No pictures (which are fantastic) can do justice to the quality of this home. The owner is the most organized and thoughtful of all VRBO's we have used. We did not want to leave. Can't wait for our next visit!

We really enjoyed this property, and the owner and property manager were both very nice and swiftly handled a small issue upon arrival. Both Snowmass or Aspen are a short and easy 15–20-minute drive. Nearby Whole Foods, City Market and multiple shops a short 5 minute drive, or downtown Basalt has several wonderful places to eat and shop. Great layout for family to all be near each other, but in different groups too. Kitchen has small seating area with a TV and great room is nearby with large dining room table and large couch and chairs by fireplace. Downstairs TV area great for kids to escape for a bit or to watch a movie. Beautiful views. Comfortable and clean beds/sheets. Well stocked kitchen made it easy to have extra meals. Large and small oven upstairs in main kitchen and a 2nd oven in downstairs bar area if needed. We had 6 people sleep very comfortably.

Our total experience from initial contact and booking to check out was seamless. The Owner and Manager were both attentive and very interested in receiving any advice for improvements — we could not think of a single one in addition to what the property already offered. If you are seeking a fabulous residence with superb views, exceptional services and a very comfortable, accommodating feel, this home is perfect for your friends and family. It’s unique location combines a sense of isolation with easy accessibility to the ski slopes and the town of Basalt. The common areas are well designed and appointed, providing sophisticated amenities together with an informal vibe and plenty of space for relaxation and socializing. The bedrooms are generous, with ensuite bathrooms, comfortable KS beds (one bedroom has two single beds) and sporting excellent comforters and generous bathroom linens and supplies. There is ample parking for many vehicles (at one time we had five easily parked at the rear of the property) and there is an outdoor electrical socket that one of my sons used to recharge his electric vehicle. The laundry room is capacious, with two large units (washer and dryer) and thoughtfully providing a variety of detergent options. If you have work to do, there is a generous office. with direct access to the deck which has an eight person hot tub. It is not simply a holiday home, it has all the attributes of a real family home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and recommend it highly for anyone wanting to combine comfort, spaciousness, accessibility and a family atmosphere.

From the moment we walked into this magnificent house with shouts of joy, to the time we sadly closed the door for the final time, we were in awe of the offerings of this home. It was the sixth annual ski trip to the Rockies for me and I can say without question, this was the best VRBO or AirBNB I have ever rented. All of the bedroom accommodations were excellent, each with a comfortable matteress and a well appointed bathroom that gave each of us quiet comfort and privacy. But, it is the luxurious common areas of the house that really makes it shine. The gourmet kitchen with all Viking appliances was phenomenal! I did most of the cooking, and I appreciated the high quality cookware and cutlery. The Webber grill was also exceptional for steaks, salmon, thresher shark, and chicken. The great room consisting of the dining and living room was an elaborate place to gather at the end of the day, in front of the fire. My group was there to ski, and went every day to Snowmass, Aspen Highlands and Mountain, an easy drive to each. We kept our skies and boots in the heated garage for easy loading to our vehicle in the morning. We started each day in the kitchen with coffee from two different coffee makers, and also made oatmeal, eggs, fruit, and cereal on various mornings. The convenience of the kitchen made it easy to get out the door in an hour. Everyday after skiing we stopped at the City Market or Whole Foods in Basalt for our dinner items and other groceries, then drove a short distance to our mountain retreat. A highlight of every night was relaxing in the huge, 8 person hot tub, soothing the muscles, and getting us ready for our dinner feast. Tom, our host, and the property manager Victor were always a phone call away. When we had any questions or problems they were handled quickly and efficiently. This was a most memorable week of skiing, comfort, and joy that I will not soon forget. Tom is a fine, friendly man and I thank him for providing his incredible home for me and my friends. I hope that I can come back for another stay during a future ski season, or in the summer with my family. I highly recommend this extraordinary VRBO rental to YOU!

This property is more amazing then the pictures demonstrate. Super large kitchen which accommodates large crowds. Lots of space for families to fellowship with one another or escape for solitude. We came to Basalt on a ski trip meeting other friends who stayed at a different residence. We hosted 4 families for dinner. It was easy to have all of us together. One big challenge we faced was seating everyone, so we ate in groups to allow everyone to have at seat at the table. We were not allowed to use the garage for our visit which would have been nice with all the ski gear. I think this is a temporary issue. Regardless of the few things mentioned above, it truly was an amazing, jaw-dropping property, with gorgeous views. It was a delight to spend our vacation here!
