The Aspens is the best location in Jackson - right between the quaint village of Jackson (8 miles away) and world-class skiing and summer fun of Jackson Hole Ski Resort (5 miles away) . Both are minutes away.
Best of all, the area is quiet and filled with wildlife. You will love the beautiful outdoor scenery & indoor art on the walls plus all the little things we provide to make your stay comfortable and relaxing.
It is a one bedroom one bath condo with a private bedroom (queen bed), two bunk beds, a window bed (see picture) and a large sectional. I've tried to think of everything a guest might need in the klitchen with coffee pots, cookware, blenders, slow cookers, utensils, wine glasses, etc. The living room has lots of comfy pillows and blankets. The linens and towels are not the cheap stuff you sometimes see in vacation rentals....I try to treat you like a personal guest --- which you are! Guests can enjoy the entire place.
I'll not meet the guests in person but always available to answer questions or help in anyway. Moose and other wildlife A great place to see Moose in the summer is any patches of water along Moose-Wilson road. Moose love the water. If you don’t see any on the drive, pull into Rendevous Park at the corner of Moose-Wilson and Hwy 22. Drive slowly and look for dark shapes around the water on both sides of the road. Evenings are your best bet. It goes without saying (but we will say it anyway) that wild animals are indeed, wild. If you want to take pictures, that is great. But, remember to give them their space and be safe.
Dining guide There are a ton of great restaurants in the Jackson area, too many to choose from ;) Nearby: One of my favorites nearby is Calico. Calico offers great food, a beautiful outdoor setting during the summer and a great fireplace in the winter. For just a quick sandwich, Aspen Market (walking distance from the Condo) offers fresh soups and sandwiches as well as a surprising variety of groceries. Downtown Jackson: Lotus is amazing. It is my favorite place without question in Jackson. Their Samosas are spectacular. I also love Pizzeria Caldera. Their gluten free pizza crust is easily in my top 5 GF pizza crusts I have ever tried (and I have been a celiac for 14 years). Merry Piglet’s tacos downtown are also an overlooked gem. For a quick bite and a really great salad bar try Bubbas. Sidewinders (across from Bubbas) has a nice varied menu and friendly staff. “Local” restaurant downtown and Million Dollar Cowboy are both really popular also! Oh - and don't forget Thai-Me-Up for some fun thai-inspired fare.
Start Bus There is a public bus system in Jackson called Start Bus. You can find their full schedule and even track where each of the buses are in real time by googling "start bus jackson real time" (sorry urls don't come through in airbnb). The buses all have bike racks. The buses are subsidized by the Town of Jackson to keep the fares very low - they range from free to $3. The Start Bus goes to Calico restaurant, Albertsons, Teton Village, Snow King and of course downtown Jackson... to name a few. There is a paid Netflix and Hulu Live subscription for guest's use.
