"We enjoyed our stay (daughter Cheryl has "scouted" you out for us). it was good to get barb out and by the river. She so enjoys the sound of running water."

"We stayed at Idlewilde in early Sept and we loved it. The cabin we had was clean, comfortable, very nice, and the grounds were extremely well kept. The hot tub was great, the river was peaceful and 30 feet from our door. We were about 3 miles from downtown Estes so it was close enough for easy travel into town, but far enough to be quiet. It was more than I expected. The owners Donna and Lloyd are very nice and friendly, willing to help and give information any time. Donna even let us use her Safeway card for grocery discount. We cooked breakfast in our kitchen each morning. I would definitely come back and I highly recommend Idlewilde!"

"We just got back from our stay at Idlewilde and had a wonderful time. The cabin was very clean and well prepared for our stay. The property was just beautiful. We really enjoyed the tranquility of sitting by the river and observing nature. It was a perfect, peaceful getaway for us and we look forward to our next stay! Thanks Donna and Lloyd"

"What can I say...our time at Idlewilde was the best vacation by husband I have had in many years. We moved from Colorado in 1994 and I had not been back since 1996. What a blessing to have such a wonderful, calm and beautiful place to go to. It reminded us about what we loved - the river, the mountains, the wild life. Donna and Lloyd were amazing. We will be back next year - and we are already counting the days. Raul and Debie Pacheco"

": Idlewilde was just the right place to stay for a couple of days over Labor Day weekend. With the crush in Estes Park, it was great to come back to a restful cabin with a beautiful river just outside. "

"It was everything we hoped for and more. My two adult daughters and I chose to vacation in beautiful Estes Park and were praying that we had made a wise lodging selection. Idlewilde is in a beautiful setting. The cabins are charming and well kept. There's a fire pit and grills throughout. The jaccuzzi is awesome and was a big hit with my daughters. I cannot say enough about the hospitality. Lloyd and Donna made us feel at home. We travel several times a year and have seldom experienced this type of hospitality. I highly recommend Idlewide."

"Idlewilde by the River is the most relaxing place in Estes Park, particularly in cabins right next to the river such as Aloha. I never get tired of the rushing river roar and could sit right there for hours. the Claypool friendliness is another big plus at Idlewilde as they have much info about places to eat and things to do in the area. Can't see any reason to book anywhere else after staying several places over 6 trips between 1967 and 2008 but with last three times at Idlewilde"

"We had a great experience staying at Idlewilde. Mrs. Claypool was very helpful with places to eat and things to do in Estes park. Great location near everything in the area. We will return next time we are in Colorado which will be next summer."

"As usual, we had the best time. We look forward to visiting again next year. We love the natural setting and the cabins and grounds are impeccably kept. Thanks Lloyd and Donna for a wonderful vacation!"

"Another great time at Idlewilde by the River. It was peaceful and relaxing. We met nice people. We enjoyed the surroundings, the river, and the camp fires. We'll be back. Thank you Lloyd and Donna for friendly service."
