Great Retreat!

Our group of adult ladies stayed here for a local retreat and felt totally pampered and comfortable. The hosts had thought of everything we may need and all conveniently located and labeled. House was ready to go, including the hot tub. We'll definitley look to book this again next year!

Majestic Mountain Views

Property is well maintained with great views of the mountains. Kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans and utensils. Hot tub was in good condition with tremendous views. The drive up to the house was a little steep, but doable and with it. Make sure to eat at The Farmhouse just a few minutes away. Within driving distance to Tail of the Dragon and Blueridge Parkway.

Perfect getaway for everyone

We came for a long weekend to step away from the hustle and bustle. Started with a beautiful drive in a very quiet neighborhood. We arrive to Harry's beautiful home, lots of space for large families, had plenty of amenities and had something for everyone. We enjoyed the fire pit, game room, hot tub and watching the sun set from the porch. Service for phones and wifi were spotty but it was what we wanted. 10-15 mins into town if you need anything. This home will be on the list to stay at again. If you are thinking about booking, just do it.

Perfect house with a beautiful view

Everything was perfect here and we so very much enjoyed our stay! Hosts are responsive should you need anything. The house is beautiful with an epic view. We loved drinking coffee on the deck and relaxing in the hot tub! We will definitely be returning.

Mountain Vacation

House was very nice! It is secluded on a high hill with a beautiful view. House is very spacious with 3 bedrooms on top floor and a full basement with an additional bedroom and day bed. Basement also serves as a play room. Perfect for large families or multiple families. House was very clean. Only minor issues, such as shower curtain was broken in master bedroom when we arrived and TV was kind of a pain to deal with, but nothing that would keep us from staying here again. Very convenient to activities as well.

Beautiful house and million dollar view

The house was spotless. This was our 2nd time staying. The house is so comfortable especially for a large family. New jacuzzi and fire pit area. Communications with owner was spectacular. We watch the leaves change colors sitting on the deck. The house had everything you could think of from dishes, pots and games. I just love this house. We will be back.

Amazing views

We absolutely loved this house! There is plenty activities to keep everyone entertained for all ages. (Hot tub, pool table, air hockey, and ping-pong) The drive up is steep but no trouble at all. The location is excellent. The house was very clean. The views are beautiful. We would love to stay here again in the future.

Great Vacation

We have vacationed in North Georgia and North Carolina for the past 20 years and this was definitely one of the best places. Our family enjoyed the rooms and the views. Kitchen was well stocked and everything was clean and organized. The drive up to Aspen East was a bit steep but just take your time. Only one issue arose and that was due to the trash cans being full but Josh took care of it right away. We highly recommend Aspen East.

Great weekend getaway

This house had everything that we needed. I brought extra supplies ( toilet paper, paper towels, dish washer tabs, hand soaps etc). We did not need them, because this house had plenty of supplies. There are board games, puzzles, pong pong table, pool table, books, tvs, a hot tub outside. There is a beautiful view of the mountains from the back porch. Our host was helpful and fantastic. I plan on coming back.

POOR COMMUNICATION - PROPERTY NOT AS DESCRIBED

Host failed to send check-in info through the VRBO as required, was unresponsive to multiple msgs, calls and repeated attempts by VRBO to reach him resulting in late check-in. VRBO was in the process of relocating us to another property when he finally responded at 4:30 pm and said " it wasn't his fault we didn't get his email" sent OUTSIDE of VRBO site. Front of the property was under rehab so we could not access the front door, concrete forms where blocking the steps and a huge pile of gravel in the parking area. House was roomy, and well furnished but had many of the same issues mentioned in previous reviews over a year ago. The ice maker did not work, broken produce drawer, plaster peeling off the ceiling, pots and pans had broken handles, the outdoor furniture was rickety, and so rusted it would stain your clothes. There were scores of nails protruding from the upper deck beams posing a serious safety issue, deck boards were so rotted, you could push your finger through it, the kitchen faucet was impossible to shut off, the popcorn machine did not work, the hot tub would not heat up past 94 degrees, some jets did not work. And while pet friendly, absolutely no place for them to do their business. Completely graveled to the edge of fenced cliffs. Host has offered no adjustment for these issues, and has ignored our request for refund of our deposit held since March. After over 2 weeks, now says it is refunded but may be another15 days before we get it. NEVER AGAIN!

FANTASTIC VIEW

Check in and out was a breeze. No fuss. Views are indescribable from every room. Well equipped and fairly clean home. We were a family group of 9 adults (4 couples) and a baby. Plenty of space. There are 4 bedrooms. 3 on main level (1 king master and 2 separate queen rooms with Jack and Jill)and 1 king downstairs with a separate daybed room and also a full bath and few couches throughout. You literally just need to bring your food and your clothing. Very comfy. Like home away from home. Lots of family board games. Also pool table, air hockey and ping pong were wonderful for keeping everyone entertained. Kitchen faucet is a bit tricky to turn completely off, and if stove stops working, trip the breaker back. It's located in downstairs bedroom. Also, hot water doesn't last for everybody to shower back to back, so we found it best to space them out a little bit.. no big deal. All in all, this was one of the most comfortable, well appointed vrbos we've stayed in and we take a mountain trip and a beach trip yearly. We will definitely be booking this house again! Can't wait!

Wedding made more perfect staying at Aspen East

Wow! We loved loved Harry's house. The kitchen was super stocked (gotta get that kitchen faucet fixed, though. It drips drips drips and even in a stream if not turned off just right. ) Plenty of sitting and visiting space. Beds were great. Game room was great. It was all beyond great. Thank you, Harry, for our early admittance. Though we left Sunday afternoon instead of Monday, I am sure we will be back. Also, we did not find the key hanging on the refrigerator, but locked up and used the code when we left. This was the perfect place for our fam to attend a wedding at McGuire's Mill Race Farm. Fabulous weekend getaway!

Beautiful house with stunning views of the mountains

We were 9 adults here for a wedding in Topton. The house was spacious, beds comfortable and kitchen well supplied. Sitting in the hot tub looking at the mountains was wonderful. The trundle bed in the game room turned out to be in a second room with a door (and the air hockey table) which was a plus as it gave more privacy. Would benefit greatly with some hooks on the wall or over the door as there is no where to put/hang clothes for the person(s) sleeping there. Can’t imagine how beautiful this place would be in the fall but would like to come back sometime and see. Definitely recommend this place!

About the host

Hosted by Harry Swart

Two brothers and their wives are the proud owners of this home. One resides in the beautiful state of Colorado, which inspired the name of the house and the other resides in Central Florida.We have been visitors and land owners in the area since 1995 and have finally built our vacation dream home on this beautiful mountain top site.

Why they chose this property

Over the years we have found this area to be peaceful and beautiful yet full of opportunities for outdoor activities. The people of this wonderful valley that we have come to know are warm and friendly and we have developed many lasting friendships. Every time we arrive in the valley we feel like this is home; and now we can say that it truly is our home away from home.

What makes this property unique

This home has one of the most beautiful views in the area. Locals who have visited our home are awed by the unobstructed beauty of the view. We feel blessed to be able to share our home with you and have taken great care to provide you with a wonderful experience. And now you are only a short 10 minute drive to the beautiful new Harrah's casino.
