Grand JunctionColorado's Western Slope hub at the foot of the Colorado National Monument and the 11,000-foot Grand Mesa — Palisade wine country fifteen minutes east, Lunch Loops mountain biking five minutes south, and Moab two hours west

Grand Junction sits at the foot of the Colorado National Monument on the confluence of the Colorado and Gunnison Rivers — Colorado's largest Western Slope city at 4,583 feet, with the desert canyons west of town, the 11,000-foot Grand Mesa east, and the Palisade wine country along Highway 6 in between. The Colorado National Monument's 23-mile Rim Rock Drive climbs from the Fruita entrance through the Independence Monument and Coke Ovens overlooks; the Grand Mesa Scenic Byway climbs Highway 65 from Mesa to Powderhorn Mountain Resort and the 300 lakes of the mesa top. Downtown Main Street's three-block pedestrian Art on the Corner runs from the Avalon Theatre to the Mesa County Library; the year-round Saturday Farmers Market is the largest in Western Colorado.

Our Grand Junction rentals run from the historic-downtown bungalows and lofts a block off Main Street (walking distance to the Avalon Theatre and the Saturday Market), to the Redlands ranch-style homes on the foot of the National Monument with red-rock rim views, to the Fairway and Tiara Rado golf-community condos, to the larger Beatrice Estate-class group homes on the southern Redlands bench. The city is the Western Slope's lowest-cost-per-night base — most properties run roughly 40–55% under Aspen-base condo rates for the same layout, with year-round availability and no peak-week minimums outside Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends.
