A fun, cute place with all the amenities you can ask for. Very convenient to all kinds of outdoor activities in Basalt and Aspen. Lovely to be right on the Roaring Fork River. Easy check-in, and if you are staying longer than we did, you will have a full-size washer and dryer.

This location was great. Very peaceful. Right next to the river which was really nice to see and hear. It was perfect for my wife and I to stay at. We had a hot tub but we didn't have time to use it. Our host was very nice and made sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend. Close to Glenwood Springs and Aspen.

Magical Location
Stefan and Alexandra were lovely and friendly hosts, their two dogs were absolutely adorable. I felt so safe on their property, and so incredibly comfortable; the bedroom was amazing, with a visual flickering fireplace, king size bed, very comfortable guest mattress if you have an additional person. The location was a rare property right on the river. You can hear the road but it's not a problem,. You can sit by the river near the pine trees, very beautiful!

Stefan and Alexandra Are amazing Hosts! We chose their place for many reasons, location, private residence, hot tub, not a generic hotel stay!Well it met all our expectations and exceeded them!! We loved staying at their property, it’s a beautiful property right on the River, the unit/house you stay in is separate from their house and private! You get your own hot tub outside to take in the stars at night! The accommodations were perfect, beautifully decorated, very clean, fully stocked kitchen laundry and bathroom! Everything you need to live like you at home!!! Thank You guys!!Anyone wanting to stay in this area will not be disappointed!!!!

Absolutely loved our stay here! The location is perfect—super convenient for exploring Basalt, Carbondale, Glenwood Springs, and Aspen. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some—loved that it was stocked with all the essentials like coffee, tea, paper towels, and even sweeteners. The king bed was so comfy, and the bathroom was surprisingly spacious. Really appreciated the AC as it was unseasonably hot while we were there.If you’re into biking, this place is ideal—it’s right next to the Rails to Trails path. Plus, it’s peaceful and private, surrounded by nature, with relaxing chairs by the river. We spent a lot of time just unwinding outside, birdwatching and enjoying playing with the hosts dogs, Spanky and Sassy.Also, shoutout to the blazing fast internet and big-screen TVs—streaming was seamless. The appliances were top notch. The fridge is huge, the Keurig and air fryer were nice touches, and having a dishwasher, washer, and dryer made cleanup a breeze.The hosts were super friendly and thoughtful—really made us feel welcome. Can’t recommend this place enough!

We absolutely loved this property. We felt like we were out in the wild of Colorado, while still being very close to Carbondale. The property is beautiful with the River on one side and ponds on the other side. I loved sitting by the river having my coffee in the morning. Our hosts, Alexandra and Stefan, were amazing and were there if we needed anything. The place was stocked with everything you would need. It felt so homey and was very clean. Definitely will be back!!!

Stay on the Roaring Fork River in Colorado
The unit is beautifully decorated in different shades of blue. It is situated on the Roaring Fork River and is peaceful and private.Stefan and Alexandra are great hosts and respond immediately to any request.It is close to world class skiing in Aspen, gold medal trout fishing right out the door, and the Rio Grande Trail that runs from Glenwood Springs to Aspen is just up the hill.
