The Estes Park Local Marketing District, also known as Visit Estes Park, is an organization formed in 2009 for the purpose of advertising, marketing and promoting tourism in the Estes Park area through a Local Marketing District.

Voters in the Marketing District area approved forming the organization and voted to collect a 2% sales tax on short term stays in lodging establishments and private homes when used as short-term rental properties. Subsequent Intergovernmental Agreements between the Town of Estes Park and Larimer County, required by state law, confirmed the working agreement with the Local Marketing District.

Mission: We drive sustainable year-round economic growth by encouraging visitor demand.
