great house in a great location
Wonderful place to stay in the summer (we visited in July for 9 days). Great location - walk to John Denver Sanctuary, Clark's Market, the Rio Grande River and Trail and town. No need for a car unless you want to explore away from Aspen. The house was clean, comfortable and well supplied. We ate most dinners on the outside deck near the kitchen. We had no complaints. Great place to stay unless you have difficulty with stairs - there are lots of stairs. My wife and I are are in our 70s and the stairs were no problem for us - in fact we like the different levels in the house since they allow more privacy when in the bedrooms. However, someone who has difficulty with stairs might consider staying elsewhere. If you are not physically handicapped, this house is a wonderful place to stay!

My family and I love Ellen's house- best views in town, in an expansive eclectic setting- super convenient to downtown, Clarks, JBar, and mega shopping. Large parking space for 4 cars at premises. Amenities and provisioning are super. Lots of conversation, visiting and dining space- and huge decks on multi levels.

A gift of Family Memories
My wife and I decided to stay here with our kids and grandkids for a week of skiing. Everyone skied and enjoyed the ease of getting to all 4 mountains via the nearby Galena Bus route to the Ruby transit center. The house is within walking distance to the town center with great views of Ajax. The unique house design permitted the under 21’s their own private rooms while the adults could enjoy some quiet interludes. Walking the nearby trails showed off the magnificent homes in Aspen. Everyone left Aspen with great memories!

Cool and interesting house close to town
This property is a totally unique home that feels as if it’s been built into the side of a mountain. (Yes, as a result there are many stairs - not for the mobility impaired!) There are some small issues inherent to a big house that hasn’t been fully renovated - the primary bedroom bathroom door sticks and the tap is leaky, for example. But overall this house is pretty awesome. I especially appreciated the big ice maker in the kitchen (renovated and lovely) and the steam shower / sauna on the ground floor. The walk to town is about 15 mins and the sidewalks, as with everywhere in Aspen, can be icy but it’s close enough to be do-able without a car (we didn’t have one and that was fine). The host was super communicative and helpful. Would I stay here again with my friends? Absolutely!

FABULOUS
It is a wonderful property where we have stayed yearly. It has spacious bedrooms & bathrooms far enough from each other, so everyone has privacy. In addition there are stacks of wood and kindling so every night we could be cozy around the fireplace playing games & watching TV. It is truly a special place that the owners share with us!

Beautiful Thanksgiving in Aspen
This is a very unique property, situated to take in the magnificent views Aspen has to offer - it's really quite incredible. Each bedroom has its own balcony, along with a balcony for the main living area. You have beautiful views of Aspen, as well as the Roaring Fork River, and the town of Aspen.

Unique house in Aspen
The property is a unique architectural gem built into the hillside over an old silver mine shaft and incorporates some of the mine shaft into the interior of the home. It sits on a small hill just above the roaring fork river enjoying magnificent views of Ajax Mountain and the river valley. It is only ten to fifteen minute walk into town, which allows one to avoid the challenge of finding a parking space in downtown Aspen. It was a pleasure coming home each day to such a beautiful home. However, all this does come with a lot of stairs as the house is built on four levels and the master bedroom is 2 1/2 flights below the entry. My wife and I (both in our seventies) found the multiple levels offered privacy (guests and/or family members on different floors), great views and good exercise, but be forewarned. Overall, both the house and Aspen are very special and we plan to return.

Unique find in Aspen
I stayed with my family and another family for a week. The house was unique in its layout and architecture, and the location to downtown, the grocery/wine store, Hunter trailhead made it easy to walk everywhere. We especially enjoyed the outdoor patio, steam shower, and hot tub after morning hikes. The top floor bedroom gets very hot when temps reach high 80s. Overall, we were very happy to stay here!

Stunning house in a great location
This house is unique, beautiful and has everything you need for a group stay. The kitchen was loaded up with all the necessities (and more) for us to cook some great group meals. Short walk to all the restaurants/shopping. The steam room and hot tub were used a lot! The house has very cool architecture and the amount of windows allows for great views. The beds were very comfortable too. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and we really appreciated them being flexible with leaving our suitcases in the house while we walked around the town before our flights home. Thanks so much for a lovely stay - we will definitely be booking this house again in the future.

Perfect location, Ajax front and center views!
Our family of 5 adults had a perfect week at this beautifully appointed very large and perfectly located architect designed home. Large living/dining/kitchen areas on main floor—and we gathered around the wood burning fireplace every morning and evening. Bedrooms spread over 4 floors have lots of privacy for everyone—all bedrooms have their own bathrooms and decks with Ajax views. This is a family home with all the nice touches, well stocked kitchen and obvious care taken to make this a lovely place to stay. Would definitely recommend it for couples or families. (Stairs might be challenging with toddlers or elderly but we loved being spread out!) Owner and house manager were both welcoming and responsive to any inquires we had.

Cozy, eclectic, spacious house was very comfortable for our family of 6, (4 adult children). Easy walk to town even on snowy streets. Convenient bus access to town as well. The best equipped kitchen of any VRBO we’ve stayed. The house manager was extremely responsive to issues with heating - the problem was city wide and totally out of her control, but she worked to keep us comfortable.

The property exceeded expectations. We loved the views of Aspen Mountain from the many decks. The living areas (although separated by stairs) were very comfortable. We enjoyed a “gourmet “ Thanksgiving dinner, partially prepared by us, and partially carry out. Couldn’t have been more perfect. We loved our stay.
