About this property

Wonderful Log Home

Three bedroom log home on a wooded hillside with a view of the Crystal Valley. There is a wonderful view of Mt. Sopris from the hot tub on the back deck. Located within walking distance of the historic town of Redstone and near the Redstone Castle.
Crystal Valley is a beautiful area for hiking and exploring nature. Fly fishing on the Crystal River or drive to the Frying Pan River.
Enjoy the nearby Redstone Inn with great food and a lively bar or
visit Marble and explore the old Quarry Town.
The town of Redstone is on the Crystal River and is known as; “The Ruby of The Rockies”. This historic town is the home of The Redstone Inn which resides on the National registry of Historic Places. There is also unique shopping, guided fishing and hunting opportunities, a general store with basic food, and a small liquor store. Visit the newly remodeled Redstone Castle. For more information regarding tours of the castle see their website.

The house is located only 20 minutes up the valley from Carbondale, where you can find fine eateries, market and stores.
Some of the local activities in the area include visiting the natural hot springs on the Crystal river called Penny Hot Springs. There are also parks to visit and numerous hiking and biking trails.
Aspen and Snowmass is a beautiful 50min. drive up the Roaring Fork Valley.
In Redstone visit the art gallery or the antique store.
With warm summer days and cool summer nights Redstone is a perfect escape from hot summer heat at 7200 feet above sea level. If you enjoy sitting on the front porch of a beautiful log home built with quality and modern appliances, listening to the river and experiencing cool summer breezes, this home will be calling you back each year for a classic Colorado Mountain summer experience in the heart of the White River National Forest.
Pitkin County requires a minimum 4 day rental period per booking.
All wheel drive vehicle needed durning winter months.

Immaculate Home - Great Location

Family winter trip- absolutely beautiful home. The house was immaculately maintained. I was so impressed by all their attention to detail. It was evident they put a lot of time and effort ensuring their guests stay was enjoyable. The kitchen was so well stocked making it so easy to cook our meals. We loved watching the stars in the hot tub and coming in to a nice warm fire. We did fishing, snowshoeing and walks. A perfect family outing and we will definitely be back.

Wedding weekend

There were 6 family members that fit very comfortably in the spacious house. The kitchen was very large and accommodating. The communication with the hosts was great. The location was minutes away from the wedding venue. This house made it easy to enjoy the whole weekend and celebration!

Beautiful Cabin

We loved our stay in Redstone at this cabin. The owners being in the downstairs (they weren’t there much) was not a problem at all. The area was great and the cabin was amazing. We would definitely recommend it.

Mountain getaway

Beautiful home away from bustle and crowds. Near many hiking trails. Less than 20 min from Slow Groovin’ BBQ in Marble and White House Pizza in Carbondale - both fantastic local spots! Home is equipped with everything you’d want and more. Loved coffee on the deck in the morning and watching the many hummingbirds on the back porch!

Peaceful Mountain Retreat

We spent 4 days in Redstone to relax and take in the mountains. The house was a perfect home base as we visited Aspen, Paonia and Carbondale. We cooked quite a bit and enjoyed the deck and fully equipped kitchen. Recommend for a small group looking for some quiet and amazing views.

Idyllic setting

This is our second visit to this lovely cottage which is nestled on a forested lot. We enjoy the tall trees, different birds, views of the mountains from the outdoor hot tub. This log cabin is the perfect retreat, driving distance to Glenwood springs and Aspen yet far enough away for peace and quiet.

Great home, great host, don’t overpack cause they have everything!

After I booked I read host downstairs….NOT A PROBLEM! We were having family get together and I was concerned of bothering them but they were extremely gracious and very considerate. Nested in the mountains and perfect for us! I packed way too much for cooking and comfort…NO NEED…..the best equipped place I’ve ever rented and I’ve rented a bunch! We knew the area and were very pleased!

Beautiful home in an amazing location. The house itself is not right along the Crystal River (not really feasible to walk to it), but it’s quick drive down the road to a natural hot springs. All the amenities were as described. We had a great stay!

Redstone Cabin

Our family of 5 had a wonderful week at Jack’s place. The cabin was beautiful inside and out. The view from the back porch is amazing. The Crystal river is within walking distance and full of fish. Carbondale, Glenwood Springs and Aspen are to the north and are within easy driving distance. The small mountain town of Marble is also just a few miles to the south. We enjoyed some great pizza at Propaganda pie across the highway. This was out first time to this area of CO. The Redstone area in general is beautiful. We’ll be back!

Wonderful stay

My friends and I booked this after our other lodging in Marble fell through last minute. What a gem!! We’re so lucky we found it. We love the Crystal Canyon area and Jack & Jamie’s place didn’t disappoint. Jack & Jamie have created such a cozy space. The hot tub views are spectacular. The beds are the comfiest I’ve ever experienced in a rental. The kitchen is well appointed. Jack is a very responsive host. His dogs are awesome as well! Wifi wouldn’t support more than one person working remotely at a time, but was just fine for our vacation internet needs like streaming a movie or looking up recipes. Do yourself a favor and book this place to unplug. This is a great place to relax, unwind and squeeze in some skiing if you are so inclined. Don’t miss out on the hot springs in Glenwood as well.

Mountain cabin

The cabin was absolutely beautiful, we enjoyed our stay very much. The only thing would be I wish the owner disclosed that they lived on the property in the apartment downstairs. Don't take me wrong they we very gracious and kind, we didnt see them but only a few times but knowing strangers were on property, made my kids uncomfortable.

Jack's Place!

Let me tell you about Jack's place. First and foremost, everything was perfect. Location, check in, the home itself, and most importantly Jack himself, a gentlemen. He welcomed us into him home as if he was our uncle waiting for us to show up. He showed me how to use a few things and was off on his way. I would stay here again and highly recommend. Word of as advice. Read the sign in book. A lot of great info from other visitors.
