Aspen Townhomes

The Resort and Its Setting

Aspen Townhomes is an independent timeshare resort at 17 Country Club Dr in Red Lodge, Montana, affiliated with RCI for exchange purposes. It's listed on Google as lodging, with a 3.7/5 rating from 15 reviews — a modest number that reflects its small, local character rather than a large resort complex. Red Lodge itself is a historic former mining town set into the Northern Rockies, with the kind of unhurried, walkable main street that appeals to owners who want a genuine mountain-town base rather than a resort bubble.

The Area and Things to Do

Red Lodge is best known as the gateway to the Beartooth Highway, one of the most scenic drives in the country, winding up into alpine terrain toward Cooke City before it closes for the winter (typically October to May). Red Lodge Mountain Resort, about 9 miles away, offers skiing in winter and lift-served biking and scenic chairlift rides in summer. Closer to town, the Red Lodge Historic District has galleries, local restaurants and shops built around the old mining-era architecture. Outdoor-minded owners also have the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness for serious hiking and backcountry camping, and Rock Creek for fly-fishing, both within a short drive.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Aspen Townhomes and want to list it for resale or rent on BidMyTimeshare, the process is owner-to-owner: you set your own asking price, pay a single one-time listing fee to publish it, and keep 100% of whatever it sells or rents for, with 0% commission. Interested buyers and renters contact you directly through the platform, so you stay in control of the conversation and the final price.

Because Aspen Townhomes is an independent, RCI-affiliated resort rather than a branded chain property, resale transfers are typically handled through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a corporate resale desk. Specific transfer fees, any right of first refusal, and current annual maintenance fees for this resort aren't published figures we can confirm here, so before agreeing a price, ask the seller (or the resort directly) for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee in writing. A resale buyer should also confirm in writing exactly what transfers with the week — the usage rights and RCI exchange eligibility — and whether any resort-specific benefits are excluded from resale, since this varies by property and is worth confirming before money changes hands.

What Renters and Buyers Look For

Renters and exchange guests coming to Aspen Townhomes are typically after a base for Red Lodge's seasonal activities — ski weeks in winter, hiking and fishing trips in summer, or a stop on a Beartooth Highway road trip. Buyers researching the resort will want to know the unit size and week/season being offered, whether the week is fixed or floating, confirmation that RCI exchange rights apply, and the current annual maintenance fee, since that ongoing cost affects the real value of any deal.

Practical Notes

Red Lodge has a genuine shoulder season either side of its two main draws — May/June and September/October bring smaller crowds and milder weather, while the Beartooth Highway's seasonal closure (roughly October to May) is worth building into any travel plan if that drive is part of the appeal. Mountain weather swings fast between the valley and higher elevations, so pack layers whatever the season. Anyone relying on RCI to exchange into or out of a week here should book well ahead during peak ski and summer periods, as exchange availability tightens up quickly at popular times.
