Always the perfect trip!

We travel a lot. There are few places our family of four always agrees on going back too or all get excited about unitedly! This is the place. Always relaxing by the river. We love walking in town for meals. Great location to all things we enjoy doing. The host is amazing and easy to communicate with. We have been going for years and have found nothing we like better! So we plan on going every year in the future!

Best Location

Lovely cabin. We enjoyed coffee every morning sitting by the Frying Pan River and we walked into Old Town in the evenings for dinner. We were convenient to hiking trails and the Roaring Fork River for rafting adventures. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful

The location is superb - short walk to wonderful restaurants and shops, but leaving is hard because of the fabulour Frying Pan just steps out the door. Already planning a return, it can't come quick enough!

Remarkable Refuge along the River

Terrific alternative to a boring hotel room. Perfectly kitted out cabin along the banks of the Frying Pan. Perfect for couple and kids or 2-3 friends. Walk to restaurants and shops in Basalt in 3 minutes. Easy drive to Snowmass and rapid transit parking lots. Loved our stay here as a base for skiing in the valley. Would be extraordinary in summer.

Fantastic location on the river!

Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay at Christy’s cabin- you can’t beat the location. We enjoyed lounging by the river and walking into town to the Tipsy Trout. The kids loved the hammock and it was nice being able to fish right out your door. The cabin was very clean and cozy!

Trout fishing!

Fantastic spot to fish the Frying Pan. The location was perfect, right on the river but still a block from town. The hosts were great and their puppy CJ was a joy to have come visit us.

About the host

Hosted by Christy Clettenberg

Host profile image
We are longtime locals and love calling Basalt home. It's the best of all worlds to be able to walk into town for dining/entertainment and then to sleep to the sounds of the river.

Why they chose this property

Lodge at River's Edge was purchased and extensively remodeled in 2015. It is a family owned and operated business. We take pride in providing luxurious accommodations along with the beautiful surroundings. No where else in this Valley are you able to find a riverfront setting where the river literally runs past your front door. Plus you are only a 1/2 block from downtown Basalt. It's the best of both worlds. You can enjoy cocktails on the riverfront terrace and then walk into Basalt for great dining and music.

What makes this property unique

It is located on the banks for the Frying Pan River. You can literally fly fish from your front door.
