Very clean, very peaceful. Perfect location between Aspen, Marble and Glenwood springs. Be sure to follow the check in steps, meaning you want to arrive in the day time. Definitely missed having wifi as you needed to drive into Basalt to do any research.
The location of the cabin is great! Great access to the Ruedi Reservoir and Frying Pan River. Place could be a bit cleaner as there is a bit of a mice problem, but not something I can complain too much about. Would still recommend as the cabin is nice spot to get away into nature.
This is a beautiful property and location. Home was awesome. We had a wonderful stay and everything we needed. The only problem and the only reason for not giving the rating all fives is that we did not have hot water the whole time we were there. However, they did compensate us for that. We knew that there was no cell phone service and no land line so we were fine with that except when we had no hot water there was no way to contact management company to let them know until we drove into town so we could text them. And then they thought they had it fixed but it wasn’t and again, we would have had to drive someplace that had cell phone service. We would stay here again for sure because it is a beautiful home and they did at least try to get it fixed and did compensate us some for the inconvenience.

The cabin was vey nice.. it needs maintenance the water heater doesn’t work right.. and the cleaning lady doesn’t do a good job at all ..
Very comfortable stay. Lovely location and very pretty views on the property and traveling to the property. The kitchen is well equipped to make food. The lack of WiFi was a bummer especially since there is no cell phone service near the cabin.
Unfortunately, we were unable to safely access the property this weekend. Although the listing stated that 4WD was required, the road was completely unmaintained and extremely icy to the point that our 4WD vehicle began sliding backwards down the hill.Additionally, there was no cell service or Wi-Fi available, and one member of our group slipped and was injured while attempting to walk down the driveway due to the icy conditions hindering the rest of their weekend. Because the property was not safely accessible and the conditions were not adequately disclosed in the listing, we did not feel it was safe to stay. We are requesting a full refund due to these safety concerns. We understand weather isunpredictable, but the lack of road maintenance and safety disclosure made the property inaccessible despite following the listing's requirements.Please let us know how you'd like to proceed. Thank you.
We stayed here to ski a few days in Aspen. The cabin is just under an hour away, and it was perfect. Spacious and comfortable, and much more affordable than the lodging closer to the resorts. We would have loved to stay longer.
Great property overall and a good option if you’re looking get disconnected from phone and internet. My wife and daughter enjoyed the stay and we’d definitely come back.
Loved the location, the views, and proximity to the reservoir for paddle boarding! The cabin was great although the downstairs smelled a bit like sulfur when we first arrived it aired out pretty quickly...would like to see the two downstairs bedrooms updated. Thank you we will be back!
Had a great experience overall. Loved getting off the grid. The property manager was quick to answer questions, and the stove had a log warming up when we arrived, which was so nice 🙌 definitely plan on coming back 💯
