Sheltered beneath the pines, your intimate cabin sits nestled aside Maroon Creek. Floor-to-ceiling windows face the roaring creek to present you with a first-rate show of the natural beauty & wildlife that surround you. This studio cabin sits where the road ends & the adventure begins at T-Lazy-7 Ranch, a family-owned and operated working ranch since 1938. Find yourself at the gateway to the Maroon Bells, the most photographed peaks in North America. This ranch offers a multitude of summer and winter guided adventures and the serenity of the perfect resting spot.
Adventure + relaxation collide with our River's Edge Cabin. Nestled alongside Maroon Creek, this cabin is part of the 200+ acre ranch that has been part of Aspen's history since the late 1800's. Your cabin sits on the edge of the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness and is the closest non-camping accommodations to the world-famous Maroon Bells. Your cabin on the edge of adventure is almost too restful to leave: perfectly appointed for comfort in the midst of Aspen's rugged and stunning wilderness. A queen bed sits in the middle of the cabin in front of a warm fire - wake up to the sound of the river and watch wildlife such as moose, bears, fox, bobcat, and birds directly outside. A perfectly-appointed kitchenette allows you to cook simple meals with a fridge, microwave, sink, and cozy two-seater dining table facing the river. When you're not exploring your breathtaking surroundings, lounge on your chaise with the fire on, or travel down the gravel path to your riverside lounge area.
You are a short walking distance from the T-Lazy-7 Ranch adventure center offering guided snowmobile tours in the winter as well as horseback riding and e-bike rentals during the summer months. Walk over to the farm store for locally-raised Wagyu beef, fresh eggs, high-altitude honey, and gift shop. Jump on a rented e-bike and cruise directly to Maroon Lake at the base of the Bells - you are only 6 miles to this iconic site. Whether you're here to explore the wilderness surrounding the cabin, or just to enjoy a plush cabin in a stunning setting, the River's Edge Cabin is a true Aspen gem and experience worth living.
