The Aspens (Jackson Hole Racquet Club)
The Aspens | Jackson Hole | Parker Bertles Real Estate
Developed in the early 1970s, the Aspens (originally the Jackson Hole Racquet Club) is the "soul" of the Westbank. It was the first major residential project outside the ski resort and remains a unique woodsy enclave defined by mature trees and a "local-meets-visitor" atmosphere. The neighborhood is unique in Teton County for its Resort District zoning, which allows for short-term rentals (STRs) of both condominiums and single-family homes. This makes the detached homes in the Aspens a true "unicorn" for buyers seeking a large family residence that can also function as a high-performing luxury vacation rental.
The inventory is comprised of approximately 85% condominiums—organized into clusters with botanical names like "Berry Patch" or "Balsam"—and roughly 15% detached single-family homes located primarily on the "Back Loop." While the condos offer a high-density, social environment, the single-family homes feel like a distinct neighborhood, offering heavily wooded privacy within walking distance of the commercial core. This core functions as a mini-village, housing the Aspens Market, Persephone Bakery (best chocolate-chip cookies in town!), and the historic Austrian restaurant, Stiegler’s. For families, the Aspens offers a rare walkable freedom, allowing children to safely bike to the market or playground without ever encountering a major highway.
