Perfect spot

My husband and I had the best week of some major R&R. They aren’t lying when they say it’s a bit of Heaven. Sleeping with the bedroom window open every night to hear the sound of the Roaring Fork River and reading next to the river was so relaxing. The entire property is gorgeous, the space itself is very clean and comfortable. The hosts were super accommodating and gave great advice on where to eat and visit in the area. We will definitely be back again!

You Will Want To Stay Here

Stefan and Alexandra’s place along the Roaring Fork River is amazing! We will stay there every chance we get when visiting Carbondale, Colorado. The morning time in the hot tub when the temperature is 40 or 50 is so refreshing! Sitting outside in the comfortable lounge chairs and listening to the river and watching the wildlife is so relaxing and refreshing. You will want to stay here if you ever are in the Carbondale area. Thanks, Stefan and Alexandra for making this a special time for us. You were great hosts.

The property is nestled in a canyon next to the Roaring Fork River with amazing ponds and beautiful scenery. Beautifully decorated, it has all the amenities of home. It is small but perfect for a couple. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again.

2 of us (friends), got away for a winter retreat at this cozy and beautiful Carbondale estate. We loved the privacy, the rural area, but everything to see within easy driving distance. The jacuzzi overlooking the river was a bonus. Would definitely stay here again.

Very peaceful and great location

The house is located in a very picturesque river front location. The house was nicely furnished and clean. Basalt and Glenwood Springs were a very short drive and Carbondale is just over the river. The owners are easy to work with and are very nice. Their two dogs are a hoot.

We just love it here

This is our third time staying at this wonderful spot. Alexandra and Stefan are the kindest of hosts, and the accommodations are inviting, comfortable, and classy. So much to do nearby -- cycling, hiking, fishing, day tripping to Redstone or Glenwood. Sitting in the hot tub looking out at the river is the best, most relaxing way to end the day. Plus, we saw the bear and one of her cubs! :) Thanks for another relaxing stay, Alexandra and Stefan, and we hope to see you again soon! C & M

River Serenity

This is our second stay at the Island and we’ll definitely be back. The river and surrounding area is so peaceful and relaxing. The place is spotless and has all the equipment one needs. White House Pizza in Carbondale has great pizza and italian food. Sure Thing Burger in Basalt makes great burgers and uses local ingredients. It’s located in a nice shopping area. We loved the Rio Grande bike trail. One can ride clear to Aspen. Great trip!

We loved our stay. The place is even nicer than the photos. Very clean. Everything you could need. The river is steps away. And if you love dogs, there are two of the friendliest and fun dogs to play with. We enjoyed the town and restaurants. The hiking. And the fly fishing. And we had perfect weather. We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful vacation! Thank you Alexandra and Stephan!

It also comes with two play mates for him! Wilson had a ball with Spanky and Sassy, they are the cutest, friendliest furbabies! This was our second visit at this vrbo, we will stay here again!

Escape from the real world

Our stay at this delightful property was amazing! The sound of the river served as a natural white noise machine and we had incredible sleep! Stephan and Alexandra have thoughtfully created a cottage that is cozy, comfortable and peaceful. While we didn’t prepare any meals while vacationing, the kitchen was equipped to handle anything that a Cook could need. Excellent mattress and bedding- it was hard to get up each day. The property is beautiful and getting to interact with 2 delightful dogs was a treat for us. We hope to spend more time in the area and stay again in this magical, peaceful place.

Better than advertised!

Words and even pictures do not do this place justice. Quite literally a little slice of heaven that was shared with us. Alexandra and Stefan have made an amazing retreat and thought of every last detail. We tend to be a bit high maintenance and there was not one thing missing - including the raclette grill. If that was not enough, Sassy and Spankytoo are the most friendly fur babies and instantly adopt you into their pack. Other rentals often made us feel like an outsider by the interactions with their fur babies, but these two enhanced the time in several ways. We will be back!
