The property manager was amazing, very communicative and helpful. We didn’t complain about any of these things during our stay because we were trying to enjoy ourselves and not deal with any disruption during our short time in Basalt: So many spiders. So many bugs in general. The binder says it’s normal because of the time of year but my mother lives on the same street a block down and my cousin lives a street away and neither have any issues with bugs or spiders. The day we checked in the bathtub had 4 of these bugs and a spider. Only 1 lightbulb in the basement “bedroom” works. Multiple shades in the living room/kitchen were broken down. The primary bedroom on the third floor has no door. I checked multiple times to see if I had missed where that was noted in the listing but it’s not mentioned. The bunk “room” in the basement is not a bedroom. It’s an open floor plan to a tiny kitchen that is for the owners and a table. The house has so much potential but needs a lot of help, it’s a little sad and creepy. We had a good experience with the property manager and I know a lot of the time there’s only so much they can do.
Cozy, spacious home. We enjoyed our stay very much!
Great outdoor and indoor space. We had 3 couples and each of us had our own floor and bathroom. Lots of privacy! Enjoyed the grill, back patio and gardens too
Absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home. The home is clean, beds are super comfortable, kitchen has everything you need. The views of the valley are amazing, easy drive to skiing, shopping and dinning. The home has plenty of room for a bigger family (we had 4 kids and 2 adults). Decor is fun and the host is very responsive. We will stay here again and again on our annual trip to the Aspen area.
Beautiful home and location
Every year a group of us connect in the area for a golf weekend. We selected this home for its ability to accommodate all of us (7 total) and it's proximity to all the courses we like to play. There have been numerous upgrades to this home - from the modern kitchen to updated bathrooms and lots of room to roam on the property. Great place and great value!
Great property. Ample seating for six of us in the living room and the deck. Kitchen well supplied and ample. With the bedrooms on separate floors each family had their own space.
Where to start...This home was invaded with spiders everywhere INSIDE the home. The kitchen table is not very stable and there is even a note to be careful if you extend it! floors are unlevel which made it hard for our elderly mother along with the sofas being too low for her to be able to sit. The basement kitchen was not useable with notes not to use it. The ceiling is peeling in the lower shower. Only bathroom on main floor is shared with a bedroom. House is very choppy. They have a key for a lock box to get in - just made it a bit more difficult coming and going - would be much better if it was a keyless entry system for guests. We didn't spend much time in the home, so we made it work. Positives - The landscaping was beautiful!
The house looks a bit better in photos than in reality. Much of the place is very nice - a modern spacious kitchen, a nice master suite upstairs, a light-filled dining area. The living room was OK. Be aware that the lower floor is not quite up to par. The separate bedroom down there is very sparse - no furnishings, the lighting not great, the closet full of owner stuff. The baseboard (water based) heating in that downstairs bedroom created very loud bangs all night - and the management company came to turn off the heat there and put two small electric heaters in the bedroom. My wife detected a certain smell in the lower level. And of course one has to pass through the bunkbed room to get to the bathroom or to go upstairs (we did not use the bunkbeds), Upstairs, there were a couple of largish sections of plaster that are damaged, flaked off. A section of wood is missing from the front screen door (leaving an opening about 6x8 inches). A couple of faucets are loose. The deck had not been shovelled and was unusable. The drive was icy, requiring great care walking to the cars. The management company was very responsive, but obviously they were not about to fix all the things I just mentioned immediately. So, we enjoyed it well enough, but it was overpriced for the overall quality.
We visited with another family for a shared ski trip. There was plenty of space for two sets of adults and five kids, amd the pre-teen was excited to have a separate room from the younger kids (in bunks). There is a lot of space for gathering with a nice kitchen to prepare your own meals. The location is great, you are right in Basalt but don't have to drive through town, the drive for skiing is pretty quick and this would be a great location for the summer to go hiking or out towards Reudi for some paddling. The beds were towards the firms side but still comfortable (I usually sleep terribly in rentals because beds are so hard and I slept well!). The only thing that would have been nice would have been for the rental company to make sure the renters key was in the outside box (it was hanging inside the house), but they also provided instructions for a back up key so it was fine. We will definitely come back.
