We're on the other side of the mountain from Estes Park, but the road through Rocky Mtn National Park is closed in the winter. With all the snow we've had this year, we're hoping for a Memorial Day opening, but it's unlikely.

We are open all year, accessible from highway 40 to 34. The road stops at Grand Lake in the winter.
