About this property

Downtown Carbondale Parkside Retreat | Oasis

Tucked just across from Mount Sopris Park and a block from Carbondale's vibrant Main Street, this modern 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartment blends charm, convenience, and comfort. With tall ceilings, a remodeled kitchen, dedicated work space, and a queen Murphy bed for extra guests, it's a walkable home base for both relaxing stays and Roaring Fork adventures. Pet-friendly and thoughtfully soundproofed, this space brings together mountain living and small-town energy in perfect harmony.

At the heart of downtown Carbondale—right across from beloved Mount Sopris Park—this bright, basement-level apartment invites you into a space that's as welcoming as the town itself. With high ceilings, large windows, and fresh renovations throughout, the home offers comfort and style with an unmistakably local spirit.

Set beneath the main home in a lively residential neighborhood, you're truly in the mix of Carbondale's community—where kids ride bikes down the street and music floats over from the park on summer evenings. It's not remote, but it is real: a genuine mountain-town stay with walkability, warmth, and room to settle in.

Inside, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area has been carefully laid out for both relaxation and utility. Cook with ease in your fully equipped kitchen, catch up on emails from the dedicated desk nook, or unwind in front of the TV after a day of hiking or biking. The dining area features a comfortable queen-size Murphy bed, easily pulled down to accommodate two additional guests.

The primary bedroom includes a plush queen bed, closet space, and easy access to the modern, updated bathroom. Whether you're here for work, a getaway, or time with friends and family, everything you need is right here.

Step outside and you're moments from it all—walk to charming cafes, trailheads, and Carbondale's year-round calendar of festivals and markets. Or simply cross the street to enjoy a picnic or live music in Mount Sopris Park.

Great location! Close to everything! Very cute apartment. However sheets weren’t provided for the Murphy bed and you could hear everything from the upstairs unit.

Thank you so much for your kind review and thoughtful feedback and we truly appreciate it! The bedding for the Murphy bed is kept in the closet for guests to use, and I’m sorry if that wasn’t easy to spot during your stay. I’m also sorry to hear that it was a bit noisy at times, and we hope it didn’t take away too much from your overall experience. We’d love the opportunity to host you again in the future! - Aspen Leisure Co.

Great location. Well stocked kitchen. Was able to cook and serve Thanksgiving meal for our family of three. As a VRBO host as well. Here are a few suggestions. Would suggest restocking of silverware (short number) and additional towels for both kitchen and bath are a must since there is no washer and dryer for a long stay if 7 days. Thanks.

Thank you so much for staying with us and for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback! We’re so glad to hear that the kitchen worked well for preparing your Thanksgiving meal, and that truly makes us happy. We also really appreciate your suggestions, especially coming from a fellow VRBO host. And yes, you’re absolutely right, our listing does not include a washer or dryer as an amenity, so having extra towels on hand is a great idea. Thank you again for your helpful insights and for being such a lovely guest. We’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!

GREAT kitchen! Cooked all our meals there. I enjoyed the older neighborhood next to park, walking around looking at older houses. Although this apartment was in the basement, the lighting was bright and well-placed, so I found it delightful to stay there. AND, the price was quite affordable, a double plus!

lovely, spacious, charming spot

This apartment is truly a lovely spot. It has a great location, and, is situated with understated charm and welcoming additions. It is full sized, so, it has very high and spacious ceilings, just not a lot of sunlight. For our purposes it worked well since we were away during the day times. It was quite a comfortable spot to rest at night after a full day outdoors.

Overall, a great stay.

We drove our Electric Vehicle from Denver and stayed at this home. It is a great place for 3-4 people. We also had our dog. The neighborhood is quiet and nice. The EV charger is literally a 3 min walk. It is not a free charger but is very inexpensive. Also, you need to move the car every 4 hours at the charger but overall, still very useful to have. The home is very comfortable with a pull out sofa bed, a full bed and a murphy bed.

Great place

This gem is situated at a great location, walking to main street, easy drive to ski resorts, everything inside has been updated, comfortable beds and sitting area. As a basement unit, you should expect some noise, at the same time it is very minimal while we were there. A great rental also needs a great management team to provide communications that are timely, clear, actively listening (asking the right question to understand the underlying issues), respect diverse opinions, and mostly address what is important to the customer. The management team for this unit has succeeded in providing great communications, after booking, during the stay, and after departure. I appreciate the effort the management team put in for this. Only thing that I would love to see in this unit is adding a washer and dryer. A week of skiing without clean clothes was a bit of a challenge for us.
