Beautiful Riverside Ski Retreat! *Now with Hot Tub!*

Gorgeous apartment right on the Eagle River! Just minutes from Vail and Beaver Creek, Minturn is still a small ski town where life moves at a slower pace. We are within easy walking distance to Minturn's shops and restaurants. This is one of the few spots in the Vail area where you can't hear the endless sound of I-70, instead you hear the burbling river from your private hot tub. Includes gourmet kitchen/Viking stove, 2 gas fireplaces (in the great room and master bedroom), master en-suite bathroom with jetted tub.

This property used to provide the "Rooms on the River" when it was part of the Minturn Inn on Main street. Now this coveted spot is all for you. Tucked out of the way on a quiet street it's the perfect place to relax after a hard day of mountaineering.

The apartment consists of the great room and the master bedroom suite. The master bedroom has a king bed, private bedside fireplace, en-suite bathroom with jetted bath tub, glass shower and hot tub right outside.

The main room contains a queen bed with privacy curtains which has direct access to the main bathroom and shower. The main room also contains the full gourmet kitchen, breakfast bar, round table that seats 6, 50" tv with cable, and pull out sleeper sofa. The apartment opens directly out to the yard right on the river.

The entire apartment is private including private entrance. The yard is shared with us, however we rarely use it since our children prefer the front/street side of the house where they can ride their bikes! My wife or I will often be out fly-fishing in our backyard river in the summer evenings and we're happy to share the space and tell you what's biting!

Unfortunately, we are not wheelchair accessible. Or even high-heel accessible. Boots are recommend to walk through the shoveled path that takes you to the riverside entrance. There is a sturdy rope to help guide you but you must be sure-footed.

Our family of four lives in the completely separate upstairs. I'm normally available for anything that comes up, but do not want to impede on your relaxing riverside vacation.

Our home is a non-smoking property, no pets please.

Pack n' Play with fitted sheet in unit. Ironing board/iron, fan, extra blankets, picnic basket/backpack, hair dryer in each bathroom.

Minturn is a small town away from the bustle of Vail and Beaver Creek. There are several restaurants including a great breakfast diner with a full bar, and a sandwich shop/bakery with espresso bar. For dinner, there's a pizza place with a pool table and arcade games, a cook-your-own steak joint, a local winery with an open porch in the summer, and amazing wings and BBQ are a dangerous one-block away. Quaint gift shops, a record store and the best fly shop in the mountains are all within walking distance! Then, when you get back to our house, we are one of the few places off the main street so it is ultra cozy and quiet.

The world class mountains of Vail and Beaver Creek are literally minutes away and accessible by bus. Skiing, snowboarding, hiking, fly-fishing, mountain biking and river rafting is right out your door.

There is free parking in the driveway for two cars. There is a bus stop a 3-minute walk away that will take you to Vail for $4. Ubers and taxis are also available.

Perfect Stay in Minturn
This is a return stay at Spence’s lovely home on the river. It’s a perfect location for skiing between Vail and Beaver Creek and convenient walking distance to several restaurants and bars in Minturn. The space is very clean, has plenty of supplies, plus everything you need to cook some great meals. The welcome basket is a thoughtful added touch. Thanks for sharing your home, Spence!

Amazing and cozy house on the river in between Vail and Beaver Creek. The kitchen had everything we could possibly need to cook and the extra water and snacks provided were very appreciated! Lots of TV channels, accessible HDMI port, good WiFi, nice selection of amenities, and beautiful location. Thanks for a great stay!

Just what we wanted.
I wanted to book a trip for my husbands 50th birthday and the only thing he said he wanted was a private place with a running river just outside the door. This was the perfect place. It was so clean and truly had everything you could need. Spence was easy to work with and even came and introduced himself to let us know he was available if we needed anything. It was a great trip, very convenient to a lot of hiking trails, and a great place to stay.

We absolutely loved renting from Spence and his family. They are one of the best hosts we have rented from. The apartment was tidy and clean, the view was fantastic, appliances were awesome and clean, the hot tub was clean and relaxing, oh and they had free snacks, wine, and beer. We also loved the location: close to hikes, wing place, tiny convenience store, and Vail. 100% recommend this spot to everyone! We will definitely be back when time permits!

This was one of the best places I have stayed! Spence is an excellent INN keeper and so thoughtful. The space was amazing, clean and the most accommodating of anywhere I have stayed. Spence has taken excellence in hospitality to the next level and the location is perfect for lazy days or adventuring. The only drawback was having to leave!!

Look no further!
From the hot tub, to the two fireplaces, the river, the fully stocked kitchen and the amazing decor, this place exceeded our expectations. All the appliances and decor are great quality (no ikea stuff). Tons on warm blankets, rugs, books, games, real cabin feel. I’ve stayed at several VRBOs and never have I seen a place with such beautiful detail and elegance. We stayed for our honeymoon, couldn’t have asked for a more romantic space. Thank you!

So AMAZING! Why stay anywhere else?
This property was even better than we expected. I’ve never stayed someplace that had EVERYTHING you could possibly need for an amazing stay. The location is 1/2 block from Main Street and right on the river. Beautiful! The added bonus is the hosts are exceptional. Super friendly and helped us with anything we needed. They even gave our friends kids confetti poppers for New Years Eve. We can’t wait to return. Thanks for everything.

A wonderful property, with a well-equipped kitchen, a lovely living room, and comfortable bedroom. The hot tub was a real plus after a long day's hike--plenty of trails nearby, and some great places to eat within walking distance. The host was immediately responsive to any questions or concerns.
