The Aspen Experience During COVID Times

We know it would be more fun if this pandemic hadn’t happened. It seems like just yesterday when we walked around town on our through the Farmer’s Market on Saturday morning, when we made our own picnic outside of the Music Tent to hear the most exquisite sounds under the quaking aspens, when we watched the Fourth of July parade wind through the streets, when nothing was canceled, nothing postponed, nothing closed or six feet apart.

We know. We are there with you.

But here’s the thing. The beauty of Aspen hasn’t gone anywhere at all. In fact, like the rest of the world, it’s probably grown more breathtaking since we let it breathe. We can attest, having had the chance to experience for ourselves during a time when we wouldn’t have been able to take the long hikes and walks during a high season. 

If you have the means to come to Aspen this summer and fall, you will want to book your stay with us, as soon as it becomes available (which of course, we are happy to keep you updated on!)

Just imagine! Your private jet lands at the airport, where you are picked up by your private driver, who whisks you and your fellow guests away to your private vacation rental. Everything and everyone you come in contact with have taken all the necessary health and safety precautions provided by the City (and trust us, we are checking). You instantly feel enveloped by the fresh mountain air. The views are unbelievable, the beds are heavenly, and your entire kitchen is already stocked with your favorite wine and cheese to celebrate your return. You can still relax, you can still be surrounded by those you love, you can still play and you can still enjoy nature.

Not bad, huh? 

Aspen might not look and feel the same, but it may be the only opportunity to experience our town a bit differently. And from a local perspective, it’s really not a bad thing! It’s why we chose Aspen to call home.

After your arrival, you can expect the same tailored service from us at ALC. With our White Glove Service, we are happy to continue to shop for and deliver your groceries, run your errands, order and deliver your dinner takeout, prep your meals, and coordinate any and all your activities. Yes, there are still activities! (Biking, hiking, fly-fishing, camping, picnics in the park, or even a nice stroll down the Rio Grande trail)

We know you would rather it be different. And again, we would, too. But we are totally going to make the most of this summer because it’s still Aspen! It’s still the most beautiful place to stay close and yet feel far away. It’s still the place you can come to for a reset, a change of pace and altitude–it’s just that this time, it’s after a long quarantine.

Come see us. And let us give you a chance to forget the stress the year has brought for just a little while. We think you deserve at least that.
