a month!

Thanks for the memorable vacation! We all enjoy this area and the proximity to the precious town of Estes Park. We attended the Rooftop Rodeo and saw the BEST PARADE with Horses, Queens, Music and Friendly Folks. The view out the windows was fabulous…loved the furnishings and decorations…the kids liked the game room…We enjoyed watching the Elk,
This is a wonderful Camelot in a magical forest that fosters wonderment and togetherness….

Camelot was magical for our family. We had both our daughters and spouses and kids from 1-12. They about wore us out on the swing…it was wonderful for them. The views from every room- WOW! So comfortable- remodeled in the right spots but still rustic cabin look.
Thank you for the sharing of your family home- much love felt here.
