Come experience fall in Estes Park and make **Hotel Estes** your home base for your mountain getaway. We hope to see you soon! ❤️🍁

🍂❄️ Save 15% on an Off-Season Weekday Escape to Estes Park!

Some of our favorite months in Estes Park are the quieter ones. The crowds thin out, the mountains feel peaceful, wildlife is still abundant, and you can often find some of the best lodging values of the year.

And the holidays are especially beautiful! ✨ From mid-November through December, Estes Park lights up for the season, making downtown walks, cozy dinners and mountain evenings feel a little extra magical.

Hotel Estes and the town of Estes Park are open year-round, and we’d love to be your home base for an off-season getaway.

🍂 Fall festival season is here in Estes Park! 🍁🏔️

The Autumn Gold Festival is September 26–27, 2026, bringing a full weekend of live music, food, drinks and family fun to Bond Park in downtown Estes Park! The festival runs Saturday from 11 a.m.–6 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m.–5 p.m.

These photos are from last year’s festival, and we’re looking forward to doing it all again!

Fall in Estes Park lasts well beyond one weekend. 🍁 We have lots of fun festivals and events throughout September and October, along with elk rut, cooler mountain weather and, of course, the changing leaves.

The trees aren’t at peak just yet, so there’s still plenty of fall color to come! If busy festival weekends aren’t your thing, sneak away for a weekday stay instead.

September and October weekdays are one of our favorite times to enjoy Estes Park—with quieter crowds, crisp mornings, beautiful scenery and plenty of time to explore. ❤️

Come experience fall in the Rockies and make Hotel Estes your home base!

September skies in Estes Park. 🏔️☁️

We may not be at peak fall color quite yet, but this time of year has a beauty all its own. Cooler days, dramatic mountain skies, quieter weekdays, and hints of fall starting to settle into the valley.

It’s a pretty wonderful time to sneak away to Estes Park before the leaves really begin to change. 🍂

Come stay with us at Hotel Estes and enjoy a little September mountain time.

🦌🍂 It’s elk rut season in Estes Park!

One of our favorite times of year has officially arrived. The elk are bugling, wandering around town, and apparently stopping by Hotel Estes to check out the flowers! 🌼😂

September and October are such a special time to visit — crisp mountain air, changing leaves, incredible wildlife, and beautiful days in Rocky Mountain National Park. You truly never know where you’ll spot an elk around here!

If you’re visiting during the rut, remember these guys are wild (and the bulls are especially protective this time of year), so always admire them from a safe distance. 🦌

Come experience fall in Estes Park with us! We hope to see you soon. ❤️🏔️

🦌 Well… looks like we had a special guest stop by Hotel Estes this week!

Our amazing Head Housekeeper, Lulu, captured this video of an elk casually making its way through the Hotel Estes parking lot earlier this week. Just another day in Estes Park! 😂🏔️

And while we're giving credit where it's due, we have to give Lulu a little shout-out too. ❤️ She has been with us since around when we purchased Hotel Estes in 2012, and she does an incredible job helping take care of our property and our guests year after year. We're very lucky to have her — and apparently she makes a pretty great wildlife videographer, too! 📹🦌

September is such a magical time in Estes Park. The elk rut is underway, bugles can be heard around town, and you truly never know when one of these guys might wander by.

Come see us at Hotel Estes and experience one of the most special times of year in the Rockies!

And remember: as fun as it is to see elk this close to town, always give them plenty of space and enjoy them from a safe distance.

🍂 Can we let you in on an Estes Park secret? October is seriously underrated. 🏔️

These photos were all taken last October right here in Estes Park — and this is why we love this time of year so much. ❤️

September may be famous for fall in the Rockies, but October brings its own kind of magic. Crisp mountain mornings, lingering fall colors, elk wandering through town, beautiful hiking weather, incredible sunsets and a little more room to slow down and enjoy it all. 🦌🍁

And one of the best parts? October is quieter than our peak summer and September season, making it a wonderful time for a spontaneous mountain getaway.
Spend the morning exploring Rocky Mountain National Park, grab lunch and wander through downtown Estes Park, watch for elk in the afternoon, and finish the day with a Colorado sunset like this. 🌄

Hotel Estes has great October availability, and you can find our best offers when you book directly through our website.

Don't think fall ends with September. Come experience a quieter side of Estes Park this October. 🍂🏔️
