The house was set in a private, spacious, quiet neighborhood, yet convenient to all amenities. The backyard has a small, fenced-in area where you can let your dog go off leash, which was a great benefit not found in most rental homes. There is a small babbling brook in the backyard near the firepit that creates a peaceful, relaxing setting. We even had wild turkeys visiting one morning. A spacious place for large families with beautiful log accents. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.

Its very close to shops and restaurants, has lots of outdoor space, a dog run/fenced area outside, and was so warm even though it was freezing outside!... the property was amazing. We would definitely stay there again.

Fantastic Stay for Visiting Aspen

We had a group of 8 up here this past weekend and the stay was phenomenal, we actually decided to have family dinners at the property rather than eating out. Kitchen and dining space are ample for a group of 8, sleeping arrangements were perfect, enough bathrooms to go around before and after skiing, and the living room/game room are a perfect spot to hang out after spending the day on the mountain.

Great property and stay

This is an amazing property in a great location. The owner was very helpful. We were 7 adults, 1 - 12 yr. old., and a dog. The house is very large with plenty of space to spread out and we all had an amazing time - thank you Adam for making this property available.

Bday getaway

The pictures don't do it justice. It was spacious, clean, and gives the homey log cabin vibe, and the location was perfect. Walking distance to plenty and an easy drive to Aspen! Could not have asked for a better place to stay and the host, Adam, was super friendly and responsive. We'll definitely be back!

First, and very uplifting is the gorgeous setting (surroundings) of this property. The neighborhood is beautiful with lush green grass that is well cared for...huge, beautiful healthy trees.....Aspen, Blue Spruce, Weeping Willow, Cottonwood, and more. The neighborhood is quiet and provided privacy for residents. There is a lovely lake and beautiful flower garden.Adam, our contact for this rental, was very responsive to all of our questions, and inquiries.The house was beautifully built and had many high-end, lovely features...beautiful wood ceilings, huge log support beams, granite flooring, etc. Summer (at least for us) is not the time of year to come. It is a two-story home with the kitchen, main living area, a pool table room, and Master Bedroom with bathroom, on the top level. There is a small window-type air conditioner in the living area; however, it could not keep the upstairs area comfortable. In the middle to late afternoons the temperatures were quite often in the mid 80s or higher.We also had several maintenance issues. Several of the windows were inoperable. Window coverings, including wooden shutters and curtains...needed maintenance. The carpeting in the stairway was soiled, some of the drains in sinks and tubs were badly clogged, and we experienced a wounded bat on the floor of the bathroom one morning. Because of places that were not air-tight, (screens that could not be locked closed) there were often bugs in the house. Great location for us.

Filled the need for 4 bedrooms and baths.

Tired and rundown...shower didn't work in one bathroom. Kitchen can stand a good cleaning. Furniture could use a good shampooing. Electrical problem in overhead lighting (constant blinking). Just looked over-used and needs some tender loving care.

Great home for us and our dogs next to shopping and trails

My wife and I spent 11 days at this property along with our 2 labs and had a great time. The home is open, spacious and conveniently located next to shopping, restaurants, and services. We went to Whole Foods almost daily, had take-out from Smoke and other restaurants and local deli's. (be sure to check out Upper Crust's chicken salad). Having our dogs, the nearly 2 acre lot had space for our dogs to run and potty. The home is located in a small neighborhood with a large field we used to throw the ball and a loop drive that we used to walk the dogs. The Rio Grand Trail is just a few blocks from the home and Carbondale is just 8 miles away. We had no issues what so ever during our stay so we never personally met Adam but he checked in with us when we arrived and made sure our stay was good the day we left. The home is well equipped with everything you would need including a W/D, a great deck for sunsets, a pool table, Direct TV, wifi and we used the outdoor faucet to wash our dogs. Would recommend the home to dog owners looking for a place outside Aspen.

This is a well-designed house with plenty of space in an incredible location for our purposes. We walked our dogs throughout the neighborhood, including around the pond and common area, and the fenced-in dog yard at the house made letting them out a breeze. The property is gorgeous with a babbling brook and plenty of privacy, but was within easy walking distance of shopping, coffee, a brewery, bar, and other activities. We loved our stay.

This property really met our needs. We had a fairly large group, including a dog, and wanted to be close to Aspen in a place that provided plenty of indoor and outdoor space. Adam was easy to deal with before and during our stay. This was a lot of property for the money, in a great location. Basalt is a cute town, with good restaurants and nice walking spaces.
