Wow. I booked a stay in the Encantado cabin with my husband, my brother and my sister in law. We had a fabulous time. The location of the cabin is PERFECT. You can hear the river quietly from your room and you fall asleep listening to the gorgeous sounds of the forest around the cabin. The resort is about 8 minutes from town and 12ish minutes to RMNP. We saw some wildlife on the grounds- bunnies, squirrels, and elk. The cabin itself is so ADORABLE! Pinterest worthy! It's cozy and inviting, with a wonderful clean hot tub featuring great views of the stars on the porch and a there's a heater

After a perfectly nice 2018 visit, I booked a 2019 stay here on VRBO and it was a total mess of incompetence and malice. I arrived to find that the owner (Jayne) had double-booked, and was not able to accommodate me. That was already a huge bummer, as it was 8 pm on a weekend night and lodging in Estes isn't that easy to come by.
She was not at all apologetic and kept blaming me, the booking service, etc, when the reality is that she had to manually accept our booking and had just failed to update her calendar. She was also pretty unkind in telling us what she believed our next steps

I've been a guest at Dripping Springs for way over 10 years and obviously, I love it. If I wanted the Hilton or Marriott or fancy-dancy I'd go there, but I want rustic, laid-back, in the trees and near water. This is my happy place. Jayne and Oliver are the best!! I highly recommend it, even if it's for a weekend, but better to stay a week!

Great little B&B. It's a bit rustic, but well-cared for. You can tell the owners put a lot of love into the place. The rooms are small and old but they're clean and well maintained, which is more than you can say for some of the places around here.
Wifi was not great, but it was adequate (which, again, ranks it favorably compared to some of the accommodations nearby.) Bed was very comfortable. Rooms seem surprisingly well insulated, both temperature wise and sound wise. We didn't hear a peep from any of the rooms around us. Breakfast was fantastic, and the grounds are beautiful

This place is a hidden treasure!! My wife and I - and Dakota (our Labrador retriever) visited Dripping Springs this past week. It was the perfect getaway. We have traveled to CO for many years and have become a little spoiled. Here are our "must haves" when we visit. 1.) rustic cabin on river. 2.) privacy. 3.) dog friendly. 4.) fire pit Dripping Springs has all of these amenities and many more including private hot tub and 5 minutes from Estes and the entrance of RMNP. The management is friendly and very accommodating. We will definitely return for another visit.

This is place is definitely a place that I would return to. After personal greetings when checking in from the owners--we toured the well manicured grounds. Such beautiful, relaxing views by the river. We LOVED the hammock and the chairs set up along the river bank. We stayed in the Moon Seeker room--full of charm and character!! Clean, comfortable, and little extras like the sleep number bed and even a sound machine. Hot tub was amazing after a long day of hiking in the park. Janie's breakfast is delicious and served family style. Cozy and friendly mornings filled with info on what

People that complain about this place are just ridiculous. If you're doing a cabin in the mountains, chances are you want a secluded, bare minimum feel! Yes its small, but for two people, our cabin was perfect! Hot tub, grill, private fire pit and right on the river! The owners are always around to help or supply what you need! We waded in the river (wear shoes! ), roasted hot dogs over the fire, cooked on the grill, and spent hours in the hot tub looking at the stars. Perfect relaxing weekend! We are already planning our next visit!

The nicest little place on the river. The misses and I stayed at a cabin one night by chance. We had a. Wonderful stay and the breakfast was world class. We stayed d in a cottage one night and a cabin the next. I'm not sure which I enjoyed more. Thank you Janie and Oliver for A wonderful experience.

My husband and I stayed two nights here last August (I just learned about yelp...so that's why there is a delay in the review) and we were totally impressed by EVERYTHING. Our room, while small - but that's what we were looking for- was very warmly decorated and the bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was clean and all the towels smelled fresh. The layout felt like we were a million miles from the stress of the rest of the world with plenty of flowers and native plants, hanging baskets and small planned gardens around the property. Walking access to the river and plenty of hammocks and

I made reservations back at this place over a year ago but had to reschedule. We rescheduled for September of last year but our plans were unexpectedly cancelled due to the flooding, so I was very happy that we finally got to use our reservations this weekend. I was slightly disappointed that our room had changed from our first reservation and we were left to the Aspen room with no view or hot tub. However the owner, Janey, allowed us to use the hot tub next door the night we arrived as the room was vacant that night, so that was very nice. They also stayed open late for us as we arrived after

My wife and I stayed 2 nights and 1 day in the "Moon Seeker" cabin. It was a cozy little thing with a nice king size sleep number bed, bathroom, small fridge, and a hot tub on a private deck. the owners are very hospitable, and breakfast was filling and tasty. The grounds are well kept, and there is at least one good trail nearby, although we did not get a chance to check it out. Estes park is a 5 minute drive away on highway 34. I can't comment on price, as I made a point of letting my wife take care of the financials in order to avoid acute depression...

I had made my reservation here and was so looking forward to a nice peaceful vacation. Unfortunately, my son had a seizure and three days prior to our trip I had to cancel. They charged me IN FULL for the cost of the entire stay! That was $766 down the drain! This left a really bad feeling for me about this place and I had never even been there. My advice for this place is to avoid it and make your reservation somewhere else. There seem to be so many other places in this area to choose from.
