About this property

Welcome to Blackhawk Cabins

Blackhawk Cabins offers a collection of traditional log cabins situated along the Fall River, just under 2 miles from Estes Park and less than 10 miles from the entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. The low-key setting provides easy access to natural attractions such as hiking trails and wildlife viewing, making it convenient for outdoor enthusiasts and families alike.

The cabins feature rustic interiors with pine paneling, full kitchens, and fireplaces, providing a cozy and practical environment for guests. Several reviews highlight the spaciousness and cleanliness of the cabins, with a friendly and attentive manager who adds to the welcoming atmosphere. Each cabin includes a private deck and access to a riverside hot tub, a popular spot for relaxation after a day of exploring.

While the property offers free Wi-Fi and parking, it does not provide air conditioning, a restaurant, or airport shuttle services, and it is not pet-friendly or accessible for guests with mobility needs. The quiet, smoke-free environment and kid-friendly spaces make it suitable for families or groups seeking a peaceful retreat near key regional landmarks.

The location supports convenient day trips to notable nearby sites such as Sprague Lake and the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center. With Denver International Airport approximately an hour and a half away by car, Blackhawk Cabins serves as a practical base for visitors planning to experience the natural beauty of the Rockies without sacrificing comfort.

Absolutely loved our stay at Blackhawk Cabins! The cabins were super clean and cozy—honestly some of the cleanest I’ve ever stayed in. You can really tell how much care goes into maintaining the place. The property itself is beautiful and peaceful, with plenty of space to walk around and even a little area for kids to play, which was a nice bonus. What really stood out, though, was the manager. It’s impressive that one person runs the whole place, and he does an amazing job. He’s very friendly and communicative, always letting you know if he’ll be away for lunch or out on a quick hike with his kids. You really get the feeling he cares about your stay. If you’re looking for a quiet, clean, and well-run spot to relax, I definitely recommend Blackhawk Cabins. We’ll be back for sure!

We enjoyed our brief stay here. I was worried about some of the negative reviews (such as cleanliness and ease (or lack) of checking in). Cabin 7 has been recently updated, and there were no issues at all with cleanliness. Further, check in was a breeze since we were emailed our door code one day prior.

Exactly what we needed: clean cabins with a good bit of space positioned close to Rocky Mountain NP and convenient to other areas of Estes Park. The cabin staff was responsive and helpful. We stayed two nights, but this would also be a good base for a longer stay.

We were a group of six people staying in three different cabins. Some were nicer than others, but all were good. The location is great for hiking in the Rocky Mountain National Park. Finally, as other reviewers have also pointed out, Joel, the manager is extremely helpful. He is an experienced hiker who made excellent suggestions adapted to our group, and a very nice guy overall.

I love these cabins! There are 10 to choose from and are all reasonably priced. The manager is super accommodating and is quick to make suggestions to make your vacation in Estes Park be the best ever! This place is down the street from the Stanley Hotel and the Rocky Mountain National park entrance is a 4 minute drive. Pets are allowed (with a fee) and all the cabins have fireplaces and kitchens. There is a hot tub also. I will definitely stay here again!

We LOVED our stay! Clean cabin with updated bathroom and kitchen appliances. Super friendly staff & easy check-in/out process. And the area is beautiful! This is definitely where we will be staying during our return trips to Estes.

We stayed in Cabin #2 and loved everything about it. The Cabin was clean and tidy. We loved the back deck, and used the gas grill to cook our dinner. It had more than enough room for our group of 4. We loved the wood burning fireplace and large table for playing cards and dice. The owner was happy to hear we used the Hot Tub, even in the rain. We will most certainly be back, as this was a great jumping off point to explore Rocky Mountain National Park.
