VIEWS, PRIVACY AND SPACE COMPLIMENT ASPEN’S TOP LUXURY RENTALS THAT ARE A LITTLE FURTHER AFIELD.
You’ve decided a villa rental is for you–fantastic choice, by the way. But what kind of villa will suit your needs (and wants) the most? Here in Aspen, we have two types of villas: central core and out of town. And within those types, there are multiple neighborhoods to choose from.
There is absolutely no wrong answer here but, it is important to have all the information you can in order to make the best decision for you and your group. In this blog, we will tell you about the options outside of Aspen. For central core villas, click here.
If you’re in the mood for some privacy, lots of space and spectacular views but you’d still like to be relatively close to downtown Aspen, Red Mountain is the choice for you. Did I mention the views? Because they are unreal. Pricing wise, you’re looking at comparable pricing to the Aspen Core, but that’s ok because you have views and space that you wouldn’t have in the core. There is no walkability nor nearby public transit stops, so you would definitely want a rental car in Red Mountain; but again, it’s so worth it for those views of all of Aspen.
Mountain Valley offers some of the better pricing options for vacation rentals in Aspen, so if you’re wanting to save some mula, this might be good for you. Add more perks like public transit connections if you need to get into town, you’re close to Independence Pass (which is just gorgeous and convenient if you’re driving to Aspen in the summer), and you have outdoor activities and river activities right where you are. Oh, it’s so quiet and peaceful. What’s not to love?
Some of the largest and most exquisite rental estates outside Aspen’s central core are located in the McClain Flats/Starwood neighborhood. If you are coming out with your family or a group of your closest friends, you might want to consider this area because it offers views that cannot be beat, maximum privacy, the largest land parcels, and peace and quiet that only the mountains can offer. Just like Red Mountain, you will need a car to get into town, but I’m sure you won’t mind!
The last neighborhood to choose from is West Aspen. Not to be confused with the West End in the central core of Aspen, West Aspen is a collection of smaller enclaves right outside the roundabout. The value on rentals here is a huge upside considering how close you are to Aspen Highlands, Maroon Creek Club, Tiehack, and West Buttermilk. That means you are close to skiing in the winter and hiking and biking trails in the summer. Pretty great if you ask me.
All in all, you really cannot go wrong choosing a luxury rental in Aspen. It’s all about what you’re looking for out of your stay in Aspen. And lucky for you, you have plenty of choices. The unlucky part is the actual searching process, because for whatever reason there is no centralized search engine for Aspen rentals. That’s where Aspen Luxury Concierge comes in.
At ALC, we do all that work for you so you can sit back and think about all the memories you and your family or group will make. And that’s not all we do for you! We offer a plethora of services such as arranging your transportation, stocking your kitchen before you arrive, making your dinner reservations and planning your activities. And that’s just the beginning.
