An anniversary, a birthday, a few days away from everyone. The Aspen moments worth building a trip around, and how we put them together.
The most romantic Aspen trips are simple: a sleigh ride to dinner in the Castle Creek Valley, the top of the gondola at the end of the day, a day at the hot springs, a spa, and one night where dinner comes to you. We plan the days around each other and book what books out.
Prices and details are from our sourced guides, checked September 2026.

A private chef, candles, the fire lit.
We live here and know the restaurants and the people who run them: ask us for the table. Where to eat.
The hot springs escape, driven, robes in the car.
In winter, a horse-drawn sleigh ride to dinner at Pine Creek Cookhouse; in summer, Maroon Lake at sunrise.
Pine Creek Cookhouse's sleigh dinner was $195 per adult ($235 December 21 to January 5), before drinks, service and tax.
Yes. We plan the days, book the tables and experiences that sell out, and arrange a chef, flowers or a photographer if you want them.
What we arrange for couples.

A birthday, an anniversary or a proposal, marked properly without organising five vendors in an unfamiliar town. Flowers on the table, dinner cooked at the house, a cake from an Aspen bakery, and, if you want them, music and a photographer. You walk in and it is simply there.

Dinner at the house, menu agreed in advance.

Leave your hotel or house mid-morning with nothing to carry. A private car takes you down the valley to the springs, with robes, towels and cold water waiting in the back. Soak for as long as you like, have a slow lunch in Glenwood, and come home to a massage and dinner at the house.
