100 years ago, the awe-inspiring camps in the Adirondacks
gave city slickers relief from the stress of day-to-day life with the soothing tranquility
of the wilderness and offering of four season sport. This vision inspired community
developers Chaffin, Light and Wilhelm to create a special place to call home in the Aspen,
Colorado area. The result, with absolute certainty, is the finest community one could
possibly identify themself as a resident and member. The Roaring Fork Club, a private
fishing, golf and story book log cabin home community beside the banks of the Roaring Fork
River just a short drive from Aspen, CO. The log cabin homes offer an unparalleled real
estate opportunity and a wonderful place to call (second) home or home away from home. The
Log Cabin homes are of the finest quality you will find throughout the Aspen and Basalt
area. Each constructed home was made with the finest of finishes resulting in a simple yet
stunning rustic Colorado decor. Envy driven serenity, born out of lifestyles lived over a
century ago by the Porch Societies, has garnered much study and thus the Roaring Fork Club
is designed for simple transportation and doesn't allow automobiles.

heart of the Club. The Roaring Fork Club Member's Lodge is intimate, rustic and
reminiscent of fishing lodges of old with a timber facade and inviting porches akin
to a fairy tale. The cozy two-story Roaring Fork Club Member's Great Room makes for a
spectacular place to gather and reflect on the day's adventures. The veranda with a
wonderful view of the Jack Nicklaus designed golf courses' 18th fairway is the focal
point. The lodge also houses a vintner room, library with billiards, business facilities,
fitness as well as, the women's & men's Roaring Fork Club locker rooms. |

Please take your time in enjoying the information contained herein. You will discover a
dazzling array of wonderful cultural and sporting activities. Fortunately, Club Members
have reported difficulty making what will prove to be the toughest decisions one faces
while staying; choosing to fish from eight private stocked ponds or spend time on your own
private section of the Roaring Fork River with a fly you hand-picked from inside The
Club's Orvis authorized dealer and licensed outfitter. Decisions are
further hard to comeby as additional diveresions show themselves. This is a tough one;
playing the Roaring Fork Club's private Jack Nicklaus designed golf course and having to
choose from it's two unique experiences, one flowing in tandem with the properties rolling
hills and open native grass and wild flower filled meadows and the other winding alongside
the flowing river and amongst the Aspen and Evergreen filled woods. To further complicate
the compromise you'll undoubtedly face when choosing the memory you setout to create, the
list of activities only grows larger; snow shoeing to
vintners dinners, nature hikes, outdoor campfires, artists-in-residence, intimate dining
at one of three distinctively different restaurants, dinner parties and wine tastings, a
wide variety of ongoing children's activities such as Camp Roaring Fork, Popcorn Theatre,
Teen Night or attending the Club's 4th of July carnival celebration with a 30 minute
firework extravaganza. An easy way to avoid the angst associated with settling on which of
the above activities you wish to partake is by simply spending the day Fly Fishing
the Gold Medal Water below the Reudi Dam on the Frying Pan River
where the Roaring Fork Club holds one of only four highly coveted U.S. Forest Service
Permits.
