The Riverhouse was our choice for our annual family vacation-9 adults (17-80) and an eleven year old. Loved the different spaces at the riverhouse-could all be together or find our separate areas. But the deck was the best for coming together! Nice to have en-suite bathrooms for most of the bedrooms! Kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of everything we needed! So much to do in Aspen-Sunday on Aspen mountain, yoga, whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River, Maroon Bells, Snowmass concert on the lawn of Fanny Hill, and woody Creek Tavern! Would love to think we could return! Like Colorado best in the summer! Thanks Bill for sharing your home!
Beautiful location on the river, located in a great place relative to exploring, lots of room to spread out and great spaces to hang out together. We loved the outdoor patio and being down by the river. Perfect for our family reunion!
Our second stay at this VRBO and will definitely do it again! Perfect for our group and LOVE the location. Must visit Woody Creek Tavern!
We stayed at the Riverhouse home for our Spring break week and couldn't have asked for a better place for our family. The layout of the home was perfect for multiple families. There are plenty of bathrooms and the downstairs space with a pool table and TV area was great for the teens. The kitchen is well stocked with small appliances as well as spices and condiments. It was an easy drive to skiing and into town for dinner.
We just returned from a fabulous ski trip with our family and friends. This house is 3 minutes from the free park and ride bus to Snowmass, Aspen and the other mountains. We found the house to be very spacious and comfortable for our group. The cozy retro style and gorgeous views of this house just added to our experience. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and had many items and supplies we used a few and left a few more. I recommend checking into the house prior to shopping you may find many things on your list are already there like spices, etc. I would highly recommend staying at this beautiful house on the river. We were visited several times by a number of deer in the yard. Great trip! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.
We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. It was perfect for a family ski vacation. We had 9 or10 people (kids and adults) most nights and there was plenty of room for everyone. We primarily skied at Snowmass, a short 15 minute drive away, even in the snow (which we got a lot of while we were there!). We ate most of our meals at the house - which worked out well. We also enjoyed the hot tub for apres ski. The house is located directly on (and has BEAUTIFUL views of) the Roaring Fork River. We would highly recommend this house for a winter vacation.
Great location and ideal for a large group. Owner responded quickly when issues came up.
Perfect spot and house. Better than the description!
Very spacious. The cabin was nice being spread out over three floors. Very nice recreational area. Views were outstanding. We saw several different types of wild life. Mule deer came out right under the front porch one day, as well as a flock of turkeys. We saw two bald eagles and numerous types of birds. The kids did sledding beside the house.
Great location, close to airport. Lots of room and amenities.
The property was easy to find in a great location. It was very comfortable with lots of space and very clean. The jacuzzi, river in back yard, and fireplace all added to the experience. Thank you Bill.
This is our 2nd year that my family (kids, grandkids) stayed at The Riverhouse. It was as memorable as the first. The location is unbeatable and the house is very accommodating. Also the owner is extremely responsive to any issues. 5-star is definitely earned.
The Riverhouse exceeded all expectations. The listing is accurate, plenty of space for a multigenerational family to spread out. The outdoor space and views are beautiful and the river setting is serene, peaceful and more breathtaking than I ever would have imagined. Bill was a tremendous host, responsive and welcoming. We are already discussing plans for next summer.
Best location on the river, in the path of the planes landing, house can comfortably accomodate a large number of people.
