Description

Seeing the Snake River from the residence distinguishes Drift House along Jackson Hole's river corridor. Set on 42.6 acres in Solitude, the property features five private ponds, mature cottonwoods, abundant wildlife, direct river access, and panoramic Teton views. Designed by Jackson Hole architect Vince Lee, the home elevates its principal living spaces above the river bottom, capturing views of the Snake and Tetons. Private walking paths, fly fishing and access to Solitude's shared mile-plus river dike provide year-round recreation. Approximately 8, 960 square feet of total living space accommodates family and guests, including a private suite with independent exterior access. An established river-bottom setting that would be difficult to recreate today. ABOVE THE RIVER Many homes along the Snake River occupy the privacy and habitat of the river bottom, where mature cottonwoods and the dike can also conceal the river itself. Drift House is different. Its principal living spaces are elevated above the surrounding landscape, providing views across the property's ponds and cottonwoods to the Snake River and Tetons beyond. The residence occupies an established position overlooking the river corridor, creating both a visual and physical connection to the Snake River that distinguishes this property from many other riverfront estates. LIFE ALONG THE SNAKE The Snake River is as much an experience as a view. Fly fish its waters or the property's five private ponds, follow walking paths through the cottonwoods, or access Solitude's shared mile-plus river dike for walking and horseback riding. The opportunity to fish, explore the river corridor, and experience the changing seasons begins just outside the residence. This connection to the outdoors is central to life at Drift House. FIVE PONDS & A LIVING LANDSCAPE Five private ponds are woven into the property's 42.6 acres, connected by walking paths, bridges, flowering gardens, and established landscaping. Mature cottonwoods and extensive riparian habitat support abundant wildlife, including elk and other native species. The landscape changes as one moves through the property, from open water and mountain views to shaded paths, ponds, and the Snake River itself. Water is not simply a feature of Drift House. It shapes the experience of the entire property. ARCHITECTURE SHAPED BY THE SETTING Originally designed by Jackson Hole architect Vince Lee, the residence reflects an architectural approach centered on its relationship with the land. Rather than placing its principal living spaces at ground level, the home elevates the great room, dining room, kitchen, primary suite, and principal outdoor living areas above the river bottom. This arrangement captures views across the ponds and cottonwoods to the Snake River and Teton Range. Substantial log construction, expansive windows and natural materials establish the home's Western architectural character, while recent improvements introduce a more contemporary sensibility. LIVING ABOVE THE RIVER The great room and dining room occupy the upper level, where expansive windows frame the surrounding water, mature cottonwoods, and distant Tetons. Substantial log construction brings warmth and scale to the principal gathering spaces, while the adjoining elevated deck extends daily living outdoors. From morning coffee overlooking the ponds to evenings entertaining friends beneath the Tetons, the landscape remains an integral part of the experience. KITCHEN & EVERYDAY LIVING The kitchen and adjoining informal gathering spaces provide a more intimate setting for everyday life, complementing the scale of the principal entertaining rooms. Natural materials and substantial log construction connect these spaces to the original architecture, while updated interiors introduce a restrained, contemporary character. THE PRIMARY SUITE Positioned on the upper level alongside the principal living spaces, the primary suite offers privacy while maintaining a connect
