Nice little house on a great lot

We rented the house for a family Thanksgiving. The place was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The weather wasn’t great so we did not get to use the outdoor spaces very much but they were well done and comfortable. Highly recommend this place.

Perfect house for some middle aged guys looking to ride bikes in the desert for a bit. Close enough to walk to downtown but far enough to walk off all those middle aged aches and pains on the way.

Simply Perfect

The home was perfect for our stay while our son was playing in the Juco World Series. The home is fully stocked and has everything you need for your stay. The location is perfect, short walk to the adorable town of Fruita for all sorts of fun things. We also enjoyed the Colorado National Monument, the Mesa Scenic Bypass and even a short trip to Utah. Highly recommend this property.

Fantastic Stay

We loved this house and the location. Super short walk to downtown shopping and restaurants. The sleeping arrangements were perfect for us and our three kids. Everyone had a bed which means everyone got along. The lack of door on the upstairs bathroom took some getting used to but we managed. The management company was the perfect combination of checking in to make sure we were happy and then leaving us to enjoy our stay. Thanks for a wonderful week!

Elk hunting trip for the boys/shopping for the girls.

The is the most darling house. We loved everything about it. Communication was like texting my best friend. Super easy. Super clean. Location great. Very well stocked. Our dogs were welcome but you couldn't tell that a dog had ever been in the home. If we go back to this location this is the house I will look for again!

Loved Fruita

An eleven day family Christmas get-away was our daughter’s idea, and we are so happy she chose Fruita and one of the Ladybug houses. The beds were comfortable, not firm, not soft, somewhere in-between. Plenty of spices and dishes and cooking appliances. We loved the short walk to the “circle” of town, shopped for presents at the downtown stores, shopped at the local market and met many locals who were so friendly. Went to “Junction” (as the locals call it), hiked to Rifle Waterfall, and went to Colorado National Monument. This location was perfect.

Fall in the Grand Valley

We live on the Front Range but have family that have grown up and currently live in the Grand Valley. This time of year is always fun - from Fruita Fall Fest to Color Weekend up on the Mesa. This house has been a favorite for us as it sits in a convenient area of town and has always provided comfort for us. Our biggest complaint? When we find that the home is not available when we would like to rent it! We will always try to book here first when we visit The Valley!

We loved our stay in Fruita, and were especially impressed with this property. My son commented that this is the first vacation rental that felt like home.

The perfect house for a family visiting Fruita. Such welcoming and super responsive hosts. And so dog friendly too! The house is a super short walk to downtown Fruita including restaurants, bike shops, coffee shops, and grocery stores. Perfect accommodations for any family looking to ride bikes in Fruita or just visit the area. We will be back next spring!
