Newhard Chalet - Big House Convenient Location Great for Groups Families Friends

Great for multi-generational family gatherings or groups of friends.

The original Newhard Chalet, built by the Newhard family, was the first vacation home in Snowmass Village, built in 1967. The current Newhard Chalet is a more contemporary mountain house, built in 2000. The home is on three levels on 1/2 acre adjoining a green belt, with aspen and spruce trees framing the house. Lots of areas for spending time together as a group, but also spaces to get away and recharge.

Enter the Chalet into a great room with a comfy seating area around the fireplace with a wall-mounted television, a dining area with two oval tables with seating in captain's chairs for up to 20 people, and a large, very well-equipped kitchen, all with valley and mountain views. Guest half-bath on the main level. The master bedroom with its own deck and full ensuite bath is located off the living room. Entry from living/dining area to deck with gas barbecue and all-weather chairs and tables.

The upper level leads to a loft bedroom with 2 twins and a balcony loft with 2 twins, plus a bathroom with a shower. The lower level has 3 queen bedrooms, a family room, 2 full baths, and a washer/dryer. The family room opens onto a lower patio with a large hot tub.

Free high-speed WiFi.

Exterior video surveillance at entry.

TVs in the family room, living room, and master bedroom - the family room has a DVD player with a selection of videos.

All linens, towels, soaps, paper products, and laundry detergents are supplied. Extra supply of personal care products.

Please note that ski season is from late November to mid-April. The summer season is from mid-June to early September. Off-season rentals are available at reduced rates.

There is an additional pet fee - two dogs max, no other pets allowed.

Quiet, residential area, so no parties or large events, and the main guest in charge of the booking must be 30 or older.

Keywords: Contemporary House in the Rocky Mountains with the ability to sleep up to 12 people, with hot tub, near ski slopes, hiking/biking trails, golf, tennis, fishing, entertainment, and recreation center nearby. Close to Aspen and on the free shuttle and bus routes. Very comfortable. Family groups, friend groups, wedding guests, dog-friendly. Well-appointed kitchen,

Everything you need in a fabulous location

We loved our stay at Newhard Chalet. The house had a great layout for our group of 10 (6 adults and 4 kids). You can tell the owners are very thoughtful with so many kitchen supplies and labeled instructions throughout the house. The location was great - easy access to both Aspen and Snowmass. We will definitely be back!

Snowmass visit in July

We had a GREAT time at this roomy house. We appreciated the 2 living areas and having 4 full bathrooms the powder room since there were 9 of us comfortably staying here. The bocci court and the hot tub were both great. We walked into Snowmass Village along the trail while the 7 year old and his dad biked. We were amazed at how many garbage pick-ups there were (4th of July, Sunday morning, daily). Many thanks for a wonderful stay!

Amazing house and great location!

Our group loved this house! We stayed with a group of 12 and everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. It is right on the bus line too, with very easy access to all ski mountains and downtown Aspen. The photos also do not do this place justice, it’s beautiful and super cozy! Very clean and well stocked kitchen too. Highly recommend.

What a wonderful place to stay when coming to Snowmass (Aspen)

We had a great stay at the Newhard Chalet. It was comfortable, very clean, and with everything that we needed - comfortable beds, lots of shared space for reading, talking together, playing games, a very well equipped kitchen, a washing machine and dryer, strong wifi and a hot tub. The host was very responsive to our questions.The shuttle to Snowmass Village is just below the chalet and runs very frequently.Plus: the mountain views from the living room are beautiful.

Amazing Stay!

We stayed at this property for 5 nights to attend my nephews wedding held at Maroon Bells. The property was great with all the bedrooms and bathrooms we needed to house the family who traveled from Ohio and SC to attend. It was close to the town and activities, stores and restaurants. I highly recommend this property!
