Palisade River Ranch's Private Guest House ("Tally Ho") - Sleeps 8.
"Tally Ho" is our guest house located within our 100-acre private ranch. The space is fresh and bright, providing a year-round, comfortable and relaxing environment. Stay, enjoy the company of friends and family, and unwind in a natural and tranquil setting. The sleeping options are flexible, with one fixed Queen bed, one King that can be split into Twin XLs, a Twin or Queen option in the "Sunroom", and a Queen sofa bed in the main living area. There are two inviting bathrooms, including the master which has a separate shower and jetted spa tub which is perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine or for soothing tired muscles after an exhilarating day in the mountains. The open plan living area is equally well-suited to entertaining or to simply relaxing for a night in, and the kitchen facilities are equal to that of a typical family home. When not in use as a bedroom, the "Sunroom" is an ideal place to relax with a book or simply to enjoy the views of our special cottonwood tree, the birds and the deer that roam the fields leading down to the river. Tally Ho has a patio area, with seating, a fire pit to warm up those cooler evenings, a BBQ, and fantastic views. We also have an indoor storage area for bikes, kayaks, paddleboards and any other toys you'd like to bring with you.
Guests at Palisade River Ranch have access to the trails across the main property, to the river and riverfront, and also the 1500 sq ft deck and screened gazebo down at the river. The riverfront and deck are great areas to enjoy a BBQ or campfire, to play games and to generally enjoy the serenity of our stretch of the Colorado. For those interested in floating the river, we have excellent put-in/take-out access. Guests can also explore our 45-acre riparian habitat, which is a great place to see an array of wildlife. (NB - access to some areas may be limited by seasonal restrictions, private parties or other events, and is subject to guests' agreement to a liability waiver).

Location
Palisade River Ranch is a unique and tranquil property located adjacent to the Town of Palisade's Riverbend Park. It is only a 10 min cruise by bicycle along the picturesque Riverfront Trail to visit the Downtown area of Palisade and a 5 min walk to the event location for local events such a Winefest, Bluegrass and Roots Festival, and the Peach Festival. Our property sits amongst a variety of vineyards, wineries, orchards and other agricultural attractions, with easy access to the Fruit and Wine Byway, and direct access to the Riverfront Trail and the Colorado River. The adjacent Riverbend Park is off-leash dog-friendly, has an excellent frisbee golf course and is another great place to exercise or picnic. The area is full of outdoor activity and adventure opportunities, across alpine and desert environments, including some fantastic local hiking and biking trails. Guests can reach Powderhorn Ski Resort and the Grand Mesa in just over half an hour. Both locations provide countless opportunities to explore and to get involved with sports and activities across all seasons, including skiing and downhill mountain biking at Powderhorn with its new high-speed quad lift. The up-and-coming Town of Grand Junction is a stone's throw away, with its historic Downtown and Main Street and attractions for all ages and interests. Within half an hour to the east, guests can explore the spectacular National Monument and some more World-Class road and mountain biking routes and trails. Further afield, guests can reach places like Aspen, Glenwood Springs and Moab within 1 to 2 hours. Palisade and the Grand Valley is a welcoming "neighborhood", with a friendly and healthy vibe which draws people from all over the world - including us!
