Family getaway

Our family of post-college children and in-laws were looking for a beautiful spot from which to be together and have access to all our desired activities. This house was large, roomy, comfortable and spacious where we all had our own space and was located close to activities such as hiking, fly fishing and biking. We loved being outside of town but still close enough for shopping and the occasional afternoon out. Wonderful spot.

Made for friends and family!

Very large and comfortable home with views from every window. this home was made for entertaining with lots of comfy furniture and a fully stocked kitchen. We had big dinners on the deck and enjoyed watching the deer which were very comfortable walking up to the house. The town of Basalt is a short drive away with wonderful restaurants.

Large Mountain Home - Peaceful Stay

Alice's home had more than enough room for our family of nine. It was extremely well stocked - from the linens to the kitchen. August evenings were cool enough for open windows and fans were provided when needed. Cell service was poor and wifi slow. Location was good for summer activities.

The house was wonderful, and we all had a great time staying there. Part of our group was skiing, and the rest were there to hike and site see. The house was centrally located to have access to all the area has to offer. Would definitely choose to stay there again!

Frying Pan River

We love staying at Alice’s home on the frying pan river. We have stayed two times. The beds are very comfortable, with great linens pillows down comforters. The kitchen is great to cook in. We can hear the river running at night. Had a wonderful trip.

Basalt Winter Stay Review

Nice home, breathtaking views, heated floors and extremely cozy. Cons Broken coffee maker pots, water separates after sitting and leaves residue floating and on cup, hot tub jets broken, doors wouldn't lock extremely easy to enter home uninvited, spare bedrooms/apartment is entirely separate from the main home and not exactly ideal for family members you want close, especially considering the doors won’t lock and front door is incredibly difficult to open most of the time. In summary, amazing place, needs a week of maintenance and would be 4-5 star stay, which makes it slightly more annoying that for the price it would be so simple to fix all the issues with the home the guest just has to put up with.

Quiet location, spacious house, great for family gathering

Great location for a relaxing family vacation. The house has plenty of space for a family of 8+. The bedrooms and bathrooms are clean. The house is a few miles out of town in the beautiful Frying Pan River Valley. Cell phone reception is minimal. Internet speed is slow. Alice, the host, had great recommendations for hiking in the neighborhood.

Great stay!

Alice was an amazing host! She answered questions so quickly, and had everything we could possibly need. I mentioned to her that this would be our first holiday away from home, and she put up a lovely decorated Christmas tree! We absolutely loved our time spent in her comfortable home. So appreciative of her thoughtfulness!

Seven Castles Beauty

We loved Alice’s house. Beautifully decorated, plenty of room to spread out. Beautiful views of the Seven Castles. Great hiking and fishing all around. Frying Pan River walking distance from the house. Great waterfall hike right out the front door.Our family enjoyed numerous basketball games in the driveway and soaking in the hot tub. Beautiful golf courses nearby. It was a really good stay!
