That's exactly what I did.
As a producer for the CNBC's prime-time series, "Secret Lives of the Super Rich," I've been in some of the most exclusive and expensive mega-mansions on the planet. But I was excited about this assignment because I'm a big Costner fan. Plus, over the phone, Costner's real estate broker, Amy Mottier, told me the star built a private baseball field on his property, an homage to his famous movie, "Field of Dreams." I was dying to see it and run the bases in person.
When I arrived in Aspen, one of the wealthiest zip codes in America (my first time there), the autumn foliage was at its peak and the drive to Costner's compound took my breath away. It may have also had something to do with the air: Aspen sits at about 8,000 feet above sea level.
The first glimpse you get of the estate is are the understated and highly secure front gates. (That's where I met Mottier, a friend of Costner's wife who was Aspen chic in tall leather boots and a custom Charlie Tweedle cowboy hat, some of which can cost thousands of dollars.)
From the gates, a private drive extends into a giant valley and Costner owns all of it. There's a forest of perfectly golden birch trees that collide with a wall of bold green pines at the bank of the Roaring Fork river that runs through the valley.
On the property, there are three lodges that can sleep 27, according to Mottier, and our tour started at the multi-level main home.
When you walk in it feels like you're entering a cozy Four Seasons lobby complete with a wood burning double-sided fire place.
Mottier called the aesthetic, "comfortable like grandma's house." It must be someone else's very wealthy grandmother she's referring to.
My first thought was that there are touches of Kevin Costner everywhere. The animal skin rugs and fur blankets reminded me of his movie, "Dances with Wolves."
In the master bedroom, a massive mountain lion is mounted above the bed.
I was kind of obsessed with the cat until Mottier asked, "Do you want me to show you the trap door?"
Clearly, yes, but before I could answer, Mottier was rolling up the carpet at the foot of the bed. It revealed a door in the floor boards that opened to a wooden staircase leading down to an incredible hot tub that overlooks the river and mountains. I literally gasped when she pressed a button that turned on a waterfall from the stone work over-head into the tub.
Why go to all the trouble to build a trap door? Simple, she said. Costner has a flare for the dramatic (plus it creates private access to the hot tub).
Even more amazing than the main house were the grounds. There are sledding hills and two ponds stocked with trophy trout. Then there's the lake house and the river house.
But all I wanted to do was go straight to the baseball field. Unlike in "Field of Dreams," the diamond is not bordered by cornfields. The view from home plate is of the golden forest and snow-capped mountains.
Costner's been in four baseball themed movies, so he's had lots of inspiration for designing the field of his own dreams. Massive speakers mean you can enjoy music from every base, an automated ball machine pitches strikes over home plate and stadium lighting that allows for games day or night.
I take a quick iPhone picture in front of the field and my tour is complete.
If you want a field of dreams selfie of your own, it's possible, but it's going to cost you; Costner rents the property with a one-week minimum stay that costs $250,000.

I spent 2 days at Kevin Costner's Aspen compound with its own 'field of dreams' - take a look inside | CNBC Make It.
There isn’t a home on earth worth that much money for only one week.
I drove by it last week. The campground “difficult campground” is about a mile away. $26 a night for a spot lol. 3.4 miles from Aspen.
I would rent it for my husband so he could play baseball on the field.
@@MrKtorca That’s Iowa! Lol
Does the 1/4 million a week include towels?
If you divide that between 8 millionaires it would be pocket money to them.
Hard times for a fair actor. No buddy left to give awards to but him.
I gotta up my life goals 🏡
Been there. Wouldn't fish the ponds but definitely fishing the river👍
So much for the secret entrance!
lol
Had opportunity to be there today. Sweet property
Yo Kevin, I'll take it.
Nevermind...waiting on season 4 of Yellowstone.
And it was worth the wait! :-)
Absolutely splendid, I have never seen such a beautiful home
Ce n'est pas Yellowstone, mais une très belle région. La différence avec ma petite maison est, qu'en face chez moi il y a la mer, mais nous ne jouons pas dans la même cour !
How about this, Kevin, the best 500 word contest about what living in the aspen valley means, true country love.
Now I can why people was wondering if the ranch on Yellowstone was his.
250,000 a week? Hard pass.
A labor of love and the interloper must pay for respect or a tribute to Kevin.
i've stayed here. this is so funny to watch this video
Beautiful 🔥
For the money...do I get to meet Costner...get an autograph..is there a chef for 3 meals a day...housekeeping...or is it just...oooohhhh....I stayed at kevin Costner ranch....
I suppose what you wanted , contact and ask?
That is beautiful.
RIP, you will be truly missed. Condolences to all your family.
Wow this place looks amazing 😍 so beautiful ❤️
LIFE IS A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY AND AMAZING JOURNEY.IT MUST BE APPRECIATED AND CELEBRATED HAPPILY HOPEFULLY AND ABUNDANTLY
He's not exactly the character he plays on Yellowstone is he🤣
Beautiful picture
Hello Karen thanks for your comments and support I really do appreciate merry Christmas 🎄
Got a half pack of chewing gum, and my 91 NBA Hoops card collection. This should give me a week and a half of stay time at the cabin.
Let me know I’ll think about it. 😀
Your cards are worth no where near that
Wow very beautiful place
Well let’s Go. You PAY!!!
Caro kevin per me sarebbe un sogno passare una giornata con te . Sei il mio attore preferito, il mio uomo ideale. Ciao mio grande Amore
😂😂😂😂🤣🙃❤️😎 Io potrei portare le valigie? Mi basterebbe ❤️ lo adoro.
That is a million dollars a month. Good Lord
How do I get a job as care taker or house manager? Lol no seriously.
🙃🙃🙃🙃❤️😎😂🤣Arrivooooooo
His career has been over since last 2 decade. From where he makes such money?
deepak mahajan hey deepak where you recommend here 😂😂😂😂🤔
deepak mahajan I love woznaicki
@@101poumi I guess we people share same likes expect d player lol
deepak mahajan I’ve got recommended in this video
@@101poumi same hereeee
If people are silly enough to pay that,good luck to Kevin
Trophy trout....LOL, it was 5 inches and under a pound. Much like Kevin's doinger.
For five free days.
LMAO what a delusional actor, he thinks staying there for a week is worth 250,000
Either that or he really doesnt want people to rent it but listing it as a rental allows some sort of tax deduction.
Sign of the times. The rich and famous renting out their homes... The only reason to do this is because one is strapped for cash. Proof that the more you earned the more you spend, leading to having to rent our homes, give up our privacy for a few dollars. The great United States of America, what a joke.
Javier Harth
He’s worth 500 million. He’s hardly strapped for cash
The greatest thing about the United States of America is that we don't give a $hite what you think.
Russian oligarchs not allowed to rent it.
Why doesn't Dances with Wolves donate it to Indian tribes?
🤣
has donated more than $350,000 to Native American causes since 1992
That is pittance …
@@ettaplace6716 well if every American would just donate
$100 it would make things better for native Americans , I think Kevin has done his share for one person,☝️
Apparently, most people haven't watched Yellowstone. Probably the best series on tv. I don't think Kevin Costners worried about money at all. The idiots that put those comments on here are just jealous haters. Its rented at a level where idiots like you can only dream of it. As it should be. I wouldnt trade the T Lazy 7 for it on Maroon Belles Rd.
Really? Your dreaming of being able to rent it and you know it. You said your a fan of Yellowstone so I assume you like Kevin Costner lol.
