Vacation Station

Adventurers will love this top floor luxury condo – it's kitted out with all the modern comforts you could want, but still feels distinctly like a cabin in the woods. Enjoy ski-in, ski-out access, with Shadow Mountain lift just seconds away, ready to whisk you up to the slopes. You'll be excited to return to this cosy hideaway after a day on the slopes, with a toasty fireplace and plush sofas in the living room, and communal space in the building that offers an indoor hot tub and sauna. State-of-the-art tech and custom made furniture give the home the edge over the competition and it's been recently renovated to create stylish and modern interiors. We particularly love the view from the oversized windows, the warm faux fur throws draped all over the living room and the stainless steel kitchen. Head onto the private patio for a quiet stargazing session, or walk for three blocks to find Aspen's buzzing après-ski scene, with lots of bars and restaurants. This is also an excellent base for a summer holiday in the great outdoors – you'll find plenty of hiking trails nearby, and there's a shared seasonal swimming pool where you can cool off after exploring the rugged Colorado landscapes.

Home truths:
*There's a strict no-pet rule here
*The seasonal outdoor swimming pool is shared among the homes in the building and is only open June through September
*There's free on-street parking here – a permit is required
*The home is off the third floor and there's no lift access – get in touch with the host if you'd like to arrange with help for your luggage
* A fully integrated control system operates the TVs and a Sonos sound system throughout – it's simple to use from any tablet or iPad
*Although the walk into Aspen takes just ten minutes you can get around the whole area on the free Downtowner Shuttle
*You'll have a space to store your ski kit and a boot heater
