Snowmass is where elite athletes, active adventurers and family fun come together to form the ultimate mountain playground. Just eight miles from Aspen, Snowmass Village offers a more relaxed, family-friendly alternative to its glamorous neighbor—without compromising on world-class skiing, trail access, or alpine beauty.
Active, welcoming, and built for year-round living.
Snowmass Village revolves around its namesake ski resort—the largest of the four Aspen/Snowmass mountains. But this isn’t just a winter destination. In summer, the area comes alive with concerts, mountain biking, festivals, and events that give it a lively, local energy. Think après ski without the scene, and mountain-town living with just the right amount of polish.
Outdoor-loving families, second homeowners, and full-time locals alike.
Snowmass Village has a strong sense of community, bolstered by longtime residents, town-subsidized employee housing, and a growing population of young families. You’ll also find second homeowners who are drawn to the mountain access, new luxury residences, and more laid-back pace compared to Aspen.
In Old Snowmass, the community is more rural—comprised of ranchers, longtime locals, and part-time residents who value privacy, nature, and sweeping views of Capitol Peak.
Big mountain adventure and small-town convenience.
Snowmass is an all-seasons playground. In winter, enjoy 3,300+ acres of skiable terrain. In summer, swap your skis for a mountain bike and explore the Snowmass Bike Park, Lost Forest adventure zone, or 30+ miles of hiking and biking trails. There’s also a full calendar of events, including the beloved Thursday Night Concert Series and various summer festivals.
The Snowmass Recreation Center and Snowmass Club offer year-round amenities including pools, tennis, nordic trails, fitness facilities, and more. And thanks to a free bus system, everything is easily accessible without the need to drive.
In Old Snowmass, leisure takes a quieter form—long rides along Capitol Creek, hikes into the wilderness, and mornings spent sipping coffee with views of open meadows and 14,000-foot peaks.
Casual, cozy, and great for families and locals.
From Base Village hotspots to mall favorites, Snowmass offers a variety of restaurants that range from slopeside sushi and wood-fired pizzas to hearty mountain fare and après drinks. Many are locally owned, and late-night menus and live music keep the vibe lively and welcoming.
A mix of ski-in/ski-out luxury, townhomes, and tucked-away retreats.
Snowmass Village: Offers everything from employee housing and mid-range townhomes to high-end condos and expansive ski-access estates. Recent development in Base Village has added sleek new condos and townhomes perfect for second homeowners or investors.
Old Snowmass: Known for its pastoral feel and privacy, with large acreage, horse properties, and custom estates tucked into scenic valleys. Subdivisions like Little Elk Creek and Gateway are popular with full-time families and offer a true neighborhood feel.
A quieter version of mountain living—with room to explore.
Whether you're soaking in views of Mt. Daly, letting the kids run wild at Base Village, or riding horses through Old Snowmass meadows, this corner of the valley offers a pace and perspective that’s easy to fall in love with. It’s all the access to Aspen’s culture and recreation—without the intensity.
