A Hidden Gem in a Hidden Gem Location

Welcome to New Castle — a peaceful town often overlooked, yet perfectly positioned in the heart of the Roaring Fork Valley. From here, you’re less than 15 minutes to Glenwood Springs, yet worlds away from the crowds. The drive itself is a breathtaking journey along the Colorado River, with dramatic canyon walls and sweeping mountain views.

Step inside the condo, and you’ll quickly see why guests call it a hidden gem within a hidden gem. From the outside, it may look like a simple mountain condo, but the moment you walk through the door, the space uplifts your spirits with warmth, thoughtful design, and comfort. It’s a mountain retreat where the Grand Hogback Mountains feel like they’re hugging you back.
