Pet friendly with no charge for pets....but her pets on the property are not friendly or balanced,be careful. Cabins are very rustic circa 1960.1970. Clean but strange. Bathroom has a waterheater in it and you must turn your body so your knees do not hit it. No fire alarms...they are apart and thrown on a shelve. Towels....think sand paper...just the... More

FloAnn's is rustic, indeed, but it had everything we needed to be happy for three nights. We had 7 adults, 3 children and a dog and did just fine. The cottage is a work in progress and we could tell that there was some updating being done. The new wrap around Trex deck was lovely to have breakfast on. As... More

We chose this property as we picked up a buy one night get one night free deal and the reviews we came across were not all bad. We decided not to stay on the second night as it was terrible. The location of the property is fair and in close proximity to the attractions of Estes Park. We used cabin... More

I have had a very difficult time responding to this review. I've asked for help from TripAdvisor and gotten no answer. So I am doing it this way. I have been very honest and apologized for falling short of being a great host, and I am truly taking this seriously. This is my life, I just fell off the wagon... More

I stayed at one of Floann's cabins with my family the end of july. The cabin was just fine and it was situated up a steep gravel road, you could need a 4 x 4 to get up, we had a subaru so no problems. The cabin had great scenery but the one issue is it had mice in the... More

I need to address the mice issue. I live on the side of a mountain and I am not surprised to have mice. I have trap undertone furniture to catch the daring mice and have no problem keeping them under control. I so apologize for missing one. I would have been more than happy to change the bedding and clean... More

FloAnn's is charming and rustic, similar to a lake cabin. The cabins are situated in the mountains next to the Big Thompson River with wonderful views. In addition, it is pet-friendly, which was important to us. FloAnn even baked us cookies during our stay! We would definitely stay here again. If you want daily maid service and "perfect" everything, this... More

My husband booked this place as we were looking for something that was outside of Estes and pet friendly. He warned me that the photos on the website made it look rustic. We booked Cabin 3, which is a one bedroom unit. When we drove up we literally started laughing and continued to do so for about five minutes. That... More

Thank you so much for appreciating what the property is. The road will never change although I just spent $3000 to rebuild it which will not take the steep away. i say on my web site that I am on the side of a mountain and I had always hoped that would be clear that I am not on your... More

We stayed in cabin #4. Our cabin featured garage sale furniture, bare light bulbs, creaking floors and moldy walls. Don't turn around in the pre-fab shower or you will accidentally knock off the knob or shut off the water. (We're still trying to figure out what the torn pieces of cork were doing stapled to the wall.) Beware of hidden... More

Once again I will apologize for my very bad attitude. It will never happen again. I think I just needed a wake up call because I was slipping into a very bad place. Sometimes it is hard to keep up with damage. The bare light bulbs would fall into that category. They are fixed and will be faster in the... More

FloAnn approached our group about having our fire too big, but instead of simply asking us to reduce the size of the fire, she was very rude to us and asked where the button was to turn down the fire when we offered to reduce its size. Additionally, the cottage is not as advertised with three bedrooms, but rather one... More

I totally agree with you about calling the upstairs a loft. It truly never even occurred to me. Thank you because that is truly what it is. I am changing the wording on my site. The cottage has a queen sofa bed, queen bed in the bedroom down stains, two double beds in the loft upstairs. I count that sleep... More

I stayed at FloAnn's for 5 nights with my parents and my 2 teenage daughters. The cabins had everything you could need....dishes, pots and pans, glasses, etc. - microwave and tv with satellite...as far as that goes, it was a wonderful place! We stayed in cabin #2, which was advertised as a 3-bedroom, however the 2nd floor was more like... More

FloAnn's cottages are three nice cabins close to Estes Park. We stayed here for 2 nights and loved it. Very private. Our cabin didn't offer luxury (hot tub, fire place or other amenities), but was in midst of a large forested area and that was more important to us.
