Chateau Roaring Fork Condo 31

Sitting on the porch by the river and relaxing was the best. Really loved this place.

We had a decent two-bedroom apartment on the second floor. It was clean, though old, and pretty dark inside. The location was lovely, with an easy walk into town and a beautiful view. The sound of the Roaring Fork River right below was so relaxing. I do wish there had been a choice of pillows, since the only ones provided were really thick and fluffy.

The washer and dryer were handy, and they left a few detergent packs. There was some cooking equipment, but no coffee grinder, and you'll need to bring food, spices, oils, and the rest yourself. The room humidifier didn't work. For the fireplace there were just two logs and some very old firestarters that didn't work, so bring wood and fire tools if you want a fire. The ski lockers felt about 50% too small, and there were no speakers with a 3.5mm jack for phone music. At night, trucks passing by were loud, and the semi-transparent shades let in too much light. At least the slopes are close, about an 8 minute walk.

It's a great condo in a handy spot, an easy walk to downtown Aspen. I took off a star because the property manager was short on everyday basics, like dish towels, salt and pepper, and about a dozen other little things you wouldn't pack for a trip.
