Stefan and Alexandra were very friendly hosts. The Bit of HEAVEN space was quite comfortable with all the amenities of home. Surrounded by the Roaring Fork river was an added bonus with access to walking trails and fishing holes. I would definitely recommend their place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway to Carbondale, CO.

We love the outdoors at this property. It’s green, shady, right on the river with the cooling effect and the lovely sound (along with the sound of a waterfall across the river and 2 fountains in the duck ponds on-site.), with great lounge chairs and dining table and chairs next to the Roaring Fork. The owners are lovely, welcoming hosts. There are over 2 acres of space for our dog to run around, complete with squirrels, and 2 resident dogs to hang out with. AND it abuts the paved bike/walking trail that runs from Glenwood Springs to Aspen. It’s less than a mile walk to Carbondale. This was our 3rd time to stay here, and we highly recommend it.

Perfect spot
My husband and I had the best week of some major R&R. They aren’t lying when they say it’s a bit of Heaven. Sleeping with the bedroom window open every night to hear the sound of the Roaring Fork River and reading next to the river was so relaxing. The entire property is gorgeous, the space itself is very clean and comfortable. The hosts were super accommodating and gave great advice on where to eat and visit in the area. We will definitely be back again!

You Will Want To Stay Here
Stefan and Alexandra’s place along the Roaring Fork River is amazing! We will stay there every chance we get when visiting Carbondale, Colorado. The morning time in the hot tub when the temperature is 40 or 50 is so refreshing! Sitting outside in the comfortable lounge chairs and listening to the river and watching the wildlife is so relaxing and refreshing. You will want to stay here if you ever are in the Carbondale area. Thanks, Stefan and Alexandra for making this a special time for us. You were great hosts.

Visit to Carbondale
Beautiful location steps away from the river on multiple acre property. My dog lived having run of the property with owner/hosts 2 dogs. Hosts (Alexandra and Stefan) live in another building on site and are extremely welcoming and helpful. The suite is immaculately maintained and well supplied, with comfy king size bed in room that opens out to river and hot tub. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
