About this property

Marble Lodge on Beaver Lake Retreat Campus

Spectacular views of high alpine peaks and cliffs in every direction from this 5000 square foot log lodge and retreat center overlooking Beaver Lake, make this the perfect place for weddings, family vacation, reunion, or other small group gatherings. Sleeps 24 in beds, huge hot tub pool holds 20, fireplaces, solarium, library/meeting room, alpine lodge ambiance, huge kitchen, and commercial refrigerators are perfect for group meal preparation and family style dining, yet many cozy nooks allow choice between solitude or togetherness. Great southern exposure, lots of glass and several decks provide a visual splendor from every room in every season.

Wilderness hiking and skiing trails abound at the doorstep but you are only an hour away by car from Aspen, it's shopping, skiing, and nightlife. Truly an ideal and affordable, yet distinctive vacation rental.

Buyout Lodge ideal for groups 25+

Rustic housing with fantastic location. Our family needed to be together in a mountain setting. This place was just what we needed. Lodge itself needs some definite attention.

Save your money & book elsewhere. Recently had my intimate wedding at this property, 25 guests (21 "stayed"). We were excited for our stay, an incredible weekend celebrating with friends & family at a rustic cabin in the mountains. But we experienced the opposite of incredible. This property is not on the lake, nor does it even have access to the lake, which the owner told us in a phone call. The check-in process isn't one, you call the property owner from a landline which we attempted several times without answer leaving us without phone service (as expected) & without wifi because there is absolutely no other info provided. The rooms were disgusting. There were used bars of soap in the showers & on the sinks in every bathroom with hair everywhere. The sheets were dirty, strands of hair between them & other evidence that people had slept in those sheets. It seemed that the kitchen refrigerator hadn't been wiped down in years. The place was straight up nasty. The owner then showed up in the basement, unannounced. We told him nothing had been cleaned, showed him even. He said, "Just write everything down & I will be back tomorrow." So we did all of the laundry ourselves. Spent our first evening washing 14 sets of sheets & 20+ sets of towels, which are mostly stained beyond repair. Both hottubs weren't working, so not sure what the club fee paid for. When it comes to the actual sleeping arrangements, don't be fooled by the number it says can sleep in beds, because they aren't beds. They are 3 inch sleeping mats stacked 6 high on top of each other. So this listing actually sleeps only 14 in beds. We attempted to shower, but it leaked through to the basement, making the upstairs bathrooms unusable. The temperature in the bathrooms read 97 degrees, which heated the attached bedrooms like saunas. The "cleaners" showed up at one point and stated, "I don't know how to do laundry." The amenities listed are not accurate (ie. no canoes) and the wifi cannot support the guest count. You can't shut the living room screen door properly which let mice & chipmunks inside. The cleaners & owner then showed up 2 hrs prior to checkout & wouldn't respect a request to leave until checkout time. The owner seems to be worried about losing his business license due to noise complaints than the experience of his guests. At one point he said, "Well life isn't always perfect and this isn't the Ritz. We don't put mints on your pillows." Will not recommend this place.

Not usually one to write reviews like this, but...
Overall, the location and views from the property are absolutely serene and stunning. We appreciated having so much space available to us as we were a party of 22 celebrating 3 birthdays. Vince, the owner, was also very communicative in giving details about the property. While we enjoyed the weekend as a whole, I wanted to call out a few problems with our stay. First, the lodge was dirty as other reviewers mentioned. This is not to comment on the rustic decor which we were aware of and enjoyed - but everything needed a thorough cleaning (including the feces/dead flies we found in the club room downstairs). Second, the wifi was not working and there wasn't any urgency in trying to fix it. I myself tried to restart the router with the owner present to no avail. We would have appreciated more effort to repair the internet as we were not expecting to be without it - especially without cell phone service in the area. One of our guests had to drive 40 minutes to Carbondale to take an online exam after initially being under the impression that he would be able to take his exam using the Lodge's wifi. Being unplugged was fine - wifi just shouldn't be listed as an amenity. Third, a ceiling leak in the downstairs bathroom prevented us from using the top 3 bathroom showers. With 22 guests in attendance, this is unacceptable. The owner told us that it is very hard to get a plumber out to the location; however, he was aware of the leak prior to our arrival and expressed no urgency again to resolve this issue. Lastly, a Vrbo rental is supposed to be a "home away from home". We did not feel this way as the owner made unexpected visits throughout our stay. We were aware of the hot tub checks in the mornings; however, there was one instance where the owner entered without permission to remind us of the noise ordinance that was not yet in effect. We were aware of this and did not appreciate the intrusion of privacy. When he came to check the shower leak, he took one of our snacks and a beer outside on the deck without permission. This is completely unprofessional. Like I mentioned, the owner is a nice guy. However, I think the concept of Vrbo is not represented well here. I would highly suggest visiting his website for the lodge to ensure you are his ideal guest (not mentioned in the description). I've also seen some defensive responses in prior reviews - please be aware we are simply explaining our experience in this business transaction.

NYE Celebration!
Our group arrived in Marble during a once-in-a-decade snowstorm. Vince was there late on Friday night plowing the roads of Marble for us. Because the driveway was so steep and covered in about a foot of snow, he offered to shuttle all 20 of our guests and our luggage up to the house in his own truck. He went above and beyond to make sure we all got in the house safely. His communication beforehand was very helpful as well. This is absolutely a rustic stay; the property and views are incredible, but you should know going in this is an older property with not many new updates. We knew this beforehand and therefore did not have any false expectations, and as such we had a wonderful time!! Thank you, Vince! We will be back!
