Downtown Fruita! Modern 3-BR home with master suite & locked bike storage

Ashley’s hometown is Grand Junction, CO, and Dave’s roots are in Minnesota. Our extended family owns Redlands Fruit, a local orchard with peaches and other fruit. Ashley works in investor relations for a Minnesota company, and Dave is enjoying retirement after a career in IT in Minnesota. Our daughters are school age and keep us busy.

Our family operates one rental property in Fruita, CO with the goal of someday, God-willing, sending our two daughters to college.

Fruita gives small town a good name with its friendly faces and funky mountain town charm - and convenience of all the needed amenities. Walk from the Out West Nest to Fruita's summer activities, such as Thursday free outdoor concerts and Saturday farmers' markets. Outdoor adventures abound in Fruita: hiking and biking trails in the red rock desert country, rafting trips down the Colorado River, and ski / snowboard rental for a trip to nearby Powderhorn resort. Drive a couple miles to visit the local wineries and orchards of Palisade on the northeastern side of the Grand Junction valley. Spend an afternoon enjoying the shopping, dining and artwork in downtown Grand Junction, which is a couple miles away. Drive an hour and you are on top of the Grand Mesa at an altitude of 11,000 feet+, among pine forests and mountain lakes. Drive two hours west and you are in Moab and Arches National Park. Or drive two hours southeast and you are in Ouray with its famous hot springs situated in a stunning box canyon. The day trip options are endless!
