Western Slope Cozy Cottage - Home Away From Home

Our lovely cottage is ready and perfectly located to explore all that the Grand Junction area has to offer. This relaxing space is fully equipped to be your 'base-of-operation' while in town. We are conveniently located just off Hwy I-70, 3 miles to GJ Regional Airport and Colorado Mesa University; 2.5 miles to VA Medical Center; 7 miles to Mt. Garfield; 18 miles CO National Monument; 36 miles to Powderhorn Mt. Resort @ Grand Mesa.

Our home is prepared and outfitted to comfortably serve four people.

This is our home 4-6 times a year when visiting our Grand-child and family that live in Grand Junction, so we have lovingly remodeled the space and take great pride in opening up the accommodations for you and your family to enjoy as much as we do.

Parking is provided for up to two cars and the only authorize spaces are located parallel to the front door. Please do not park anywhere else on the property since it is a shared easement.

The furnishings are all new. The decor is eclectic-western. The beds are delightfully dreamy and comfortable. The A/C and furnace have all been refreshed and automated (NEST) to keep you cozy no matter what the temperature is outside.

Cleanliness is our number one focus for your experience and we achieve this through the use of a professional service that shares my standards.

There is a full kitchen, stocked with all the hardware required to prepare meals, and a stackable washer/dryer if you need to do a load before you head out.

The property was small, functional, VERY clean, had plenty of comforts to feel like a short term home while I visited my Son and his little family. The property owner checked in with me to see if everything was ok and if I needed anything. That added the touch of being taken care of knowing I was traveling alone. THANK YOU! I highly recommend this property!

Convenient and cozy

We were in town for 5 nights for an event at Cameo. This was perfectly located near 70 Business for easy access to the highway or a short hop to the downtown restaurants. The property was clean and check out was easy-peasy. No issues during our stay and would go back again.

Great home base for our stay

We stayed for our daughter’s graduation from college - most relatives were at hotels but it was nice to have a place with a kitchen and a couch to chill together with our kids in between events. It’s a bit in the commercial area, but inside is very quaint and the white noise makers and black out curtains made sleep peaceful and cozy.

Another Outstanding Stay – Even Better the Third Time!

This was our third visit, and once again, everything exceeded expectations. The cottage is consistently clean, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. The host goes above and beyond to make us feel welcome—communication is always quick and helpful. It's clear they take great pride in maintaining a high standard. The little touches, like fresh towels and thoughtful amenities, make it feel like a home away from home. We’ve made this our go-to spot for a reason, and we’re already looking forward to the next stay. Highly recommend!

The property lived up to its name—Cozy Cottage! The decor was very welcoming, and I had everything I needed. It is right on the street, but there is plenty of parking right in front of the cottage, and it was super easy to get in and out. The hosts reached out multiple times to make sure I was settled in and to see if I needed anything. It was the perfect home base!

Great stay

I came with two kiddos- a teen and 1yo. Very well Organized. Check in and check out was very easy and self. Serve with a key. We had a small little hiccup with the heat in one of the bedrooms and they provided a space heater that same day very quickly! The towels are so soft and fluffy. There IS a pack n play also there to use.

I stayed at this cottage back in November last year and fell in love with it. The space is comfortable, cosy, and offers everything you would need for a stay. Everything is within such easy driving distance too. This will always be my first choice for somewhere to stay in Grand Junction.

Comfortable home with enough space for my Mum and I. Had everything we needed. It is on a busy road with some road noise but not enough to be an issue for us. Great location with lots of places to eat within a mile or less. Will stay here again. Thanks Mike and Joni!

Great place! It was exactly what I needed and location was perfect. Everything was smooth but I had a personal challenge upon check out and property owner could not reach me. My phone was damaged and I couldn’t check out on time. He was amazing about everything and I never gave him a proper thank you!!! Thank you for everything hopefully I will go back there next year.

Attentive to details!

The cottage was cozy for us and our 2 adult daughters. The sofa bed mattress was the MOST comfortable pull out mattress we have ever seen. We usually don't put too much hope in those and it was amazing! The location was ideal for us to explore Grand Mesa, Palisade, and the Monument. The 4 stars for the neighborhood was walkability & road noise. This would have been a bigger issue possibly at a different time of the year, but because it was 100+ temps each day we tended to stay inside when we returned from our days' activities. :) The price was great and the hosts are thoughtful. I really appreciated the communication and attention to details. (Having some spices in the kitchen, cleaning supplies, and shampoo, etc. in the bathroom makes it convenient for travelers!) Mike checked in throughout the week making sure everything was ok. We are thankful for a good week with our daughters.

Base camp

It was very clean, very easy check in and a great location for the West side of Colorado areas of interest. So if your looking to see Moab, Arches, Canyonlands, Telluride etc this is a good base camo location. As for the the 4 stars neighborhood that was because it can be quite nosey with the vehicles passing by in the main road. After around 10 pm it seems to quite down. I would recommend this this place as a great place to stay. Thank you and for the hospitality.

Quaint

We visited GJT for our grandsons graduation. We were in and out as family lives in Fruita. We enjoyed our 2 youngest grandchildren hanging out for a overnight. Everything you need. Far better than a hotel. Only suggestion bring your pillows. The main bedroom pillows were not very comfortable. We did find 2 in the 2nd bedroom closet and slept better. Zero complaints. Close to everything as GJT is just down the hyw.

My mother & I came for a week to be there for my grandson’s, her great grandson’s, first birthday. Your home was conveniently located just a few blocks from my son’s place & not far from restaurants and everything else we needed. We appreciated that your place came with a grill too as we used it a couple of times. We came from ND and loved the western decore of your home! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home!
