Shelly's is amazing. You get that rustic feel of being in a cabin in the wilderness, but with modern convenience. Great rooms with amazing beds, private hot tub out back and a great little kitchen. Each cabin also has a grill, which we use on every trip. Right next door to Shellys up the dirt road is a great hiking... More

My girlfriend and I escaped to Shelly's for a scrapbooking weekend. We could not have made a better choice! Just outside of Lyons and located in the canyon-it is very quiet and beautiful, we had no distractions, unless you count the scenery. We were able to check in with no issues, the owners were very informative and extremly kind. The... More

My husband recently surprised me with the most peaceful, relaxing, romantic trip to Shelly's Cottages. Escaping from our fast-paced Fort Lauderdale life, which includes four children, we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at Shelly's. The moment we stepped out of our vehicle I knew I was in heaven. The owners, Kim and Troy, greeted us at the door and... More

My husband and I went to Shelly's for our honeymoon. We had been looking to stay in CA but the cost went up far too quickly so we decided to look within our own state and we were very pleased to find Shelly's Cottages. We booked it immediately - we stayed in Cottonwood. We loved it so much that we... More

Upon arrival make sure that you ask about all of their "rules" for staying there. We made the mistake of sigining the agreement upon check-in and didn't receive a copy of all... More

We arrived at Shelly's in the early evening and loved our cottage. We also loved the hot tub, which is very private with a beautiful cottonwood next to it. However, during our first dip in the hot tub, the temperature went down almost ten degrees in an hour. We covered the tub hoping to return later, but a few hours... More

My husband and I have stayed at Shelly's several times. We actually do whatever it takes to save pennies and such year round in order to return. We have been there in nearly every season and my desktop photo on my computer at both work and home have a pictures I have taken there. The grounds are beautiful, the owners... More

My fiancé and I stayed here for a quick get-a-way. If I had to plan the trip all over again, I would have booked a Condo / Cabin in Estes Park. The room was nothing to write home about. Very simple but clean. The hot tub was very refreshing; however, I would have preferred it to be inside the cabin.... More
