Stop in Grand Junction to get groceries before heading to the Mesa. Nice little country store but lacking a large assortment of goods.

House was great and views were beautiful. Will definitely book again next time we’re in the area. The only downside we were really looking forward to the hot tub but it was very green so we didn’t get in.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property! The home had every amenity we could need, making it both comfortable and relaxing.The setting was peaceful and private, yet still close enough to Grand Junction. We especially loved the amazing views and spacious kitchen. Not to mention the deer and other wildlife we saw1Our host was fantastic—communicative, welcoming, and attentive to details that made our stay special. You can tell they truly care about creating a great experience for their guests.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a getaway!

Beautiful home and property with very accessible location. About 15 minute drive to trail hike near the Mesa, which is great in the summer because it may be 90 in Palisade but you can hike in 50 weather at the Grand Mesa elevation. About a 25 minute drive into Palisade for Vineyard hopping. The large backyard is fully fenced if you are bringing dogs. We enjoyed drinking coffee there in the mornings and watching them play. There are lots of trees around the property if you want to bring camping chairs, and find shade, but we also brought our canopy and popped it up over the back porch for sunnier times of the day. In the evenings, don’t miss the sunsets… It’s spectacular! You might even see the neighborhood bear. He’s cute. A few notes if you are traveling with dogs. There is a lot of foxtail grass/seeds throughout the property. Be sure to check in between their toes and ears at the end of the day. Our dogs do not have the type of fur that mats, but if you have those types of furry friends, you might want to shave them before you come, or the foxtail seeds will stick to them. Also, while there is a small stream/creek running through the property, we did not use it because the grass is pretty high all around it and you have to walk downhill a ways to access it. There is a small wooden bridge you can stand on over the water which is pret. We had thought we might let our dogs swim but it just wasn’t set up for that. But they had plenty of fun swimming at all the Mesa lakes!

This place is a gem. If you plan to visit Grand Junction or Palisade don’t let the distance from Mesa sway you. The host is has thoughtfully stocked with premium bedding and bath items. Great back yard. Great kitchen with anything you might need. Will definitely recommend and plan to return.
