About the host

Hosted by Kristy and Mike Driver

Host profile image
Kristy and Mike have been providing property management services for luxury properties for the past 30 years. We fell in love with the Fruita area because of it's year round sunshine and abundance of outdoor activities. Our goal is to make your stay with us 5 stars!

Why they chose this property

We built the Guest House in 2008 on 5 acres of property just outside of the Fruita City limits. The home is perfectly situated to maximize the views of the Colorado National Monument. We enjoy the wide open space, no neighbors and yet just 5 minute drive to town. The houses are surrounded by green grass all summer and makes the hot summers feel cooler.

What makes this property unique

Spread out on five private acres with Monument views, a fire-pit patio, BBQ, fast Wi-Fi, smart TV, full kitchen, bikes, and pet-friendly space—just minutes from the Colorado National Monument and top trails.
