The Desert Moon- A luxurious retreat w/ amazing patio, shuffleboard, EV charger
Relax and unwind after a day of adventure on the Western Slope with all of the amenities the Desert Moon has to offer. Situated perfectly in a quiet neighborhood, The Desert Moon is a short hike or ride away from the majestic Colorado National Monument, rafting the Colorado River, biking on the Kokopelli trail, hiking the McInnis Canyons, skiing at PowderHorn, or the many shops, restaurants, wineries and breweries of downtown Fruita, Grand Junction and Palisade. Plug your electric vehicle into the Phase II 50 amp Chargeport EV Charging Station in the heated, 3-car garage featuring bike racks and bicycle repair station. Step inside to your private oasis and find a fully equipped Chef's Kitchen with coffee and cocktail stations. Relax and read on the mid-century lounger next to the gas fireplace or recline back and take in a movie on the 65" smart tv with Bluetooth sound system. Challenge your partner to a game of shuffleboard under the neon lit moon. Step outside and take in the fresh air on the expansive patio and cook an epic bbq meal on the 4 burner Weber grill. Enjoy the covered, outdoor dining area, equipped with ceiling fan and roll-down shades with lounge area and propane fire pit. Explore the nightscape as the glittering array of stars and moon bounce off the Colorado National Monument with the in-house telescope. Draw a warm bath, drop in the lavender bath salts, pour a glass of wine and light a candle in preparation of settling into the luxurious beds to rest up for another day of adventure. 2 dog max (with prior approval.)

Our stay at The Desert Moon was absolutely wonderful! We stayed for my daughter's graduation from Mesa.The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The Kitchen is well stocked, the beds are very comfortable, the patio is so relaxing, and it is a very quiet neighborhood. The host was accommodating, responsive, and truly made sure our experience was seamless. We couldnât have asked for a better stayâhighly recommend and would definitely return!
Very well equipped kitchen, lots of linens, relaxing deck (quiet upscale neighborhood, but it is a neighborhood). The deck is the only second living space. We enjoyed the race activities of the weekend, Colorado National Monument, and the sweet downtown of Fruita. What a beautiful area to visit!
We had an amazing stay at the Desert Moon. The home was not only beautifully designed and well equipped, but also perfectly located just a couple of blocks away from our family, which made everything so convenient.The space was more than enough for our entire family to spread out and feel comfortable. From the fully stocked kitchen to the cozy gas fireplace and outdoor patio with a fire pit, every detail was thoughtfully designed to make the stay relaxing and enjoyable.We especially appreciated the quiet neighborhood, the proximity to local trails and attractions. The shuffleboard table and telescope were such fun extras.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend the Desert Moon to anyone visiting the Fruita or Grand Junction area.
We were in Fruita for a family Christmas and this was the perfect place for extra guests my daughter didnât have room for in her home there. It had all the amenities we needed, was in a quiet neighborhood, and such a beautiful home we felt very comfortable coming âhomeâ to each evening.
This is a great property. The location is in a nice neighborhood but close to downtown Fruita and all the western slope trails. This is one of the nicest houses that I have rented during any of my trips. We definitely would recommend this rental.
We had so much fun at this beautiful, open, spacious home! The patio is a great place to have coffee in the morning or spend evenings relaxing with friends/family. We will definitely be back!
We had a great stay at Desert Moon! Beautiful home and fantastic location for Adventure Fest. Communication was great. House was spotless and had everything we needed.
We spent a fantastic weekend in Fruita meeting sort of in the middle between California and Iowa. The home was well organized and we felt so welcome. We will stay here again.
Hose was stunning the amenities are comfortable and we had everything we needed. Beds are very comfortable and the master shower is amazing. Kitchen is huge and the seating is comfortable inside and out. Loved the patio! I would definitely stay here again!
This was the cleanest vacation rental I have ever stayed at-I am very picky! The entire property is beautiful and the owners have given careful consideration to every detail. As a former general manager of a vacation resort in Colorado, I can assure you this property is wonderful and managed properly. The neighborhood is quick and safe. Will definitely be back.
This home is in a great location, the beds are comfortable, all the necessary goodies are provided for cooking a meal here, and I really enjoyed the lunar motif. Leaving directly from this house, it is easy to get in a good cycling tour of the area, both out on farm roads and cruising around town and the neighborhoods. Also, McInnis Canyons Natâl Conservation Area was a great hiking spot. We would stay here again!
Very nice, newer custom home in quiet neighborhood. It's much larger than what it looks like in the listing. Beds were quite comfortable, kitchen was sweet. Homeowners were very helpful & responsive. We stayed for 8 nights and greatly enjoyed our time there. Highly recommend!
Awesome property! Clean and they got all these small details covered from a stocked kitchen, phone chargers by every bed side, patio w/ BBQ and bike stand & racks in the garage. Weâll be back next year.
I'm a Colorado native and live on the Western Slope with my wife and son. We love biking, hiking, fishing, and exploring the wonders of the west. We've owned a brewery, restaurant and music venue and pride ourselves in thinking about the little touches that define true hospitality. We hope you enjoy your stay!
