Riverside Cabin
Fish Directly from the Cabin

We challenge you to find anywhere to stay that is closer to the river than this classic knotty pine cabin that sleeps 4 comfortably. You can fish just steps from your fully enclosed front porch along the Thompson River. Wake up to the gentle sounds of water just feet from your cabin or enjoy evening cocktails as you BBQ the perfect meal in your choice of propane or charcoal grills. This cabin has been fully redecorated for your tasteful Rocky Mountain experience.
This one-bedroom classic cabin sits on the edge of the Thompson River and has been completely redecorated and upgraded. This cabin is designed to accommodate a maximum of 4 guests and features 2 queen-size beds. We believe in the “everything included” model for your stay with us. Everything from linens, toiletries, spices, and your own propane BBQ to make your stay enjoyable. Enjoy Wifi, a smart Roku TV for streaming, and a Keurig Coffee maker. There is a community hot tub and a large shoreline for fly fishing or river recreation. For not much more than the price of a hotel, you can stay in paradise and truly have a vacation that you will remember.
Located approximately 5 minutes from the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park and 10 minutes from downtown Estes Park, Riverside is part of 13 cabins at Idlewild by the River that were the original workforce housing for the workers who built the infrastructure for the National Park. Be part of Rocky Mountain history and lore when you call this cabin your base camp for your Rocky Mountain Adventures.
We also own the neighboring property called River Spruce, so feel free to see our reviews there. We hope you will love this gorgeous classic mountain cabin at Idlewild by the River.
