SCOUT REVIEW
Chateau Eau Claire and Chateau Roaring Fork are two sister condo complexes located on the banks of the Roaring Fork River in Aspen. These properties appeal to travelers who want the space and flexibility of condos with a location that balances tranquility with easy access to downtown Aspen and the slopes.
Accommodations range from one- to four-bedroom condos, each with a full kitchen, living area with fireplace, dining space, and private balcony or patio. Units are individually owned, so styles range from modern and updated to more traditional mountain décor. River-facing units are particularly popular for their peaceful views and the sound of rushing water.
While not ski-in/ski-out, the properties are within walking distance (about 10 minutes) to the Silver Queen Gondola at Aspen Mountain. For those who prefer not to walk in ski boots, complimentary shuttles run frequently, making it easy to get to the lifts, restaurants, and shops downtown. Guests also have access to amenities like an outdoor heated pool, hot tubs, and a fitness facility, making the stay more resort-like than many standard condo rentals.
Chateau Eau Claire and Chateau Roaring Fork are not luxury properties—they don’t offer high-end finishes, extensive hotel services, or glamorous après-ski scenes. Instead, they deliver space, convenience, and value, especially for families or groups who want to spread out and enjoy home-style comforts while staying close to Aspen’s action.
Who should stay here
Best for families, groups, and value-conscious travelers who want roomy condos near Aspen’s slopes and downtown, but don’t need full five-star services. A great option for longer stays.
Location
Chateau Eau Claire and Chateau Roaring Fork sit along the Roaring Fork River, about a 10-minute walk from downtown Aspen and the Silver Queen Gondola. Complimentary skier shuttles provide easy access to Aspen Mountain and the other Aspen Snowmass ski areas. The riverside setting adds peace and scenic beauty while keeping guests close to the action.
