I have to disagree with Lauren on the west side of Rocky. It is way less crowded than the east side, has great hiking trails, more diverse wildlife and the fishing in the Colorado river in the park is very good. We love Grand Lake. There are not as many shops as Estes but also not wall to wall people. As much as we have always loved Estes Park we have not gone back in about 5 years because of the crowds it has just gotten to expensive. Also Rocky Mountain NP will always be our favorite park.
