Historic House at Braeside 24-ZONE3700

Welcome to a retreat in nature where you’re surrounded by mountain majesty: the House at Braeside - a historic home nestled into the hills surrounding Rocky Mountain National Park.

Our four bedroom three bathroom gem was built in 1920 by Arne Oldberg, a pianist and composer who established the Rocky Mountain Music Festival on this large tract of land. A professor at Northwestern University’s school of music for forty years, Arne turned the summer residence into a year-round home where three generations of the Oldberg Family occupied the House for more than a century. In the middle part of the 20th century luminaries such as composer and pianist Sergei Rachmaninoff and contralto Marian Anderson were welcomed to the Cabin.

Enjoy refined cabin living with modern comforts, including plenty of room to spread out after a day in nature. Enjoy a drink on the front porch, or retreat to the spacious deck with views of Longs Peak. When you’re ready to head inside, the dark wood walls of the living room will envelop you in the House’s history, as countless others have rested their bodies and minds after a long day of exploring.

We welcome you and your family to enjoy all the House at Braeside has to offer, including easy access to the entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park (just 2 minutes up the road: no need to traverse a busy downtown Estes Park), the facilities of the YMCA, and numerous points outside the Park.

The House at Braeside sleeps 8 in four bedrooms (first floor king, second floor has two bedrooms with queen beds, and another bedroom with twin beds) and can accommodate an additional 2 guests in the living room. This is the perfect place for your family and friends.

Come stay during the winter and spend your days sledding, snowshoeing or cross country skiing. Return to the house and warm up with a mug of hot chocolate by the fire place.

If you need additional space this property has a guest cabin that sleeps two. When rented with this property it will be discounted. Ask for more information.

This home is managed by Rocky Mountains Property Services, a family owned and operated business local to Estes Park.
