Description
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lease Aspen's first ski lodge--an iconic legacy ranch and private wellness retreat set on approximately 55 pristine acres just 10 minutes from downtown Aspen. This extraordinary Castle Creek estate features expansive mountain views, river frontage, two serene ponds, lush irrigated meadows, and several miles of private horseback, hiking, and biking trails weaving throughout the property. At the heart of the estate is the historic Highland Bavarian Lodge, now reimagined as the main residence following a comprehensive renovation by internationally acclaimed YODEZEEN Architects. The transformation masterfully preserves the lodge's storied character while introducing refined contemporary mountain design, modern infrastructure, advanced control systems, elevated finishes, and dedicated wellness amenities including a private gym and sauna--creating a true sanctuary for restoration and performance. Complementing the main residence are thoughtfully designed ancillary structures including two guest cabins, a caretaker apartment, office studio and barns--creating a fully self-contained ranch experience ideal for both recreation and retreat. Offering unparalleled privacy, natural beauty, and historical significance, this is an iconic Aspen property--available for seasonal and long-term rental.
