A
SPEN ON THE RIVER

Your Subtitle text
Are you looking for a riverfront, pet-friendly, vacation home to rent? 
This luxurious Crystal River home has been set up for your comfort. Come home to a warm fireplace, soft velvet sofas and big roomy armchairs. Tapestries, goose down pillows, and warm brass accents add to the ambiance. Sit on the swings by the white water river that runs along the property. View wildlife, such as bear, bighorn sheep, elk, deer, and eagles as you walk the dirt road that runs along the river and leads to the property. In the summer enjoy starlit skies while soaking in the outdoor spa, and fall asleep to the sound of rushing rapids and cool mountain air.

Can we bring our pets with us?

Aspen on the River welcomes dogs and horses! The property has four acres with a horse pasture, corral, and large outdoor kennel for your four-legged friends. Well-behaved dogs are allowed inside the house.

A horse pasture?

Yes, this area is very popular with hunters in autumn, many of whom bring their own horses or rent locally owned horses.

Sounds great, where are you located?

This great vacation home is situated in the White River National Forest, seven miles south of Carbondale, Colorado, just thirty minutes from Aspen.

What types of activities are nearby?

The Crystal and Roaring Fork valleys are famous for world-class skiing, fishing, hunting, hiking, rafting, horseback-riding, biking, and so much more! See our Activities page for a complete list. In addition, Carbondale is rapidly becoming a mecca for artists and musicians. Main Street is home to several fine-dining restaurants.
