Ashley Lynch, General Manager – Ashley Lynch came to RVR in 2022 after nearly 13 years in hospitality in the Aspen/Snowmass area. Prior to joining the team he had been working for Marriott International, managing the St. Regis Aspen. The RVR Board selected Ashley following a three-month nationwide search, based on his operational strengths in finance, budgeting, project management, customer satisfaction, and problem-solving.
Ashley has a bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications from the Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro. He graduated cum laude, then embarked on a career in hospitality management that took him to Seattle, Portland, Alaska, and Jackson Hole, Wyoming, before arriving in the Roaring Fork Valley, where he’s been since 2009. Over the years Ashley has developed a deep appreciation of the outdoors, which is where you’re likely to find him on his days off.
He lives just down the road in the Prince Creek area of Carbondale with his wife, Cara, and their two daughters. In his spare time, Ashley enjoys mountain biking and skiing. You might run into him if your out and about on the Prince Creek trail system.

Travis Green, Facilities & Grounds Superintendent- After growing up in Grapevine, Texas – a suburb of Dallas, Travis pursued his interests in nature and ended up studying at Colorado Mountain College in Glenwood Springs.
Travis got his AA degree from CMC in 2005, with the goal of learning the landscaping business. That year, he started working for a friend’s company in Carbondale, then began his own company – Green Landscapes – in 2011. Travis’ company, which he runs in addition to his duties at RVR, does installation and maintenance on residential and commercial properties all over the Roaring Fork Valley. He meets clients before and after his work at RVR.
In 2020, Travis joined the RVR team. He is responsible for the maintenance of RVR’s irrigation and landscaping. He oversees a crew, and enjoys a mix of hands-on work and leading his team. He’s working to create a more sustainable RVR landscape that uses fewer resources, less water, and less energy to create a better product.
Travis recently completed training to become QWEL certified – that means he’s a Qualified Water Efficient Landscaper, with a focus on efficiency and sustainability. He’s eager to put this learning into practice at RVR.
Travis lives in New Castle along with his wife, Chelsea, and two young children Sadie and Etta. In his spare time, he enjoys hockey, snowmobiling, rafting, camping, traveling, skiing, and snowboarding with his family. Somehow, he finds the time to be a snowmobile guide in the winters at Sunlight Mountain, where he’s worked for the past 15 years in various roles – from lift operations to horse tours to brush-cutting trails.
