This place is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The hosts were very friendly and responsive. It is away from the hustle and bustle but a short drive to pretty much anything you could want/need. Unfortunately we didn't get to spend too much time here because we had a wedding to go to. But we would love to stay here again when we can spend time and enjoy the retreat! We will definitely be back.

Best vacation ever!
From the moment we arrived till we left was an absolute dream. Our family loved the stay at this house. Everything was as needed to make the most out of our trip. We cooked steaks one night and the kitchen was perfectly set up to do so even with spices and great knives too. The owner gave a great recommendation to try the Mcleans peach icecream- HUGE hit! beads are very comfortable and the space was everything we needed and more.

Relaxing Quiet Spot in Clifton
Very relaxing location with pond in back yard. Huge backyard patio area for grilling and relaxing around fire pit. Owner was very responsive regarding couple of minor issues that came up. Kitchen was loaded with dishware adequate for a large group. Owner needs to request a container for recyclables however.

Great family gathering in the country
We gathered at this property with several generations. The individual bedrooms with private bathrooms was an awesome feature. The beds are comfy. The views here are beautiful, the pond was such a fun aspect. We spent a lot of time hanging out both indoors and outside. Everyone in our group was very pleased with this property. They kitchen was well stocked and there were lots of extra pillows, sheets, and blankets and towels. It was really peaceful and fun being in a farm setting. And hearing the frogs and peacocks at night and in the distance was really fun too. The host is very accessible and responsive and really want to you to enjoy your time there.

Great stay with friends
This location was a great spot to relax after days in and around Grand Junction and Colorado National Monument. Good spot to ride bikes from, accessing the bike trails and not on busy roads. Weather was a little colder outside than expected, but there was plenty of space inside for the group to hang out and utilize the kitchen and living room.

Beautiful views of the Bookcliffs, river, and East Orchard Mesa. Close to town but felt like a luxurious getaway. Comfiest beds and pillows, and be sure to spend time on the patios enjoying sunrises, sunsets, and the livestock.

Wine Weekend in Grand Valley
A very nice place for our Girls Wine Weekend. An en suite bathroom in every bedroom - such a BONUS! There was plenty of room for our party of four. Hanging out having food and wine on the the back patio overlooking the pond was a delight in the evening. We loved watching the cows near the house. Raoul kept in contact with us throughout to help us with our stay. We hope to stay here again next time we come to town.

Amazing Getaway
What a beautiful home with everything your family will need to enjoy each other and have a great spacious home to visit in. We were celebrating our new granddaughter and visiting her auntie, a student at Mesa State with our other kids. Top quality all around, the games, the linens, the VIEWS! Our host was available for any questions we had. Do yourself a favor, talk a bath in the Master Suite. Thank you so much and can’t wait to come back.
