Always the perfect trip!

We travel a lot. There are few places our family of four always agrees on going back too or all get excited about unitedly! This is the place. Always relaxing by the river. We love walking in town for meals. Great location to all things we enjoy doing. The host is amazing and easy to communicate with. We have been going for years and have found nothing we like better! So we plan on going every year in the future!

Lovely cabin. We enjoyed coffee every morning sitting by the Frying Pan River and we walked into Old Town in the evenings for dinner. We were convenient to hiking trails and the Roaring Fork River for rafting adventures. Highly recommend!!

The location is superb - short walk to wonderful restaurants and shops, but leaving is hard because of the fabulour Frying Pan just steps out the door. Already planning a return, it can't come quick enough!

Remarkable Refuge along the River

Terrific alternative to a boring hotel room. Perfectly kitted out cabin along the banks of the Frying Pan. Perfect for couple and kids or 2-3 friends. Walk to restaurants and shops in Basalt in 3 minutes. Easy drive to Snowmass and rapid transit parking lots. Loved our stay here as a base for skiing in the valley. Would be extraordinary in summer.

Fantastic location on the river!

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay at Christy’s cabin- you can’t beat the location. We enjoyed lounging by the river and walking into town to the Tipsy Trout. The kids loved the hammock and it was nice being able to fish right out your door. The cabin was very clean and cozy!

Perfect little retreat

We stayed at the Basalt cabin for three nights and it was perfect for the two of us. We loved the setting and the easy walk to restaurants in town was a plus. 1 short block and you are in town but feel like you are away from everything at the cabin and have privacy from the main house on the property. The owners are super friendly but do not bother you. Their dogs come for a visit daily and we loved that since we missed our dogs at home. You won't be disappointed. The cabin is clean, comfy and cozy and well appointed. We cannot wait to return.

Fall leaf peeping, fishing, painting and relaxing

This is a great location. Close to town but feels more remote. Easy walk to restaurants in town, short drives to fishing access and not too far from Aspen proper and Independence Pass. It is a small but comfortable cabin and nicely decorated. Picnic table and seating right out your door next to the creek. It is situated along the drive to the main house which you can see but felt private enough. They have very cute and friendly dogs who like to say hello. The freestanding gas fireplace heats up the cabin nicely on chilly evenings. There was both a Keurig and drip coffeemakers. The drip has a built in grinder so can take whole or preground beans. It was perfect for the two of us for a few days away to take in he sights, fish, paint and relax.
